<p style="text-align: center;">Shoes &#8211; Charity Shop £3</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I made an online order with Peacocks just last week as I really like a lot of their Spring/ Summer collection, so I&#8217;m saddened <em>(but not shocked)</em> to hear that they seem to be facing near <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-16587322" target="_blank">inevitable administration</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">For now though it&#8217;s business as usual and so I urge you to get down to your local branch and buy <a href="http://www.peacocks.co.uk/product/index.jsp?productId=6059391&amp;prodFindSrc=search" target="_blank">this</a> playsuit. It&#8217;s just soooo comfortable, flattering and easy to dress up or down. I can&#8217;t wait to wear it bare legged in Summer <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Of course as it&#8217;s not really the weather for it <em>right</em> now I paired it with opaques and threw a mustard <em>(currently addicted to this colour)</em> wooly over the top when I got chilly. I think it handles it well and ends up looking like cute culottes &hearts;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">My shoes which are <del>in the mud</del> out of shot are another comfortable addition to my wardrobe. Not everyone&#8217;s taste I&#8217;m sure but I just loved the grain and rich tan leather. Plus someone has done all the hard work of breaking them in. A bargain at £3</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">xo</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">I actually drafted this outfit post late last night and planned to write up some text/ waffle today. But I&#8217;ve just had to have my Dad&#8217;s cat put to sleep <em>(he&#8217;s currently in Arizona but aware)</em> and I totally under-estimated how upset I would be about an animal that wasn&#8217;t my own. So please forgive me for the lack of craic in this post.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;ll be back on form in the next one. Pinky swear 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;">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>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Look what Mr Postman brought me! *squeeeeeeeeeeal*</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>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Saturday in Belfast was monumentally shit weather wise. It literally rained ALL day.</p>
<p>So I fought back with bright lips and mega glam falsies. Foolproof <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/P1010076.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3505" title="P1010076" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/P1010076.jpg" alt="P1010076" width="199" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>I love these huge Ardell false eyelashes, they make the best reusable imo.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/P1010122.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3507" title="P1010122" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/P1010122.jpg" alt="P1010122" width="300" height="258" /></a></p>
<p>The eyes were simple and all shadows were from the Urban Decay Naked Palette <em>(a true MUST BUY)</em>. Half Baked on the inner part of the lid, Smog on the outer and a smidgen of Dark House in the crease. No crazy blending. Old Skool eyeshadow <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Eyeliner is MAC&#8217;s Fluidline in Blacktrack. I honestly hadn&#8217;t used this in 6 months easy, and you know what I kinda love it again. So cool when that happens!</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/P1010081.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3506" title="P1010081" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/P1010081.jpg" alt="P1010081" width="148" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>My base was Dior Forever <em>(full coverage)</em> set with MAC Prep &amp; Prime Transparent Powder. No blush, just a touch of Topshop Bronzer under the back of the cheekbones. Fresh but glamorous with a real pin up influence.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/P1010036.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3502" title="P1010036" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/P1010036.jpg" alt="P1010036" width="112" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>OOTD consisted of G12 @Asda Leggings, a Primark smock top <em>(practical long sleeves)</em> and my black Tall Uggs <em>(I offer no apologies for my footwear choice). </em></p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/P1010039.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3503" title="P1010039" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/P1010039.jpg" alt="P1010039" width="207" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Jewellery was my gold fill sideways cross which I&#8217;d resigned myself to having lost, but it had actually fallen into the Misters knicker drawer! I paired it with the latest addition to my collection, a cute pearl &amp; silver chain from Accessorize which can be doubled up. £8. Bargain.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/P1010040.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3504" title="P1010040" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/P1010040.jpg" alt="P1010040" width="149" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Finally I added a pop of colour with a <a href="http://www.riverisland.com/Online/women/accessories/scarves--gloves/black-print-chiffon-scarf-592092" target="_blank">River Island scarf</a> £14.99.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>It&#8217;s a grey overcast day in Belfast, not cold&#8230; not hot&#8230; just a kinda meh temperature. The hardest kind to dress appropriately for.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/P1000211.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3241" title="P1000211" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/P1000211.jpg" alt="P1000211" width="339" height="640" /></a></p>
<p>I settled on a bandeau playsuit with a cardy over the top which meant that when I got too warm I could just whip it off and pop it in my bag. I had to do exactly that for the duration of my shopping in town. Cardigan <em>FAIL</em>.</p>
<p>Playsuit &#8211; Zara</p>
<p>Cardigan &#8211; Tesco</p>
<p>Flats &#8211; Primark</p>
<p>Bag &#8211; Mulberry</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/P1000215.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3243" title="P1000215" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/P1000215-300x226.jpg" alt="P1000215" width="300" height="226" /></a></p>
<p>Vivienne Westwood Necklace and DIY Disc</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/P1000214.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3242" title="P1000214" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/P1000214-300x207.jpg" alt="P1000214" width="300" height="207" /></a></p>
<p>Links Of London Charm Bracelet and mixed silver bangles from Miss Selfridge</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/P1000222.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3245" title="P1000222" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/P1000222-300x56.jpg" alt="P1000222" width="300" height="56" /></a></p>
<p>Eye make-up was a simple lilac wash of shadow using NARS Night Rider, blended out with a smidgen of MAC Stars n Rockets. Lilac Liner from Gosh and L&#8217;Oreal Voluminous Mascara. Lilac tones bring out the green in my eyes like no other colour &lt;3</p>
<p>Shopping was very uneventful. 3 hours later I was home with 1 bottle of brush cleanser. That&#8217;s the way it goes sometimes. At least my purse is smiling.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Technically Tuesday&#8217;s outfit but this lazy ass has only got round to uploading the pics <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0059.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3185" title="DSCN0059" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0059.jpg" alt="DSCN0059" width="120" height="320" /></a><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0061.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3186" title="DSCN0061" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0061-225x300.jpg" alt="DSCN0061" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Dress &#8211; Warehouse Sale £30</p>
<p>Totally loving this frock. Colourful, beautiful shape and such a comfortable silky feel fabric. Easy to dress up or down. I wore it last week with a waist cincher belt and it looked amazing!</p>
<p>Tights &#8211; Primark Sale £1</p>
<p>Shoes &#8211; Oasis Sale £40</p>
<p>Necklace &#8211; New Look Sale £2</p>
<p>Do you see a pattern? LOL I <em>almost</em> never pay full price for any clothing that I buy. For a number of reasons I guess, but mostly because I cannot stand seeing something I&#8217;ve spent a fortune on inevitably reduced a few months later. Absolute killer.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0079.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3188" title="DSCN0079" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0079-300x123.jpg" alt="DSCN0079" width="300" height="123" /></a></p>
<p>Make-up wise I&#8217;m still loving my Bobbi Brown Beach Shimmer Brick, and I&#8217;m also digging pink eyeshadow. Really brings out my eyes. Lid combo is MAC Expensive Pink, Girlie and Cranberry. The crease is blended out with a touch of MAC Twinks. Warm and pretty imo.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve also got a great 30+ skincare routine down, more of that shortly.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Now THIS is my kinda highlighter! *pushes Stereo Rose MSF to the back of the drawer*</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0042.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3170" title="DSCN0042" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0042-225x300.jpg" alt="DSCN0042" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>I give you the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick in Beach.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0048.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3171" title="DSCN0048" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0048-300x225.jpg" alt="DSCN0048" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>Apologies for the shitty macro quality. I&#8217;m currently using my Dad&#8217;s Coolpix while I wait on my new camera being delivered. To say it can&#8217;t cope with getting up close and personal is an understatement.</p>
<p>I picked Beach up in my local House of Fraser. On first sight I thought it appeared too reddy and dark in tone and I was convinced it would just look like shimmery mud on my pale skin. Thankfully I took the advice of the MA for once and had it applied. I was pleasantly surprised, very surprised.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/p_320_240_9962E603-7260-4237-B7D1-F4DCE6611407.jpeg"><img src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/p_320_240_9962E603-7260-4237-B7D1-F4DCE6611407.jpeg" alt="" class="alignnone size-full" /></a></p>
<p>Even with a generous swirl of all the colours it simply creates a beautiful peachy glow.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0024.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3166" title="DSCN0024" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0024-228x300.jpg" alt="DSCN0024" width="228" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>It not only highlights in that lovely powder to cream finish but it also deposits &#8220;subtle&#8221; colour. Exactly what I want from this kind of product.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0032.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3167" title="DSCN0032" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0032-212x300.jpg" alt="DSCN0032" width="212" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>I definitely don&#8217;t want a tonne of orange/pink product sitting bizarrely where it shouldn&#8217;t. Beach is wearable gorgeousness!</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0036.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3168" title="DSCN0036" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0036-113x300.jpg" alt="DSCN0036" width="113" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>OOTD is another comfy number. It&#8217;s a bank holiday in Northern Ireland today and that can be either fun or a bit of a nightmare due to the nature of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Twelfth" target="_blank">holiday</a>&#8230;.</p>
<p>I think we&#8217;ll just hang around the house today and catch up on all those little DIY jobs we&#8217;ve been meaning to do.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m wearing Asda Ski Pants, a grey tunic from Tesco sale that creases like a mutha!! and white<em> Havaianas<br />
</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Granny had the kids for us last night and so <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">I</span> we had planned to go out to eat and then see Eclipse at the cinema.</p>
<p>What we <em>actually</em> did was have a sumptuous dinner at <a href="http://www.aldensrestaurant.com/" target="_blank">Aldens</a> in Belfast, drink lots of yummy wine (well I did) and totally forgot about the cinema part because we were having way too much fun just chatting and laughing. We finished the night up at <a href="http://www.thelonelypoet.com/" target="_blank">The Lonely Poet</a>, our local pub. It was bliss. Even more so because I&#8217;m not dying of a hangover today. Win!!!</p>
<p>Outfit of the Night was a smart casual little ensemble.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0036.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3157" title="IMG_0036" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0036-131x300.jpg" alt="IMG_0036" width="131" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Skinny jeans from AWear (currently £10 in the summer sale)</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0015.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3150" title="IMG_0015" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0015-225x300.jpg" alt="IMG_0015" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Sequin body from the Dunnes sale quite a while back. I think it was a fiver.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0016.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3151" title="IMG_0016" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0016-300x281.jpg" alt="IMG_0016" width="300" height="281" /></a></p>
<p>Coral Cardigan from Dunnes £8. I just adore the crystal button detailing. Bargain!</p>
<p>Jewellery wise I went for my Links of London Charm Bracelet. The dolphin is a new addition and very dear to my heart. Matt and I watched the sun go down one of the nights on our cruise and we saw a school of dolphins up close. I never thought it would be as amazing as it was. They literally took my breath away and I felt completely in awe of the world right at that second in time.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0017.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3152" title="IMG_0017" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0017-268x300.jpg" alt="IMG_0017" width="268" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>My watch is an oldie but a goodie! The Michael Kors crystal square face. I actually bought two more of his watches at Duty Free (I know.. I know&#8230; v extravagant for me) while we were away. They&#8217;re definitely my favourite brand, classic as well as classy!</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0031.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3156" title="IMG_0031" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0031-180x300.jpg" alt="IMG_0031" width="180" height="300" /></a><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0030.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3155" title="IMG_0030" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0030-300x285.jpg" alt="IMG_0030" width="300" height="285" /></a></p>
<p>The shoes are a new purchase from the Oasis Sale £40. Still a little more than I would have liked to have paid but these are the comfiest heels I have ever had. I guess it&#8217;s the wedge heel that works so well for me. I&#8217;m so in love that I plan to purchase them in the dark grey also. They&#8217;re reduced to £25! Don&#8217;t you hate when clothing shops reduce like that, by popularity of colour? Grrr bugs me. Swindlers!! <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<div id="attachment_3153" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 225px">
	<a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0023.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-3153" title="IMG_0023" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0023-225x300.jpg" alt="IMG_0023" width="225" height="300" /></a>
	<p class="wp-caption-text">Stunning tan lines....</p>
</div>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0025.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3154" title="IMG_0025" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_0025-225x300.jpg" alt="IMG_0025" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Make-up was my fool-proof eye combo of MAC Woodwinked, Mulch &amp; Soft Brown. MUFE Smoky Lash Mascara (review to follow), Dior Nude Foundation and the over-hyped product of the moment MAC Stereo Rose MSF. My counter had an abundance of this so I&#8217;m guessing the sell out thing is just a mainland issue. It&#8217;s nice for sure, worth selling your first born for? Definitely not. I&#8217;m still &#8220;working&#8221; with it.</p>
<p>Finally a little Teddy update.</p>
<div id="attachment_3148" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 300px">
	<a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0382.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-3148" title="DSCN0382" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0382-300x225.jpg" alt="Ewwww!" width="300" height="225" /></a>
	<p class="wp-caption-text">Ewwww!</p>
</div>
<p>His wound is continuing to heal. There is a mild infection which he is on antibiotics for but his stitches were removed yesterday, and he is in great form considering. Total legend!</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0393.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3149" title="DSCN0393" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/DSCN0393-237x300.jpg" alt="DSCN0393" width="237" height="300" /></a></p>

<p>I think the night ended about 2am&#8230; although I can&#8217;t be sure&#8230; because I have absolutely no recollection of getting into bed.</p>
<p>Belter Night <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>Come Saturday morning I was feeling a little peaky (to say the least), but I&#8217;m not one for lying in bed and so I got myself dressed  and took a trip into Belfast with my fave boys. The sunglasses weren&#8217;t just a fashion accessory, they were actually medicinal!</p>

Watch &#8211; As Before</p>
<p>While the boys did boy things = spending a small fortune in Games Workshop, I made myself feel instantly better by falling into MAC and accidentally on purpose buying some cosmetics I didn&#8217;t need. Oops&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/DSCF6719.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-3057" title="DSCF6719" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/DSCF6719-150x150.jpg" alt="DSCF6719" width="150" height="150" /></a><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/DSCF6726.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-3060" title="DSCF6726" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/DSCF6726-150x150.jpg" alt="DSCF6726" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>I picked up &#8220;Dirty&#8221; Greasepaint Stick, &#8220;Honesty&#8221; Eyeshadow and the Prep &amp; Prime Finishing Powder.</p>
<p>Ok, so I might not have actually NEEDED them but I&#8217;ve used them all already and I can honestly say they will be staples in my make-up bag PLUS I hadn&#8217;t bought anything <em>cosmeticky?</em> in AGES&#8230; <em>(justify&#8230; justify..)</em></p>
<div id="attachment_3058" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 300px">

	<p class="wp-caption-text">Honesty e/s swatched over Dirty</p>
</div>
<p>Such a pretty, wearable combo don&#8217;t you think? and the Greasepaint sticks are AMAZING, literally don&#8217;t budge&#8230; well at least this one doesn&#8217;t. I did note in store though that all the shades seemed to have different consistencies, some much creamier than others. Part of the reason I picked this one over the others was it&#8217;s more solid form.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d love to say these few purchases have satisfied my MAC urges for a while, but I&#8217;m afraid the opposite might be true. I&#8217;m seriously impressed, no regret buys!</p>
<p>&#8230;..which makes me think WHAT ELSE am I missing out on? Do tell girls, do tell! <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Well I had a fantastic weekend!</p>
<p>So much fun was had by my bestie and I on Saturday. I haven&#8217;t laughed so much in a long time and we got up to the most ridiculous things <em>(don&#8217;t drink and tweet kids)</em>.</p>
<p>Highlights included S singing down the telephone to my husband and me eating chips and dip off her wooden floor <em>(we is classy birds)</em>.</p>
<p>Good times but THANK GOD we only meet up every few months!!</p>
<p>This was my outfit, I wanted to keep it pretty casual as we were having lunch and then heading to a nearby pub for drinks.</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/IMG_2799.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2961" title="IMG_2799" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/IMG_2799.jpg" alt="IMG_2799" width="292" height="640" /></a></p>
<ul>
<li>Lace Crop Top &#8211; Dunnes £3/ £5 (can&#8217;t recall) sale</li>
<li>Pastel Pink Hanky Hem Button Vest &#8211; New Look £8</li>
<li>Denim Shorts &#8211; New Look £10 sale</li>
<li>Black ribbon threaded pumps &#8211; Faith (past season)</li>
</ul>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/IMG_2801.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2962" title="IMG_2801" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/IMG_2801-225x300.jpg" alt="IMG_2801" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>I was determined to incorporate a little of the underwear as outwear trend, so I paired an over-sized vest with a lace crop top and undid the first few buttons to expose some bra/ boobage. I have to admit I wasn&#8217;t sure about it but I think the dense lace pattern keep it from being too tarty&#8230;&#8230; maybe&#8230;.. not</p>
<p><a href="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/IMG_2804.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2963" title="IMG_2804" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/IMG_2804-225x300.jpg" alt="IMG_2804" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Make-up was a real rush job, basically LM Tinted Moisturiser, Nars Outlaw Blush and Urban Decay &#8220;Mushroom&#8221; e/s from the Alice Palette &lt;3</p>
<p>Lips were a combination of two Rituals products that I&#8217;m totally in love with and will do a more in depth review of shortly.</p>
<p>What did you get up this weekend? Any high jinx? xox</p>

<p>Such a find, these boots are really inexpensive, especially with Peacocks generous 20% discount! They fill the gap that I had in the 3/4 length boot department, and are reasonably comfortable too.</p>

<p>I am beyond delighted to say that the last time I wore this dress was just over  3 years ago. It&#8217;s a UK size 12 and I couldn&#8217;t even get it pulled down over my thighs this time 2 months ago. Believe me, I tried!!</p>
<p>I haven&#8217;t been worrying about my weight or dieting. I&#8217;m just eating well and running, and it&#8217;s paying dividends in regards to my shape, tone and general health. I feel great <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><strong><span style="color: #000000;">Over the Knee Boots</span></strong></p>
<p>Tarty?</p>
<p>Trendy?</p>
<p>Practical?</p>
<p>Discuss <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I really didn&#8217;t think I would be partaking in this particular item of footwear, especially as when I recently tried a heeled pair on in New Look, my eight year son said &#8220;but you&#8217;re not a rough Mummy, those boots are for rough Mummy&#8217;s&#8221;.</p>
<p>As I stood back and surveyed my reflection in the mirror I had to agree with him. I looked like I should be stood on a street corner or at least serving in a sex shop. Not good.</p>
<p>I couldn&#8217;t help but feel disappointed, I&#8217;m one of those people that actually likes to follow fashion, thinking for myself and being &#8220;individual&#8221; in the clothes area has just never appealed. Don&#8217;t get me wrong I love to see other people expressing themselves via their togs but it&#8217;s safer and easier for me to just have Look Magazine do it all for me.</p>
<p>So I was pleasantly surprised when I re-visited New Look this week and they had taken delivery of <strong>flat </strong>Over the Knee Boots, looking more demure altogether.</p>
<p>They were £35, they&#8217;re not real leather, but they are lined so you don&#8217;t get the sweaty thing going on. The toe is an almond shape which I think is quite flattering on bigger kebs like mine, and they have long leatheresque Gucci style tassles on the sides. I thought these might trip me up when walking as they are floor length but no issues at all, they swish back and forth and make me feel all catwalk.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t think they look cheap, but feel free to disagree. I think this is due to the lack of sexy heel and also the fact that they come just over the knee in a slouchy style, but they&#8217;re not &#8220;thigh high&#8221; which gives a different impression altogether imo. Think Pretty Woman&#8230;. to that mind it probably helps that they&#8217;re not wipe clean PVC or have concealed pockets for doms&#8230;&#8230;</p>

<p>My bestie Sarah and I had a long awaited lunch date this afternoon. She gave birth just 3 months ago, and although she never thought she would want to she has been breastfeeding like a champion!  Although fabulous this means she has &#8220;literally&#8221; been attached to Rosa since her birth.</p>
<p>Thank the lord (or science) for breast pumps!!!<br />
We managed to enjoy a 3 hour window of time together this afternoon, in which we had lunch at Indie on the Stranmillis Road, Belfast, had a few tipples in The House and generally put the world to rights <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
If you live in Belfast and haven&#8217;t already dined out at Indie I can highly recommend it. For £5.95 we had choice of a starter and main meal each. I&#8217;m always wary of such deals as somewhat inevitably quality can suffer.<br />
I&#8217;m pleased to say that I&#8217;d happily have paid full price for my meal which was a starter of Onion Bhaji followed by Chicken Tikka Masala, Pilau Rice and Garlic Naan. Delicious!!<br />
Sarah had the Spinach Fritters and Chicken Korma and was equally as impressed. Our whole meal including a few drinks came to £22. Quality!!</p>
<p>Outfit of the Day consisted of:</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2640" title="IMG_1764" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/IMG_1764-119x300.jpg" alt="IMG_1764" width="119" height="300" /><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2641" title="IMG_1769" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/IMG_1769-126x300.jpg" alt="IMG_1769" width="126" height="300" /><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2642" title="IMG_1770" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/IMG_1770-189x300.jpg" alt="IMG_1770" width="189" height="300" /></p>
<p>Black Lace Vest &#8211; Dunnes<br />
Spades/ Hearts Culottes &#8211; Primark<br />
Grey Cotton Tights &#8211; New Look<br />
Black Cardigan with <strong><em>SHOULDER PADS!!!</em></strong> &#8211; Asda<br />
Boots &#8211; M&amp;S<br />
Necklace &#8211; H&amp;M<br />
Bangles &#8211; Topshop/ Vintage</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2643" title="DSCF4875" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/DSCF4875-110x300.jpg" alt="DSCF4875" width="110" height="300" /><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2644" title="DSCF4878" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/DSCF4878-165x300.jpg" alt="DSCF4878" width="165" height="300" /></p>
<p>I never thought for one second I&#8217;d ever be wearing a piece of clothing that features <em><strong>&#8220;SHOULDER PADS&#8221; </strong></em> but what can I say, I&#8217;m a fashion victim, shoot me&#8230;.. cos I like them&#8230; a lot  <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>I think it would be fair to say that we&#8217;re having a bit of an Indian Summer in Bangor!</p>
<p>While I want to fully embrace this unexpected treat, the pessimist in me is pretty sure that the moment I dare to go bare legged again the heavens will open.</p>
<p>Therefore I&#8217;ve compromised with a strapless dress, light cardy and 40 denier tights.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2619" title="Strapless Dress" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/photo_3.jpg" alt="Strapless Dress" width="255" height="624" /></p>
<p>We&#8217;ve already been out once to the park and the cardigan came off. There is a breeze though, so the tights are warranted and not just a paranoid addition <img src='http://dressjunkie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2628" title="photo" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/photo1-286x300.jpg" alt="photo" width="286" height="300" /></p>
<p>I&#8217;m also wearing my New Look Tinker Bell Necklace, so sweet &lt;3 it!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Today was my youngest son&#8217;s first day at Primary School. I&#8217;d love to say he was a delight to get ready and that stress levels were low, but I&#8217;d be lying.</p>
<p>He was clearly nervous which manifested in a full scale tantrum when it came time to get dressed.  I took the opportunity to sneakily record said tantrum (I&#8217;m building up quite a collection of embarrassing moments to show future girlfriends&#8230;.)</p>
<div id="attachment_2588" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 198px">
	<img class="size-medium wp-image-2588" title="Hey ho hey ho...." src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/DSCF4629-198x300.jpg" alt="Noah's Stylish OOTD" width="198" height="300" />
	<p class="wp-caption-text">Noah&#39;s Stylish OOTD</p>
</div>
<p>Thankfully once we got him into the playground he spotted a few familiar faces from nursery and things took a positive turn. So much so that I barely got to walk him into the classroom before he was calmly saying &#8220;See you later mum&#8221;&#8230;&#8230;.. *sniff*</p>
<p>As for me, I dressed casually today</p>
<ul>
<li>Black Ski Pants &#8211; George @ Asda</li>
<li>Swing Style Wolf Tee &#8211; Primark</li>
<li>Red Boyfriend (whatever that means&#8230;) Cardigan &#8211; F&amp;F @ Tesco</li>
<li>Quilted Pumps &#8211; Primark</li>
</ul>
<p>The logic behind the flat shoes being if Noah decided to make a run for it I&#8217;d be hot on his tail!</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2587" title="Hungry like the....." src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/photo.jpg" alt="Hungry like the....." width="276" height="693" /></p>
<p>and yes&#8230;. unashamedly that bed is still unmade xox</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2504" title="wolf tee" src="http://dressjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/wolf-tee1-99x300.jpg" alt="wolf tee" width="99" height="300" />Matt bought me this Wolf print tee in good ole Primarni last week.</p>
<p>I think it was marked £6, but when we got to the till it was £3. Bargaintastic!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s really comfy &amp; cosy (cotton/poly mix) and feels like one of those more expensive soft jersey tees that you&#8217;d get it the likes of Urban Outfitters. Score.</p>
<p>I also love the cut, quite fitted traditional t-shirt up top but then flows out towards the bottom with an uneven hem.</p>
<p>All in all I think it&#8217;s a bit cool.</p>
