Top is fab, skirt has great colours and pattern mix, and orange shoes, well what's not to love?<br /><br />I'm delighted that you've had an avalanche of positive comments. You deserve all of this lovely feedback. Thanks too for giving us an insight into your life, job and self. Not easy for an introvert I'm sure.

I am going to read yesterday's post now as I am curious. And your posts are hardly ever brief my dear. More like elaborate.<br />Love the orange shoes. And I was surprised to read that you are an introvert.

That is all too common and soooo boring because you see similar posts by numerous bloggers. You and one other Canadian are my favorites because y'all thrift, even though your styles aren't similar.

It sounds to me like you have a position that not only allows you the variety and creativity of how you dress, but also variety and creativity in how you carry out your position. To me that's the best type of job, because you are able to define it (to an extent) and there is enough going on to keep you from finding it dull! <br /><Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10896939296742508794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4115841618725638085.post-48500832420573799552016-02-04T15:55:40.383-08:002016-02-04T15:55:40.383-08:00Love your blog and your outfits!

You inspire me to be myself no matter what ( although as a 52 year old with less than a good figure I do find myself with less confidence than I wish I had). I just wish we had as many thrift stores this side of the pond as you guys seem to have.

The big one is that when you describe your work, Sheila, it sounds extremely important to your company. I think that administrative stars like you are the glue that holds organizations and businesses together.

(In comparison to you, I am a wall-flower, anyway!) I NEVER look at my stats - truly. I blog for self-expression. So, I have only very lately caught on that bloggers are losing followers.
