I don't want him thinking Mummy is a lazy arse (Although I am, obviously). Mainly I want to be able to make money from home, in my dressing gown.

You look fierce and Vix is right to add the jacket, still a bit of you poking out.

Best of luck for it!! I do hope you get it. What an amazing contrast to see you in workwear verus your customary colourful, vintage fabulous style. I'm reminded quite starkly of the contrast between the sombre colours and conservative cuts I often have to wear for work and what I love wearing off duty. It's a lucky minority who get to wear what they truly want to to work. It requires discipline to put aside ideas of what you'd normally like wearing in favour of something that looks professional without totally losing your personality on the way.
