Just a quick picture of my outfit that I wore to a friend's birthday party (sorry for the bad phone quality photo).

 

Dress - Topshop

Necklace - Dorothy Perkins

Tights - Primark

Shoes - Peacocks

 

Does anybody else struggle on deciding what to wear on nights out and to parties in this weather?  It's not like summer, where you can just pull on a dress, stick on some heels and you're ready to go.  No, you have to take into consideration how long you have to brace the freezing cold air as you go from bar to bar and how you're going to keep youself warm during those moments.  The simple answer to this would be to wear a coat, but then you're spending all night taking it on and off or worrying about putting it down somewhere and forgetting it in a drunken state.  It's just a hassle. 

 

What are your tips for keeping warm on a night out during these winter months?

 

I also seem to have a bit of a shopping problem at the moment.  I got these few things a couple of weeks ago but have only just got around to posting them.  I am afraid to admit that I have been on two more little shopping trips since then and treated myself to a few more bits.  I definitely need more self control when it comes to shopping.  I have decided though, that I will not buy anything else throughout the whole of December unless it is a Christmas gift for somebody else... I just hope that I have enough willpower or my poor friends and family will be getting a lump of coal for christmas.

 



Am I the only one that thinks it seems a bit too early to be celebrating Christmas?  I went shopping today (and got the gorgeous Matalan kimono from my last post) and they were playing christmas songs the whole time.  Now I'm no bah humbug but it's not even December yet and there are Christmas songs and decorations everywhere!  I just feel like it's too soon and that I'll be fed up of them by the time Christmas gets here.

 

Anyway the main purpose of this post was to show you my new blouse from George.  I love the colour and the nice little £14 price tag.  What do you think?

 



Yes, I'm sorry, yet another apology for being such a rubbish blogger.  I was determined last week to get back on track and had several posts prepared, then for some reason I was unable to upload images.  Hopefully all is fine now and I can get back to blogging more regularly.  You'd think with it being a week exactly since I last posted that I'd have something more exciting to share but I'm afraid not.  Cold days and dark nights make Sadie a dull girl.  Winter is definitely not my season.

So I just have a little outfit post to share with you today featuring one of my new jumpers from my last post and my navy disco pants, which I haven't worn in a while...

I've been on a little bit of a shopping splurge for the past couple of weeks seeing as the temperature seems to have dropped drastically and I noticed that none of my clothes appeared to have sleeves.  So with the intention of buying myself a nice new winter wardrobe I went on a little shopping spree and was mostly successful.  I did get a little sidetracked by a few things though that were more pretty than practical.

 



 

This is the reason that I don't have a credit card!  I have just spent an imaginary fortune at Zara.  These are just a few pieces of my favourites from their winter collection.  After lusting after much of their summer collection, I can see that I'm going to be no different with their winter collection.  Their collection channels many of my favourite trends and I can already tell that I will be spending a lot of this season in black, leather, lace and oxblood.  These are just a few pieces of my favourites from their winter collection.  It's a good job that Christmas seems to be quickly creeping upon us because I can see a few of these going on my Christmas list.

 

What are you loving most from Zara's winter collection?
