The pictures above are ones I took on my phone while I was out shopping in London yesterday (hence the terrible quality). We caught the tube to Marble Arch and made our way down towards Oxford Circus and Regent Street and spent the whole day shopping and stopping for, much deserved, coffee breaks!

The photos below are of the things I bought that I thought I'd share with you...

Necklace - Newlook £7.99 
Bobbi Brown brush and eye liner - Selfridges - Brush  - £22, Eye Liner - £17.50
Liquid Eyeliner - Steel Ink 31
Nail Varnish - Topshop- £5
Bag full of underwear - Marks - £10
Denim skater skirt - Newlook - £14.99
So my sister got back from Australia two weeks ago. It's been really nice just going shopping, out for meals and just generally hanging out with her again. She was also kind enough to buy me the Bobbi Brown eye liner and brush, as a very early Christmas present, which I picked out, and had put on me by a make up artist, in Selfridges. I was nearly as happy with the iconic yellow Selfridges bag as I was with the beautiful make up! I had such a great day in London yesterday although the shops didn't blow me away and I would have liked to have bought more (seen as though most of these places were the UK flagship stores, they should've been a lot better). Besides a few hiccups, the company was great and I love love love the things I bought/ was given!

What do you think of my shopping?
Where's your favourite place to shop in London?

Also, I have recently been featured on A Place on the Bookshelf if you want to check out the interview. The girl behind the blog, Charl, will be featured in a guest post on my blog later this week so keep an eye out!

Party Season = Party Dresses!!

Sadly I have no money to buy any Party Dresses but HEY! a girl can still look, right? A girl can also still post about it. Looking is free thank goodness. So yes, as I was saying...I'm poor. So poor, that I am attempting to stretch £10 further than it will ever possibly go. I'm making jams and chutneys, jewellery, cards and sweets - believe it or not, I have at least 9 people to buy for! Normally it would be more like 15 but my friends and I have decided to just go out for Christmas this year and leave presents. We all could do with saving a few pounds and Christmas is about the company not the presents. Well that's what they say anyway!

Back to fashion. I love buying myself a couple of new dresses around Christmas and knowing that I have at least two of my outfits sorted. This year however, buying presents has to be my priority. I like to buy something quite colourful or sparkly and also something quite simple and versatile. Then I can mix the outfits around and make a few different outfits out of two dresses. This year I am making use of the clothes I already have. Luckily I have plenty of dresses so I should be at the majority of events I attend...

Here are a few of my favourites:


And then again in purple...

P.s will soon be posting what I have made for Christmas so far and also some outfit posts of my favourite party dresses in my closet.
