December 2012

Hey everyone!

Wow, it has been soooooo long since I last blogged! I have had the best intentions but the Christmas season ran away with me and with that, New Year and jumping in with both feet to a brand new job in the first week of 2013 - here we are!!

So... a little catch up of the last month to say goodbye to 2012, the year I started to consider blogging properly and spending some time on it. And then onto 2012, baby!!

I won the gorgeous & lovely Gabriella Not So Basic Fashion's Sanctuary Spa giveaway!! So pleased! Can't wait for a trip to London & a pamper in the Spring!

Winter Jumpers & Christmassy Nails

So while doing my Christmas shopping this year during the cold snap we had a few weeks ago, I may or may not have bought myself a few treats too...

pink jumper - Primark

cream jumper - Primark

Peace earrings - New Look

Collar necklace - Primark

pink stone ring - Primark

gold spike necklace - Primark

(l - r) Jo Is In The House Nail Polish - H&M

SLE 2012 - Barry M

Snowflakes - Models Own

Red Glitter - Barry M

Stick on Gems - Primark

I was in serious need of comfy, warm jumpers, and not so much the other bits!! But I am loving all the Christmassy nail varnishes and will definitely be rocking festive nails over the coming weeks until Christmas Day! I'm thinking of experimenting with the holographic glitter polish from H&M and the Primark gems for an OTT New Years nail look...

Have you picked up any bits for yourself while shopping for others? We're all guilty of this! (I hope!!)

No 7 Stay Perfect Nail Colour

Just a mini blog post to say - HOW Christmassy and fab is this nail colour! I love it!

This is a nail polish by No 7, its called Salsa and it is a deep red, with a kind of metallic finish. I wore this while putting up my Christmas tree this weekend and felt super Christmassy!!

Have you put your tree up yet? Are you excited for Christmas?

Sparkly Christmas Party Dresses

Now it is officially Winter, it is drawing ever closer to Christmas party season and with that comes sparkly dress season!

A sparkly sequin dress is quite possibly the most feminine item of clothing a woman can own, and if I could I would own hundreds and float through the city in a haze of sequins and colour. If only!

As it's never too early to start planning for a special occasion (those that know me know that this is one of my mantras), I have compiled my absolute favourites from across the web.

Enjoy!
