Topshop peplum top

I want this top in every colour! It is so comfy and flattering and at only £16 its a definite bargain.
(Yes I am fully aware there is a small bench next to me... We are at my mums and the kids like to sit on it to watch tv lol)

My new onesie and Topshop dress

I've wanted a light weight onesie for ages and had spotted one in Topshop, but at £34 I just couldn't justify spending that much on 'lounge wear'. When I came across this leopard print one in New Look for only £15 I jumped for joy.
I also bought this coral dress from Topshop for £34. I'd seen these style dresses on In Love With Fashion .com and liked the petrol coloured one. I didn't order one though as I wasn't sure if the style would suit me. When I saw this dress I had to try it on and it looked bloody lovely! Will do an outfit post featuring it at the end of the week. I also bought a maroon coloured peplum top from Topshop but it looks naff photographed on the hanger. Will show you when I get round to wearing it.

OOTD and naughty Topshop purchases

Today I popped into town with my friend from next door. Here's what I wore...

Sorry for the bad quality photos, I used my iPhone as my camera has died.

I threw over a good old Primark blazer and McQueen scarf.

Closeup of my sparkly sequinned leggings and shoes.

I've had these leggings and shoes for about 2 years now. They are my all time favourite leggings EVER, I got them in the sale from Oasis for about £20. The shoes were a bargain too, from New Look... I wasnt too sure about them at first as they are like casual pumps but with heels.. however, they are so comfy and they grew on me really quick. Can't remember how much I payed but I love em.

My trip into town was quick but I still managed to pick up two things from Topshop, in the sale. I love a good sale!


Ear cuff was £7 down to £3.50. Necklace was £15 down to £7.50

There was so much more I wanted to buy but Mr.A has put me on a spending ban (again!). Boooo!

OOTD

This was yesterdays outfit, something simple and comfortable. I was to have minor skin surgery at 11am so didn't bother with make up (hence the headless photo, I looked awful). I was meant to be having a lump in my neck removed but when I got there the surgeon told me I needed general anaesthetic as the lump isn't just on the skin, its deep down. So now I've got to wait for an appointment with an ear, nose and throat specialist. I've already had surgery on my neck twice before to remove a gland, the surgeon I saw yesterday thinks this lump is linked.
We are back home now, after a week at my mums, I'm looking forward to getting back to my regular exercise regime, it bugs me so bad when I don't exercise!
Anyway, here is yesterdays outfit....


These leather look leggings from Next are so comfortable, way more comfy than my usual cotton leggings believe it or not! The cross t-shirt from Topshop is great too, I love oversized tops.

Cross tee from here £22
Leather look leggings from here £22

New Purchases

Helllllloooo! I'm back! Had a very eventful weekend in London with the girls! I'm going to post about it when I have more time, Ozzy is being a clingy whingebag at the mo, he won't let me put him down. 
These are a few bits I bought on Friday (except the OPI nail polish, my friend gave it to me). 

From left, clockwise- Sally Hansen airbrush legs, Muppets OPI polish in Divine Swine, Soap and Glory "Show good face" foundation, Barry M lipliner in red, Barry M kohl eyeliner in white, Barry M lipgloss in red,  feather necklace from Topshop (reduced from £16.50 to £1.50! Bargain!)

Closeup of Divine Swine, can't wait to try this.

I love this foundation! I usually use Bourjois Healthy Mix but this looked interesting as it is also a primer. I am so glad I bought this! It had a dewy finish without being greasy, medium coverage and lasted all day. My new fave :-)

Left to right- Barry M lipliner, eye liner and lipgloss. 

The lipgloss came free from Boots as I spent £6 on Barry M products.  It is a lovely vibrant red but unfortunately bled around my mouth and I looked rather silly! I actually bought a nail varnish too but I am at my mums and forgot to bring it with me.
The airbrush legs is one of my favourite products for a night out. It covers all blemishes, evens out your skin tone and comes in a range of shades. My legs are covered in bruises at the moment, they just keep randomly appearing!

Do you use any of these products?

I want...

Hello little dragons, I haven't done one of these posts for awhile, I don't know why because as my mother says "I am always on the want". There's not a day that goes by where I don't spot something I'd like, my bookmark page on my laptop is full of links to items I'd love to buy so I've selected a few to show you...


-The Topshop heels are just ah-ma-zing! Shame they are £95 though :-(
-I absolutely LOVE the shoe-chains idea! Such a fab way of changing a pair of heels. I love the fact these have spikes on them too, they're right up my street!
-The Helen E bronzer is something I purchased from a Beauty event years ago. It was so good! The glow it gave me was nothing like I've ever been able to achieve before. I re-purchased this a few times until I found a cheaper alternative. I miss the bronzed glow it gave me though and I really want to buy some more (I just hope they haven't changed it!)
- The above the knuckle ring from Wire Jewellery is so pretty but this particular design is sold out :-( If they get any more in I shall definitely be purchasing!

30 Day Challenge- Day 12, A colour I like to wear

I'm going to be really boring here and say black (sorry!).
Here's why I love black-


-It is slimming!
-Versatile, goes with every other colour
-Fail safe- black goes with every skin tone and hair colour so you can't clash!
-Popular- you are guaranteed if you choose black there is going to be something suitable in every shop. Go for any other colour and you find 100's of different shades that are hard to match.



Of course I love other colours too, my favourite colour is red. But when it comes to choosing my favourite colour to wear, its got to be black.

What colour do you like to wear/ wear most?

30 Day Challenge- Day 10, Current fashion/style I like

I really love the glitter/sequin trend at the moment. Its so Christmassey and great for all the parties. Glitter is fabulous any time of year but the best sparkly items come out during the winter season, I just love it!



What trend are you loving at the moment?

30 Day Challenge- Day 9, Favourite pair of shoes

I automatically thought of my Louboutins when I read today's challenge but you have probably had enough of seeing pictures of them! They are my favourite pair of shoes but I love these Topshop boots just as much so I guess I have two favourites, is that allowed?
 I have worn these to death as they are so comfy and easy to walk in. I can even run in these babies!  My husband bought them for me about a year and a half ago and I have never got bored of them.


You can tell they have been worn alot can't you?!

Topshop Love

Im going into Newcastle tonight for my friends birthday. This will be the first time Ive been out since my hen-do which was 14 months ago! Im so excited, but a little nervous too. None of us have been to Newcastle for a night out before so have no idea wheres good to go... watch us end up in some working mens club for over 50's watching an Abba tribute. Haha! Would certainly be memorable. I will try and post an Outfit Of The Night before we leave but if not, it shall be up tomorrow. Im taking my camera with me so shall be posting lots of very drunk photos too :-)

Ive added more to my Christmas list, I hope Santa thinks Ive been good enough this year ;-)
