Happy new year! This is the first chance I've had to do a post, sorry it's not so prompt as I hoped, but I've got plenty things lined up! I've had my trip to Mulberry outlet in york, they had no iPad cases unfortunately and I was a little naughty (and got a bag, post will follow soon)

My look today is a Jonathan Saunders long tee, I love the digital print on this, it is a sort of tribal mix but still feels very futuristic. The colour story inside it is beautiful, I'm a fan of all sort of shades of blues and greens atm. I got this top from Yoox.com in the sale (£29) which is amazing for designer. I paired this with a mint green boyfriend cardigan, my colour for Spring/Summer has definitely GOT to be mint green. I'm thinking I need one of everything in it. Even better if it's made out of leather.

This is one of many inspirational images from Etsy, the soap looks good enough to eat! See the exact item here,
My cardi is merino wool and from one of my favourite shops ever, Tk Maxx at £25 it is a much needed staple in my wardrobe (and no doubt will be over used in spring)

My pumps are Vivienne Westwood/ Melissa. I love nude flats and I wish I could own every pair in the world, they go with everything and are too useful. These ones are plastic and smell so sweet, I got them on my uniform so were discounted anyways ^.^

Jewellery
Watch: Michael Kors
Ring: Dannijo

At the moment im wearing this top as a dress because its thick enough but I'm looking for more inventive ways to wear it ( not just with jeans etc, tucked into skirts) So if anyone has any inspiring outfit ideas PLEASE leave a comment, again don't forget to leave your blogs and I'll write back.

I don't know about you but I'm getting so exciting for SPRING, bring on the colour!

Next post on York trip soon!

Last Post of 2011!

Its new years eve eve! Hope you had a lovely Christmas! This will be my last post of 2011, and I'm looking forward to the year ahead, I've got plans to regularly update my blog and plenty more looks in mind as well as a trip to Tokyo (hopefully)(maybe some more hehe) coming up next year. I'm also going to York on tuesday, and paying a visit to my favourite Mulberry outlet, I'm after (prehaphs) a bag but most definitely an iPad case for my shiny new toy, so make sure you look out for that...

Today im wearing a silver knitted dress from H&M, this dress is an asteal at £7.99, my size sold out in the newcastle store but luckily i somehow managed to order the last one over the phone!(woo!) BEWARE, h&m delivery is SLOW, it took nearly 2 weeks to arrive.

Never the less its a really easy dress to throw on for work or night, again I've gone metallic, something I never have done last year but this year I'm loving it(well the pieces from h&m at least).

It looks more of a grey on the photos as they dont really capture the metallic, my necklace is very old from Topshop ,dee my other blog post to see where my shoes and cardi are from, thick tights are a must with this dress also!

Oh and here is my iPad ^.^ Hopefully i can find a lovely Mulberry case for it to sit in soon!

Leave a comment and don't forget to leave all your lovely blogs and I'll pay them a visit!

Winter warmer

Firstly, I must apologize for how long it has been since my last blog post! Also for how short it was, from now on I promise to keep them coming! I've got plenty new looks to show for winter, I've just been caught up in the busy festive period with work etc!

This fairisle print skirt from River Island was sure to get me in the christmas mood, it was the first time I've bought a longer skirt (all mine are great lengths above the knee) but its probably the most flattering skirt I've ever had! Now i'm addicted, I NEED more tight fitting midi skirts in my life!

However, I couldn't resist this perfect jumper, its angora mix ,so is super soft and really easy for just throwing over my skirt, dresses, anything! It has a slight metallic sheen too it (something I usually stray away from but its definitley more chic than chatty) so it was a steal from H&M!

The shoes! From my favourite, ASOS, the perspex looks like its frosting over, coming up from the ground ( I think atleast ha ha). I've wanted some persex heels for a while so snatched these boots up in the sale when the chance came, glittery socks to continue my little metallic feel (Primark, bargain)

The teal clutch is also from ASOS, (matching nails did you notice ;)) I might buy myself a porfolio clutch in the sales because I like the look of them ^.^, Im also after a new cardigan and/or jacket. I've discovered I'm quite short on them lately, this kimono style one has a nice silhouette, and is just borrowed from my mams wardrobe.

For now, I cannot wait for christmas! My next post will be after, and hopefully some good sale purchase posts after!

Have a lovely christmas!

Galactic Skirt

I've been wearing a lot of black again lately, not really sure how to dress for the English weather atm.

There was something about this skirt that got my attention, well, enough for me to purchase it!

Its weird because it is nothing like the stuff I buy most of the time, it reminds me of Christopher Kane.

Top: Vintage
Skirt: Rowme.com
Blazer: H&M
Shoes: Nine West

It's longer at the back so flows really lovely, almost looks like its sparkling.

More coming soon!

Blush Sky

These are a few of my favourite shots from my Holiday. Took at sunset the sun was reflected in the water turning it and the sky a lovely shade of pink, oh so similair to the colour of my dress at the time.

Outfit
Dress: Asos
Sandals: Kurt Geiger
Necklace: DIY

My Bargain
The dress of course! From the ASOS sale at £15
I loved the cut away mid drift however I am yet to and seriously doubt I'll get away with wearing it in England again any time soon :(

DIY
My necklace was actually part of a birthday card from my mam a couple years ago, it had this lovely strawberry on, so I took it apon myself to add it to some thread and turn it into an accessory.

Soon will be the last of my summer uploads I think :( however I have some good ideas for A/W so stay tuned..

See you soon!

Hand embroided dress

Hopefully you will remeber my blog poat not so long ago about my hand embroided dress I was working on, if not, see it here.

I finally finished all the beading I wanted to do, I filled the blue triangles and green triangles completely and thickened the burnt orange coloured lines.

The Result:

This is one of the images from my holiday wearing the dress ,complete with stacks of bangles in similar colours...

Dress: H&M, beading added by me
shoes: Kurt Geiger
Tote Bag:ASOS

I know it hardly feels like summer any more now in England, I just want to show the last of my summer looks before starting on the new season, so some more escapism is yet to come!

See you soon :)

Crotchet dress

Just a quick post today, to let me lookbooker fans know where I actaully got my completely crotchet outfit!

It is infact all topshop!
Crotchet bikini & the dress was reduced to £15 from £50!

How much happier everything is in the sun! I love the sun, and now I'm sad because I just want to be back on holiday :(

This was actually taken on the Island of Antipaxos, which is where they filmed the bounty adverts!

Im afraid my post has to be,
Short and sweet today!
