Vogue and Chanel

My two loves combined xoxo

New Year's Eve, excited much

New Years Eve by shopaholic_soph featuring goldtone jewelry

I'm excited for New Year's Eve, but everyone I seems to dislike it, I think that might be because they don't plan it enough in advance, this year I'm all about black and gold and will be rocking sequins as standard and leather shorts, obviously NYE is fancy and I like to make the effort and dress up but think more club than class this year!! I can't wait to dance and party............I am however dreading New Years Day as I will be working, I'm dubious about this as believe it's gonna be empty, surely people won't be shopping!

Peace, love xoxo

Been away for a while...

Ok so not updated my blog in like forever! I went to New York and New York City suits me, I love it too much and need to move there, I was even more fabulous in New York than I am in England.

Since being back I have obviously been the most skint that I have in my life, I resisted Chanel as too poor but bought a gorgeous patent Tory Burch purse and treated myself to the Balenciaga perfume as well as buying the one Christmas present that I have still only bought.............9 days until Christmas and I cannot finish my Christmas shopping until the 23rd -whoops!!!

There are just so many things to pay for these days that are not as exciting as things I used to spend my money on, lets face it rent, electric and phone bills are a necessity but why can't I have money left at the end of the month to treat myself on a new pair of shoes or a dress??? 2011 is gonna be the year that I clear my overdraft so that I can actually once again treat myself for real. It's gonna be long, it's gonna be hard but it needs to be done, and until then I will continue with selling my life on eBay each month, with the occasional treat as well as my new making money scheme of online bingo. I believe online bingo is the future, I say this only winnning £28 but this is £28 I wouldn't have if I didn't sign up to online bingo and claim my free £2 sign up bonus. - So I have now taken upon myself to join other online bingo websites and wait for them to credit my account with a £1 or £2 bonus which I will hopefully turn into more than that -fingers crossed and I will keep you posted. If my plan is successful this time next year I will have some Chanel jewellery, obviously vintage and probably Susan Caplan vintage.

We can all dream anyway.

Peace, love xoxo

Forget Snow Queen I wanna be an Ice Princess

snow queen, ice princess by shopaholic_soph featuring chanel jewelry

The ice cold has inspired me and as the Snow Queen look is a big trend for Christmas, think mint, creams and nudes - I will be rocking the Ice Princess look with copious amounts of feathers and heirloom jewels, this is the perfect dressy look and a.maze.ing way to avoid being stuck in black! We all know I love a cape and I can't wait to rock a feathered one.....look out it will be soon!

Snow flakes and wishes

Feels like I'm in an office...........

So it's been far too long since I updated my blog, sorry! I have had possibly the worlds worst computer, a laptop that freezes and switches off, makes fuzzy black and white lines accross the screen and has been sent for repair twice. I'm currently in an office set up but can access the internet - THANK GOD! I have a laptop borrowed from my brother with a broken screen so it is connected to an oldschool monitor, I feel very office like sat at the dining room table of my flat typing!

So many things have happened since I last updated, I now have my very own jewellery line -East 73rd Street with Jess, please follow us on Facebook and Twitter, making jewellery is so much fun and I am really pleased with the outcome of the items, but being so busy making it, hopefully by the end of this week our website will be fully finished and we can launch it officially. We have already sold a few items off our facebook group which I am extremely excited about. We are still waiting for our business cards to arrive though and then it will feel even more official.

In exactly one months time I will be in New York, which I am so excited for and cannot actually wait, hopefully I will make some spending money by selling my life on eBay but currently shopping funds are not looking good -thank god I have learned to appreciate the beauty of window shopping!

Peace, <3 xoxo

arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

It's been a while since I have updated and there are many reasons for this which I am going to vent now!!!

My laptop never effing works!!! I don't know what is wrong with it, I turn it on and before I have had time to update my facebook status it freezes and crashes!! I need a new one but am currently so skint it's unreal! The use of Internet and selling my possessions (all except Chanel) is how I was surviving!
So I am currently now sat in the University learning centre trying to eBay things only to find that it is taking it's absolute sweet time to upload the photos!!! All I want right now is a computer that works so I can get on with uploading my possessions to eBay but this seems to be far too much trouble!

Skint is not the word to describe what I am right now, seriously I can't even afford this months Vogue let alone food!!! I'm going to New York soon and need a passport but HSBC have now decided to start charging me £30 every time I go over my overdraft, the little nasties! This has never happened before.

I need a get rich quick scheme and at the moment scratch cards are hating on me and computers seem to not work around me when I try to eBay my posses ions so if anyone has any ideas on making fast cash then answers on a post card please!!!

P.S I have applied for bar jobs and flyering of an evening - where did my glamorous life go???
