I have no idea what I’m doing. 🤪 and all the replies on my story today made me feel less alone, so I thought I’d put it on the grid so hopefully we can all pull together in the comments and feel less alone together ❤️

Victoria may have to stay with me, I can’t believe she hasn’t been snapped up yet! The most beautiful bright vintage curtain fabric gives the most dramatic sleeves and I very much enjoyed wearing her on this shoot.

She’s available on the website now, but I wonder how long for?!

19k - what ON EARTH!! Thank you so much to each and every one of you for being here, whether you’ve recently followed since the gorgeous wooden_tops_ posted or if you e been here for years. I appreciate EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU!

So here’s a very brief TFM history and some facts about me. Please do introduce yourself in the comments, I love chatting away with beautiful people on here ❤️

Life is busy but beautiful, and the community I’ve built on here is definitely one of the beautiful parts.

What better way to celebrate this milestone than with some gorgeous photos by Jess Howell | Photography

Eternally grateful 🙏

Today is the day. The day I try on everything in my wardrobe. The day I finally admit to myself I am no longer a size small, and I never will be again.

I still have so many items of clothing that haven’t fit me since my Type One Diabetes diagnosis seven and a half years ago.

I’m forcing myself to embrace myself, and I didn’t think I was going to get emotional about it but here we are!

So I’m going to empty the wardrobe and try everything on. And with a wardrobe my size today is going to be a work out 😂

Anyway, eyes peeled for me selling my beautiful clothes, to make way for clothes that feel truly perfect on my different (but still perfect) body.

Love,
Nicole ###

There seem to be SO many accounts having a pop at charity shops recently, and I’m not here for it.

I have shopped in them my whole life, volunteered, collaborated with them and now I work in one. Here are some of the things I am constantly reading recently that make me want to scream into my phone.

Let me know, do you agree or disagree? Has this made you think differently?

Couldn’t see this shirt go to waste when we found it in the donations this week. The collar was ruined but the rest of the shirt was perfect, and now she’s living her new life rocking a frill collar with a matching scrunchie.

I’m back in Edition on Sunday so she’ll be available in there soon raising vital funds for Marie Curie 🌼
