Christmas Outfit + Accessories For Under £40!

So, you've completed your Christmas shopping, bought enough lights to guide a plane onto a runway, put the tree up & arranged plans with your family for Christmas Day. You've written all your cards & bought enough sherry to last you till next Christmas, but is there something your forgetting..?

Oh yes, that dreaded Christmas work meal that everyone is going too. You need a new outfit, something that will stand out & make your colleagues do a double take when they see you in something other than your work uniform..

One problem, you're completely broke. You spent your last £1 buying two rolls of wrapping paper in Poundland to finish wrapping the annoyingly huge present you got for your dad. But wait.. you can get a new playsuit for a tenner, a pair of shoes & bag for £20 & a few accessories for under £40?! Surely not..

-----

So, let's start with this playsuit. £10. Yup, that's right, £10. What makes it even better is it's velvet. My absolute favourite thing to wear at this time of year, it just screams Christmas. I am in love with the halter neck style & it isn't too low cut for a meal with work colleagues (& potentially your boss!) you don't want to go to boobie! 

Now if we move on to these boots. Depending on what your doing after the meal, heels might be more appropriate but I love how a pair of boots look with playsuits. Especially ones that are as glittery as these. Plus you can never go wrong with boots for comfort compared to heels. I also wanted to include these tights. Primark tights are simply amazing. They are so cheap & as I always ladder mine, you never want to invest anymore than a few quid on a pair.

As well as being obsessed with velvet at this time of year, I had to include this fluffy clutch bag which has also worked it's way into my favourites. Just look how pretty it is! Alongside this bracelet, it will add a bit of sparkle to the outfit.

Oh & finally this gorgeous nail polish is only £1.50 & will make a beautiful top coat on top of a dark berry polish, or just on it's own to match the boots. I just had to include it!

What do you think about this outfit?

What are you wearing to your Christmas meal this year?

OOTD - Playtime



Playsuit, hat & sunnies - Primark / Shoes - Dorothy Perkins / Necklace & watch - Amazon / Nails - Models Own Hyper Gel

I don't know about you, but I love Summer. And I love playsuits. And hats.

I wore this to a family BBQ last weekend, it was the perfect outfit! I've recently gone off denim, especially shorts & even though I love my skinny jeans, sometimes I can't be dealing with the tightness, especially in the heat!

Oh.. & please ignore my deathly white legs..

Myself & James are off to Lanzarote next Monday (SQUEE) so hopefully I can top up my tan then!

& I can't leave this post without mentioning my new hat. Again, this was bought for holiday & to be worn constantly to hide my frizzy hair!

Have you been or are going on holiday this year?
Please comment below with links to your holiday posts! I'd love to see where you've been on your travels! : )

Venus' Tennis Fashion Statement



Found here

This was Venus Williams' outfit for her tennis match yesterday.. what do you think? I'm not sure if I like it or not. : /



Furious Floral

  Evening girls! Sorry I haven't blogged recently, I've been a very social bunny this week. Fast & Furious 5 came out in the UK on Thursday, so I managed to see it yesterday. I loved it, so much. It was apparently going to be the last one, but (I won't ruin it & tell you) the ending suggests otherwise.. So good!

  So I managed to grab some sun after I finished work today & persuaded my mum to take some snaps.

Honey managed to sneak in one or two.. ; D

Playsuit & shoes - Primark

  I am in love with this playsuit. I've been trying to find an over-the-top girly one for ages. Now.. the slightly embarrassing part. I actually found this in the pyjama section of Primark, but it was way too cute to keep hidden away in my bedroom all Summer! So I'm wearing it as a casual day suit. I love all the floral details & ruffle around the collar.

  How is everyone's Easter weekend going? I am so excited about tomorrow. I finally get to eat chocolate! Yay! I do however have work over the next 3 days, so not feeling that whole holiday buzz at the moment. Work is dead too, everybody's out in the sunshine, can't say I blame them!

  I'm having a night in tonight with my family, just had a chinese & about to watch Britian's Got Talent. I don't think I've been in on a Saturday for over a month..? Mmm, time for a bath & pamper sesh I think. ; D
