Wow, it feels like forever since I last did a post.  I hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year.  I did plan to do this post just after the New Year but things have been a little hectic to say the least.  On New Year's Day I took a little three day break to Liverpool, a city I've never visited before, unfortunately I didn't get the chance to do much shopping but had a great time none the less.  We also went to Chester Zoo where I saw this adorable baby elephant and wanted to bring it home...

 



Since I got back from this little trip I have been trying to shake the dreaded winter flu, and the last week has consisted of trips backwards and forwards to the hospital to visit my dad who has also been quite ill.  He's doing a lot better now though and was released from hospital yesterday, so I am taking this opportunity to write this little update and catch up on all of your lovely blogs to see what you have been up to over Christmas.  Here are just a few pictures from the last few weeks that I haven't been able to post...

 

Christmas Tree cupcakes that I made for the Christmas Fair.

Dress - Matalan

Unfortunately I don't have a whole outfit picture of this dress, but I wore it for a meal with my friends on Christmas Eve.  It's such a lovely fit and so flattering, and even better it's in the sale for £5! Just click the link above to see it fully on the Matalan website.

Dress - Vintage Vixen

I got this gorgeous cream vintage lace dress from the fashion show I featured in my last post and wore it on Christmas Day.



These last two pictures are from a house party I went to on New Year's Eve, where I wore a couple of the sale bargains I got after Christmas.  The dress was £7 from New Look and the belt is from Asos but is sold out now.

Hopefully now things are getting back to normal I'll be able to start posting more regularly again because I have lots of sale shopping to share with you all.

Happy New Year!

I recently went to a fashion show organised by a local vintage store to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support, a charity which is close to my heart after we lost my Grandad to cancer and we were given a lot of support and help from the Macmillan nurses during his last few months.  Upon arrival we were given a glass of wine and a goody bag filled with lots of yummy retro sweets.  Unfortunately, being the useless blogger that I am, I was too busy enjoying the show and the free wine that I didn't take very many pictures and the ones that I did take did not come out very well.  Thankfully Vintage Vixen had their own photographer there who took some great photos, so all credit for these pictures go to them...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I did manage to get a quick picture of my outfit on my phone before I left for the show though...
