Wearing leggings and painting my nails - just what a business trip is for!

I'm in India right now. 

To be exact I'm sitting in my hotel room after a day in the office here, sitting around in leggings and a T-shirt and feeling really comfy and quite girly. I'm not out at home, so normally I have to be really careful. However,  a business trip is the perfect opportunity to explore a bit without worrying about being found out.

I decided to keep it tame this time round. Armed with advice from my pal Ashley, who's been a wonderful encouragement to me, I picked some leggings from HM and then went shopping for nail polish. 

So this morning I decided to experiment with base coat on my toes (ok, really cautious!) - but when I discovered they hadn't turned bright pink I went for it and painted my finger nails too. It felt so good to express some of my femininity in public (even though it was unnoticeable except if you were really paying attention). 

Of course I'm feeling like I'm on a slippery slope now, and wondering what else I can get away with. I'm also worried about having to stop when I get home. This really makes me question how long I can let this go without saying something.

Still, that's not today's problem. I'm going to tuck up in bed with the copy of Elle I picked up at the airport. I realise that this is not weird, it's so 'me' and I really regret waiting this long to find out.
