I've been thinking about my doorbell...

My current obsession is rings, which is weird because I'm not much of a jewellery person. It's probably because my Olsen fetish has returned. Right now I am on the hunt for a snake ring and an armour ring. Here are some pictures of Mary Kate I found (from Olsen-love) doing what she does best; wearing lots and lots of awesome rings.

High street lust #22.

My look for this winter is quite simple; I just want a bunch of knitted jumpers mixed with leggings and boots. That's why the batwing jumper (£20) from New Look caught my eye. The leopard just gives is an extra something.

I'd wear it with VELVET leggings (£14) and some tall leather riding boots (£70). A festival pouch bag (£7) seems right, if only it came in a darker shade. To keep things moody I'd wear nail polish (£2.50) in 'claret' and the limited edition bling chain ring (£8). On cold nights, I'd tuck myself into a long duffle coat (£30, was £40) an item I've been debating over for years and a super cute faux fur trapper hat (£12). What are you planning to wear this winter?

But you could leave me standing so tall.

I look like a giant in this photo! It's too close up. My leopard print dress is from a boutique in London. It has puffy sleeves like Disney's Cinderella but it's not so obvious in the photos. My waist also looks so big. I think I'm gaining weight.

I've been feeling sooo bloated all week. I had a curry with a couple of friends on Monday but I was feeling 'heavy' even before that. I need to eat healthy this week! It was my friend's birthday yesterday and had an impromptu dinner invitation for 5pm, which is what I wore the above dress to. We had a Chinese banquet and played rhyming 'Articulate'. Afterwards, Mo and I had a few drinks (well, I had Coke because I was driving).


Did everyone have a fun Halloween? I wish I'd dressed up!

Oopsy daisy I hurt you again.

Is it just me or does season 3 Blair Waldorf not "wow" you like she did in season 1? I get that her wardrobe needs to mature, but I just don't LOVE her like I did. Don't get me wrong, she has had some nice outfits, but to me they just aren't as fabulous! For a blast to the past, I checked out GG stylist Eric Daman's collection for Revolve Clothing from last year. I like how the classic preppy shapes which have been modernised with pops of colour. Sooo Gossip Girl.

Take it easy.

Who remembers the cute + sexy Cadbury's Caramel bunny? She re-appeared earlier this year, slightly redrawn with the slogan 'still got it x'. She has been redrawn again since Giles Deacon has designed a dress and a scarf (out October 26th) for her based on the new Cadbury's Caramel Nibbles. Her fur scares me a bit.

High street lust #21.

Recently, I have discovered boohoo.com, which sells fashionable clothes for pretty good prices. I am still debating whether I should get a sequin dress or not. Will I wear it when the trend is over? I could do the full on bling with the carrie sequin shift dress (£20) or add a dash of femininity with the marielle lace sequin bow tunic (£20).

Jewellery is another one of my current lusts and my outfit would be totally fierce with the lex wrapped tiger ring (£6) and real diamante cat pendant necklace (£8). Girly touches can be added with the mirella feathered headband (£6), zena black ruffle front suedette platforms (£30) and roberta bangle set (£8). If I wanted to look tough, however, I could throw on a chelsea military jacket (£15) and grab the stella oversized clutch bag (£15).

Talk myself in, I talk myself out.

I could have had a long lie in yesterday (especially with the clocks going back) but instead I woke up early to go to two car boot sales. I bought a useless 50p unicorn ornament so maybe that justifies it. Afterwards, my friend and I went shopping in the city centre. How many faux fur coats is too much? I'm lusting after an £80 one but my Zara Kids one was only £35.

Yesterday's outfit was intended to keep me warm during the car boot. Sadly, I forgot to prepare for rain but I just used my scarf as a shawl. The shorts I wore used to be full length jeans but I went scissor happy again.


Can you tell I love my sequin beret? I wish I had bought the heart tights from Miss Selfridge instead of Topshop. They are cuter AND cheaper DD:

In other words, please be true.

Had a lot of birthdays this week. Four, to be exact. On Tuesday night I went to play bingo to celebrate one of them. It was surprisingly fun but you have to really concentrate! In other news, I'm becoming rather exhausted. I really want a week off to do nothing but sadly that's not possible.

I've also been ill for over a week. Feeling better now, my sore throat is gone so I just have to contend with a blocked/stuffy nose. The above outfit is what I wore for a quick trip to the supermarket on Saturday with my mum. I know, I'm so cool!


A big thank you to my new followers ♥♥
