Gin, Wine and Vodka.



Tonight was a meal out with the parents in the village which involved delicious food and lots of alcohol.
I love this dress as it's totally a copy of Carrie's dress from the opening scene from the Sex and the City film, as is the belt. It does feel very summery though so to winter it up I added my Jane Norman long sleeved top, Wallis shrug (my Mum's as forgot to bring a black jacket home), Marks and Spencers tights and Zara shoes. I also got a picture of my gorgeous new earrings I got for Christmas. My dress and belt are ASOS.

Happy Christmas!

So, did we all have a fabulous Christmas?! I hope so!

I was back in the UK for a family Christmas full of turkey, mince pies, Christmas pudding, pigs in blankets, Christmas cake, gravy, cider, wine and bucks fizz. And the best bit of all...snow on Christmas Day!

The presents were also fabulous. Do you remember that dress I posted about back in November from Topshop? (Click here to check it out). Well my fabulous Mum bought it me for Christmas! :D She also took me on a fab shopping spree in Jane Norman where winter warmers and sparkly tops were purchased. I was very lucky to receive a gorgeous top from H&M and some sequined hand warmers (yes!) too.

Among a gazillion presents (Peter Kayed out this year :D) I also got the fab perfume Versence by Versace so I now smell as awesome as I look in all my new clothes, haha!

Happy Christmas! And I hope you enjoy all the posts that are bound to follow as I keep creating new outfits with all my new clothes :D



So here's my Christmas day outfit. New Jane Norman bubble knit jumper and long sleeved top, new sequin hand warmers from Topshop, new Topshop ring (3 quid in the sale, score)! Teamed with my Topshop hotpants and new H&M tights. I love the buckle detail around the neck of this jumper and it's really comfy!

High heels should always be worn in the snow!

In the previous post I introduced you to my new shoes from Forever 21. Well, boots really. I have discovered that they are fabulous boots not just to look at but to wear too.
For Christmas me and the family went up to Scotland where there was a lot of snow. On our final day we were off home only we couldn't get the car out. So out I jump in my new boots which have to be at least 4 inches high  to help push the big heavy Jaguar loaded up with presents and such in a few inches of snow (3 I would think) and...I didn't fall over once! I didn't break my ankle and we were able to get the car going!
All hail the fabulousness of wearing high heels in the snow, hahahaha!

Tokyo!

Sorry it's been so long in coming but here are my photos from my weekend in Tokyo with the lovely boyfriend. We had to pack light as got the night bus in and had to cart out bags around a little.
We stayed in a lovely hostel and met some lovely people there, including a couple from the UK, Liverpool to be exact. Come on the North! Hahahaha. We did Christmas shopping for the families and my lovely lovely lovely boyfriend bought me some amazing shoes from Forever 21. Which, btw, is my new favourite shop in Tokyo as it's soooooo cheap and fabulous, like H&M is at home!

We enjoyed some touristy moments and all you can eat shabu shabu. All in all it was a fab weekend!



Here I am at 7am after 8 hours on a bus! I'm wearing Primark Jeans, ABC Mart Cowboy boots,  Uniqlo shirt, ASOS belt, H&M hoody, Zara jacket and carrying my fantastic bag from a really famous market in Hong Kong that I can't for the life of me remember the name of...



 

And here we have my lovely new shoes at the famous crossing in Shibuya. Only things that have changed here are my bag is Topshop, as is the red top and black tank top and the shoes are Forever 21.

Here is a better picture of the same outfit a few days earlier with different shoes.



Shock horror! On the final day I realised I hadn't packed enough clothes so stole my boyfriend's shirt. Unfortunately it didn't photograph too well but it looked pretty good in person, even if I do say so myself!

Christmas Madness!

Aaaargh, so both mine and my boyfriends computers broke at roughly the same time, lame! So haven't been able to post anything. Also, have been mega busy what with work, tests, marking tests and getting ready for Christmas! I arrived back in the UK last night and it's snowing like mad! Haven't seen this much snow around here for ages so I am freezing! And wishing I'd packed some more jumpers. Am very excited to be off up to Sheffield tomorrow and I think a trip to Topshop and H&M for some warm clothes might be on the cards! Promise to update you with all my winter wonderland outfits soon and to post the pics from Tokyo (My boyfriend bought me some sexual shoes from Forever 21)!
After Sheffield I'm going up to Scotland with the family so not too sure on how internet connections will fair up there so I could be offline for a week or so. Have a happy Christmas and I'm sure I'll have some New Years outfit crisis or other to post about when I get back!

Kenza's Competition

So the Swedish beauty Kenza has put up a competition on her blog to win some Hills box sets. Here's my attempt to win;

Why I should win the Hills box set;
a) I live for trash TV. My secret is out, the blonder, more bimbo like the characters the more I love it.
b) Japan sucks for foreign TV! You can rent stuff but they're like 3 seasons / series behind. Lame! And downloading whole series takes up space on my and my boyfriends computers (which really annoys him when it's something he doesn't watch/thinks is crap).
c) The clothes are sooooooooo pretty! It's like a trashy, LA, teenage version of Sex and the City, loves it!
d) I really really want it............


OK, so there's my reasons. Check out Kenza's blog here.
and the competition post here.

Fingers crossed!

Just chillin' out, maxin', relaxin' all cool!



Not the most flattering angle....but anyways. Am wearing my L-chance/tatuma ribbed stirrup leggings, Topshop shorts, River Island  vest and Hello Kitty hat! Knew it would go with anything!
