Squirrels ……….

Hi Lovelies,

Well it is half term this week - the weather is crazy - it still feels like summer, which is completely mad considering that it is halloween this weekend.
Today has not been as glamourous as the weather though, we have been making the hundreds of spiders who are living under our porch, causing us to walk into their webs on a daily basis homeless! A pretty horrible job - so obviously I needed to look at pretty things to get over the trauma of it all.

And I know that is is not just me who automatically thinks of UP when they hear the word Squirrel ….

I have far, far too much love for Dug, but now, thanks to Dolce & Gabbana this beauty is also going to pop into my head from now now when I hear Squirrel - JUST LOOK AT IT!!!!!

I could think of a dozen pieces I already have that I could wear with this …..

so really, if you think about it - its a versatile piece!!

Embellished Jacquard Skirt - Dolce & Gabbana £2050 (dammit!!)

There is definitely something about lace in the winter though.

It is a really sexy look to just catch a glimpse of skin when it's cold outside.

This little Topshop dress is adorable - and has sleeves

I really like the colour combination

Placement Lace Midi Dress - Topshop £68

This is cute - a casual daytime sweatshirt, but mixed up with a collar and

contrasting lace edging on the sleeves and hem

Lace Sleeved Sweatshirt - Topshop £48

and sometimes, just sometimes it pays to be a little one …….

This dress is stunning and is only available in Petite just now - it has my name ALL over it!

J'adore - and I am seeing my bestie Vic for dinner this weekend, so a little treat wouldn't hurt would it?

Also available in nude

Debutante Dress - ASOS x

Thanks for reading - wish me luck with the rest of half term ……

Sticking the boot in …...

Hi Lovelies,

Apologies for the lack of blog posts recently - life has been pretty busy and I am attempting to be good before Christmas (can we say the C word yet?) and not buy too many outfits.
So far all it has resulted in is to make me grouchy. Ok, maybe i'm not that bad - but I bloody love the word grouchy and there are not many occasions that you get to use it.

But it's good to actually be left wanting things - right? Apparently it makes us appreciate them more when we do finally buy them. Hmmm I remain unconvinced by this but it sounds good doesn't it ……

I bought some leopard boots last week and it's the first thing I have bought that both my girls just cannot get their head around - I can't even print what the elder teen said about them - so I put it to an instagram vote - the YES I adore them votes were much higher than the NO votes, so that was enough for me to justify keeping them - but lots more comments were of the - oh keep everything else neutral camp, which is probably good advice!

even Kim wearing them wasn't enough to put me off …….

The Louboutin Fifi ones rock my world ……….

They started my obsession as Monsieur L has created a whole range of leopard print shoes & bags for A/W 14

Fifi Leopard Print Pony Ankle Boots - Christian Louboutin £895

but I settled for the Kurt Geiger ones

'Scamp' Ankle Boots - Kurt Geiger

and is it wrong that I now want this little coat to go with them

(Clairey what the hell is happening to me …….)

Swing Coat - ASOS £85

and lipstick lovers, you have GOT to try the new Rimmel Provocalips.

They are all kinds of awesome and they really do stay put

I got Kiss me you Fool (a bright red)

and Dare to Pink (a pretty nudey pink)

I promise you they are well worth the try ……..
