They're rare for me, I admit, but every now and again there's one of those days when you just know you look good and it makes you feel fabulous. I had one yesterday.
We got back from our holiday a few days ago, so I'm tanned. The sun was shining. I wore some lovely cropped denim trousers, cool shades, a new Dolce & Gabbana top, new Jimmy Choo sandals and carried my gorgeous new designer handbag. Ok, the top and shoes aren't as impressive as they sound - they're copies (albeit very good ones) from a Turkish market.
I met a friend for coffee, safe in the knowledge that Princess was happily ensconced at her best friend's and The Boy was with his girlfriend, and sauntered home afterwards feeling like a chilled-out million dollars.
Then the rain came. No worries, I thought. On a day like this, MediaMum is savvy enough to have an umbrella stashed in her bag.
That's when it all went horribly wrong. I pressed the button to put up the umbrella - and the end shot off and landed in a puddle. The rain got harder and my feet got wet, which made my new sandals rub. I still had half a mile to walk and, by the time I got home, any remaining feel-good vibes had been well and truly washed away.
Oh well. The brief period of feeling like a Yummy Mummy About Town was nice while it lasted. Maybe I should leave it to those who do it so much better in future though!
