DOLLY PARTON STYLE DENIM!

How Dolly Parton is this shirt? I saw it in a Charity shop and could'nt make up my mind if I loved it or hated it! I decided it was that bad, it was good so happily paid £7 for it! Not only is stone wash denim, it has applique flowers, metallic stitching, studs and coloured beading, as well as batwing sleeves! Kitsch indeed. I teamed it simply with a long black top and flared full circle jeans which I got from and MFN sample sale as the shirt says it all! I wore brown cowboy boots and back combed my hair, 80's style to finish off the look and wen't out for some good ol' Sunday car boot shopping to buy more vintage goodies.....

A £4 FLORAL MAXI DRESS FROM WAREHOUSE!

I hope you all had a mucho dandy weekend? I started and ended mine at the Manchester Christmas markets, which I loved! with some Go-karting, Antiques shopping and a trip to Cheshire Oaks thrown in for good measure- where I picked up this bargainous £4 dress from Warehouse- not too shabby hey! I teamed it with some comfy black boots from Varanni in Manchester, this chunky grey belt from Ebay and this vintage necklace which I really should wear more often, and I have matching earrings to also. I can't for the life of me remember buying them so I think it was a presnt. I also popped on my fave black sequin ring from a MFN sample sale. Now, back to work... and reality after a fun filled 2 days off :(... doh.

VINTAGE STRIPES, CHUNKY BELTS & A NECK TIE!

I don't know about you but I'm exhausted today- and I had Yesterday off work! Although I was up at 6am, off to Alton Towers, got stuck on a cable car and then had a meal out and drinking until 2am! and thats just Yesterday...... Lordy indeed!
Anywho, I wore this lovely vintage striped dress the other day which was from ebay for just £8. Its a tad on the long side so I hitched it up with this chunky black patent leather belt. I popped on my beige boots and accessorised only with a big chunky sequin ring which was £5 from the Manchester Fashion Network Sample Sale. I love the neck bow on this dress as its attached so I don't lose it in the wash- I have a tendancy to do that! Accessories that are attached- I love the idea.

PRETTY DISTURBIA DIP DYE MINI DRESS & KNEE SOCKS!

I hope you all had a fine and dandy weekend! I had such a lovely restful one- except for getting addicted to season 1 of Dexter, which I nearly watch all of in one day!... Its mighty good, if you've not yet seen it!
Anywho, I wore this on Friday for relaxed day in the office. It consists of some grey marl leggings and my black cut out shoulder top, which I've had since I was about 12! I popped on over it this Pretty Disturbia dip dye stripe mini dress- £32.99, with some silver knee socks and comfy black wedge boots. I accessorised simply with my silver bangle, a black sequin ring ( £5 from the MFN sample sale) ad a studded, black leather belt- 50p on a car boot sale, with a touch of rouge on my lips and nails- so it was'nt all drab grey and black like the weather in Manchester that day!....doh.

RAINBOW SPLASHES & SHRUGS!

I hope you had a super dandy weekend? I had a lovely sunshine filled one in Surrey which was just delightful! It really feels like Spring has now finally sprung with summer not far behind!

This outfit reflects the summery brightness I was feeling yesterday, with a slight hint of fear it might snow again at any point (thus the big winter boots- just in case!)
The halterneck is a classic pink number from Karen Millen for £39.99, teamed with a colourful splash print netted skirt from primark for £15, (purchased last summer). I popped on a turqouise shrug to match from the MFN Designer sample sale for £20 and a chunky necklace again from the sale for just £4. This is a good combination of designer items with discount pieces! How I do love a bargain....

POKADOTS AND MUDDY BUMS!

A Happy fun filled Friday to all!
Well, This is what I wore yesterday when I decided to fall on my elbow! Imagine this outfit with a dishevelled looking face and big muddy bum and and thats what I looked like by the end of the day! I learnt my lesson though and donned myself some chunky PVC docker boots with big grips today at lunch, so hopefully no more muddy bums for me this week!

Anywho, I wore a simple grey marl polo neck and leggings, both of which are from Topshop, under this retro style pokadot rara dress from H&M which was just £5 in a charity shop. I'm wearing a designer shrug which I got for £20 from the MFN sample sale (which I'm working on Tomorrow) and a belt which I borrowed from a vintage dress. Then there's my "killer" over the knee boots which did indeed cause the humorous elbow injury, and I have not yet forgiven them.
Right, off for dinner at Nando's once I've finished up here in the office... have a fabulous weekend peeps and pop by to The Triangle for the Sample Sale tomorrow if your around- There's Pretty Disturbia designer samples for as little as £10!

FESTIVE SPARKLE AND DIP DYE EFFECTS!

Well I hope you had a fine relaxing weekend? I worked at the MFN Sample Sale on Saturday but had a great time doing it, as always!
Yesterday was a day of watching Sex & the City and eating Bacon butties in bed, as well as Christmas shopping and I had a warming dose of Harry Ramsdens fish and chips to keep me going! it was delicious.... I really must start back on that exercise regime to cancel out my piggish eating next week!....

I wore this sparkly dress from Topshop, with my vintage velvet belt from Rags to Bitches, wet look leggings, a Pretty Disturbia long sleeve dip dye top for £34.99 and my tan leather cowboy boots. I accessorised with a stunning vintage 1950's necklace which I got from a car boot sale in Clitheroe for £8! Talking of car boot sales, I did try and go to my usual one yesterday morning and it had stopped for Christmas!! It just was'nt the same, not picking up some second hand bargains in the early hours of a cold brisk Sunday morning....
