Calling all capsule wardrobe challengers - when you complete the challenge could you leave your name in the comments box so that I can create a CWC round-up featuring everyone who took part.
Today was time to brighten up the black skirt with the graphic print.
Red has become a staple of my winter wardrobe which will make tomorrow's Red Heart Day Charity event a doddle.
Just one more day to go.
How is everyone doing?
I wore:
Shoes - Clarks
Skirt - Gap
Blouse - M & Co

Seville Weekend Wardrobe
Before I start writing the travel feature I thought I'd share my mini break wardrobe with you.
My husband organised the trip and as he likes to travel light he had not booked any checked-in luggage.
I had to use a carry-on bag for almost four days worth of outfits, two pairs of shoes, toiletries, make-up, hairdryer and chargers.
Each day would require two outfits and as we moved from temperatures of less than 10C in Liverpool to 32C in Seville it had to be a wardrobe of many layers.
While I wouldn't say I have got this mini break wardrobe down to a fine art yet I certainly enjoyed the learning process.
Next time I go on a city break there will be two pairs of flat shoes and one heeled pair instead of the two heels and the one pair of Fitflops I took this time.
I will only take one pair of jeans or trousers, one less dress and add a skirt.
If anyone has some top travelling light tips they would be gratefully received.
But of course this trip to the annual Sevilla Feria which celebrates fun, food and Flamenco was a great excuse to dress up.
So without further ado here's my wardrobe for the weekend.
