So this is Christmas

Outfit:
Black skater dress: Clothing at Tesco
Black faux fur stole: Marks and Spencer
Floral black thick tights: C/O Clothing at Tesco
Black smoking slippers: Next
Sliver necklace: Snoopers Paradise, Brighton
Red plastic watch: Toywatch
Black friendship bracelet: Links of London

Hope you have all had an amazing Christmas!

This was my Christmas day outfit, nothing too mind bowing. But it was comfortable and the tights helped to jazz it up a bit. I brought the tights with my voucher I was given a while ago so had been after a plain black dress to pair with them. Tesco came up trumps again!

My Christmas was amazing and then some. I spent it with all my favourite people and crazy family. My boyfriend ended up coming back to mine in a shopping trolley on Christmas Eve and a 20 minute walk home ended up taking 2 hours. Standard night out. Christmas day consisted of a almightly hangover, my Aunts dog making friends with my boyfriends leg, busting some shapes in the kitchen, having enough food to feed the 5000 and becoming the owner of some absolutely lovely Christmas presents. It is just such a shame that it's over now. After getting up at 5am for sale on Boxing day and working every day since I feel like I haven't slept. Looking forward to having a complete lazy day tomorrow.

I have so many posts planned so keep a look out :)

I should be so lucky

Lady luck has been on my side these last few weeks. Although if things really do come in threes, it has come and gone. Still it was pretty amazing while it lasted! My three giveaway prizes were pretty snazzy!

1. A Christmas hamper from AThriftyMrs
Look at all these goodies! I was over the moon to win a hamper filled with lots of yummy food to be eaten. My dad has already nabbed the peanuts! It will be perfect to take round my Aunts on Christmas day for all the family to munch. I had a stand-off with the mother about who would actually keep the hamper. Safe to say I won of course. Thanks so much once again :)

2. A Frankie dairy from Catherine
How beautiful is this diary? It is almost too pretty to write in. I have been lusting over Frankie diarys on blogs so was ever so please to get my hands on one! It is just a gorgeous in real life, really is the Queen of diarys. Thanks Catherine :)

3. A charm braclet from Vikki
Vikki was very kind and sneaked a candy cane into the package too! This wonderful charm bracelet, that comes with a cute working clock, is made by Define Elephants Jewellery who make such lovely jewellery. I am sure I am going to be the envy of all my friends :) Thanks lovely!

I just want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and say how grateful I am to have passed the 250 readers mark. It means so much to me! I am off to my Aunts house for Christmas Day, with 16 of us for dinner and 18 for tea it will be organised chaos. I can't wait!

Bloggers Christmas Cocktail Party


Have you got your champange ready? None of that bucks fizz nonsense, we like to be able to taste the alcohol ;) Don't forget to put a few mince pies in your handbag for those munches that always seem to appear on the way home! Welcome to the Bloggers Christmas Cocktail Party! With Becky, Tass ,Michelle, Sarah, Hannah, Lucy, Hannah, Lucy, Sarah, Jo and Amy on board it is sure to be one heck of a party! Of course with such stylish bloggers in attendence, the perfect outfit is needed. Gotta impress right? I think I may have found the perfect attire...

Designer

Dress - Temperley London £1,950, Shoes - Gucci £540, bag - Alexander McQueen £995, Earrings - Monica Vinader £330

Not exactly the most fashion forward of outfit but you can never go wrong with a LBD right? Especially one that is as stunning as this. This is my favourite outfit and I can imagine myself swishing down stairs covered in holly with the smell of Christmas pud in the air. Oh my how much do I need this bag in my life. Leopard print will forever hold my heart, isn't it gorgeous? As the dress is such a statement, blingy jewellery will spoil it. Hence why these understated earrings will look gorgeous.

High Street
Dress - Topshop £165, Shoes - Dune £63.50, Bag - Monsoon £32, Bracelet - House of Harlow £39, Earrings - Oasis £8

Who doesn't like a bit of sparkle at Christmas? The magpie in me gasped in delight when I spotted these shoes and handbag. If you can't sparkle like a disco ball at Christmas then when can you?! Topshop comes to the rescue yet again with this gorgeous lemon shift dress. Admittedly it is a touch on the expensive side but I can afford to splash out for the festive season.Such a delicate beautiful dress calls for some beautiful delicate arm candy. This House of Harlow bracelet fits the bill perfectly.

Which one is your favourite outfit?
