I know, black trousers and a black turtle neck in boresville, but I think I'll save the pink sequined shirt for if/when I'm a little higher up the ladder!

You will have to post photos of the badge AND keep us up to date on your costume choice for the competition (okay, you think it's about the skating, but everyone knows it's about the outfit!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1602697467859417662.post-52133333582575740052016-03-15T22:31:44.339-04:002016-03-15T22:31:44.339-04:00You're braver than I am!
