Birthday Haul

So suffice to say I may have gone a wee bit over board with the whole "I'm gonna treat myself for my birthday" excuse, but heck I was turning 40, a pretty hefty milestone I feel. Not to mention, being a November baby means their is some awesome stuff in the shops for holiday season. Too much. Lol

So here's a look at what I picked up.

Floral Sock Boots - Topshop

Distressed Vinyl Patent Ankle Boots - Forever 21

Distressed Vinyl Patent Ankle Boots - Forever 21

Crushed Velvet Ankle Sock Boots - Forever 21

Naked Palette in Heat - Urban Decay

Faux Leather Bralette, Velour Bralette, Diamante Hair Band - All Forever 21

Polka Dot Top - H&M

Faux Fur Coat, Wide Leg Trousers, Polka Dot Top - All H&M, Ankle Sock Boots - Topshop

As you can see, my love affair with footwear is still very strong, but as I said it was my birthday 😉 😊

I've linked anything that is still available and tried to find alternatives for some things that are not.

Sometimes it's not about changing your whole wardrobe, it's about finding those one or two key peices to update your look.

Thanks for dropping by

A Year In My Steps

It's no big secret that my one big weakness is shoes. The purchase of a good pair of shoes is like a massive drugs rush. I get that same rush when I get home and try them on with half my wardrobe. I know its a sickness. But one I have no intention of getting help for any time soon.

Anyway here are a few of the shoes that have made their way into my collection over the last year.

Of course I'd be lying if I said there hadn't been one or 2 additions to this family since making this post but then that's for next time.

January Haul

For the first time in my adult life I can honestly say I didn't go too crazy with the January sales or general purchases. January is already a very difficult month as it is anyway. Many of us are trying to recover from the dent in our wallets the holiday season has bestowed upon us and then on top of that if like me you have to wait a good 5 weeks between your December and January pay, then you know how even more precious every single penny is. This year I played it clever. Somehow during the latter months of 2013 I made double final payments on 2 of my cards and between them was in credit near on £80. I also had a couple of gift vouchers stashed away. I had the good foresight to save them for the tighter months of January so I could indulge in some sale shopping.

Anyhoo this is my little haul of goodies.

Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Skin Protectant £25

Strappy Ankle Boots  £34.99 - H&M

Necklace £7.50 - Miss Selfridges   Shoes £30- Topshop

Shoes - Topshop

Clutch Limited Edition £10, Earrings 1 £2, Earrings 2 £2, Bra £4

Jumper  £15 - Topshop

Chelsea Boots £39.99 - H&M

What goodies and bargains did you get in January, I'd be interested to read about them. Please feel free to comment below and of course please don't forget to G+1/like this post

Thank you
