Nothing to Wear!

                                       And #TuesdayTwirl 

Is This Mutton owns up to a problem that's far from unique. A wardrobe full of clothes, but nothing to wear.

Dear friends.  I'm sure we've all been there. A wardrobe full of clothes and an event to attend. But suddenly you can't find anything to wear.

This happened to me on my birthday. We were going out for dinner followed by the theatre. Originally I'd planned to wear purple. One of my husband's presents was a gorgeous purple bag. 

But I'd worn purple at a pop concert the week before and wasn't motivated to wear it again.

Ever Experienced Nothing to Wear Syndrome? And Link Up

We finally went Out Out at the weekend, going into London to belatedly celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary, which was in June.  We chose the Gilbert Scott Restaurant which is in the Renaissance Hotel at St Pancras. Named after a famous architect and owned by Marcus Wareing, it has a beautiful interior.

You may be surprised I was stumped as to what to wear. Surely, after months of not going out, and with a wardrobe full of clothes, I would have plenty of options?
