Tartan Tales

Shirt: Topshop

Shoes: Converse

Necklace: Topshop

Bag: Louise Vuitton

Today I was off work so I decided to do a couple of blog posts so technically now it's yesterdays outfit... Confused...yah? Me too. 

Anyway, I am absolutely in love with my silver converse. I got them from work the other day because I fell instantly in love with them as soon as soon as I walked past their stand and I knew I had to have them. Jay told me that converses can come up quite big so rather than my usual size 5 (this time last year I was a size 6 and apparently my feet have shrunk...odd) so I decided to try the 4.5 and they fit really well, a bit snug so I know when I've worn them a bit they will fit just fine. If you follow me on Instagram (@ambrissa) you will see that my mum and dad got me a pair of VANS when they came for a visit so I've been living in converse and vans the last few days, obviously begrudgingly taking them off for work. 

I also got this shirt on a my most recent order from Topshop and I love it BUT because I'm so used to wearing super baggy clothes I was worried that this was too small even though it's still hanging off me and it took me all my willpower not to take it back and get the next size up as this was already a size up from my actual size...sheesh. I really love the cut out shoulders and the high collar. As you have probably seen its rare that I don't have a collar of some sort going on. 

You can't really see my necklace to well but if you click the link you can see it much better, another love of mine. 

The bag..oh the bag... I got this a while back as a treat for myself for finishing my dissertation, it's the NEVERFUL in MM and I adore it, it's such a good size for work, as the name says its never full. So I can easily fit my packed lunch (love a packed lunch) a spare of shoes (must take the vans/converse off at some point) and anything else a girl might need.

I'm working at half 8 tomorrow/today so I suppose I better get some stuff ready for work and get off the iPad. 

I'm thinking of doing a post about my favourite blushes? Opinions? 

What's your fave foot wear?

Dippin and Dryin

Jumper- Topshop
Listening too- Bob Marley- Buffalo Soldier

So I am super sorry for lack of attention to my blog. I'm not adjusting very well to my new job and am just exhausted by the time I get home and want my bed.
The pictures aren't great as I have been doing it from my iPhone and iPad as I've not had a chance to find a white wall for my tripod or the funds for a new camera. Boo.
So another apology for dodgy pictures and being MIA.

So what's new in Amber land... I have finally unpacked so all my clothes are in one place (hallelujah) and I can get ready in the morning without trying to wade through all my bags of clothes to find one pair of tights haha.

I'm missing home but my mum and dad are coming for a visit on Sunday night, I am sooooo excited to see them for a few days BUT of course, I'm working..., I did ask for my days off to be Monday and Tuesday if possible so obviously they would be Sunday and Thursday :-/ oh well mum and dad are going to stay an extra day to see me on Thursday yay, and mum says wheel maybe buy me a new pair of VANS, super yay.

I've been recently using Alpha H Liquid Gold and oh my days it has made such a difference to my skin. Il put a review up soon when I've used it a bit more.
Rambling on a bit but I have so much to say, I think I will do an Instagram post soon and just ramble and ramble on that one but that way you can just loom at the pictures and ignore the rest if needs be.

Also watched Dirty Dancing for FIRST TIME last night. I was missing out, what an ace film!!!!

The iPad isnt working so well for blogging so il try and find Jays MAC and borrow that for a while as my wee DELL is on her last legs. Il try this post on the iPad and see how it goes but will need to get the laptop for the next I reckon.
Any tips on blogging from an iPad??

Blazer Security

Dress- Urban Outfitters

Blazer- Topshop (old)

Belt- Vintage

Listening too- Robson & Jerome- Up On The Roof

My final blogger who inspires me is the lovely Victoria from VIPXO, she does these great posts about finds on eBay and some of the treasures that she finds are just amazing!!! Things that are just as nice as high street and designer but for a fraction of the price, I love her eBay posts, such a bargain hunter. She always looks so classy and that is what inspired this outfit, she wears blazers and dresses and midi skirts and all sorts but always seems to look so smart and put together. 
This dress is from Urban Outfitters about Christmas time, I have actually only worn it once but I really do like the cut on it. However the blazer has been out my wardrobe more than anything else I reckon, it is such a go to item and so soft and the amount of times that its been washed its kept it shape so well.
So that is the end of my INSPIRATION WEEK, I hope you have enjoyed it as much I have enjoyed writing about which bloggers inspire me, there are so many more that will appear throughout my time in the bloggersphere so keep your eyes peeled and watch this space.
Whilst doing my bloggers inspiration posts I got some amazing responses from the bloggers them selves and it really made my week, you feel like such a small fish in a big sea when your up against bloggers like the ones I have mentioned this week but they all started somewhere and its so refreshing to know that they appreciate interest in their blogs just like I do.
What do you think of the blog WEEK ideas? 
DIY, INSPIRE, RENEWAL? Are they something that you like or something that should be staggered a bit more?

If My Name Was On A Tshirt

T shirt- H&M

Skirt- H&M

Belt- Topshop

Watching- Super Nanny (again)

Continuing my INSPIRATION week (decided to do it as a week thingy and then maybe do them every once in a while) I decided to do a post inspired by fellow blogger Alice from SHADENFREUDE, I was looking through all her outfit posts the other night and noticed how well she pulls of full skirts and slogan T's so I thought I would try a bit of both... was going to wear my Ramones T but I have already worn it with this skirt so didn't think it would quite fit for this post. I also don't even know what my T shirt says but it has little balls of wool on it and its just so cute, i think it says "difference". Alice's outfits are always so well put together and I loved rummaging my wardrobe to find an outfit inspired by her look. I wanted to wear a cute blouse and really steal her look but I thought I would try and take bits from her different posts and make something my own, although looking at it I wish I had gone for a blouse. (BOO)

My pictures just weren't working and I think its because my hair is up funny and made me look like I had a pin head, as you do. So these were the only two were my head looks a normalish size. 

Not even kidding but E4 is driving me mad just now, they repeat Gok Wan and Super Nanny twice before lunch time and then repeat How I Met Your Mother and Big Bang Theory in the mornings and at night... what is going on?

What are your fave things to watch on tele just now? I need some new TV.

Disco Disco Disco... Pants

Shirt- Topshop

Trousers- American Apparel (Size S for anyone wandering what size to get) 

Belt- Vintage

Boots- Topshop Alibi (size up, they are small made)

Necklace- Topshop

Listening too- Twin Atlantic- Crash Lands

*   OK so my new idea for the blog is to do a INSPIRATION POST every once in a while, maybe once a week or month, not quite decided yet.
*   This week I wanted to do inspiration from a blogger. I chose this blogger as she always has such great outfit ideas although mainly being a beauty blogger. GH0STPARTIES. The necklace I am wearing was seen on her blog and I fell in love with it and searched for it everywhere before finding it in my local Topshop. She even tweeted me back when I tweeted about how excited I was to finally have it (yes I AM THAT SAD).
*    I've been a bit funny about Disco Pants for years but I am SO SO SO glad I finally bit the bullet and got them however this is the first time I have actually worn them out the house. I am really funny about having the old crotch-el area out and I am also really funny about my hips they are a weird shape, they sort of stuck out and I am not a fan of that... but I wanted to do my inspiration post properly and Kate always looks great with clothes tucked into her Disco Pants so I thought I would give it a bash and just deal with my odd shape for one day. 
I don't think you are meant to wear a belt with Disco Pants? They don't have belt loops? but I am one of those folk who just likes belts. 

People have brought up the fact that I very rarely put my face in pictures so here ya's go... THAT THING ON MY SHOULDERS IS ME FACE!

I would really love some feedback on the blog or posts or whatever, I will always reply to any comments so please feel free to ask any questions :-)

THE Jumper

 Jumper- Topshop

Leggings- American Apparel (ASOS)

Listening too- Ben Howard- Only Love

*    My WARDROBE RENEWAL challenge was really fun and I have seen lots of things hidden in my wardrobe for the next one, this week I have decided to do a DIY CHALLENGE so we will see how that goes. I've got lots of ideas for it and think I will try my first one out today maybe. 

*    This jumper is an absolute BABE of a jumper. I fell in love with it after seeing it on LLYMLRS blog, I searched EVERYWHERE on the internet trying to find a seller, I called every store I could think of, full story on my Aye Aye Cap'n post, long story short I finally got it and I love it. I wore it with my ever trusty American Apparel leggings because I needed to run into town and do house work so went for comfort. The studs on the jumper give it such a good weight on the shoulders that it pulls it down rather than having that square shoulder look that most studded shoulders end up with. 

*    I went everywhere in town and the big supermarkets today trying to find clothes dye for part of the DIY CHALLENGE but all the wee fabric shops seem to be shut on a Sunday so I will try in the morning and hope they aren't shut for the Jubilee. 

If anyone has anymore DIY ideas I would love to hear them? I love doing things like this, I decorated my wellies for TITP one year and put studs and diamonds on them. So tacky but so cool. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated?

Cruise Fashion Show

T Shirt- Topshop

Shorts- Zara

Necklace- Topshop (sale)

Listening too- Neon Trees- Everybody Talks 

HAPPY JUNE EVERYONE

OH AND YAY WE HIT 2000 VIEWS :-) THANKYOU

So today I was working for a fashion show at Gleneagles Hotel for, Cruise, the store that sells all the amazing designers like YSL, Mulberry, Alexander McQueen. God the clothes and bags were amazing. I was just staring at things wishing they could be mine BUT life came back and slapped me in the face. Boo. 

Anyway... I wore these shorts for my WARDROBE RENEWAL as I haven't worn them in ages and thought they deserved an outing and this top is amazing I just needed to wear it. 

I drove into the hotel and felt so out of place in my wee Janice (my car) against all the Range Rovers, Porsche's and Rolls Royce's so I parked her between two massive black Range Rovers to look after her. Walking up to the door I felt so under dressed and maybe should of gone for my tweed chinos and a nice blouse but hey ho it could have been worse. Also decided not to wear any rings or to many bracelets there was noway I would risk snagging a £2000 dress or scratching a £3000 hand bag which knowing my luck would happen. 

We got served the most amazing buffet for lunch which was sandwiches and all these weird but interesting types of vedge and sea food dishes it was so fancy and well put together, they also served glass bottles YES GLASS BOTTLES of coca-cola and irn-bru... awesome or what? 

I have had such a good day but I just need to take my makeup off and have some tea because I am so tired for some reason.I think it was all the excitement. I really love these shows and I will miss them so much when I leave along with a lot of other things but I wont get into that just now because the time is creeping away and its not long until I go now. (slight sniff and sad face) but hey ho onwards and upwards. 

Indoor Picnic

Shirt- Topshop

Leggings- American Apparel/ASOS

Necklace- Topshop (sale)

Listening too- Lenka- Heart Skips a Beat

OK so these pictures aren't the best but I just didn't want to put my face on here today (whats new) and as usual the hair is back up in a topknot where it belongs half a day was enough.

Continuing with my wardrobe challenge (3 days... doing well) I got this shirt yonks ago when I used to work for Topshop and it was always something I used to reach for as a backup but over the years its just been pushed further and further back into my wardrobe so today I dragged it out (un-ironed) and wore it with my American Apparel disco pant style leggings and a massive necklace that I found in the sale at Topshop and I am still in two minds about but I like it with this shirt. 

I had an indoor picnic with my friends Joanna and Jillian today and it was A-MA-ZING, we got fresh rolls (still hot YUM), different cheeses and salad and loads of juices, biscuits crisps oh and a massive chippy pizza. I also tried Reese's Pieces for the first time, died and went to heaven, almost as good as KitKat Peanut Butter, maybe better. 

I ordered a dress of eBay a while back and it arrived this morning, never felt so fat in my life the dress wouldn't even go over my bum and I don't exactly have a massive bum or I didn't think I did. Luckily the lovely seller has agreed to give me a refund I just have to find the time to get to a post office.

I am doing a fashion show the Glasgow based fashion store CRUISE tomorrow (woopty woop) at Gleneagles hotel so I am super excited (don't know what to wear), this means there may not be a an outfit post for a few days unless I manage to snap some shot before I leave tomorrow as I am working all day Saturday too. 

I've been wearing my hair wavy the last few days seen as it is actually long enough to get the wavers in, I am starting to much prefer it to straight so no doubt this will be my new addiction. 

I want to wear something union jacky for the weekend but don't actually think I own anything like that... hmmmm

Please Excuse The Thing On My Shoulders

Blouse- Vintage

Skirt- Topshop

Belt- Topshop (was attached to shorts)

Ring- eBay

• Apologies for the awful picture quality I just couldn't seem to take any today, obviously just having one of those days. My plan was to do a WARDROBE RENEWAL post and pick 5 or so blouses/tops to bring back to the front of my wardrobe and then try it with dresses etc etc but my camera was apparently not wanting to play that game so I thought instead I will try and do it individually through the week, starting yesterday with that Topshop dress I wore to the loch. Weel see how it goes.. maybe even try not to buy anything until I leave... OOOO CHALLENGE ACCEPTED... maybe. 
• Anyway today's outfit is this wee blouse I found in a charity shop its from Etam? Anyone remember that place? Dont think they even exist anymore. Looking at the pictures again I dont know if I actually like it with this skirt... maybe I should of worn skinny skinny jeans? Yes I should of. I'm sure it was Rebecca and I that were on our lunch and decided to have a browse and we both left with floral blouses from Etam. 
• I woke up with a horrible headache today so instead of my normal post madness this will probably be the only one and I may just go back to bed.
• Burn from yesterday browning nicely. 

Here Comes The Sun

Top- Zara, Skirt- Topshop (old), Necklace- eBay

Long time no see... well like 3 days. 

This is what I wore to go down to Melrose with Jay, I needed something uber light and comfy because it was super hot. This is another one of those Zara backless T shirts but I didn't take a picture of the back for some reason. This skirt is such an old Topshop number that I never ever wear, it is one of those skirts that is tight at the hem and baggy everywhere else so it sits funny from the side. Also please ignore the mess of my face it was so hot and I was so full of hay fever I didn't want to put to much makeup on. 

There will be a post later about the wee trip and lots of pictures too, I get very snap happy when I go anywhere that's not my flat or even sometimes in my flat. 

Oh yeah... this wee necklace was a great find on eBay (link under the picture) its like a knitted rosary necklace.. sounds odd but I absolutely love it, its a bit more fun than the standard Topman/NewLook rosary's.  

Must dash... work to do. I did actually get m shift cancelled but I am an idiot and left Melrose super early instead of waiting to see if I was still working so I could of spent the day in the sun once mum and dad arrived to pick the motor-home up. Doosh.

Harold Runstaman

Dress- Topshop via eBay, Gillet- Topshop Sale, Necklace- Topshop, Rings- ASOS (similar) & eBay.

Today I have a special guest star :-) HARRY!!! or Harold Runstaman as Jay calls him. He is a little Jack-Chi. 
Because I have Harry here I'm going for the comfy look, need to take the wee monkey for a big walk round the lake at uni and wear him out a bit, he has so much energy it is unreal. This dress was "one that got away" when it was in Topshop ages ago and I was devastated when I kept NOT buying it so when I saw it on eBay I had to have it, and for a fraction of the price as well (link above). I also got this gillet as a wee bargain in the Topshop sale. They call me Hunter... Bargain Hunter HA so not funny. I am also wearing another YSL style ring, addiction much? the seller was so lovely and I was so chuffed when the ring arrived, its totally different from the other ones I got. I will try and put a closer/better picture up of it soon. Maybe tomorrow?
Meeting Kirstie at 2 to go walkies and maybe get a coffee (or an ice tea for me), also need to post two 2 metre iPhone chargers to Dundee for Fiona and Helen, I ordered them on my eBay but the address was obviously mine. Honestly the best things ever, iPhone chargers are so short and these massive cables are such a good idea, even ordered one for my dad for his iPad aswell :-) such a good idea.
Anyhoo, stuff to do people to see.
Have a nice day Y'all.

Toast

Leggings-American Apparel ASOS, Blouse- Topshop, Jumper- Ralph Lauren Outlet, Ring- eBay, Necklace- H&M, Boots- Zara

This morning Jay took me for breakfast at a wee cafe in town called TOAST, I had an amazing panini (do not know how to spell that) with chicken tikka and mozzarella, bit early for that I know but it was gooood. Inspired by Fiona's order at baguette express on Thursday. 

Surprisingly this is the first time I have worn this shirt, I got it for my birthday in March from my mum and dad after pining over it for so long, probably since Christmas and for some reason I haven't worn it. Now I've worn today I am in love all over again :-), its not in stock anymore but they have a sleeveless version which is on my list for summer :-P The jumper came from the Ralph Lauren outlet in Gretna, I insist on stopping here every time Jay and I pass because there are always some amazing bargains. The ring is the black version of what I spoke about in my YSL Rings post the other day. Decided on comfort for today as I have a Mount Everest amount of washing to do today and what not.

Black and White Eyes

Blazer- Primark, Belt-Vintage, Shorts- River Island, Necklace- Topshop, Ring- eBay

Been back at mum and dads today so havnt really done much except eat and spend time with parents. 
Dundee was great and I ate enough Indian to last me a week. Also, I am such an enabler making Fiona spend money because I cant and trying to get Fiona and Helen onto the eBay addiction train.
THIS is the £2 bargain blazer from Primark, its a bit big but for £2 I dont care ha. These shorts are from River Island from ageeees ago but I dragged them out recently after seeing Marissa in a similar (nicer) pair and it reminded me about them , only downfall of the shorts is that the laser cut sticks to your tights! Frustrating!!
Oh also my black YSL-esque ring (eBay) arrived that I mentioned in a previous post, (here)..I LOVE IT! Only thing is I think I ordered a size to small as it only fits my ring finger boo but to be honest I dont care because it looks fine and it will go with EVERYTHING!!! 
Got lots of outfit posts ready to be put up so I'll maybe to some intense blogging on Sunday if I get a chance. 
Any hoo, short post today. Off to work to serve some pizzzza from Italia.

Dundizzle ma Nizzle

Dress-Topshop, Belt- Vintage, Necklace- Topshop, Ring- Tomorrows post ;-)

Seriously need to master the looking at the camera thing.

I'm going to Dundee today to see my friends Fiona and Helen to go for a buffet (YUM) then get loads of junk food and watch films, one of which is Forest Gump (I have never seen this film) this is why I opted for the comfiest thing I could find in my wardrobe, this dress ridiculously still had its tags on and I have had it for about a year, I wore it into town to get lots of sweets for tonight teamed with a big fuzzy cardigan that Jay got me for my Christmas but I can only wear it for a wee while because its itchy but I LOVE it (will no doubt appear in a post at some point but I don't have a link). Tonight I think I will go for a big, baggy, cozy, comfy zipped hoody, classy.I also just realized that I have no bracelets on the pictures.. this is very unusual for me usually I have about 5/6 bracelets on, from charm bracelets to wee hand made ones, I like to mix and match my casual and smart as well as gold and silver jewelry, always have. 

I bought the new DKNY meringue perfume a few weeks ago and love it but decided to have a scoosh of the pink one (don't know what its called) wasn't such a fan, I think it was maybe a bit too sweet so I will stick with my yellow one :-)

I'm going to do a review of a few eBay sellers I've used over the next few days, hopefully have it scheduled to go up tomorrow but will probably go up Friday as I am running so late, standard, and I'm going back to my mum and dads for the night on Thursday, I think they have empty nest syndrome since my sister left for Holland so I'm going home to relieve them of this syndrome with one child, maybe. I love going back to my parents house for a couple of days its such a break from everything and I get to see my wee dog Chancer and the rabbits and just get to spend some real time with my parents, its not the same over the phone, I cant get cuddles or hot water bottles oh and soup, my mum makes the best soup EVER. FACT. There is always a new flavor waiting for me to the taste test on, last time it was spicy sweet potato soup, oh my days it was amazing, blew the roof of my mouth of but was so worth it. Then of course dad gives me loads of dad advice about my "next step" in my life (full time job ahhhh) but it is nice just to be around them and chill out in the house :-) nothing beats home comforts. 

Anyway enough of that... got an amazing bargain in Primark today... a gorgeous striped blazer for... wait for it... TWO GREAT BRITISH POUNDS!!! £2. I am wearing it tomorrow so didn't want to ruin the surprise by putting up a picture but it is smashing!

What is the best bargain you have ever found? I love this stuff, just give us a wee comment...

Lost My Keys...

Tshirt- Zara, Belt- Vintage, Skirt- Topshop, Necklace-H&M, Rings- JWLRY ASOS, Nails- Models Own Beach Party & Hedonist

Having a bad face day.

Today is a bit of a sloppy day, I have so much housework to before my friends from my old work (Topshop) come round for pizza night, the flat is such a mess and Jay is at uni all day so I'll be doing it all myself unless Harry decides to help me. 

This top and skirt are both super comfy as their both that soft jersey material, perfect for a day in the house and nipping out to walk the dog/Sainsbury. I absolutely love this Zara T, I saw it and without even a bit of thought I just bought it. I got it in a M because as you will soon notice I wear most things big. The belt was a treasure find in the charity shop near my mum and dads house, the have an eBay site too with all sort of great finds. I once got a vintage Gucci handbag for an amazing price from them. 

Trying my luck on LOOKBOOK and CHICTOPIA to get the blog a bit more noticed, weev had 500 readers in the last 3 days YAY!! but not so many followers (4 Boo) but its early days yet :-)

Tomorrow I'm going to Dundee to see Fiona for a good old catch up and some cocktails, Fiona and I have been best friends for a good 18 years even with me leaving school for college then both of us going to university in different cities. I haven't got a clue what to wear. I'm not very good at planning these things in advance, usually when I plan an outfit I change it last minute.

I also decided last night that I am going postpone going down to England so soon and go to Holland to visit my sister for a few weeks with mum and dad in their motor home and Chancer of course, the head to England on the way back through with all my stuff squished into the boot of the motor home, plus my car, plus mums car. My sister Fearn moved to Holland to work on a show jumping yard for an Olympic rider, I am so used to talking to her on the phone everyday and seeing her at least every few weeks, I miss her like crazy so it will be so nice to go over and spend some proper time with her and my mum and dad, Chancer of course. 

I feel like trying a new pizza for pizza date night tonight, I work at pizzahut so I usually eat the same thing- Terri Special - Ham, Chilies and Goats Cheese YUM... but I fancy a change, any ideas?

Beans and Sausages

Cardigan-Topshop, Shirt- Monki, Leggings- Topshop, Necklaces- HM, Rings- JWLRY&ASOS

The post arrived this morning and I was super excited to open my parcel, it was my first ever purchase from Monki so I was looking forward to trying it out. I bought the white boy fit shirt, so happy with it. Its a good length to be worn with leggings or even on its own as it covers all the necessary parts and its so comfy and loose so could be easily worn from day to night. Chuffed. Was a bit worried about ordering from a shop I had ordered from before, quality, size, fit etc are always something to keep in mind. I ordered the shirt in M/L as I like to wear things big (not a fan of the bodycon) it maybe is a wee bit to big so should of gone for the XS/S but I still love it. So either the sizes are bang on or a bit big. I will probably go for XS/S when I repurchase... which I no doubt will. The quality is pretty good too, the material is soft and comfy, only thing is the shirt is a bit thin so would have to wear something underneath. They have so many nice dresses that I already have on my wish list :-P

Not doing much today, nip to town and get some bits and I have a mountainous pile of washing to try and get at least half way through by tomorrow as I've got my old work mates (Topshop) coming over for pizza and a gossip.

These pictures make me look super short I think, or maybe its because I usually have a slight heel on. 

Totally unrelated but does anyone know when the SAAS loan date is?

Snowing In May

Shirt- Topshop, Skirt- H&M, Belt- Vintage, Boots- Topshop, Necktie- Haberdashery, Rings- JWLRY, ASOS

Apologies for the awful photo quality and dodgy edits this is the first ever outfit post I have done like this.

Moving on, its SNOWING outside... it is MAY!!! Today I met my Mum and she brought me up my Dads old camera tripod from the early 90'2, its actually in really good condition so that was a nice surprise. I decided to go for an outfit that was a bit darker as the weather isn't exactly floral dress and sandals kind of weather, so I dragged this wee denim shirt back out which was worn alot through winter and teamed it with my H&M jersey skirt, cant go wrong with a black skirt if you ask me. 

I'm going to the cinema tonight to see salmon fishing on the Yemen so thought the outfit could go from lunch with my Mum to the cinema at night.

Last night I put an absolute hoard of stuff on eBay, phoning my Mum back and forwards to get the right sizes and condition (I stupidly took it all back to mum and dads house to clear some space from my flat). Need to make some pennies for the big move down south.

Rings Rings Rings

As promised multiple times here is our first proper blog post :-)

Please excuse the over exposure in the picture of the rings, definitley need to ask Santa for a new camera.

Obviously Marissa and I cant be together at all times so we will quite often have separate posts but that just doubles the fun if you ask me.

Anyhoo, in the post this morning I got a wee package and couldn't for the life of me think what it could be because I had only ordered things about 2 days ago and post is never that fast here... I was "TOTES" chuffed to open up these amazing rings from JWLRY, a blog shop run by the known blogger LLYMLRS.
I'm usually a gold kind of jewelry wearer, the tackier the better if you ask me, quite often mix my metals as well. I loved these and kept going back to them then decided I had to have them, for all 5 it only cost me £10 and as I said the postage was super fast. The rings are really good quality and look pretty expensive, which is a rare to find with costume jewelry. Also love the adjustable band as it means my wee fingers and my fat fingers (yes, you read it right, i have abnormal hands) can be adorned with these amazing rings on every finger (yeah because that would look super cool). 
Definitely going to repurchase from JWLRY, kept going back to the site and pondering on whether or not to just buy them or not, SO glad I did :-)
I was in LUSH this morning and a lady even interrupted the lady serving me to ask where my rings were from (the ones I wore today are shown in the first picture). Proud moment I must say.
In some ways I love when people stop me to ask where something I'm wearing is from, it can be quite flattering, somebody is H&M also asked me where my necklace was from (good day today), its from Topshop and its only £3.50 in the sale... yes please! (I dont have a link as its sold out on the website) 
I was planning on doing an outfit post too but my camera failed me and its battery died (another reason to speak to Santa) and when I got home I had to do some serious cleaning as I have been really lazy since I handed in my dissertation, its my holiday time as far as I'm concerned but we do have people coming to view our flat tomorrow so, needs must. 
Possibly going to the cinema tonight to see salmon fishing on the Yemen I'm sure that is what its called? so I will try and get my camera going for that.


Over the next few weeks there will probably be a lot of font, signature and general changes of the blog as we settle ourselves into doing it regularly, and getting into the swing of the bloggers world.
