Feline Fun

I'm finally putting up the pics of the second dress I purchased at the sample sale before my holiday. I kept forgetting to get photos when I was wearing it but here they are.  As you will see I'm wearing my trusty black cardigan again but I thought I'd try a belt over the top of it to change it up a bit.  Mario, Vicki's cat, decided he was very photogenic so there were plenty of laughs taking these photos, and plenty of cuddles too.





Can you spot Mario?



Dress:Mado, Cardigan:Primark, Tights:Primark, Boots:Miss Sixty, Necklace:Amazon, Belt:Peacocks

I think this dress is my favourite. I love the layered skirt and although it's short the long sleeves balance it out.  What are your favourite items of clothing?

Follow The Twig Covered Road

I did a post before my holiday about a sample sale I went to and I promised to show you guys what I bought.  After trying on literally dozens of dresses I picked this one below.  After a good root around I found the leggings to match which I just had to have.  I love the stripes on top with the patterned skirt and that the skirt doesnt sit flat.  You can't tell in the photos but the leggings have tiny red dots on them making them a bit different too.

Vicki and I went out to take these photos the other night and I got covered in twigs and leaves trying to be a bit more creative with my posing.  Its coming along slowly and I got some funny looks from passers by, especially when I got up off the ground in the middle of an area of ferns lol

I'm off to Wolverhampton for a wedding in the morning and its a 5am start!  So I'm off to bed early to get plenty of beauty sleep.  I have my camera with me to take lots of lovely pics which I'll share with you when I get back.

Hope you all have a nice weekend:)

My cardigan cost me £7 in primark and I have worn it to death.  I am getting it in every colour if they bring it out again this winter.

Designer Sample Sale

I had the best night on Tuesday browsing through rails upon rails of designer clothes and the great thing.....they were cost price! My bff  Vicki works as a fashion agent assistant and every season they have a sale to sell off the samples.  I spent a glorious three hours trying on a rail full of gorgeous dresses for autumn/winter and I was very pleased with the three new items I brought home:)  It would be so easy to go overboard and spend a fortune so I always have a limit (or else Paul would kill me lol).

Here are a few pics of some of the things I tried on.  One dress inparticular I tried on for fun, I'm sure you'll be able to tell which.  As fabulous as it was I just wouldn't have anywhere to wear it. 


This is what I wore to the sale.  This lovely bellissima dress is from one of the lines Vicki stocks and the cardigan is good old fashion Primark.



Did you guess which dress I was talking about earlier?  I'll do a post soon and show you what I bought.  The best part about the whole night was doing all this with friends and then having a big dinner afterwards back at my house.  Nothing beats shopping with the girls.
