What I Wore

 The weather app lied.

So, instead of being toasty warm and dry in the cold, wet weather forecast I was a sweaty mess for much of my time in Glasgow. I had planned to share a jaunty "what I wore" but as it happens I ended up wearing basically the same thing, also I forgot to ask The Chap to take my picture.

So, for the sake of padding, and so you can see how generally awkward I am when trying to stand still here are some extra pics. 

I'm in our new, fancy menswear charity shop, about to buy the thing with the orange strap (a Patagonia bag) that's in my hand. If I look dumpy in any of these pictures, that's because I am. The trousers are new, everything else secondhand here. Trousers are from Roman, coat is originally Zara, jacket is Cos, shirt is Kew 159 (Vinted) tank top is Zara. The Cos jacket is my favourite item of clothing at the moment.

I'm loitering in Dalton Square, Lancaster. Wearing mainly new things, the only second hand things are the black polo neck that's not really visible, the green striped jumper (both charity shop) and my blue cross body bag (Vinted)

Here I am the day before the holiday loitering outside a church in Lytham in the rain. I take my hat off to influencers and others who have the energy to take nice pictures, edit them and generally make an effort. 

Almost everything is new here other than that same tank top, the bag was from Oxfam. Think everything else has been seen before other than maybe the Palladium boots.

Here I am in Glasgow, finally. I look excited because I can see an advert for crisps.

Everything is new here other than the blue bag (Vinted) and the gilet which was a last minute purchase from the charity shop. Other than that Finisterre/ Palladium boots, checked trousers from M&S as was the snoopy jumper, the incredibly warm coat is Regatta, or Trespass, one of those.

The trousers are no longer in my possession, I chucked them away before we came home. They're just too hard to wear, they're checked so everything else has to be plain, they're actually not that comfortable, mainly because of the third - and most important issue. They hate underwear, virtually impossible to have non-showing underwear in these trousers, which makes them faffy, which makes them not for me. 

After getting rid of the trousers I only had one other pair, so I just wore them the rest of time time. Imagine, if you can me in the same trousers but with a black polo neck jumper, and a burgundy polo neck jumper then the snoopy jumper again and there you have it.

Here I am, almost passing out from heatstroke in the botanic gardens. Look at my jawline there though, have I been mewing? Jumper is a pink version of the green one I wore in Lancaster (both RSPCA in Burnley) trousers M&S, everything else the same, watch was a birthday gift a classic Casio.

Things to work on - packing, and posing for photos.
