			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>I&#8217;ve started this post at least 6 times now. Brain officially fried.</p>
<p>I have so much going on IRL atm so you&#8217;ll have to excuse me but I wanted to get the competition results up tonight and also share my new boots with you all.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/leopard2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4563" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/leopard2.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="813" /></a></p>
<p>They&#8217;re by a brand called ASH and the style is Tennessee. They are incredibly OTT and for that reason alone I had to have them as soon I clocked them. I purchased them from <a href="http://www.spoiledbrat.co.uk/" target="_blank">Spoiled Brat</a> <em></em> and the service was fab. If you&#8217;re a teeny tiny UK size 2 or 3 then hurry as they still have your size!</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/leopard3.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4564" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/leopard3.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="723" /></a></p>
<p>A bonus is that they are ridiculously comfortable and SO toasty. Downside, they&#8217;re quite heavy. I&#8217;m gonna have calves like <a href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=the+rock+naked&amp;um=1&amp;hl=en&amp;client=firefox-a&amp;sa=N&amp;rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&amp;biw=1402&amp;bih=766&amp;tbm=isch&amp;tbnid=1w0SEHc_IlmReM:&amp;imgrefurl=http://www.jonathanhoodshow.com/%3Fp%3D5030&amp;docid=v4F_j5Ozi_PZTM&amp;imgurl=http://www.jonathanhoodshow.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Rock-has-returned-to-WWE.jpg&amp;w=358&amp;h=451&amp;ei=qaklT4vwNYi30QW4yIjOCg&amp;zoom=1&amp;iact=hc&amp;vpx=1163&amp;vpy=121&amp;dur=76&amp;hovh=252&amp;hovw=200&amp;tx=132&amp;ty=124&amp;sig=105998910231178608470&amp;page=1&amp;tbnh=136&amp;tbnw=128&amp;start=0&amp;ndsp=32&amp;ved=1t:429,r:7,s:0" target="_blank">The Rock!</a> (&lt;&lt;YUM)</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/leopard4.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4565" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/leopard4.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="640" /></a></p>
<p>Check out the detailing, gorgeous mixed metal studding and distressed leather. Ugh! They&#8217;re disgustingly beautiful! And I think they&#8217;ll just get better and better with age <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Oh and my <a href="http://www.republic.co.uk/trousers+leggings/miso-leopard-print-leggings/invt/97476/" target="_blank">leopard leggings</a> are from Republic. Just £10 and I can really recommend them. Super nice silky fabric.</p>
<p><strong>AND</strong> without further ado the winner of the Technic Carnival Nail Polish is</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Screen-shot-2012-01-29-at-19.39.08.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4570" title="" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Screen-shot-2012-01-29-at-19.39.08.png" alt="" width="155" height="182" /></a></p>
<p><strong></strong>Congratulations <strong>Charli!</strong> I&#8217;ll be in touch shortly to get your postal address. Thanks so much to everyone who entered xo</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">Plaited Chain Necklace &#8211; Kate Benjamin via <a href="http://www.accessoriesdirect.com/jewellery/necklaces/" target="_blank">Accessories Direct</a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I just adore this chain as it feeds into all my current jewellery loves; statement, layers, mixed metals. It&#8217;s also a dream to wear as it is deceivingly light. I highly recommend checking out their <a href="http://www.accessoriesdirect.com/sale/" target="_blank">sale</a>, brilliant reductions and so many stunning pieces.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Next on my want list is this <a href="http://www.accessoriesdirect.com/jacey-withers-ship-pendant-necklace-necklaces/" target="_blank">Jacey Withers Ship Pendant</a>. It&#8217;d make a lovely Valentine&#8217;s/ Birthday/ Just cos it&#8217;s a Tuesday present&#8230;. <em style="text-align: center;"></em> oooh and <em>it&#8217;s</em> currently reduced as well&#8230; <em>(take the bait Matthew&#8230;).</em><em><br />
</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/leather1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-4475" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/leather1.jpg" alt="" width="420" height="412" /></a></p>

<p style="text-align: center;">Boots &#8211; River Island Sale <em>(the style is Shifty Herit)</em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">So delighted with these boots as I had been giving longing looks over in the direction of the laid-back <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/steve-madden-banddit-buckle-boot/3190804?cm_cat=datafeed&amp;cm_ite=steve_madden_%27banddit_buckle%27_boot:369060&amp;cm_pla=shoes:women:boots&amp;cm_ven=Froogle,GoogleUK&amp;mr:referralID=NA&amp;mr:trackingCode=C840715F-13C9-E011-8116-001517B1882A" target="_blank">Banddit Boots</a> but they were just too pricey. These were just twenty tiny pounds and have satisfied my urge for a less structured boot. The studding is just an added bonus <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Oh and yes, blonde. Well actually for the past fortnight I&#8217;ve mostly been bright orange as I couldn&#8217;t decide whether I was going to take the plunge with the &#8220;obnoxious red&#8221;. I got cold feet though and so I&#8217;m blonde. Forever fickle&#8230; that&#8217;s me folks <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  xo</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">P.S In answer to Why no face?! COLDSORE SIZE OF BEN NEVIS</p>

<p>Hands up who has a faux fur addiction? *raises both hands*</p>
<p>This gilet was reduced to just £30 in River Island a few weeks back. It&#8217;s sold out online but check out your local branch as mine still had a few even up until yesterday. It&#8217;s extremely cosy as you would expect and I just love the sixties vibe it has going on. I&#8217;d classify most fur as sexy but this one is definitely cute!</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/snowqueen4.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4359" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/snowqueen4.jpg" alt="" width="360" height="811" /></a></p>
<p>The hair has been scraped back into one of those ridiculous 2&#8243; ponytails that I always ridicule others for. Frankly it&#8217;s this or the chop right now as I am totally fed up with my unruly barnet.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/snowqueen2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4357" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/snowqueen2.jpg" alt="" width="360" height="466" /></a></p>
<p>My boots are from <a href="http://www.next.co.uk/x48324s5" target="_blank">Next and cost £78</a>. More than I would have liked to pay but I think this design is a forever classic and I wanted to invest in a comfortable, quality leather pair. I tried <strong>SO</strong> many on, including most notably the Topshop Dashing ones, which are around the same price but imo really uncomfortable and badly sized.</p>
<p>Next isn&#8217;t somewhere I would normally shop but they&#8217;re definitely on my shoe-radar now. If you likey too then check them out asap as these appear to be selling out fast!</p>

<p>Necklace &#8211; Urban Outfitters Sale <em>(donkeys ago)</em></p>
<p>Well how are we all doing? I&#8217;ve finally moved <em>(again&#8230;.)</em> and although there are still a mountain of boxes to unpack I&#8217;m trying to be upbeat. Not sure whether it&#8217;s a subconscious thing but this past week I have found myself dressing head to toe in black which perfectly matched my mood, well&#8230; barr Saturday night when I wore a red dress to an Xmas do *inserts grainy phone pic*</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Screen-shot-2011-12-13-at-11.51.25.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4348" title="" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Screen-shot-2011-12-13-at-11.51.25.png" alt="" width="278" height="528" /></a></p>
<p>What is a very conscious realisation though, is that wearing bright colours makes me <em>feel</em> sunnier. So this is my excuse for dressing like a real life rainbow today, and I think it&#8217;s working. That smile almost reaches the eyes&#8230; no?</p>
<h2><strong>Loving</strong></h2>
<ul>
<li>Wrapping up for Winter. Hats, scarves and mittens. I adore them all and feel happiest when bundled up in all of these things walking the dogs on a windy evening &hearts; </li>
<li>Statement necklaces &#8211; Think big &amp; mutiple layers. They dress up the simplest of outfits with minimal effort</li>
<li>Primark Super Cosy Tights &#8211; Loved these last year and once again they get a massive thumbs up from me. Who couldn&#8217;t adore fleece lined tights?! &#8216;MAZIN!</li>
<li>Sweet Potatoes &#8211; Let me count the ways I can cook thee&#8230; Delicious, nutritious and ready in a flash!</li>
<li>Getting up early &#8211; Say whaaaat? No but seriously. Hear me out. It&#8217;s 13 miles drive to the boy&#8217;s school and I like to leave around 8am to get there in plenty of time. This means I now rise at 6.45am <em>(previously I got up around 8 as boy&#8217;s school was 2 minutes drive up the road)</em>. I don&#8217;t know why but it&#8217;s invigorating getting up earlier. Everything is less manic and more organised. I need that in my life</li>
</ul>
<h2><strong>Not Loving</strong></h2>
<ul>
<li>H&amp;M returns and general customer service. I had to hold for over 15 minutes just to ask for a Royal Mail return label. This should be included as standard with Northern Ireland deliveries as unlike the mainland we cannot ring the Hermes courier direct to book returns. Not impressed</li>
<li>Unpacking &#8211; nuff said</li>
<li>My hair &#8211; I&#8217;m not sure whether the water is different in County Down but it&#8217;s not been behaving itself at all this past week. Soooooo tempted to hack it all off again but chanting &#8220;persevere, persevere, persevere&#8221; whenever the dark thoughts come</li>
</ul>
<p>xo</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Did you guess correctly? <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4313" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/asos1.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="510" /></p>
<p>I am <strong>thrilled</strong> to be working with <a href="http://www.vouchercodes.co.uk/most-wanted/" target="_blank">Voucher Codes</a> on their latest <a href="http://www.vouchercodes.co.uk/most-wanted/" target="_blank">&#8220;Most Wanted&#8221;</a> campaign. Of course, when I opened the email and read that they wanted me to road-test <strong>GLITTER SHOES</strong> on your behalf I knew it would be an obvious hardship&#8230; <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<div id="attachment_4337" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 348px">
	<img class="size-full wp-image-4337" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/asos6_edited-1.jpg" alt="" width="348" height="793" />
	<p class="wp-caption-text">Dress - River Island (2010 Sale)</p>
</div>
<p>My shoes are the ASOS Pepper Peep Toe Mary Jane Platforms <em>(bit of a mouthful)</em> in glorious ruby red. When I first opened the box I couldn&#8217;t help but squeal with delight, but having been burnt by ASOS sizing issues in the past I was also anxious that they wouldn&#8217;t fit. I needn&#8217;t have worried, the UK size 7 is refreshingly true to size. No gap at the back, no ugly overhanging toes at the front. I&#8217;d go so far to say these are my perfect fit.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4314" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/asos2.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="552" /></p>
<p>The attention to detail is excellent. The Mary Jane strap is elasticated but also has a functioning buckle. A god send in design where I am concerned as I am<em> very</em> narrow across the top of my foot and these kind of straps are usually baggy and offer little support. I love the fact that the peep toe is colour-matched to the upper. So often this is not the case and I personally think it&#8217;s a tell tale sign of a cheaper shoe when they differ. I&#8217;m always lusting after the latest Miu Miu sparkly creations but if the high street can keep getting the quality as right as it is with these I think the big designer labels are in real trouble!</p>
<p>Comfort wise they also get a massive thumbs up. So far they have withstood a night of dancing and I have zero blisters/ discomfort to report. I think it&#8217;s the concealed platform that does the trick, in fact I&#8217;ve noticed that I always favour going out shoes with this feature. All sequins are also present and accounted for. Yay!</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4315" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/asos3.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="441" /></p>
<p>Price wise these normally retail for £50 which I think is excellent value considering the finish, comfort and style however the whole Pepper range is currently on sale. Most at £37.50! Have a nose <a href="http://www.asos.com/search/pepper-platform?hrd=1&amp;q=pepper+platform" target="_blank">here</a>. I am sorely tempted to treat myself to the black glitter ones too. Can a girl<em> ever</em> have too many sparkly shoes?&#8230;.</p>
<p>You all know how much I love a bargain, especially in this current climate. It&#8217;s extremely rare that I&#8217;ll just purchase something without searching for a discount code first. Free Delivery is also a BIG pull for me, I really begrudge paying shipping costs. Stay savvy and be sure to check out Voucher Codes ASOS offers page <a href="http://www.vouchercodes.co.uk/asos.com" target="_blank">here</a> first should you decide to splurge! xo</p>
<p>P.S How dodgy does my hand placement look in my outfit picture? I SWEAR it was just behind my back LOL</p>

Mixed Metals Ring &#8211; An Ex-Lover<br />
Necklace &#8211; Topshop Sale £3<br />
Bag &#8211; Miu Miu</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I have my hair up today, well when I say <em>up</em> I mean half up and then the stragglies are pinned with kirby grips. My hair could really do with a wash but I&#8217;m having some ear woes and currently treating it with this liquid stuff that you have to dropper in and then it kinda leaks back out again&#8230;. is this an over-share?</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Anyways I didn&#8217;t want to waste a hair wash <em>(I&#8217;m all eco-friendly me)</em> so that&#8217;s why it&#8217;s <del>greasy</del> like this today. It&#8217;s odd tho, I&#8217;m reminded of how much I like my hair off my face <em>(part of the reason I favour pixie crops so much)</em>. I might persevere and grow my hair out to like ponytail length or something. Maybe&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Make-up wise I&#8217;m wearing Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum. I REALLY can&#8217;t recommend this enough. My skin is dry as hell atm and this is the only foundation looking half decent on me. I&#8217;m not a fan of the original Healthy Mix tho, it was a blending nightmare for me, but the serum is super. Blush is NARS Crazed ♥ and I have MAC Sumptious Olive and Club on my eyes. Lips are a new purchase, Boots No 17 Supreme Shine in Barely Blush. It negates the use of a gloss which is nice and I thought the pink was pretty without being too Barbie.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The star of today&#8217;s outfit is my cardy tho. Off the back of my recent H&amp;M Gilet I am now powerless to resist all things faux fur. This was in Toppers recent markdowns. Originally £50 <em>(no way would I have paid that)</em> to a more reasonable £25 <em>(but still quite pricey I thought)</em>. It&#8217;s not ground-breaking in terms of design, from the back it just looks like a plain Fisherman jumper but it&#8217;s very warm and practical.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">xo</p>

<p>Just a quick outfit post. I first spotted this Playsuit on <a href="http://www.itv.com/channels/itv2/itv2shows/theonlywayisessex/" target="_blank">TOWIE</a> and was immediately drawn to the adorable pattern <em>and</em> the fact it had long sleeves <em>(season appropriate&#8230;ish)</em>. It retails at £54 which personally I think is waaaaay over-priced but happily I found it on sale at <a href="http://www.mylabel.co.uk/10502117.html" target="_blank">MyLabel</a>. For size reference I am wearing a Medium <em>(UK 10-12)</em>. I think it&#8217;s a fun little outfit and I was relatively warm even without a cardigan, although when I went out later in the day I added my leather jacket and a chunky scarf.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-4217 aligncenter" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/e1eb2a8c0e0311e1a87612313804ec91_7-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></p>
<p>On the down side it creases like a mutha so it&#8217;s definitely not for smart wear. Oh and <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/dressjunkie/status/135760499483746305" target="_blank">THIS</a> happened *blushes*</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/doe8.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" title="" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/doe8.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="479" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/doe9.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" title="" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/doe9.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="659" /></a></p>
<p>My boots are my latest loves from ASOS. I&#8217;d been stalking them for a while and was delighted to find them in the sale selection last Sunday. Again for size reference these are a<strong> narrow fit</strong>. If you don&#8217;t have narrow kebs like me I think you would most likely find them uncomfortable. However they suit me down to the ground and my feet feel really well supported, comfy and warm in them ♥</p>
<p>xo</p>
<p>P.S Did you spot the difference&#8230;..?</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">Safe to say that I&#8217;m not looking my freshest at the minute. Could be something to do with the fact I am constantly in pain after my recent car accident. I don&#8217;t mean ouch sharp pain either. I mean constant ache, hurts to hold the weight of my own head pain. And sleeping? Well that&#8217;s been intermittent. When I can get comfy it&#8217;s fabulous but I&#8217;m afraid those times are few and far between *grumble*</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;ve also had one of those gurny weeks. For anyone that isn&#8217;t familiar with a good gurn it&#8217;s basically where you cry your eyes out. <strong>A lot</strong>. My poor little Mini was wrote off by the insurance company as the suspension damage was too great to warrant repair. I <strong>loved</strong> my car. I&#8217;m aware many can&#8217;t relate to that <em>(most people I know for instance)</em>. But I did, I loved that car like a pet and saying goodbye to it was really hard. I know&#8230; I know, there are people with REAL problems but I feel how I feel and that&#8217;s allowed.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">It&#8217;s all the more sore as I had 3 days to find a new car before the courtesy car had to be returned. I didn&#8217;t feel ready really but needs must and a new car I now have. I&#8217;m sure in time I&#8217;ll grow to appreciate it just as much.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Definitely</strong> time for a little positive, right?</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I totally heart this H&amp;M Gilet. £29.99 normally but I had a code <em>(sorry now expired)</em> and picked it up for £14.99. It is thee cosiest happy-making piece of clothing ever. It even has pockets and we all know how much I love a good pocket! I love the colour too, tones of black, brown and navy. Refreshingly different to faux furs that do the rounds every Winter. You need this one in your life! xo</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>I was delighted when I learned that the recent <strong>#ASOSsavvysunday</strong> was going to be 50% off Winter Coats. I am big into my outerwear. Living in these chilly climes you can be sure that a good coat will <strong>never</strong> go to waste.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/aztecfront.jpg"><img class=" size-full wp-image-4112" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/aztecfront.jpg" alt="" width="340" height="517" /></a> <a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/aztecback.jpg"><img class=" size-full wp-image-4111" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/aztecback.jpg" alt="" width="340" height="517" /></a></p>
<p>My first choice was this Aztec number. Normal RRP £100. <span style="color: #ff0000;">Sale Price £50</span><br />
I cannot describe how disappointed I am with this coat. It ticks so many boxes for me in terms of colour, pattern and material but sadly it&#8217;s let down by sizing and fit. The sleeves are meant to be full length but they hit that really annoying wrist point on me, which I&#8217;m guessing would only be exasperated with knitwear worn underneath. I&#8217;m positive that I would constantly be trying to tug them down. The other issue is that this is the size SMALL. Now I realise that there is a certain amount of balloon design to the coat but it really is just utterly shapeless from the front. All the more annoying as I love how it looks from the back.</p>
<p>So my dilemma is this. Do I see if I can let the sleeves down slightly and re-sew or is it really doing nothing for me? Honest opinions please. <span style="color: #ff0000;">EDIT: My lovely fashionistas have spoken and it is unanimous that the jacket should be returned <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/shaggy1.jpg"><img class=" size-full wp-image-4114" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/shaggy1.jpg" alt="" width="340" height="448" /></a> <a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/shaggy2_edited-1.jpg"><img class=" size-full wp-image-4115" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/shaggy2_edited-1.jpg" alt="" width="340" height="448" /></a></p>
<p>Next up is this shaggy faux fur. Normal RRP £80. <span style="color: #ff0000;">Sale Price £40</span><br />
I saw myself channeling my inner Rachel Zoe in this one. It&#8217;s a nice fit and length on me, the arm length is acceptable but again far from generous <em>(and my arms are not above average in length I assure you)</em>. What&#8217;s with the stingy arms ASOS?! The material itself is soft but I dislike the colour tone <em>(almost like dirty snow in good lighting)</em> and it looks very plastic/ shiny IRL. *le sigh* This will definitely be returned.</p>
<p>On the plus side I&#8217;ve just saved myself the guts of <strong>£100</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/bettlejuice.jpg"><img class=" size-full wp-image-4113" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/bettlejuice.jpg" alt="" width="420" height="455" /></a></p>
<p>The only success from my order was the 2 Models Own Nail Polishes from their new Beetlejuice Collection. I opted for Pinky Brown <em>(with this being my stand out fave so far)</em> and Purple Blue <em>(jury&#8217;s out)</em></p>
<p>xo</p>

<p>Did your heart skip a beat?</p>
<p>Mine certainly did when I set eyes on these frankly <strong>DELICIOUS</strong> New Look sparklies.</p>
<p>Then it promptly <strong>plummeted</strong> to my feet as I realised <em>(with a large degree of overly dramatic)</em> horror that they only had a size 6 left and it was too small. <strong>%&amp;$£!!</strong></p>
<p>I looked for them online with <strong>ZERO</strong> success.</p>
<p><em>Then</em> I went to a different branch and&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p>they had 5 pairs of size 7&#8230; *whistles tunelessly*</p>
<p>To me they just SCREAM Christmas Party, which is where I intend to debut them. I&#8217;m gonna go the whole hog and pair them with a festive red frock, HELL, I might even wear some novelty earrings and a Santa Hat <em>(I definitely won&#8217;t do either of these things)</em>. I&#8217;m all the more delighted because they were just £24.99! An amazing price considering places like <a href="http://www.dune.co.uk/honk-d-glittery-platform-court-prodhonkd91gold/" target="_blank">DUNE</a> are selling similar styles for £90 *faints*</p>
<p>Get them in store while you can, oh and I believe they also come in black and purple if that&#8217;s your thing!</p>
<p>xo</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">These shoes are ugly. There is no denying it. When I bought them I thought they were ugly but edgy, when I received I thought they were even uglier and wearing them today I realise they are <em>so</em> damn ugly they deserve to be loved. I&#8217;m just not sure I&#8217;m up to it&#8230;. eBay?</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">No smiling in my pics today, basically because in every shot my face matched my feet. Ugly</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">My jacket is however very very pretty *YAY*. I already own this particular blazer in black but I love the fit so much I&#8217;ve invested in another. The red is a really sumptious warm shade. Wearing it makes me feel all Christmassy!&#8230;..in October&#8230;..</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Also <strong>loving</strong> my jeans. Jean shopping was always the most stressy kind of shopping for me. <strong>Nothing</strong> ever fit nice <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Nowadays it&#8217;s a joy. I&#8217;m wearing more fitted styles that I wouldn&#8217;t have even dreamt of trying on before. I highly recommend this Jamie style from Toppers if like me you have slim pins but a bit of a J-Lo rump. They are quite high-waisted and a little more stretchy round the butt. WIN <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Have a nice weekend folks xo</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;m in hiding. It&#8217;s <em>that</em> time of the month. So you&#8217;ll find me under my Lululemon hoodie, clutching a hot water bottle and mumbling something about how everything sucks&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;apart from my new <span style="color: #f371d4;"><strong>PINK</strong></span> faced Michael Kors watch. Picked it for an absolute steal <em>(£99)</em> in The Watch Store, Belfast. Just looking at it makes me feel brighter xo</p>

<p>I wrapped up warm in my new<em>ish</em> leather jacket. It&#8217;s that soft subtle leather that keeps you super toasty. Bought to replace my All Saints Owain Jacket which I sold a month ago. Although pretty I found it absolutely rubbish at providing heat. Something to do with the type of leather? Who knows, either way it just didn&#8217;t cut it for me and so to eBay it went.</p>
<p>Matthew and I spent the morning together in Belfast city and he bought me this very special gift</p>

<p>This is my little toe-dip into the sheer trend. I picked the blouse up in Tesco of all places and although I&#8217;ve searched for it online I&#8217;m unable to find a link, so please accept my apologies <em>(as it&#8217;s a pet hate of mine when bloggers don&#8217;t link to where they&#8217;ve purchased things)</em>.</p>
<p>This pic also shows off my highlights quite well <em>(&#8230;probably helps that my hair is also clean and not drenched by days of rain for a change),</em> I&#8217;ve had them for about 3 weeks? now and I&#8217;m still digging the lighter side. Perhaps I&#8217;ll get more&#8230;&#8230;</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">Will it EVER stop raining? Ugh.<br />
I&#8217;m struggling. The weather has turned and the dark mornings and nights are creeping in. My gut instinct is to hibernate. Wake me up when global warming comes <em>(j/k &#8230;don&#8217;t get your reusable bag in a twist)<br />
</em>The heavy rained soaked skies mean bad lighting in the house, I&#8217;ve been in brighter caves. My only option outside is this length of sheltered porch which just happens to face our neighbours. I&#8217;m sure they think I&#8217;m a loon but no I&#8217;m just one of those <em>kerazy</em> bloggers from the internets&#8230;.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Bad weather also equals bad hair. Flat as a pancake&#8230;. Have I moaned enough yet? I think so, time for some positivity!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Dolly has arrived!</strong> If we&#8217;re Twitter buds <a href="http://twitter.com/dressjunkie" target="_blank">(@dressjunkie)</a> you&#8217;ll probably already know this.  She actually arrived just over a week ago. Was a bit of a surprise but a very welcome one <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Teddy <em>was</em> wary at the start <em>(see the video below, apologies in advance for my &#8220;babytalk&#8221;. It&#8217;s an illness where dogs and I are concerned)</em> but the past few days he&#8217;s been sleeping beside her and generally loving her play and company. It&#8217;s very heartwarming to watch the friendship develop <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

	<p class="wp-caption-text">WTF is that?!</p>
</div>
<p><strong>I&#8217;m wearing slippers</strong> <strong>all the time</strong> and Vogue said it&#8217;s ok! Yup this was one trend I couldn&#8217;t WAIT to get on board with. If you&#8217;ve been thinking about buying a pair of these oh so trendy Topshop Vectra ones I can highly recommend. First pair of flats in an absolute age that haven&#8217;t given me blisters and were 100% comfy from the off. I&#8217;m a UK size 6.5-7 and went for the 7. Perfect fit, in fact &#8220;snug&#8221; so I would definitely size up if you&#8217;re a halfer <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>I&#8217;m unemployed again!</strong> Now on the face of it this probably seems like it should be a negative but trust me it&#8217;s not, I was covering a permanent employee&#8217;s maternity. I had my going away lunch yesterday <em>(why does free food taste so damn good?)</em> and it&#8217;s been a long time since I actually felt sad leaving a job. However I <em>really</em> did. I&#8217;ve made some excellent friends and I&#8217;m pretty sure they&#8217;ll remain friends for a long time to come. I also left on great terms with the boss. So much so that he offered me part time hours to stay on. Sadly they were all afternoons tho and it wouldn&#8217;t pay me to do them due to after-school childcare costs. C&#8217;est la vie! I won&#8217;t be looking for anything else this side of Christmas, I&#8217;ve a bit put away in the bank and I intend to do some of that hibernation I was talking about earlier, along with sewing projects, house decoration and AQE cheerleading. Oh and long rambling blog posts like this&#8230; It&#8217;s very exciting really!!</p>
<p><strong>My brother is a lot better.</strong> He&#8217;s fighting an addiction and so I&#8217;m not naive, this <em>might</em> just be a passing ray of sunshine. But I believe in him, I love him and I have hope</p>
<p>Hope you&#8217;re all having a lovely weekend xo</p>

<p>It&#8217;s been a bit of an emotionally draining week. My brother isn&#8217;t very well and there is a lot of weight of everyone&#8217;s <em>(not least his)</em> shoulders at the moment.</p>
<p>So I took a bit of time out yesterday morning and went to the hairdressers. Thinking about going lighter, how much lighter I&#8217;m not quite sure yet&#8230; but lighter and brighter.</p>
<p>I got some foils pulled through and an ickle trim. It&#8217;s a subtle change but I enjoyed being pampered for a few hours.</p>
<p>Best of all it only cost £34. I took a bit of a gamble and let one of Hair Traffic&#8217;s students at it, but I needn&#8217;t have worried. She was great and I&#8217;m pretty sure paying eighty odd quid elsewhere wouldn&#8217;t have got it done any better.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/f21cardy.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3778" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/f21cardy.jpg" alt="" width="448" height="606" /></a></p>
<p>My comfy aztec style cardy is another Forever 21 purchase. It worked out at about £32 in our money, bit more than I&#8217;d have liked to pay but it is seriously cosy and thick, almost jacket like. In my mind that justifies the price<em> (&#8230;..and why I also got it in the black and cream)</em> and means it will get plenty of wear.</p>

<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3819.jpg"><img class=" size-full wp-image-3747" title="" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3819.jpg" alt="" width="363" height="640" /></a>  <a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3881.jpg"><img title="" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3881.jpg" alt="" width="255" height="640" /></a></p>
<p>After much deliberation and justification I finally purchased the black Miu Miu Vitello Lux Bow Bag for myself, and I have ZERO regrets. It really is even more stunning than I had imagined.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3838.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3750" title="" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3838-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>However this isn&#8217;t <em>quite</em> as indulgent as it probably seems.</p>
<p>This particular Vitello is secondhand <em>(2+ years of serious pre-lovin&#8217;)</em> and came to me via eBay. I wouldn&#8217;t really recommend shopping for designer goods on there unless you <em>really</em> know your stuff as sadly there are a lot of unscrupulous sellers trying to pass off fake goods. However, I think of myself as a seasoned shopper on there and The Purse Forum are a great resource for helping to spot the authentic deals.</p>
<p>Thankfully this was one of them and I made a substantial saving <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3848.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3751" title="" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3848.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="528" /></a></p>
<p>I have to say that the previous owner has obviously adored the bag too. The leather has that amazing squishy &#8220;worn in&#8221; feel and look<em> (which personally I heart)</em> but there is no damage and the lining is immaculate. The seller will definitely be getting 5 star feedback from me!</p>
<p>Incidentally today must have been THEE day for Vitello deliveries as the lovely Laura received a pink one. Check it out <a href="http://www.buynowbloglater.com/2011/09/unfinished-business-miu-miu-vitello-lux.html" target="_blank">here!</a> It&#8217;s a beaut!</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3803.jpg"><img class=" size-full wp-image-3746" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3803.jpg" alt="" width="301" height="384" /></a>  <a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3875.jpg"><img class=" size-full wp-image-3753" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3875.jpg" alt="" width="282" height="384" /></a></p>
<p>The rest of today&#8217;s outfit is high-street. My rather see-through <em>(oooer missis)</em> jumper is from Forever 21. I spent a good ten minutes this morning fretting over what colour bra I could &#8220;acceptably&#8221; wear with this. I finally settled on black and I <em>think</em> it works&#8230;. I may be wrong though <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Anyways, I picked it up when I was in the Dublin branch last week. Initial impression in regards to quality is unexpectedly good although I haven&#8217;t washed it yet so watch this space!</p>
<p>Jeans are from Zara. LOVE their denim and the fact that they recognise women aren&#8217;t just straight up and down. YES we have bums and YES we have hips and most of their styles allow for that.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3878.jpg"><img class=" size-full wp-image-3754" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3878.jpg" alt="" width="256" height="384" /></a>  <a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3834.jpg"><img class=" size-full wp-image-3749" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/IMG_3834.jpg" alt="" width="236" height="307" /></a></p>
<p>My blazer is from New Look <em>(recently)</em> and I adore the tailored fit. You can leave it open for a casual look or fasten the button to accentuate the waist. Great staple piece imo.<br />
Shoes are oldies from Faith but I&#8217;m actually cursing them as they gave me an awful heel blister this afternoon. Booooo hissssss!</p>
<p>Anyways, must dash as I&#8217;m heading to a family party. Have a good night whatever you get up to xo</p>
