Belated Merry Christmas

Hi All!!

I am almost a weeek late with this post but better late then never I guess? I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas this year and are enjoying the holidays whilst we still have some more of it left! Christmas 2011 has been amazing for me, it could not have gone any better! Not only did I get to be merry, have fun, relax and eat until I thought I would burst but I have been very VERY spoilt! Trust me, there is a video post on it's way next week to show and tell of all the goodies I received this year so watch out for that.

I am still without a camera so you will have to stick with me until I find the lead for my old digital camera or until I purchase a new one. For now here is what I wore on Christmas Eve....

Dress: Primark
Belt: Primark

I didn't wear the antlers all night I might add but hey when it's Christmas who cares! Unfortunately my family received some sad news Christmas morning of the sad passing of my great aunt in Jamaica. Understandably the family were quite upset, especially my grandad who was her sibling. My family is strong so we will be fine!

So again, sorry for the lack of posting, i'm having a bit of a break enjoying being lazy in the holiday season but I will be back in full force in the new year!

Have an amazing New Years whatever you decide to do.

Outfit of the Night: Works Christmas Party

Hi All!!

Last weekend was my works christmas party at The Radisson Hotel. This year I decided to recycle an outfit that you have seen me in previously and is one of the first recycled outfits to appear on my blog. Unlike the dress I wore last year which I have never worn again since. Yes ladies and gentlemen; I wore my bridesmaid dress to another major event...

Dress: House of Fraser

A close up of the bead detail...


I also had my nails done to go with my dress...

Ring: Gift from Hawai
Bracelet: Spoiltbaby

I got a few compliments on this dress which is always nice to hear.
What did you wear to your works Christmas party?

Christmas Dresses on a Budget

Hi All!!

Firstly the Christmas competition is now officially closed! Any entries made from now will not be counted! For those who have already entered a winner will be announced this Sunday so Good Luck everyone!

Secondly, my digital camera has decided to die on me this week and I am gutted to say the least! Right before Christmas too, so I can't take hundreds of photos like I planned! But for now I will have to revert back to my old Canon camera which I have to say I am not a big fan of and also use my phone camera for the moment. So please bare with me if any photos are of not very clear etc!

Now... If you still have a Christmas party to go to and are still looking for that party dress that stands out to you but on a tight budget I thought I would do a post on this Seasons dresses I have taken a fancy to. All dresses are from www.missguided.co.uk and £50 or less...

I love the colour of this dress
and can imagine it teamed with a sparkly skinny waist belt

£17.99

Red and sequins are my guilty pleasure

£24.99

Skater dresses are in at the moment and this has to be one of my favourites

£24.99

I do prefer the long version but a statement dress nonetheless

£33.99

I haven't purchased from this website since I bought my dress for Richard's graduation party but I would buy from there again and there are some fab Jeffrey Campbell inspired boots that I think I need to purchase asap!!

What will you be wearing this Christmas?

Christmas at Bicester Village (UK)

Hi All!!

I wanted to do a post about Bicester Village which is situated in Oxfordshire and for those of you who don't know much about this place please read on. I have been to Bicester but not for a few years now, but I would highly recommend going there for a great shopping experience and what would be better then going to a vintage shopping outlet then in the Festive Season?

   

As written on the website: Bicester Village is one of the Collection of nine Chic Outlet Shopping® Villages, operated by Value Retail. Founded in 1992, Value Retail has established itself as the only company dedicated to creating and operating luxury outlet shopping villages. Home to some 900 outlet boutiques of the world’s leading fashion and lifestyle brands, the Collection offers an unrivalled luxury outlet shopping experience for discerning shoppers in Europe. So for festive cheer guaranteed to warm the cockles of the most wintery heart, look no further than Bicester Village this December.

As well as their wonderful Christmas lights, late-night shopping on Thursdays over the entire period, and the usual exceptional in-store offers across the many boutiques, weary Christmas shoppers will find a welcome respite from their gift lists at the Christmas Tree House. This cosy festal haven sounds fab as they serve mulled wine, mince pies and the like for visitors needing a little something to restore their seasonal spirit, before hitting the stores once more. Also the lovely people over at Bicester want to give away a Santa’s sack-load of gifts just waiting to be won in the Festive Secrets competition online. Prizes range from weekends away, to stunning pieces from favorite brands, and Village Gift Cards.

I have already had a go at the competition which is really easy, if you have a browse of the website and come across a Bronze, Silver or Gold Reindeer you will be prompted to enter your details to be in with a chance of winning one of the great gifts. Alternatively if you 'like' the Facebook page, you can enter the £100 gift card and Warwick Castle tickets prize draw.

Bicester Village Festive Secrets really seems seems like a fun way to do some Christmas shopping with stores such as Dior, Agent Provocateur, Jimmy Choo and many many more!! I love entering competitions, don't you? Will you be taking part in the online competitions like me? Anyone been to Bicester Village recently or planning on making a trip there soon?
