Merry Christmas

Okay so it isn't quite Christmas yet...
 
 but tomorrow I will be stuffed with yummy food, surrounded by my lovely family and hopefully will have got some great presents so I thought now would be the best time to wish you all a very merry Christmas.
 
Have a wonderful day full of joy and I hope Santa brings you all everything you wished and dreamed for!
 
Lots of love and kisses

Living Through The End Of The World

Coat- Debanhams / Turtle Neck- H&M / Dungarees- Topshop / Fur Scarf- Charity Shop originally John Lewis / Bag- Charity Shop originally Marks and Spencer / Ankle Boots- New Look / Jewelry- Accessorize
So much for the end of the world, we are all still here and going strong.
 
Actually I am not going very strong at the moment having caught the coughy coldy virus thing that's going round at school. Just what I wanted before christmas. So right now I am curled up in a thick scarf and many layers hoping I will get my voice back in time for not just work tomorrow but of course christmas.
 
As from my last post I expressed my love for dungarees and my dad very kindly bought me these Topshop dungarees for speech day I had last week where I got my GCSE's and prizes. But I couldn't resist wearing them before hand so this is what I wore last weekend, I paired the dungarees with a turtle neck, thick tights and a furry warm scarf for the chill in the air.
 
Have a lovely weekend

A Bit Of A Mash Up

Jumper- Charity shop originally Next / Jeans- Cheap Mondays / Shoes- BHS / Bag- Vero Moda / Headband- Claires Accessories / Jewellry- Accessorize
 
 
 This look is a bit of a mash together partly arabian night, a bit ladylike with a splash of Mary Poppins. This jumper was a recent charity shop find, it is the softest jumper I own and is a lovely powder blue colour which I thought went perfectly with my pearls (sorry you've seen them so much!). The headband was a recent purchase too, I don't think I suit hats very much as well as creating the hat hair drama so this was my halfway point. Finally this is as my dad calls it my Mary Poppins bag, sometimes I am suprised at what I find in it, it really does have what seems a never ending bottom.
 
Sorry I look rather tired in these photos, tired is just how I feel at the moment. As much as I love Christmas this year there seems to be so much on and so much to do that it is just truely wearing me down. Not only is school work piling up to be due in by christmas, there are Christmas presents to buy and I have costumes to organise for the school pantomine. And not enough hours in the day. I just cannot wait for the holidays to relax with friends and family.
 
Thanks for reading, enjoy your week

Simplicity

Jumper- Asos / Jeans- Cheap Mondays / Bag and Shoes- Primark / Pearls- Accessorize
I am such a fussy person when it comes to jeans, I can spend hours, days, weeks, months searching for a pair. That said I own a few pairs of jeans but I have to say as much as I love them all none are perfect. I have ones which are too short, too big round the top, a dodgy zip and ones which have ended up covered in paint from my art lessons. These Cheap Monday jeans are no exception as much as I loved that they were half price when I got to the store on Carnaby Street, they are a tad tight around the top now. If anyone ever finds the perfect pair let me know !
 
Rant over back to the outfit, I went for a very classic look matching up the white jeans with a black jumper and neutral accessories. I felt really good in this outfit and really enjoyed the simplicity of it. Simplicity is something which sounds so easy but is probably one of the hardest looks to achieve truly.
 
Hope your week is going okay

Finishing With Some Pearls

Coat- Debenhams / Fur Scarf- Charity shop previously John Lewis / Jumper- Asos / Trousers, Shoes and Bag- Primark / Neck, Bracelet and Earrings- Accessorize
Sorry for the complete lack of posting recently unlike those who cannot wait to wrap up in jumpers and scarves when it comes to winter, I manage to become completely disfunctional. Sometimes I think it would be better if I hybanated all winter and just came out when it got warm again.
 
I wore this outfit last night when the family and I went out for dinner with some of my Dads friends. I always typically think when going out in the evening to put on a dress but yesterday I felt like wearing something a bit less girly. I ended up wearing these palazzo pants with a loose jumper and of course finishing with some pearls.
 
Have a lovely week Love Jade xxx
