Week 21: A bit of pampering

Another one for the treat list this week and a bit of pampering with a long overdue back and shoulder massage and a facial.  Cancer treatments take it out of you to say nothing of the hormone treatment. 

Week 16: Got A Haircut!

Well, this might not seem like a big deal but when you've gone from being completely bald to having hair again, that first cut is another milestone on the road to recovery and knowing that you're through it and life is returning to normal.

One positive thing that's come out of this - I love my new shorter haircut and judging by the comments, so does everyone else.

Today I got styled!

Having a 'new' hairstyle, a little bit further into another decade and with a recent life-changing experience behind me - I needed a makeover or at least an update to my new 'look'.

Most people who know me are used to seeing me either in t-shirt and leggings, outdoor gear or occasionally something more business related when I'm out and about with work.  I definitely dress for comfort not fashion!

I booked a session with the lovely Janine at Sassy Style who came up with a few ideas to kick my wardrobe up a gear, how to add a splash of colour, as well as telling me what suits my body type from top to bottom.

I took along a few items from my wardrobe and was pleased to say that most of them met her approval but the important thing is I now know how to wear them and make more use of a few items I haven't worn for a while.

You get a very useful style board after the session to give you some ideas and act as a reminder of what we discussed as well as shopping tips - both what to shop for and wear to shop.

Great fun and definitely worth doing if you're looking for a new look or just want to update your wardrobe or find a party frock.

I will still be wearing t-shirt and shorts or leggings to do the gardening!
