"Santa Babee"

After opening my lovely gifts yesterday, I unwrapped this beauty, an antique brooch. I had been longing for one since I saw the Lanvin ss11 collection dress with the insect detail around the neck. I thought a brooch such as this would look great on my black cape. Thank you Santa and merry christmas everyone!

Snake Charmer

Today I found this gem in an antique shop, selling soooooo many different delights! It was only £9 pounds, very very happy.

Feelin' festive

(The thickest tights I could find!)


Relentless snowfall over London made me make a rapid decision to leave and get home to the countryside as soon as possible! Despite reaching my destination I had to abandon my car and trudge home in the thick snow...although the conditions prevent last minute panic-buying and day-to-day christmassy errands from happening, it has made me feel extremely festive. Therefore it only felt right that I don my most festive dress, a thick pair of tights and my wedges to stomp around in!

Velvet dream!

I have always loved texture and when buying/looking at clothes I always have a little stroke! I have therefore been on the look out for a few velvet pieces. I think it will be big over christmas and looks lovely in all colours, imagine my delight when i stumbled across this charity shop find- £3.50 from The Children's Society! The lining of the top is brown, so with the sleeves rolled up the colour is on trend with the 70's vibe we are seeing at the moment.

I would highly recommend flicking through the rails of EVERY charity shop to uncover some bargains to integrate with other key pieces!!
