February Review.

Good morning everyone. 
How’s it going?
Welcome to my first blog post of the month and welcome to March!
This weekend really did seem like the beginning of Spring as the weather was so nice. Mind you, It was still really cold but working outside with the sun on my face was a real treat! David and I have still been cutting the hedge. It’s not as cut and dried as just cutting things down though, there’s raking, shredding and loading into a skip to contend with so on Saturday night we were both knackered!  We’re still following a Keto diet so decided on a cheeky takeaway again which I hasten to add was Keto friendly. On a very good plus side I’ve found out that Prosecco is one of the drinks that you can have on this diet, so long as calories are counted so I’ve been a happy bunny finding this out!  
I’m planning on a trip to the cinema to watch Bridget Jones - Mad About the Boy, however I embarrassed to admit I’ve not actually watched all the previous films only have I seen the first one a couple of times! I’m not even sure why to be honest, just not my cup of tea, but I’m suffering a bit of fomo so I’m binge watching all the films before I visit the local cinema in order to know just what’s going on in this one!! 😂

Sunday was a more relaxed affair, I helped my daughter out with her AirBNB and after David finished trimming the part of the hedge I couldn’t get to last year, we popped to Sainsbury’s to grab something for dinner. We came home with a small joint of beef and some veg that we roasted. He made a gravy that was fairly good (had to use 
Xanthan Gum - Keto friendly) so all in all it was a nice dinner and I was stuffed! I ended the evening with the last Bridget Jones film I’d missed!

Anyway back to this month’s review. 
I usually take a look back on what I shared over the previous month, so welcome and thanks for stopping by to read my ….
February Review. 

Back at the beginning of the month I shared this fancy jumper that’s covered in a beautiful collection of pearls. 
I’m sure this winter white look wasn’t the best choice for many of the days last month due to the wet weather, but I’m excited to think this month might be perfect for it. 


My next post featured late additions by way of the two outfits I wore over the previous weekend, one was for a party and the other a night out with David our daughter and her hubby. This was the party outfit and you can see my dinner choice here too!


My next post was all about a gifted cardigan, well it could be a jacket depending on when it’s worn and what the temperatures are like. For me I’m going with cardigan so I can put a coat or jacket over it as it’s still chilly. You can find out all about this elegant beauty from Izabel London here. 


Do you have a type of outfit to wear when you shop? If I know I’m going to try stuff on I opt for something like this shirt dress as it’s lightweight and fairly easy to get in and out of! This is what I wore for a trip to my local big M&S and you can view what my sister and I got up to here. You can see what jacket I popped on over this too!


Another party dress for me next. I went to another 60th and wore this striking maxi dress. I’m wondering if it’s too long or not and might have to trim it to make it shorter, what do you think of this embossed blue beauty?


Lovely Leather was the title of the prompt for my friends and I to create our looks. Style not Age certainly pulled out all the stops for this one and I’m chuffed at how marvellous we all look! You can see exactly what everyone chose for this post here. 


My final outfit for February really has gotten me in the mood for Spring. This gorgeous denim dress is going to be on repeat throughout the next few months as I’m smitten with it. It’s got everything I love from the length, sleeve style and relaxed feel. Do pop over and find out where you can buy your own my friends. 


Thanks so much for stopping by today, I love having your company. Don’t forget to come by again on Thursday for the new Linkup! Chicandstylish is brand new for the new month!
Catch you then,
Cheerio for now. X
