Happy June! I’m pleased to announce that things in the UK are finally going back to normal, the shops re-opened today and restaurants are beginning to make plans, which is amazing. I can’t wait for everything to go back to normal. How are you all feeling about the lock down being lifted and life getting back on track? I’m hoping that I will be able to see Adam again soon so that we can do some photoshoots together, as we still work together, and I will finally have some new content for you!
These pictures were shot in a hotel room back in February or March, before the lock down happened, so I only have a few sets left to last me, which is why I haven’t had much content available. The first outfit was a Mango Cream Shirt with a Topshop Burgundy Leather Skirt, and the second one was a Mango Brown Shirt with an ASOS Black Leather Skirt. Both worn with a Mango Bralette in Leopard underneath to add a little something extra. I would say that both of these outfits are suitable for nighttime wear. You might notice that I was a lot curvier in these pictures too, and that’s because I had gained quite a bit of weight, but I’ve lost it all now and am pretty much back to my starting weight, so I can finally fit back into most of my clothes!
I’m planning to put together more content that isn’t outfit based as well, because I need to keep updating you guys, but without having been able to do photoshoots, I couldn’t upload many of my looks. I’m finally starting to feel better mentally now, so I feel ready to write more. I know I said that in my previous blog post, but then things got on top of me. I’m feeling stronger now. I’m still wanting to get into a different avenue of work as well, and that’s voice over acting/reading. So I will see if that’s something that is possible, but don’t worry, I will still have my blog! Thank you so much for all of your love and support, your kindness and always checking in on me to make sure I’m ok. It touches my heart and I genuinely appreciate it. I love you all! Lorna xx.

Lovely outfit, Lorna, I like the burgandy color better. How wonderful that things are opening up now, the same is happening here. New content is always good!
Author
Thank you, John! Really glad you like it! And yes, I’m excited for things to be opening back up! Although everyone has gone crazy and not paying attention to social distancing in the stores!
Your welcome, Lorna. Shame on them. I was in the bank this morning, the floor has six foot distancing things on the floor, everyone stayed apart. I hope you can get back to posting more soon, didn’t know you still work with Adam.
Author
Thank you, John! Yeah we have a good friendship!
It has been a while and I have missed seeing you so much.
Apart from your pretty face I look forward to seeing every outfit and accessory you model.
You make life so easy with your great taste, I always check to see what looks good on you before I buy for my girlfriend.
She thinks I do my shopping all on my own 😂.
Whenever you feel down and unable to make time to post, just remember that there are thousands of us Out here who care about you and that your wonderful posts make our day.
Please keep the blog going and teasing us with your Instagram posts too.
You make a big difference especially during these difficult times.
With shopping so difficult your photo shoots help tremendously.
😊🌹 Regards, Steve.

Thank you so much, Steve! Seriously, that’s genuinely so kind of you to say that and I’m always so thankful to have all of you out there that support and love what I do. I am sorry that I haven’t been updating as much, but I am trying to from now on! Knowing how much you enjoy my content is a driving force for me!
Good to have you back Lorna and love the styling in this. Great tips on how to style a leather skirt as it’s not the easiest thing to pull off x
Author
Thank you so much, Chloe! So happy you love the looks!
Hi Lorna. It’s good to see your blog post today. I always look forward to seeing what you are up to and you have a keen eye for pulling outfits together and what looks good on you at the same time! Quite the stylist! 🙂 You look fab in these outfits and we all know curves work! While I am definitely looking forward to seeing your new looks, it might be cool to do a few “look-back” blogs and take a poll of your readers favorites over the last few years. Kind of like tv shows – re-runs or “best of.” And as far as voice overs and acting, etc … I would be happy to assist in any way I can from Los Angeles. We have quite a large British group here on the West side of Los Angeles in Santa Monica. You could glam up the West Coast! Keep posting and staying positive. You Rock Lorna! – Frank (aka Malibudude) Producer, Fastlane Entertainment, Los Angeles

Thank you so much, Frank! That’s so kind of you 🙂 Glad you look forward to my posts! And that would be absolutely amazing if you could help in any way! A large British group of VO actors?
Just a large group of BRITs that live in Santa Monica I assume a few of them do voiceovers 😎
Author
Oh! Well, that’s really cool 😀
You are rocking these skirts. Things are slowly going back to normal here as well.

Thank you so much, Amy!
Good to see you up and about, Lorna…
Author
Thank you, Michael! I did appreciate your message last time too!
It’s delightful to see you posting again Lorna. I’m so glad to hear you’re feeling better, and focusing on your creative aims. Whether you’re curvier, or more svelte, you look stunning either way. The most important thing is to be healthy.
I adore both looks! I’m looking forward to reading new content from you. It will be good to hear more about your mental wellbeing and other things, as well as the usual fashion inspo, which I love.
Lots of love Saba xx
Author
Thank you, Saba!! I’m so glad you are excited for my new content! I am too, I feel like it’s time to start breathing life back into everything now. And I’m healthy again, I didn’t feel too good when I was heavier as it was pressure on my joints! Hopefully I can put out some good content going forward! Lots of love xx.
I have no doubt that you will Lorna, and I can’t wait to see what’s ahead.
Xx

Thank you!!
Fun leather skirts! it’s so nice that you are able to do more now that things are reopening! Life is slowly returning to normal here although I think that we will be working from home for much longer – but the kids are back at school and sports are starting up again it’s so good to see! 🙂 It will be nice to have more posts from you again soon too!
Hope that you are having a good week 🙂
Author
Thank you so much, Mica! I’m really glad you’re doing well and things are getting back to normal in Australia too!
Hello Lorna good to see your new post even if the picture were taken a while back , I hope you have not lost too much weight . You look fine has you are and the leather skirts suit you . Yes it will get better now things are being slowly lifted it is just a matter of being careful when out . take care Ian

I’ve lost the 10 pounds that I gained, so I’m back to my starting weight that you were used to last year! Thank you!
Both combinations look good – but, to my eyes, the black and brown one is the winner here by a good margin. It looks so classy.
I’ve not been great mentally either. I’ve not seen any family in person since February and I’d not seen any friends in person since early March – until a couple of weeks ago when I was finally able to meet a friend, socially distanced and in masks, in the park. She only lives a mile away but that’s how crazy and destructive this virus has been (not just healthwise).
Author
Yeah, it’s been really destructive on our mental health, seriously, it’s caused so many issues! I can’t believe it came to this, it’s gonna be in the history books for sure! I’m sorry you haven’t been doing too well xx.
Thanks Lorna. 🙂 xx I feel a bit better today as I’m hoping to see my parents next weekend. The reason I’d not seen them since the easing is they’ve been shielding my 92 year old grandad – but he’s ready to return to his own home now – so I’ll be able to see my parents now. Yes, it crosses my mind too that we’re living through a big moment in history… It also gives the phrase 20-20 vision a whole new meaning…
Author
Yes it does! I didn’t think of that, it’s a huge change for everyone this year. I don’t think anything will fully be the same ever again. I’m glad you’re doing ok though 🙂
