NOW it’s starting to feel like Christmas

I was both surprised and delighted when Chiara said they wanted to send me a Christmas present and was loving this red jumper the second it arrived. Despite it’s cropped length it goes with a variety of things, for this outfit I teamed it with my New Look tall skater skirt and most faithful boots but I think it’d look just as good with jeans for day and a high waisted body con skirt for night.

There is something about red and sparkles that make me feel festive, and I think, five days away, I can officially say I am looking forward to it. It was never going to be easy this year, with the loss of my Nan and my Brother not being home but that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy it and I refuse to have yet another deprived (food wise) Christmas full of misery and sadness inside my head.

Couldn’t resist posing with our little Santa chappy; I have no idea where he came from but I love him!

Are you feeling festive now? If you decide you need a red sparkly jumper in your life then head to Chiara now…big thank you to Santa for delivering!
