January is dismal is it summer yet.....?????

I like the majority of the world absolutely hate January, it's a god awful month that's cold dull as nobody goes out and to add to that the incredible lack of money from buying christmas gifts, enjoying the festive season and grabbing sale bargains

So today i have decided to pretend that it's summer outside, so I am wearing a summery outfit and wishing away the winter months, I feel this is acceptable I mean sandals have arrived in Topshop this week!

Peace, love and sunshine

Lady in Red

For years I have wanted a red dress, now not a dress but you can imagine my excitement when I saw this goreous jumpsuit in Topshop marked down from £85 to £30, the minute I saw I had my heart set on this outfit for New Years Eve I styled it up with Chanel clip on earrings and my goreous Topshop Luxe shoes with velvet quilting and studds and loved my look.......up until we were in the first bar and the zipper got caught after I had been to the toilet, it wouldn't go up it wouldn't go down, panic struck I was stuck...for the rest of the night and it was only 9.25pm I had to make it til midnight without going to the toilet, so minimum drinks for me! It was awful worse thing ever, luckily the sleeve detail meant the stuck zipper was hidden so it wasn't noticable but the fact that I was home earlier than I'd have liked to be and had to be cut out of it meant it put a downer on my night, most of all though I am gutted I can't wear it again, I was hoping to rock with a 70s inspired headband in the summer but it is completely ruined now....So I was lady in red for one night only and the search for the perfect red outfit is still on....... Happy New Year Everyone hope your outfits were better than mine Peace, love & happiness throughout 2012 Sophs xoxo

I can see the new year....

So having recently been to see New Years Eve...and although I wish I could spend my NYE trapped in a lift with Ashton Kutcher I need to embrace the real world and decide what I am actually gonna do. But I thought I would take the time to evaluate last years resolutions. So at the start of 2011 I wanted to... 1) Be better with money - definete fail................well this needs carrying over to next year!!! By the end of 2012 I will have paid off my credit card & cut it up!!! And hopefully my overdraft too...........in which case I need to eBay like a pro or get a better paid job as otherwise this is not gonna happen again! I like to think positive though, I've had one of the best years of my life if not the best, because of the AMAZING friends (you know who you are) I have and awesome nights out I have had and met some fab people along the way, let's not forget some of the fierce outfits I have rocked also!!!! 2) Go on sun holiday - EPIC FAIL!!!!!!!! This is also carried over to next year because I NEEEEEEEEEED a vacation!!!! And Jessica Walton if you are reading this I want you there!! Can we go to somewhere sunny please, if we don't go out for the entire of January will we save money to go to Ibiza, napa, Marbs or even somewhere tropical like Mexico or Thailand?????? If I don't go on holiday next year I will mostly be wearing this tee
3) Look beaut on this sun holiday - well I haven't been on a sun holiday but I feel like I look probably the most beaut I have ever looked at the moment, I'm basing this on the fact that the size 10 Topshop Boutique sale shorts I purchased in the boxing day sales last year now fit me.....I'm basing this on the fact that I would rather spend money on shoes than food...so my new years resolution for 2012 is not to get fat again, infact the skinnier I get the better...I 100% want to look the BEST I have ever looked in 2012 so if you see me eating crap please tell me not too....I feel it's gonna be hard in January to not stay in and eat comfort food but I am gonna be on this more than ever!!! 4) Never stop searching or believing in Chanel - this does not need explaining & for the record I still j'adore Chanel and fingers crossed I will be purchasing something new very soon. I may think of some more resolutions to add this year but not 100% sure what yet, any ideas would be appreciated but I feel like I have most things covered. As I am feeling nostalgic of 2011 I thought I would upload some of my favourite pictures from the year....I have loved 2011 & hopefully 2012 will be just as good!
Peace, Love & New Years Resolutions Sophs xoxo

Oh My God -Shoes!!!!

Officially obsessed with buying shoes -FACT! So last year I Christmas shopped in New York, this year I went to York -it's not the same, but enjoyed feeling Christmassy walkin through the markets all wrapped up rocking my faux fur russian hat. After trying on numerous clothes I once again ended up buying not only a pair of shoes but yes you guessed it another pair of wedges -whoops!!!! These shoes are to die for....the gorgeous black quilted velvet and gold studded detail is beyond amazing and I cannot wait to wear them!!
I did however reign in the shoe buying long enough to become a little bit smitten with a grey baggy sequin jumper in the window of Zara, which was beyond amazing but when I couldn't see it in the shop and asked a sales advisor who was completely clueless but went and found out and it was in the window but not available to buy until today! Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh what the actual F who does that???????????????? Look at this gorgeous jumper we are luring you into the store for but wait, stop, halt - no you can't buy it until tomorrow - well obviously I was only visiting York for the day and cannot go back to purchase today - I have looked online and cannot see it but just 100% gutted as it was gorg!!!!! However on the plus side I fell in love with a gorgeous skirt which is short at the front and maxi at the back which I cannot wait to wear with my new shoes.....it's gonna look a treat.
Peace, love & shoe buying wishes Sophs xoxo
