I'm pretty infatuated with this colour right now. I seem to keep buying maroon coloured clothes for some reason. Makes a change from all the black I normally wear so I guess its a good thing. I got this dress from New Look when they had 20% off. Its a lot easier to justify buying new clothes when theres a discount involved! I caved and bought one of those heart collar brooches from Fairytales & Hidden Notes that everyone seems to have. I don't think it works that well with this dress because the collar is flimsy so the hearts kept on turning around. It'd be much better with a stiff collared shirt. I've had these shoes for a few years now but never really wear them. All my flat Primark brogues have fallen to bits so I dug these out instead. They're really comfy to walk in even though they've got quite a big heel. Its nice being fairly tall for once!
I wore this yesterday for a lunch date with Andy. He's been working really hard lately because hes a retail manager so has been in on all his days off. He bought me lunch in Varsity as a nicey treat. We used to go there all the time and eat those huge buckets of chicken strips & curly fries. I had a Dirty Hot Dog which is a footlong hot dog covered in chilli, jalapeños & mustard, it was seriously good. Speaking of food I'm obsessed with this new iPhone app I got called Foodspotting. You basically upload pictures of food you're eating, tag where its from and then people can award it 'noms' if they like it.
After lunch I finished off my Christmas shopping and bought loads of wrapping paper & cards. Think I'm gonna spend the rest of today wrapping all the presents. I've not even put up any Christmas decorations yet! God knows when I'm gonna have time. I thought I was being really organised this year by getting all the presents bought ahead of schedule but obvs I was not. Oh dear...
