Gotta say I'm loving a bit of leopard at the moment. I know dalmation print is supposedly "the cool new thing" but I'd rather stick with a classic. I know if I were to buy something dalmation print I'll probably want rid of it a few months later. I got this top from New Look a few weeks ago and I'm tempted to buy some more leopard based items. I'd love to get this shirt from Topshop which is basically a long sleeve version of the one I'm wearing. New Look do a similar version but the Topshop one looks loads nicer to me. Don't know about anyone else but it kinda reminds me of something Richard O'Brien would've worn on The Crystal Maze, which totes makes me want it more haha. Today I saw the most amazing faux fur leopard print coat in New Look, its not on the website yet but its basically my dream winter coat. I'll probably end up buying both of these when I next go shopping. I know its such a cliche thing for girls to say but right now I feel like I have nothing to wear. I think its because its getting colder and my past winter wardrobe mainly consists of things that really aren't my style anymore. I've decided I hate pretty much everything in my wardrobe and its time to sell it all. I'll be setting up a blogshop shortly for you all to peruse. One question: is selling old shoes disgusting/weird? I have so many heels that I've never worn so thats not too gross in my opinion but I'm not sure if its a done thing.

Standing In The Dark
Things just got really exciting... my blog has been shortlisted for the Cosmopolitan Blog Awards 2011! First things first, I want to say a mahoosive thank you to everyone who took the time to nominate me. I never asked for a single nomination so the fact that some of you like my blog enough to do so really does mean the world to me. It was a complete shock when people started tweeting me the other night to congratulate me & it makes me so happy to know that people enjoy my inane ramblings! I must say that I feel completely out of place in the Established Beauty Blog category. I think I'm only in that category due to the amount of time I've had this blog. Some of the people I'm up against inspired me to start a blog in the first place. Plus my blog is fairly different to a lot of beauty blogs out there in that I post about a variety of topics, not just swatches & reviews of new products. So I'm most definitely not expecting to win but it would be wonderful if I got to finally meet some bloggers out of this! If you would like to vote for me please click here & enter your email address to see the full list of nominees.
I've been to a few birthday parties this week which is probs why my face is looking larger than normal (if thats even possible). I've eaten tons of cake & buffet food. It was my boyfriends birthday on Sunday so we went to Da Sandro's Italian restaurant. I didn't think much of the food really but these gorgeous profiteroles finished the meal off nicely. Andy had a steak which cost £20, not good when I'm paying the bill! Anyways this is what I wore for our meal out. I got this dress a few years ago from the muchly missed Superette shop near Brick Lane. I loved the Reko dresses they stocked so much that I bought 3 of them. Wowza, just checked their website as I'm writing this and they have some gorgeous new ones in for A/W 2011, how on earth did I forget that they exist?! I'm thinking I need to buy a new cardigan more than anything though because I do pretty much wear this American Apparel one every day of the week.

I'm Your Present
If you're a Tumblr user then chances are you've already seen these sweetheart earrings. I ordered them from I'm Your Present, an etsy store selling some wonderfully quirky handmade clothes & jewellery. These earrings come in loads of different colours but I adore the uber-cute combo of baby pink & lilac so I went for these bad boys. And I really love that Kelly included a cherry blow pop in my package, thats the sign of a true sweetheart <3.
