Run-down in the run-up

I'm soooo nervous. It's been a while since I've been on a date. Let alone on a date with a man who broke my heart. On a date that pretty much determines my future. 

I've managed to sort out the perfect capsule wardrobe for the weekend. Smart, sleek, city-chic, understated. Black and white with the occasional pop of regal blue. It was too late to have my roots done but I just might be able to squeeze in a fresh French pedicure.

Now if only I could sort myself out... 

In the run-up to this make or break- city break I've already driven myself mad with the latest additions to the already existing array of body issues. I have fat earlobes! I have cankles! I have a jiggly stomach! I have flabby arms! And I can't have flabby arms since that blue French Connection pussy bow blouse that the entire weekend wardrobe is built around is sleeveless!!! 

The stress (and coming off the Pill) has also caused me to break out in spots which is not good either since I'm hoping to be spending majority of the weekend in bed, looking sexy and impossibly dewy-skinned, causing him to agonize over his decision to turn down my proposal

I know, I know. I mustn't sleep with him. That would just ruin everything. We must focus on talking and openly communicating our hopes for our immediate future instead.

But just in case... I'll be bringing a morning after pill.

  1. For a dewy-skinned future, I can definitely recommend Alpha H's liquid gold (the idea of applying glycolic acid on my face freaked me out to begin with, but so far so good), the wild rose serum from Korres (expensive, but worth every penny) and the yoghurt mask from Korres (applied in the evening and left on overnight).

    May the Force be with you!
