On Saturday me and my Daughter hopped on the train for a day out in Nottingham.
It feels like ages since we had a girly shopping day in Nottingham. We were off to buy something from my Daughter and Son for Mother's Day.
They asked me what I wanted and chocolates weren't one of them, this year 😉
A nice Spring outfit is what I had in mind.
Train selfie.
A must have on a day out on the train.
A shoe selfie.
Another must-have!
Nottingham's Council House and Old Market Square selfie.
My favourite spot for taking photos in Nottingham.
Pity the sun was not out.
Awkward!!
Is it just me who feels awkward when trying to take photos and everyone is looking!?
What I Wore:
Faux Fur Coat: c/o Marisota | Polka Dot Dress: George t Asda | Leggings: Primark | Black Patent Boots: c/o Sainsbury's | Bag: c/o Matalan.
Day Out In Nottingham: 40+ Style: Polka Dots and Patent Boots.
We had a fun day out and both came home with lots of goodies.
My Daughter picked me out some lovely bright green trousers with flowers on and a top to match for me and a nice floral maxi dress.
Photo's coming soon.
Watch this space.

Your hair looks a little different - I like it and your polka dots. You're my style guru. Stopping by always puts a smile on my face. #MMBC
ReplyDeleteAww, thanks for the lovely comment Carol :) I thought I would go short on the hair for a change.
DeleteIt sounds like you had a lovely day.
ReplyDeleteYou again look fabulous! I love that coat x #MMBC

DeleteHi, I love the polka dots and the cute boots. It looks like you had a lovely day out in Nottingham #MMBC
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
DeleteThis is such a fun dress and you've accessorized it beautifully. Hope you had a good day out and looking forward to seeing the new outfit.
ReplyDeleteThanks Christy. I am just waiting for it to stop raining :)
DeleteI've never been to Nottingham. The waterway looks lovely. It's so hard being photographed in a crowd isn't it?! Get an alter ego and give her a name ;O) xx
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a good idea. I am terible at trying to smile in a crowd. I always look angry, ha!
DeleteAdorable outfit! I just love that fun polka dot dress!
ReplyDeleteAww, thank you Laura :)
DeleteNottingham looks like a lovely place and I love that you and your daughter has such a close relationship to do day trips like these. Of course, with that said, I agree that selfies are a must. I do them all the time with my son I think he knows when I am slowly reaching for my back pocket! Nope, I am so awkward all the time when taking a photo. I especially turn into a hermit when there's a lot of people out! 😠Love your polka dot dress. The white and black color combo will always be a classic and what a great way to wear your patent black booties.

Hi Maureen, thank you for the lovely comment :)
DeleteThe polka dots are so cute!I use a tripod for my pics and sometimes get a few looks but for the most part I've learned to get over it and just get it done! Love your selfies....I have the hardest time getting a good one!

Thanks Jess. I hope you get to visit sometime :)
DeleteHow nice to spend the day with your daughter. You look so alike Claire!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm loving your outfit, you look amazing. I'm dead awkward having photos taken if people are about. My worst one is if you are in a restaurant and you need a shot of the food. I feel such a plonker hehe!
Thanks for sharing with #MMBC. x
Hehe, I feel like this Jayne, my Husband is not a fan of taking photos when people are watching to so extra hard work.
DeleteLooking fabulous as usual Claire. Hope you had a great time with your daughter. xx
