Violets are Blue and So are My Roses.

Jumpsuit ASOS, Blouse Miss Selfridges, Lace Leggings Topshop, Biker Jacket ASOS, Boots H&M, Snood H&M, Ring Ebay

It felt like Christmas morning again today as three of my recent online purchases arrived. Also the dress arrived yesterday it is more than perfect, I am going to have it shortened as it sits just below the knee which is not that flattering. I will find the Vogue editorial of it and put it on a post.

I am wearing two of my pieces that arrived this morning the ring which was a bargain £0.99 won on Ebay and my ASOS jumpsuit which I totally adore I am a big fan of jumpsuits and I do tend to find that they are an occurred taste but I have been wearing them for years and I love that they are easier to find now they have become more mainstream. I have teamed the outfit off with my H&M snood as I have not worn it for ages I also put a blouse under the jumpsuit and a pair of lace leggings as it would be a little chilly to be wearing it on its own. I love the blue rose print against the black it gives a twist to the girly roses.

Sale Time

Trousers Topshop, Cardigan Topshop, Boots Topshop, Belt Topshop, Cuffs New Look

My outfit is a little tame today I was back to work and had to be up 6am this morning as the store opened at 8am ready for the sale shoppers. I was so tired and could not really think about what to wear so I went safe with my leather look trousers and oh so comfortable Topshop boots. I watched Grey Gardens last night with Drew Barrymore playing Edie Beale who was Jackie Onassis's cousin it is such a cool film I really recommend it and the outfits are amazing. I watched the documentary about three years ago and Marc Jacobs actually used her as inspiration for his S/S08 collection and the Little Edie bag from Fall 2007 was named after her. I recommend watching the documentary first read about it here then the film makes more sense.

My outfit colour co-ordinates with my tree and colour scheme which is silver, black and white. I got some beautiful presents and vouchers of course for Topshop my sister is online now spending her River Island ones :). I got the ring that I am wearing today and a case for my camera a necklace and lots of other bits. The mask I am wearing is the one wrapped around my present.

Christmas Eve Lunch

Skirt Ronit Zilkha, Top Ronit Zilkha, Coat Ronit Zilkha, Belt Topshop, Shoes New Look, Handmuff Ebay, Belt worn around Wrist New Look

I am off to my Nana's for lunch I love Christmas Eve in some ways I prefer it to Christmas Day.
I love the excitement which as this very moment is hugh :)

Today's outfit is inspired by Carrie Bradshaw's outfit in season 6 Episode 94 An American Girl in Paris. I watched it a couple of weeks ago and decided that I wanted a similar outfit for today. I used to work for an amazing designer called Ronit Zilkha unfortunately she went bust a few years ago I miss her designs very much as she was inspired by flea markets and vintage pieces I am fortunate enough to have an amazing collection of her clothes and everything I am wearing today is by her. I hope one day that she decides to design again and this post is dedicated to her creativity. I added the gold beads to the black top it took me about four hours.

I want to wish all my gorgeous stylish followers a Happy Stylish Christmas and I want to thank you all for following and for all your lovely comments

Golden Touch

Jumpsuit H&M, Jacket Miss Selfridges, Belt Topshop, Shoes Kurt Geiger, Cuffs French Connection, Belt worn as Necklace New Look

Today is the first day of my three days off for Christmas so I have spent the day bumming around watching Christmas films. I woke up this morning and some presents had appeared under the tree I took a picture of a really pretty gift wrapped present from my mum. I love masks and this one is so pretty and it looks so beautiful under the tree. I am off out for drinks with friends I was going to wear this gold jumpsuit on New Years Eve but I can't wait that long. I brought it the same day I brought the gold skirt. I decided to go for gold accessories I thought it would be too much but it seemed to work. Sorry about the picture quality but they were taken in a hurry and it was not until I uploaded them that I realised and I have no time to take more.

No Snow for Me

Blouse Miss Selfridges, Belt worn as Necklace New Look, Boots Kurt Geiger, Hat New Look, Coat Topshop

Everyone in the UK got snow apart from the area that I live in :(. It is really strange as a town 10 miles away got snow but not one flake all we had was ice. My poor brother had his flight cancelled yesterday as they shut the airport he was put up in a hotel for the night and got a flight first thing this morning all this chaos and my little town carried on as normal. People even slept over in the bed department in a department store because they got snowed in. I am wearing my skirt as a dress today and I have layered a blouse under it. The boots are the same ones as yesterday but I removed the cuffs.

A Lace Affair

Lace Top Topshop, Shoes Seychelles, Necklace New Look, Fur Collar Thifted

Today my outfit was inspired by the Louis Vuitton A/W09 collection. I brought the calf length lace leggings on Monday from Topshop and they straight away reminded my of Louis Vuitton. I put a pair of blue tights under them to pick the colour out in my skirt. I brought a set of false eyelashes from MAC yesterday I put them on today what a mess I think I will have to practice. Thay looked OK but not as good as the MAC girls :( as they say practice makes perfect. Just found this on you tube I will try this tomorrow and hopefully have more luck with my lashes x

Festive Fun

Skirt H&M, Belt Topshop, Tights Topshop, Boots Kurt Geiger

The last Saturday before Christmas is always a busy one in retail so I decided to wear a Santa's hat and a festive outfit. I brought the skirt and tights on Tuesday and I have to say I really liked this outfit. My friend Maria joined in and she also wore a Santa's hat. I love working in retail at this time of the year the hours are long but the festive feeling and the constant Christmas music means you are 100% aware of Christmas everyday and we also have a snow machine at work and every two hours it snows for a few minutes.

A little boho

Gillet Primark, Shoes Topshop, Boots Topshop, Necklace New Look

Well so much for the snow just a little sprinkle but it is still nice to see snow in December so I am not going to moan. I have two sets of outfits but one has a change of shoes. It was not really practical to wear an open toe shoe so I wore the boots into work and changed in to the shoes on the shop floor.

Out for Dinner

Dress Day Birger, Blazer Farhi, Shoes New Look, Necklace Topshop, Belt TK Maxx

My brother has come over from Jersey with his girlfriend to visit and we are going out for dinner this evening. I am wearing a dress that I brought from Day Birger about two years ago I really love their clothes and they have gone in to sale today I have my eye on a grey leather dress which at the moment is not in :(
It is meant to snow tonight about 20cm this is so unusual for the UK and I am really excited so hopefully when I wake up tomorrow morning there should be a lovely blanket of snow.
