Home.

So I made a flying visit home last weekend, and as the boy was getting increasingly agitated as to how long I was taking to pack ('packing-light' is not a legitimate phrase in my vocabulary), I finally decided that it was time me and the disco trousers went on a break, so I ended up in this little get-up...

Striped Jumper - Forever 21 (similar here)
Skirt - River Island
Shoes - Daisystreet

I have to say I am rather enjoying the trend of loose fit jumpers over skater style skirts; anything which means I don't have to worry about breathing in the whole time works for me! 

Ombre.

As I suspected, the disco pants have barely left my legs. Like a magpie to jewels, I find it hard to step away from shiny black lycra of a morning; they are just too darn easy to throw on!

Moonstone ring - Monica Vinader
Spiked ring - Topshop
Amber ring - Independent jewellers

Hat - Topman
Top - H&M
Leggings - American Apparel
Boots - River Island
Glitter Socks - Urban Outfitters

Ideally I would have worn this top with my black lace body underneath but that has currently been commandeered by my sister so I risked it for a chocolate biscuit and went without.

I was hoping to pop out for a bit of late night shopping tonight but the heavens have opened and I am not sure I can face trudging round the shops in the pouring rain. Besides having to get Christmas pressies' for people, I am rather clueless as to what I can ask ol' Saint Nick for and was hoping to get some inspiration from my favourite high street stores. 

What are you all asking for for Christmas this year?

Gimme, Gimme, Gimme...#4

Seeing as it is Christmas coming up, I thought I would post a few things that I would be very happy to find under my tree this year...

The Perks Of Being A Wallflower - Amazon   Houndstooth Playsuit - Topshop   Galaxy Jumper - Ebay
Platforms - Topshop   Earrings - Topshop   Nail Varnish in Stardust - Topshop
Velvet Playsuit - Lavish Alice  Cut Out Boots - Missguided

I need these these platforms in my life, PRONTO.

Please Stand Up.

 So I finally caved and got a pair of American Apparel disco trousers. Why did I wait so long?! (Oh wait, I remember. The price tag...)

Hat - Topman
Ring - Topshop (really old!) Similar here
White Tee - Topshop (similar)
Trousers - American Apparel
Shoes - Primark

 I hadn't worn these brogue style shoes in a while and it didn't take me long to figure out why; with literally no grip on them I almost went arse-over-tit more times then I care to remember. I think I may relegate these back to the wardrobe during these winter months, unless of course crutches suddenly become the accessory du jour.

I have been very lax in taking photos recently; my 'photographer' went AWOL for a while, but now he is back and firmly in my grasp I shall endeavour to keep this blog up-to-date :)

Twilight

Day at the office followed by a trip to watch everyone's favourite vampire ( I don't think I even need to write his name...)

Jacket -ASOS
Dress - Missguided
Boots - Daisystreet

Necklace - Topshop (so cute that couldn't help but include a close up!)

The dress is actually a maxi dress but I belted it round the waist  so I could give a flash of ankle (raunchy), but mostly of course so I could show of the fab spiked boots adorning my feet. Chuck on my leather jacket which brings a bit of pizazz (can't believe I used that word) to any seemingly plain outfit, and a slick of my new Kate Moss lipstick and I was ready to indulge in some vampire goodness!

Bite ya later...

Gimme, Gimme, Gimme...#3

Shoe special!

Boots - Charlene De Luca   Loafers - Miista   Black Platform Heels - Barratts

Embellished Boots - Topshop   Snakeskin Heels - Whistles

I want them all!

Weekend Round Up...

I popped home over the weekend so didn't get a chance to blog, but I managed to squeeze a quick photo op in...

Shirt and Bag - Primark
Hat -Asos
Leggings - Missguided

I love my new bag, why have I not rocked a backpack since primary school?! So practical! And stylish (hopefully...). Anyway, I predict that this Primark beauty will be making an appearance in a lot more future outfit posts so I shall apologize in advance. Sorry.

Sheer Maxi Dress -Miss Selfridge

I also bought this dress from Miss Selfridge in the week for a party I went to on Saturday night. I loved the outfit I wore but stupidly forgot to take a photo (doh!); I have a few parties coming up so hopefully it will get an outing then and you shall get to see it in all its glory! For the time being though, here is a very slight peak of it (and my new Kate Moss lipstick, whoop!)...

Until tomorrow my friends,
