CAMO ET LEOPARD

I seriously cannot believe it’s Christmas in 3 days!!! As you know I got all my shopping out the way early (first week in December), I have yet to wrap it *rolls eyes*; my honey and I finished his yesterday evening, so I’ve yet to wrap his too.

In the midst of my Christmas shopping I picked up a few things for myself; this sweater and jeans are just a couple of them, I love the idea of mixing prints so teamed them with (one of) my leopard print ankle boots. The trench we picked up in a vintage market in Birmingham (he got one too, slightly different and darker than mine). (more…)

NEW BOOTS

My boots came!!! First post with my new boots, that I lurve (Beyoncé voice). As soon as they arrived I threw them on and went to my fabric shop (I was going anyway, didn’t just make a trip to Christen them) and I’ve worn them every day since. Here, I’m wearing them with my grey pencil dress and an oversized sweater. (more…)

LOVE / HATE

These boots were in the bottom of my wardrobe for months, to the point where I forgot I’d even bought them! I ordered them from Zara while doing a spot of online shopping with my Godmother in the summer, from when I made the purchase tip after they arrived I was in two minds about them 60:40 love / hate respectively. She was also in two minds but a similar ratio to me so urged me to buy them, don’t you just love shopping with those kind of people?

The boots are a suede and corduroy/brocade upper with a wedge heel. I’m still kinda in two minds, but at the same time I really love them (is that even possible?), as does my honey. Styling wise I can only see them with greyscale outfits (black & grey) which is perfect for me because I lurve those colours.

Better still I haven’t seen anyone else in them, like at all!!! That either means they’re truly hideous, or people were’t too sure of how they would wear them. I didn’t see them go in the sale though?!?! Anyway if they are that awful, they’ll be my Quasimodo and I their Esmeralda. (more…)

MIRROR MIRROR

Another week, another birthday! This time out for dinner in Shepards Bush to a restaurant which I’d rather not name; one because I can’t actually remember the name, and two because it was incredibly overpriced for what it was, decor was really nice though…Rem suggested that’s why the prices are so steep! Then out for drinks and dancing at the Rum Kitchen in Notting Hill where we got to laugh at all the drunk Chelsea luvvies “dancing”. Reminded me of a few nights out I’ve had with my friend Ashley!
