BELT NECKLACES AND BIG BOOTS!

Well, I'm a day behind on the old posts but will catch up at some point soon, I'm sure. Work has been so hectic of late, there really is'nt enough hours of the day to get it all done!

Anywho, its good to be busy so I can't complain....

I wore this outfit on Sunday, when I wen't out for a late evening meal to Las Iguana's on Deansgate, Manchester.

It included the lovely vintage purple dress you could'nt see in the "Vintage, Check and Velvet" post, which I got from a car boot sale for just £2, Navy leggings from ebay and my Primark tartan blazer.

I accessorised with a chain belt around my neck (£1.50 from a Car boot sale) and my (tres fabulous) vintage Navy boots, which I heart- even though they're 2 sizes too big for me. I'm actually a size 5 but when the right boots come along, I can't say no- I just stick insoles in, add an extra pair of socks and I'm away....

VINTAGE, LACE & RUFFLES!

Well, I hope you all had a lovely weekend? Mine was'nt the best ever for personal reasons but I had a fab time on Saturday night when I wen't out with some old college friends to Restaurant, Bar, Grill in Manchester and then onto Beluga for drinks. A great night was had by all. We even sat outside by the garden heaters so it felt tres summery!...

I wore this eclectic vintage outfit which consists of a lace top, (I have'nt the foggiest where I got it from) this Stunning velvet cropped jacket which I got from Portabello market in London, a vintage waspie belt and one of my favourite gather skirts which was £45 in River Island a couple of years ago. I teamed it with some pink kitten heel boots and some big diamante stud earrings to glam up a somewhat glum feeling moi, which worked nicely. Dressing up, really does wonders to perk me up when I'm feeling blue...

BODY CON GATHERS!

Happy Friday Peeps! That time again hey!!! I had such a good time last night at the Manchester Fashion Network event, I'm actually still a bit drunk. Maybe it was the red wine... the white wine... and the cocktails that did it! I spent most of the evening talking to the fabulous, Clint Boon which was delightful, and I found out he wen't to my school- Cardinal Langley in Middleton. Small world hey?

Anywho, I wore this gorgeous body con gather dress, which is part of the Pretty Disturbia AW collection, its been a best seller for wholesale so far so we will sure it will do extremely well in retail. It will cost a mere £49.99, and will be available from the online store very soon! It's perfect for Christmas and New year parties! I teamed it with 2 snake necklaces from London, my over the knee, black suede boots and some big silver stud earrings from Peacocks for £2.

Well, I hope you all have a tres fabulous weekend, I'm very much looking forward to 2 days of relaxing, eating and sleeping, (once I've sobered up)....

VINTAGE, CHECK AND VELVET!

I hope you're having a lovely weekend eve! I'm tres excited for another fabulous 2 days off !! Tonight I'm off out to a Manchester Fashion Network event so looking forward to that also, despite the fact I can't decide what to wear! At the last event they had, I made minimal effort and a photo of me ended up in Drapers....eek.

I wore this outfit yesterday, and although the mac is lovely, my gorgeous purple vintage dress is hidden! It was only £2 from a car boot sale, and has a rar-ra hem, I teamed it with a red vintage belt from rags to bitches for £8 and this cheap but stylish Mac from Primark, which I think is oober Audrey Hepburn style. Although I don't ordinarily like checks, this is classic in monochrome. I teamed it with black leggings and these beautiful purple satin peep toe shoes which I wore as a bridesmaid last year. They are really comfortable considering how high the heels are. Purple is such a great winter colour....

RETRO BRIGHTS!

Good afternoon peeps! I'm being tres naughty today and missing my ballet class. My poor ballet buddy has Swine flu and my left knee has only just recovered from last weeks intense dance class. O well, there's always next week...

This retro and tres bright ensemble is what I wore yesterday which includes an ultra bold orange polo neck from H and M, a timeless Navy Bolero-shrug from a car boot sale, Navy leggings from Ebay and this kitsch little H and M, mini skirt which I bought from a car boot sale for £2 years ago. I think it looks unbelievably vintage, I love it.

Unusually, I did'nt accessorize, but then there is so much going on with all the colour, less is more as they say...

O dear, I've just realised how much my tan leather cowboy boots are in need of a polish... dreadful!...

PURPLE PASSION!

Well I truly feel Winter is upon us, as I watch the rain pour down outside, and grab for my cardigan. There is something about September which means I don't want to get out of bed in the morning and would love nothing more, than to hibernate until Christmas.... is it just me?

Yesterday was just that, but I managed to drag myself from my cosy bed and popped on this classic, purple mini skirt from H&M, with a purple vest from Zara, chunky, cream beads from a car boot sale ( for £1), a sheer lace top from Topshop and this oversized black cardigan with floral broach from Primark.

I teamed it with my fabulous suede over the knee boots and had a hot pot of tea to perk me up, ready to start another busy week in fashion.....

BACK TO BLACK!

I had a lovely relaxing weekend, and would have loved just a few more days to catch up on sleep and rest! I must be getting old.... I hobbled all weekend due to a very stiff, swelled knee cap from over doing it at Ballet class on Wednesday. This did not aid my dancing skills at the 30th birthday party I wen't too on Saturday evening. As if I did'nt look comical enough dancing, not being able to bend one knee certainly did'nt help!..

Anywho, I felt very Azzedine Alaia in this body con dress from River Island which was £44.99 teamed with black leggings, Satin dolcis shoes and a diamante necklace from Marks and Spencers. Its not very often I wear head to toe black as I love colour, but sometimes its just nice to keep it simple and classic....
