New Purchase:Wallet.
This isn't such a recent purchase, but that doesn't make it any less beautiful. I had my eye on it for a while and eventually got over the price and decided it was worth it. My previous wallet was falling apart anyway. It is of brilliant quality and is so interesting. Not that it of much importance, but it's versatile with a lot of outfits. Technically I could use it as a clutch! It can fit my phone and my house key, plus money and cards.
Urban Outfitters
£20
On a side note:
I seem to have lost the majority of my pictures from my previous posts.
If anyone knows how to fix this, that would be great.
If not, I'll just post away and forget about those posts.
Thanks.
New Purchase:Purple Bag.
I've been in the midst of my GCSE exams recently and have been working pretty hard, even if I do say so myself. As a result of this, ma mere has purchased un petit bag for me, which is wonderful!
I just think it's lovely! It's real leather and was purchased in a little shop down in Herne Bay which is on the coast of England. It's purple in case you can't tell and has lovely stitching detail. Perfect for shopping or even attending gigs.

What Have We Got Here?
Well, this is going to be a post to be a post on three items of clothing I have purchased or received over the last couple of months. Without furthur ado, let's begin:
Missguided.com
Velvet Cut-Out Skater Dress
£18.99
(Ignore the annoying model)
I really love this dress and am extremely happy that I bought it. I would have preferred the long-sleeved version but it was no longer in my size, but it looks better on than I thought it would.
This goes pretty well with:
Topshop.com
Velvet Lace-Up Heeled Boots
£78
They are exactly the same as in the picture but with a light brown coloured heel and in black( I think they're green in this picture). I originally wanted them in burgundy but as per usual, they weren't in my size. These were luckily a Christmas present as I could not afford these by myself and I am so happy with them! They are comfy and aren't too high either so can be worn day and night. Unfortunately, they are out of stock, but there is a pair called 'Alfy Suede Boots' that are pretty close!
Another Missguided purchase is:
Missguided.com
Navy Jersey Maxi Skirt
£8.99
There is a theme running through this post, as once again, I wanted this skirt in black but it didn't have my size! However, navy blue is nearly as versatile and it is a very dark blue. It is comfortable and warm, especially with leggings underneath and looks really good on. It was more form-fitting than I thought as it clings to my bum and thighs slightly, but that may be just because I have a small waist and larger hips.

Christmas
Oh Dear God It's been two months! I can only apologise and say that work is burying me at the moment :)
But anyways, I thought I'd talk to you all about CHRISTMAS!!! I LOVE Christmas so much and it is undoubtedly the best time of the year (in my opinion)! Obviously, I know there are people who don't celebrate Christmas for various reasons so I'm not trying to offend anyone!
So anyways, my top 10 things about Christmas are:
1. Christmas Dinner/Lunch (My mum always cooks it and it is soooooooo nice!)
2. It may be cold out there but it's toasty in here (Lounging in my PJs and a roaring fire)
3. Christmas Decorations (Baubles and candles, tinsel and lights, it just makes everything so beautiful!)
4. The Tree (A good old-fashioned Christmas tree, decorated with baubles and it makes the room smell nice too!)
5. Pressies (I am well aware that Christmas is not all about the presents but they are a large part of it-giving and recieving and the mystery of what is wrapped in the coloured paper)
6. Christmas Shopping (I love buying presents, it makes me so happy to see someone like what I give them and Christmas Shopping gets me so excited!)
7. Hot Chocolate (Need I say anything else? Other than perfection in a mug)
8. Snow (Although it never snows on Christmas, it snows around the vicinity of the date which is good enough for me! Snow is amazing and we had a lack of it for ages so it makes it even more special)
9. The Countdown (Advent Calendars, candle calendars, ticking off the days end of school, Christmas songs and Christmas parties-It's all there)
10. Christmas Songs (I love them! Just don't listen to them too much otherwise you'll go mad! None of these new rubbish one's though, the old one's really are the best!)
Undoubtedly, I've probably left heaps out but these are the one's I can think of at the moment! If you have any favourite Christmas stories, or favourite bits of Christmas, or don't even celebrate Christmas and want to share what you do instead, then leave a comment if you so desire! I'll probably do another post on what I'm wishing for for Christmas soon, but for the meantime I'll leave you with some piccies (that's like 'pictures' but I have no idea how to spell it!) to get you all excited!
Gee xxxx

Monki
Love it! Love it! Love it!
I recently found the Monki store off Oxford Street while shopping with one of my friends. I had heard of it from a couple of youtubers and bloggers and decided the clothes looked really pretty! I first looked online and planned to buy a few items later on in the week when I had time. However, the very day I planned to buy these items, I found them in the store off Oxfore Street! Saved me £6 in shipping and I got the clothes immediately! So happy!
Monki, in my opinion, is very unique. Each store has a quirky and different layout and the clothes are lovely and most of the time, well priced. Here are a couple of examples of stores:

I'm not sure where the first store is but the second is the store I went to off Oxford Street in London. As you can see they are very different.
This is what I bought:
Lerima Top
£6
AIDA Singlet
£5
Millie Shirt
£19
I love both the tee and the vest top as the fabric is soft and silky and hangs beautifully! I actually bought the vest top in grey but they don't have the colour online I don't think so I can't show you the picture. But I do plan to get more colours soon. They are great layering pieces and work as a base for most outfits. They are so versatile. Pair them with some jeans and a jacket for a casual look or dress them up with a body con skirt and some wedges.
The Millie shirt is lovely aswell. I bought it in a medium as they didn't have a small and I didn't want to order it in the post to find the small didn't fit. The sizing on Monki is quite strange. So this means the medium is big and baggy and covers my bum. I don't really mind though. I wear it with either of the tops, a pair of denim shorts or black body con skirt and some brown boots or black lace-up brogues. The fact that I wear something tight on the bottom means that the top doesn't swamp me as long as I roll up the sleeves and have the buttons undone. I could also wear it with skinny jeans or leggings as the shirt covers my bum. I'm not a fan of leggings being worn as trousers. Too many people think they can and you end up being able to see their knickers through their leggings! Not attractive at all!
Anyway! That's my jibbering done! Hope you found this useful. You can look online on their website for a store finder or order online if there's not one near!
Speak to you soon!
