I decided to brave Oxford street on my day off with my mum to get a few last Christmas presents, and as I'm trying to do some more fashion related posts I thought I would show you what I wore. This is a pretty everyday outfit for me as I like to keep things simple and practically live in my Zara jeans. I brought this dress from Topshop during a 20% off student event they had a few months ago. I originally fell in love with the longer sleeved version of this but I couldn't find it in my size anywhere so I settled for this. I really love the tiny embroidered hearts and flowers on the dress, they really liven up the simple black dress.
The dress itself is really flattering and I find that it because of it's length and shape it makes me appear slimmer than I actually am (which is always a bonus!) The only thing I would say is that for the price (£46.00) that the material is quite thin and there is no lining so the dress is a little see through, but it's nothing that a long vest or slip can't sort out.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed my second OOTD and please let me know if you would like me to do some more, as they're still pretty new and scary to me! I hope you're enjoying the holiday festivities and it's only 2 days until Christmas!
I also recently joined Lookbook, so if you have an account I'd love it if you wanted to come take a look!
I've been pretty bad with my posts this week, but I finally have a beauty review coming in the next few days so look out for that. I've just been busy spending time with my boyfriend, friends and family before I go back to university in the next week and a half.
1. The hilarious badge my little sister made me to show we're best friends, I'm going to miss her so much when I go back to university, I can't believe she's in year 10! 2. A dress from Miss Selfridge I saw and fell in love with and then brought a few days later, 3. I went to the Paralympics the other day and this is a shot from the Mens wheelchair basketball, 4.Police Horses at the Olympic Park, 5.As I am sure some of you know one of my favourite things ever is frozen yoghurt, so I when I was in the Westfields in Stratford I just had to go to the Pinkberry, 6. Katy Perry for O.P.I nail varnish using the bows from a haul I did a while ago (the link for that is here) 7. TGI Friday's, I had the vegetable fajita's they were so good, definitely one of my new favourite meals, 8. I'm currently looking for house bits for my new room this year and I spotted this Hello Kitty x Liberty duvet set and cushion. I love it but at a total of £55 for both, I think it's a bit too much? 9. I went to a Hoss Intropia event last night with my mum and this is my outfit of the evening.
