My Christmas Tree :)

I had a lovely day off my mum wanted to do a bit of Christmas shopping so I decided to join her the town was full of busy Christmas shoppers. Christmas is my most favorite time of the year and I can never get enough of Christmas songs. I know it is a little early but I decided to put up my tree so I spent the rest of the afternoon decorating the tree I was going to do it on Wednesday but I got to excited and could not wait. My sequin leggings were as sparkly as the Christmas lights.

I was asked if the sequin leggings are comfortable?

They are very comfortable well these Topshop ones are I did try a pair on in Zara's and they were a little scratchy but these are fine.

I went out with a friend today it has just about stopped raining here after two weeks and it is also a little colder. I will not be posting for a couple of days as we have a big event on at work and where as last time I was working late this time I am working the early shift and have to be in work by 7.45am and I dread to think what I will be looking like at that time in the morning. If I do look human you never know there might be a post :). I cant stop wearing my cut offs I did'nt wear them this much in the summer.

Hobby Tuesday

Cardigan Farhi, Cut Offs Topshop, Hat H&M, Leg Warmers H&M, Boots Dr Marten, Gloves CXD

I have been off work today and I have been and brought some small gold beads to sew on to a black jumper Topshop had a beautiful one a while ago but it sold out really quick so I decided to make one. I still have not found the perfect pair of black leggings to sew patches of black leather on to. It is a casual day today and the leg warmers over the tights made this outfit cosy.

Lots of Layers

Lace Top Topshop, Biker Jacket ASOS, Fur Collar Ebay, Fur Cape Ebay, Necklace & Belt New Look, Boots Topshop, Lace Leggings Topshop

I decided to base today's outfit around my peg leg trousers. I turned them up a little and put a pair of lace leggings under them for a different look. I added loads of Chanel inspired chains. I felt like wearing red lipstick again today as I quite liked it yesterday I have to be in the right kind of mood to wear red lipstick the one I am wearing is by Chanel and is called New York Red. I finished off the look with my biker jacket and decided to add fur I actually went with the small fur collar as the fur cape made the outfit a little top heavy. I had fun at work today singing to the Christmas songs :) I was also asked what hair extensions I use. I use American Dream ones they are human hair clip in ones and they have lots of different colours. I had two in yesterday but if it is a special occasion I will put in three.

I will post my work outfits again soon.

Today's outfit is what I wore last night I ran out of time this morning to take pictures of today's outfit which was pretty much similar to yesterdays apart from I wore black high shine leggings and a grey long vest top. I am wearing a pair of Primark sequin harem trousers which I brought on Sunday when I got the coat. The little jacket was made by one of my friends and worked really well.

Girls Night Out

Leather Shorts Vintage, Chiffon Top Whistles, Sequin Jacket Thifted, Faux Fur Gillet New Look, Boots Topshop, Cuffs French Connection, Necklace Topshop, Belt New Look

I have just got in from work and a quick change as I am out tonight. So I thought I would post this outfit. I am wearing my vintage leather shorts I took inspiration from Topshops Christmas look book it is all layering and sequins so this is what I came up with. I was quite pleased that I had things in my wardrobe that worked.

Grey Sunday

Boots H&M, Dress ASOS, Gillet Primark, Necklace Day Birger

It is my last day of my week off and I am meeting my mum for lunch today and also a little shopping I want to get a pair of black leggings because I broke the zip on the leather look trousers I wore on Friday and I thought I would recycle them by cutting patches of leather and putting them on to a pair of black leggings I just hope this works if it does I will show you. I based today's outfit around the boots and fur gillet.

The Perfect Clutch

Skirt H&M, Shirt Topshop, Blazer Farhi, Jacket H&M, Shoes Joy, Clutch bag Ghost , Cuff French Connection, Belt Vintage

I have been tidying out my wardrobe and have come across some tops that I had forgotten about. I am wearing one today with my new H&M skirt that I brought on Thursday the clutch bag is also new a birthday present for myself I saw it at work a while ago and brought it on Thursday as it had 20% off then an extra 20% staff discount I love it so much. The shoes are from Joy and match the shirt perfectly. I finished off the outfit with a blazer but I did like the way it looked with my H&M military jacket I have also added some shoulder pads to that jacket to make the sleeves more of a statement. The gold belt picks out the gold in the shirt.

All I Want for Christmas is Pain and a Little Body Mutilation

I'm getting some new ink for Christmas this year! I happened to mention it to Harry last night, and he's all for it. Woo hoo!

I'm finally starting on my sleeve. I really just want flowers... bright, bold, beautiful, colorful flowers. Cherry blossoms are a must. I'm starting at the top instead of doing an entire outline of my arm. I thought a cap sleeve would look pretty cool, so that's the piece I'll get next month. I've never seen anyone with a cap sleeve before, so it'll be somewhat original and funky. And very, very me.

I am SO excited. I can't wait.

Topshop Addict

I have nothing exciting planned for today I am going to go and see a friend so I am dressed for comfort I am wearing a pair of leather look trousers that I brought last year from Topshop with my Topshop jumper that I brought a few months ago it is such a lovely shape and has tiny little pearls on it that was why I decided to accessories it with my multi strand of pearls. I seem to be flying the flag for Topshop again today as I finished off the look with my Topshop boots which I can't stop wearing.

Black & Silver

Today I am off to where I work as they have a 20% off promotion and with my staff discount I intend to pick up some pieces that I have had my eye on for a while. Just my luck that this day fell on my week off as the last thing I want to do is go to where I work. Today my outfit is my new spotty leggings that I brought on Tuesday and as I am wearing a lot of black I decided to accessorise with silver as the polka dots on the leggings are silver my DIY body chain goes perfectly and I have finished off the outfit with Topshop fringed cardigan and Miss Selfridges boots.

Ok I was not quite feeling that look so I have changed this is what I am actually wearing omg too much time on my hands. I changed my shoes, my dress and added the hat, necklace and bangles. Oh and I seriously need to invest in a better camera or take lessons apologise :).

Save Luella

It is a shame about Luella Bartley's backers pulling out. Hopefully someone will come to her rescue as she really is a great British designer and I have been a fan of hers for a while. I love her girly looks with a rock chic edge and Topshop collections always had a Luella feel about them. I have posted some of my favorite pictures from her S/S10 collection and these are beautiful and very Luella lets just hope that we do get a chance to see these.

If you want to show your support there is a face book page Save Luella.

Boho Who

I had a dental check up today and this is what I wore. I am wearing some of my new purchases from my shopping extravaganza yesterday. The long gillet was a bargain £18.00 from Primark I had driven to a total of three different shopping centres and finally found one in my local Primark. The necklace is from New Look they are offering 3 for 2 at the moment on accessories so I brought this and two belts. I finished the outfit off with a felt hat from New Look also brought yesterday I did not wear this to the dentist as it would not really of been practical. The dress is from Day Birger they do the best tunics and cute dresses. As it was raining I wore my over the knee boots. I like this outfit and I am so happy that I eventually found a longer length gillet.

Playing around with the picture size is this too big????

Birthday Outfit No: Two

I have had a great day shopping and have brought some great bits that I am sure you will see soon. Now I am off for the evening with my friends. I have changed into my evening birthday outfit. The lace shirt is old I brought it in 2001 for my birthday so I thought it was the right time to wear it again I brought it from Karen Millen and it has amazing charms around the collar. I teamed it with my vintage leather shorts and Topshop shoes. The belt is a necklace. I took Kimi from Ninjin-Loves advice and wore a blazer instead of a fur coat and I love the look. I have added a couple of pictures of the outfit with my vintage fur cape that I won on ebay last week I think it gives the look a Kate Moss feel sorry about the quality of the last pictures having camera problems and not much time to re-take them. I am also sweeping my hair to the side I kind of like it.
