7 sleeps till CHRISTMAS! This is too exciting!
As you know, during my hectic weekend of singing at various Christmas concerts, arranging my holidays and enjoying a Saturday night at the Free Live 2012 concert, I did manage to get a few shots for a post done.... (believe it or not?!)
I've been doing some pre-Christmas shopping, as I couldn't wait the extra week for my mom to surprise me! I've been looking for a faux fur since early November, and thanks to 'Select' I finally sourced a high-street steal! Yay! I've also been dying for some velvet in my wardrobe (although I've been avoiding it, due to my best friends phobia) However, Thanks to Top Shop, and my lovely Vodafone rewards voucher, have finally completed my mission...

I fell in love with this Faux fur from Select, as it doesn't spell tacky! I hate the furs that really look their price, and you always have to bare this in mind when shopping. The pattern is subtly, which means I can pair it up with a number of different outfits - I mean who every thought velvet AND furs? The pin attached is courtesy of Primark, and just adds the final touches to the coat. I already went one step further, to buy myself a large furs, but on this particular fur, the three quarter sleeves and cropped jacket, make it great on a night out, as it's not to heavy to carry!
I loved the lace detail on this Primark top. It was initially one of my
shirts for sixth form, but it was so cute I've just been wearing it
every weekend instead!
The velvet shorts are now my no.1 wardrobe
item. I just love the vintage style buttons, and they fit lovely -
unlike many of the Top Shop shorts, which are always too big or too
small!
When accessorising an outfit like this - always go simple. I've added a broach to my jacket, and a delicate vintage bracelet, that I 'borrowed' from my grandma!
What Blondies Wearing: Top - Primark, Faux Fur Jacket - Select, Shorts - Top Shop, Shoes - Matalan, Bracelet - Vintage.
With 7 days to Christmas, I'm racing around like a maniac - but do not fear I'll always find time for my blogging! :D
Have you been wearing your Faux Fur's yet? - If so let me know!
Lots of Love,
