I’m zombified. Christmased out. Cooked. I ate, I drank, I was mildly merry. The up shot? I liked my Xmas outfit. Black sweater dress with silver glittery tights and sweater boots. It worked out much better than LAST year when I shopped high and low for a skirt and sweater which I (idiotically) wore tucked [...]
