I wanted to create this post to see if my style has changed much this year, it really hasn't. I'm still drawn to dresses and quite feminine shapes. I'de like to think I take more risks though and I don't think I would have worn a hat like the one I wore in October or a leather skirt pre-blogging. I'm going to reflect...
I hope you guys all had a very merry Christmas. I'm currently on the sofa feeling a bit sick and have been in my pjs for most of the day. I could get used to this! It's been a fairly quiet Christmas for me, I don't have a big family so spent yesterday at home watching all my favourite films with a box...
I was recently invited to sample the Christmas menu at the Kings Arms in Pentyrch. I took my friend Katilea with me and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves even though we got lost on the motorway for an hour trying to find Pentyrch... When we finally arrived I thought that the Kings Arms looked like a typical country pub from the outside but I...
I treated myself to this dress in Manchester a couple of months ago now and it has become one of my favourites. It's from Oasis and I don't normally shop there as the clothes tent to be a tad small and on the expensive side. However, I saw this in the window, tried it on and fell in love. They had a 20%...
On Sunday I attended the South West Bloggers Christmas Party at The Birdcage in Bristol. Not only was it a great opportunity to hang out with some of my favourite bloggers we also got to raise some money for Macmillan Cancer Support. There was cake, a dog in a jumper, presents, live music and a quiz. Don't think I've ever been to such...
It's soooooooooo cold! I know you're probably fed up up of people making this statement. I wake up to it on twitter everyday and I've seen more than a few frosty photos on instagram but us Brits do love to talk about the weather. If staying indoors in the warm in my pjs was an option I would do it but I have...
As I mentioned in my last post I headed up to Birmingham on Saturday for my first ever Clothes Show Live experience. I had never been before so I had no idea what to expect, my only experience of it was watching some coverage about it on C4 and I knew Caryn Franklin was involved. I arrived at Birmingham New Street and had...
I was lucky enough to attend the Clothes Show Live with a few other bloggers on Saturday and hang out at the Echo Falls wine bar and take in all the sights. Will do a full post on this later in the week but this is what I wore to the clothes show: I also wore a biker jacket, scarf and gloves and...
I feel like a bit of a yummy mummy type in this outfit but I love it. It's much more weather appropriate and practical than I would normally wear. Nice thick and warm jumper with a waterproof coat, the perfect attire for the local town fete which I attended. (Rained the whole time I was there, luckily you could pop inside for tea...
All my Christmas shopping is done now, hurrah! Trawling through the internet for the perfect gifts for friends and family has meant that I've now got a pretty bit Christmas wishlist of my own. I think I probably spent more time looking at things thast I would like rather than gifts for others... 1. I always want a Yankee candle, my brother has...
A little twitter chat on Monday night with Eloise and Claire sparked loads of faded memories of bands I loved, college friends and my time at university. I never really had a live journal or blog before this but if I did all my teenage ramblings would have been about bands not dresses. I'm not as eloquent as other bloggers so I'm just...
Finally, a day off! I've been really busy the past week cramming lots in before Christmas, nights out, shopping after payday and planning lots of gathering. I'm already making plans for the new year like another trip to Manchester and I've got tickets to see Two Door Cinema Club and for the NME tour. Lots to look forward to and a full diary...
I'm very hard to impress when it comes to finding the perfect party dress. I don't like glitter, diamante or sequins. I don't want to pay £80 for something that I will wear once and then ends up in the sale for £20 on Boxing Day and I like to find something that I can wear for more than one situation. This Simply...
I posted my Chrismas gift guide for men last week but this instalment is all about gifts for the lovely ladies in your life. I always have trouble getting gifts for older members of my family, they aren't really into music or film so I can't go down that route and expensive clothes are wasted on my mum who wears a uniform of...
Best British Bloggers contacted me a while back to see if I'd like to review a bra from Panache. I jumped at the chance because I always invest a lot of time and money when it comes to getting a new bra and I consider myself quite the bra connoisseur. I spent the majority of my teens buying cheap bras in pretty colours...
I know, I know... ANOTHER Topshop basic dress. I just can't help myself, I've got this in two colours too. I picked this up a while ago when Topshop had discount and free delivery so it only cost me £18. It's stretchy and holds it shape really well even after loads of washes and hasn't faded. I think these dresses are a bit...
I know we haven't even had Christmas yet but me and my friends have already planned our New Years Eve. It's always a huge let down for us involving being with family we don't really like or spending a fortune on taxi's home. Have you noticed that everything seems to triple in price on NYE? I'm going to be seeing in the new...
