Brrrrr...argggggg




Jacket: Primark   Jumper: Topshop   Trousers: H&M   Boots: Primark   Scarf: Gift   Bag: H&M   Hand chain: Topshop   Stack rings: Primark

Not got any new photos at the moment as this week we have moved into our new flat, very nice as very pretty, not so nice as no internet (not helpful for last minute Christmas shopping, grrr!) so am back in the old house currently stealing some internet time! Not that I didn't know already, and was the original idea for starting this blog, but have way too many things! The amount of clothes I found that had forgotten about (bf was none too pleased with the amount of clothes still with tags on!) but I do find it nice to rediscover again!

Took these when out and about before the ones in the previous post, just love the big knit bits at the moment, the longer the scarf the better I am saying, mostly because the more I can wrap it around the warmer I am! Am trying to get pregnant sister into her maternal nature and start knitting me something, so far it wouldn't be enough to cover an ant.

If it ain't...baroque


Jumper: Glamorousuk.com   Trousers: H&M   Earrings: Topshop

I apologise for any spelling mistakes but currently can't feel my fingers whilst typing this, had to go out on some errands quite early this morning and it's soooooooo cold! Am now back home and don't plan on moving off the sofa again today, wrapped up and staying that way!!! The quick photo taken above after I found the jumper the other day, has been in a few magazines to go with the baroque trend, and just came across by accident - always when you not really looking for anything!

Here, featured on the Look magazine site, shows how similar it is to a Stella McCartney style one and I like the idea of wearing with tailored trousers and come black boots. Also liking this one, here, from Zara and the panels on this pencil skirt, here, at River Island for a more vampy look. For a brighter look there is also this white dress from River Island too with gorgeous waist pattern, here. Be careful of spillages on it though!

Same old...same old





 Jumper: Primark   Skirt: H&M   Boots: Primark

Few more pics from the other day, here, another jumper thought would go well with the leather skirt and funky spike boots. God knows why I look so grumpy in the photos, really wasn't, was playing about with the camera self timer and probably one of those times when you are waiting for the timer to go off...and waiting annnnnd then it gets you when you don't think it's going to go off!

Currently watching the rather pregnant sister and not so coordinated brother-in-law trying to assemble their new Christmas tree, is like watching a comedy show where one falls over the other! Shall post up a tasteful and arty Instagram photo when it is completed, (or on fire, whichever comes first!) on Facebook, check out the page, here.

Bear...hug






























































Jumper: River Island   Hand chain: Primark

So this was said jumper from the previous post, here, a long forgotten one that was hiding at the back of my wardrobe. It was from when I was having a phase of buying anything vaguely animal related for clothing. Was bit more for the novelty factor but definitely a good find in this chilly weather, must dig out the biggest scarves I have and, for some reason, only have one pair of mittens atm, cosy but not the most practical!

As said before, here, the hand chains are everywhere at the moment and I have a couple of simple ones like the Urban Outfitters bird one in that post and a couple of just Topshop beaded single chain ones but found this one in Primark last week and liked the over the topness of it! Thought could work quite well with understated outfits of just jeans and basic jumpers to add a little something to it.
