Winter Necessities

Losing my pair my Gucci gloves left me devestated for a few days. I was absolutely gutted! I couldn't believe it happened to me!!!

Lesson learned: Never go to work with my expensive and favourite stuff specially when I'm on my night shift as I tend to nod off on the bus :(

Well, looking at the bright side of it... someone had early Christmas present.

So, to make myself a bit better for losing one of my precious possessions was to get another pair. So there was I finding myself heading to my favourite designer outlet (I love this shop because I managed to build a good relationship with their members of staff and they always look after me very well everythime I visit them). They didn't had any Gucci gloves on stock so I opted for a pair of Prada and they were a great choice and they're lovely! They keep my mits warm specially now that we're having a dreadful winter.

What about you? How's the Christmas season treating you in your end? xxx

SHOES: YVES SAINT LAURENT

>>> SHOE LADY IS BACK!!!>>>

Hello guys! Sorry for being quiet for a while... You must have been bored checking my blog without any exciting update. Well, dearies, what can I tell you? I've been so busy at work and I've not been very well this past 2 weeks. Monday last week, I came down with a horrible flu and I could never thank my boyfriend enough who has taken off work for 3 days to look after me and my son. Honey, loadsa thanks :) Your kindness will never be forgotten :)

Anyway, as Christmas season is fast appoaching and of course, we can let it slip away without celebrating it :). During the past 2 years, my boyfriend has been taking me to Freemason Christmas dinner, which of course we enjoy a lot :)... and of course for moi... it's a valid excuse to got out and find nice things to wear for the occasion. So, here I am, busy trying to put an outfit together for the night and as you probably know me... I start with the shoes... Well, I don't always start with the shoes but with anything that would grab my attention. It just happened that when I visited my favourite designer shop, they have just launched the new stuff for the season and these pair of Yves Saint Laurent shoes grabbed my atttention and decided that they were the ones I'd love to wear during the night.

So guys... browse away :)

They look bright red in this photo but they're not.


They were originally £350 but I used my £50 voucher to pay towards them so at the end, they only cost me £300... cool eh! Good thing about Flannels, is that for £1,000 you spend in the shop, you'll get rewarded a £50 voucher... How cool is that?

Actual colour

Certified killer heels indeed!

New pair of shoes means a visit to Vivienne Westwood boutique ;)

Closest match that I could find

There's my massive bag I bought (2 months ago?)

My Vivienne Westwood bags and purses collection (so far ;))

My Vivienne Westwood bags and purses collection alongside a few pairs of designer shoes (3 pairs Gucci, 2 pairs MiuMiu, 1 pair Prada, 1 pair Yves Saint Laurent. Where does it end? Well, I'd love a pair of Manolos and Louboutin... and another designer bag during our trip to London next week and that would wrap my 2008 up ;)) I'd post photos of my whole shoe and bag collection... promise... soon :)

My pretty little things before jumping back into their boxes ;)
Dust bags are sooo useful in taking care of nice things :)

You must be wondering... where's the dress? Well, I'd love a long black dress for the occasion but I'm struggling at the moment. I hit the shops and boutiques this afternoon and tried a few. One of them drowned me (it was extremely long... geez!), the other one didn't fit me... I found a lovely dress on the website but it wasn't out on the shops yet... and finally another one I've ordered online because they didn't have my size in the shop (the last one got snatched before I got there). At the moment, I'm still waiting to hear from them to find out whether they have it or not. Otherwise, I'll try my luck in London next week and I hope I'll find one eventually (well, before the party would be helpful). Gosh! I never thought finding the right dress would be this hard... Hmmm.... Wish me luck guys :)

TTFN!!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!

>>>HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!!>>>

Hello guys! I hope you all are having a fantastic time!

My boyfriend took me to a Halloween night out with his friend. They planned to have theme... 'TARTS AND PIMPS WITH A TWIST' where the girls supposed to dress up as pimps and boys as tarts. I told my bf that if he ever dressed up as a tart... I won't be walking with him but behind him... I'd be the stalker ha ha ha!

Anyway, I'm glad that they decided to drop the idea. I know it's all about having fun but I do draw the line of what I call 'fun'... Killjoy, I heared someone say ;)

Anyway, I thought I'd share a few photos taken before we went out to meet everyone :)

I wore my new Front Cover eye palette for the night. I'd be posting it soon. Watch this space :)

The dress I wore... Another Primark grab. For £12 I think it is a lovely dress.

The Outfit:

Dress: Primark £12

Tights: Boots £5

Shoes: Prada £485

As I was getting myself ready, I heard my intercom buzzz and so I thought... 'Who on earth is it, this time of the night?'. So I answered my intercom and it was my neighbour who's about in his late 40s or early 50s said he was trick or treating. I was gonna send my bf down as I was still in my dressing grown but I let him in anyway. Oh my gosh! My neighbour was wearing a skeleton outfit and carrying a little bucket for his sweets and a box of eggs. Now, you don't want to miss around with someone who's carrying a box of fresh eggs on Halloween night so I dashed for my kitchen and just managed to find a bag of sweets. Phew! That was close! So next ime, I'll make sure I've got some sweets ready for occasions like that.

What about you? How did you celebrate your Halloween night? Or day?

>>AT THE CHRISTENING

Last Sunday, I went to the Christening of my friend's baby and here were the photos we took for the day :)

BF and I :)

My Sam and I :)

This little girl won't leave Sam alone even at the reception. She was sooo sweet and I kept telling Sam off for being mean to her. He kept giving that look as if to say... 'I don't want to play with her mummy, I'd like to play with boys!' She must have been half of Sam's age

At the church with Sam looking all shy... Bless...!

JUST ANOTHER OUTFIT

>>JUST ANOTHER OUTFIT

I've been trying to find something to wear for my friend's baby's Christening and so I went around shops with my boyfriend (sweet!). Since it's summer, I wanted to wear something nice and comfortable (not so revealing because of kids around! Gosh! I'll get told off ha ha ha!). So, this what I found and think are perfect combo for the occasion. What do you think guys?

My new Prada shoes... Wooo hooo!

The shop assistant was convinced it was the bling on the heels that made me buy this pair... well, she might be right ;)
