My goodness it's the first of June already
How time does fly
This month
I have a birthday party
A fortieth
My sisters friend
And it's in Cork
Which is the other end of the country
As you may know
I don't tend to go to a lot of social events
Partly because I don't drink
And partly because I'm usually in my pyjamas by 8pm
I guess I got all my partying done at an early age
I was just 14 when I started going to nightclubs
Then came the drug years
When I was out every night of the weekend
And when I wasn't out
I was taking drugs at home
So by the time I was 26
I was pretty much done with partying
I don't really venture out after dark now
I don't go to pubs anymore
I've done my time in nightclubs
I used to be a night owl
But I am definitely a morning person
now
So anyway
I have this party at the end of the month
So the hunt has been in to find something to wear
I had bought a pretty blue skirt and top to wear
But the weather is keeping so cold
That I don't think I am going to get a chance to wear that
So I've had to find something else
Here is what I've come up with......
Black leather jacket - Dorothy Perkins
Capri pants - Next
White t-shirt - River Island
Nude sandals- Fat Face
You look beautiful as always ruby :)
ReplyDeleteAw thank you hun x
DeleteGreat outfit Ruby! You'll knock em' dead!
ReplyDeleteff x
Thank you x
DeleteYou beautiful lady! I love seeing photos of you ^^ The outfit is definetley cute.
ReplyDeleteI seem to remember the other one you mention (didn't you make a post about it a while back?) If not I must be confusing it with another, but I seem to remember that it was uber cute as well, but who cares. You look amazing whatever you wear :D
I hope you have fun my dear, keep us posted ^^
Take care <3
Mandy xx
You are right I think hun
DeleteI did do another post about an outfit I was going to wear
It's just that the weather is so bad I've had to rethink it
Thank you for your kind words
Hope you are doing ok x
Ruby you look seriously awesome. You simply ooze style, you're incredible! And I am in love with your shoes...major shoe envy going on over here! Hope you have a fab time at the party, I know you'll find it hard, but hopefully you'll enjoy it once you're there. I'll be thinking of you Xx
ReplyDeleteWill do Annie
DeleteAnd thank you x
yes, well thats how i want to look. i can't seem to put things together for myself though, seem to spend longer and longer in my pj's. you look great ruubs ! jo xx
ReplyDeleteOh I love my pjs too jo
DeleteAnd spend an awful lot of time in them
I am dying to know what you look like
I have built up a picture in my head
I imagine you with dark hair
And pale skin
Very slight
And pretty
Am I anywhere near right? X
ooh,i will try email you a photo if i can work out how, got the dark hair right anyway, then you can see who you're talking to! xx
DeleteI like it!! And I'm kind of jealous; I could not pull off those trousers if my life depended on it. You look amazing in them though. I love the jacket.
ReplyDeleteGlad I'm not the only one in their pj's by 8. Sometimes by 6, to be honest.... I know what you mean, I started partying at 14 as well, and used to spend loads of time down the pub in my early 20s. I think I just burned out early. And I never liked the crowded pubs to begin with...
I'm the same
DeleteOnce evening comes
I'm itching to get into my pjs
We are such party animals lol!
I actually hate going out after dark
I do all my business in the morning
And by 9pm
I'm ready for bed! X
In your PJs by 8? Try being in bed (and usually asleep) by 8! We're true party animals.
ReplyDeleteI'm the same though. I did all of my partying before the age of 18. I've only been to one bar in my life, on my 19th, which ended badly... When I do drink socially, I'd rather stay in and watch movies and chat than go out in a massive group.
Very cute outfit! I love your style Ruby. The print on those pants is awesome.
xxxx
Thanks Bells
DeleteI love the trousers too
They're so comfy
To be honest
The jacket is a little snug
As I bought it when I was a lot thinner
But I think I get away with it..... X
I love the capris, Ruby! The whole look is great. It's the favorite of the outfits I've seen on you in the blog.
ReplyDeleteThank you my lovely
DeleteIt's one of my favourites too x
I love this outfit! It's so chic and stylish. And you totally pull it off. I'd look awful in it, but you look absolutely stunning. I want the shoes sooo badly. I don't think we have any of those brands/stores here in Canada. :(
ReplyDeleteBest wishes for the party.xxx
P.s I think you should show us the skirt outfit too! Just in case it warms up a bit.
I will hun
DeleteI know I will probably change my mind a hundred times before the party
So I will get you guys opinion x
I'm 22 and I feel like I've already got all of my partying out of my system. I really dislike socializing and I don't do it often... once, at most, twice a month will I go out. I prefer self-medicating myself at home in the company of music and dogs. Anyways...
ReplyDeletethat outfit is chic and sophisticated (but not too sophisticated). you should do your hair up really nice with that outfit and you're going to look like a hottie! lol x
I'm the exact same
DeleteWould much rather take my meds
And zone out in front of the tv with my dogs
Not good I know
But it's the lesser of a few evils right now
And thank you for the compliment x
I never really enjoyed partying much. I went clubbing once and didn't really enjoy it. I couldn't see what all the fuss was about.
ReplyDeleteYou look lovely as always Ruby, I hope you enjoy the party x
Thank you Anne
DeleteI will post about it for sure x
Getting dressed for a social outing is hell. Not too much, not too understated, what are the others wearing, should I wear jewellery, how much make-up, what about perfume...
ReplyDeleteNo worries, right :D
I can totally relate to that CP
DeleteThis party is hat themed
So I need to find one
My main thing is comfort
And if I look well
That's a bonus
But yes
Social events like this can be a pain in the ass
I'm still not entirely sure that I am even going to go..... X
