A Style Post,,

Another! I should get dressed more often, I was meant to go and get fabric today but I seem to of ran out of time, 
I hope tomorrow is more productive, I'm exhausted!
Largely I'm sure because I decided to paint my landing, stairs and hallway in three hours yesterday.
And Molly runs away at any chance of freedom.. I especially like her very serious, running away face!

I wear: Dress- Minkpink, Hat- H&M, Boots- River Island, Bracelet- DIY, Nail Varnish- ESSIE
Molly wears: Tunic, Knickers and Boots all from Baby GAP

Hello There Antlers.

Again Primark have been killing it lately and I snagged this mint belt for £1!! £1!!!! The sandals were a
 bit more pricey at £12 but since I can't find any Saltwaters over here I thought they'd do, 
and would look very nice in the summer with these crochet shorts and a tan. 
Loving anything crochet at the moment.
And colour, cannot get enough of my pastel jeans and bright nail varnish!

Last week, I went out.

Tonight Jamie and I are snuggling under our Fort watching It's Kind Of A Funny Story both on our laptops waiting for a sunday night curry :) This weekend has been wonderful.

Anyway, this is my catch up. As I have already mentioned, well at least on tumblr, my wonderful beautiful friend Hermione is going to America for a term at the end of the month and it was her leaving do wednesday night and this is what I wore, apologies for the bad night-lighting.
Dress- Urban Outfitters, Boots (although I swapped them for flats at Herms) Topshop, leather jacket- H&M, Fur collar- ASOS, Watch- Michael Kors, Bracelets- Topshop & Newlook.

I'm pretty pleased my hair rollers stayed for once normally the curls fall straight out! And I'm now wearing my arm party on my other wrist, as it turns out Michael Kors is NOT scratch resistant!! My nail varnish is by OPI with a Rimmel Matt topcoat. I can't wait to wear this as a day dress now it's seen the night :)

Tigers, Stripes and Walruses.

Yesterday we gave Mollymoo to Jamie's mum and dad for the evening so we could go on our 'date'. The date on which Jamie was supposed to give me my watch!! But it was just as nice having already been given the watch to have a night just the two of us :) First we went to watch the Leicester Tigers, my first ever Rugby game. It was so cold, we had to share a glove! We were planning on going to the cinema afterwards to see Sherlock Holmes, but Molly had been a little clingy lately so we decided just to go for dinner in case she was difficult getting to bed. I hope we get to see it before it finishes at the cinema. We went to Terracotta for an all you can eat buffet, needless to say I'm still full! We didn't watch much of the Rugby, it was so nice just to chat we're usually so focused on Molly and her toilet trips that day to really spend time together.


Because it was so COLD I wore Jeans from Madewell, Studded shoes from Topshop (instantly regretted not wearing socks!! I brought heeled boots to change into for dinner but my feet were so numb I thought my toes might break if I put them in!) Shirt from Primark, Jumper from Madewell (SO gutted they don't ship to the UK) and Jacket from H&M, Watch Michael Kors.

Double dresses

I'm a pretty big fan of the cold. I grew up in North Wales and it was the windiest, coldest, wettest place on earth. Leicester cold is unbelievably mild to me, perfect layering weather, or so I thought. Lately it's been brutal. Each morning I've wanted to stay in bed, not even think about wearing anything other than my patchwork pyjama trousers and a thick cardie. Well, today was no exception except I had a ton of stuff to do, so I mann'd up and put Molly in her bouncer while I showered and by some miracle GOT DRESSED. My ingenious idea of wearing 'double dresses' kept me toastie all day :) I have the underneath TFNC dress in nude as well as mink, I bought them in the summer for £15 each! Half price, perfect excuse to get both.

I'm sorry for my face, I don't know why I'm apologizing for my face, it's my expressionless face! But I'm dealing with a pretty intense cough at the minute, I'm not sleeping although that came about before the cough, and my nose is like a tap, so I do look a bit drained and grumpy.

That awkward moment when I didn't focus my camera.



The peterpan collar dress- TFNC, the breton dress- UO, the jacket- H&M, the velvet shoes- Topshop, the crochet bow- Forever 21, Snood- ASOS, Knit handwarmers/mittens- My mother made me these, she owns a wool shop and can knit ANYTHING!


GOD I love her!
Sorry this isn't better quality, I didn't set it up for Jamie and he knows nothing about cameras! I'm lucky I got a tripod, he was getting rather bored of photographing me (he's only done it twice!!)

Lazy Mondays.

I am a great time waster, and yesterday Jamie and I managed to do absolutely NOTHING all day (what are bank holidays for!?). I’ve had a little run of bad luck lately with Mae my car, and her front bottom (the big bit of plastic that protects the engine) fell off when I was driving my brother to his hotel on New Years Eve! It was quite scary as I was on a dual carriageway, but I was able to pull over and James tied it back onto the bottom of the car with an old pair of Primark red tights that had been waiting to be taken back since I didn’t wear them to a ‘Where’s Wally’ night out! Hurrah for bad costume ideas! Anyhow it is now scheduled to be fixed tomorrow :) maybe our motor luck has changed for 2012 :)

I also meant to blog yesterdays outfit, modelled on my birthday bike which didn’t arrive until two days before Christmas!! I had a little go on Christmas night, after Molly had gone to bed, Jamie built it for me but last week he went to pump up the tyres and couldn’t get the pump to work! So I haven’t ridden her since. She’s lovely to play with in the kitchen though :) I went for a comfy house outfit, nothing makes me happier than prancing around in long socks.. my heating bill does not appreciate this, so my favourite cardigan from NY is very much needed to stay extra snug!
