06.12 day of rest
Finally, a day to relax after a hectic few days…I forget how exhausting December is, so full on.
It’s been fun though, Friday I went Christmas shopping with my Dad [something I always dread, then always love…he’s such a Christmas fan!]
We got presents for Mum; it’s her birthday three days before Christmas, too, and he decided to go wild and spoil me with some fantastic tights from M&S and a new pair of flat black boots, due to my studded ones already breaking after only two months.
I also had an orthodontist appointment, after being re-referred, and as of Jan 19th I’ll be getting my FIFTH set of braces, ugh. Last ditch attempt at fixing my damn horrible teeth.
For shopping I wore a double denim ensemble, due to being lazy, more than anything else, and my new best friend; super soft snood courtesy of my Mum being fed up of me complaining of the cold 😉
(Ugh, I sound spoilt!)
Yesterday I worked in the morning, and this was definatley the start of Christmas food shopping madness,
it always amazes me by how much people buy just for one day! Haha…oh but so many gorgeous treats about.
This week Mum is off for 5 days (hurrah!) and we’re going to go on a card writing, present wrapping, parcel packing spree,
and have a girly day of shopping!
What are your plans?
How organised are you for the big day?
What’s your dream festive outfit?
I have my eye on this dress from River Island
But I don’t think my meagre budget stretches that far right now!

03.12 what I wore yesterday
Hello, how is December treating you? Good luck to those who have already entered the giveaway; and for those who haven’t, what are you waiting for? It’s open till Tuesday….go now!
Yesterday I experimented with something new-ish for me, in the form of black trousers. Borrowed from my Mum, these Zara trousers are so comfortable, I think they make a warmer change from dresses. As I didn’t have to leave the house, there was no need for thousands of layers, so I dug out a leopard print body I bought back in the Summer (oh how I miss the Summer!) and had yet to wear.
I have a busy few days coming up, with appointments, work and such, so outfit posts *might* become scarce, depending on how late I’m running and if I have time to take photos! We shall see though, I’m becoming very bored of my wardrobe lately, everything feels so…same-y. Must get more creative!
What do you do when you feel stuck in a wardrobe rut?

So…on with the giveaway. The prize is this gorgeous Alice in Wonderland “Alice Through the Looking Glass” keychain mirror.

30.11 grey
Wow, I can’t believe it is the last day of November, how scary is that? In a months time, Christmas will be over and we’ll be getting ready to celebrate the coming of a New Year, and indeed, a new Decade. Has anyone got plans already? I wish I could say I have…but I don’t. We tend to decide at the last minute what we’re going to do.
Finally we have a break in the rain today, but it is so cold, my outfit is made up of lots of layers and my faithful thermal tights.
Tomorrow, I’ll be marking the start of the festive month by hosting my first giveaway on this blog; so make sure you check back.
