Tuesday 28.08.12

After the winters day that we experienced yesterday (I honestly do not think the rain stopped at all during day light hours and it was so chilly) I did not feel like risking bare legs today!!
I do, however, feel that it is just a wee bit early for the tights and feel that this look is very dark for August.

Today's look is:

Skirt - Charlotte Russe
Cami - Primark
Jumper - H&M
Shoes - Christian Louboutin

I had a fabulous weekend with my family - the weather was not great but we still managed to get out and about and have lots of fun together.
On Saturday we collected out wedding pictures (the proofs) from the photographer, we then went to get a birthday gift, afterwards we went to a local farm park with tea room for some lunch and a play outside. Sunday was spent at a family birthday party.
This weekend will be quieter and I am very much looking forward to it.

Saturday 16.06.12 A Birthday Night Out!

Saturday was my birthday - I am now the grand old age of 31!!

It was a lovely but very busy day. The morning was spent with my fabulous family, we popped into town to get some bits for lunch and a very quick look in the shops. The weather was awful so it was just a very quick look. Then after lunch I had my wedding day make up trial. It went very well and I am pleased with the look. But we have decided that it will need to be a tad stronger on the day.

After the make up it was then on to the dressmakers for the dress fittings! I got to put my beautiful dress on again and wow, I still am so much in love with it! The bridesmaids dresses are stunning and I hope that they are going to be as striking on the day as I hope them to be. Miss O had a try on of her dress too and she looked just fabulous!!

The outfit pictures are from my birthday dinner. We went to a local restaurant for dinner and drinks with some friends. It was a lovely night and I am so happy with the outfit. It was so comfortable to wear, it was light and summery, yet it was still a good look on a very wet June night.

My birthday look was:

Trousers - H&M
Junper - H&M
Necklace - Charlotte Russe
Shoes - Christian Louboutin


** I must practise my full on laughing/smiling as I do not want wedding pictures to have me with my eyes all screwed up!!

Saturday 10.12. - A night out!!

As I am self employed I do not have works Christmas party, so for all that we have lots on in December I do not have the worry of finding a Christmas party dress or outfit.

However, this year my good friend turned 30 and decided to have a festive night out and dinner to celebrate. As this was my only dressy night out I did not want to go too over the top, but I wanted to look festive and dressed up.

The sequin blazer came into stock a few weeks before we went on holiday and I took one to wear over a black jumpsuit to a family wedding. I knew that I wanted to wear it again during the festive season, so it was the first part of my night out look.

While we were away the dress was delivered to the shop stocks and I loved how it was comfortable and casual jersey with the cute lace detail. Having just spent 10 days in the sunshine I decided to be brave and go with bare legs.

All in all I really like the look and will wear it again.

Night out look was:

Dress - Blend
Blazer - Blend
Shoes - Christian Louboutin
