I've been a busy bee in Manchester, working in the week and flat hunting in the evenings and at weekends. I've been scouring Didsbury for an affordable pad and still had no luck. All I want is a nice room in a friendly house near a tram stop, but even that appears to be too much to ask.

Although I didn't find a flat, I did find this amazing dress in the depths of Didsbury's Oxfam. A hard to find Andy Warhol print Pepe Jeans release, the gathered front hides my belly whilst the print and gorgeous fabric give this piece the wow factor. 

I've teamed the dress with these incredible tights the lovely Scarlett gifted me from Divine Hoisery. Stockists of the finest tights, hold ups and leggings, I'll be showcasing a whole range of their pieces, which are so stylish and fantastic for the coming winter months. These amazing Pretty Cosmic tights are decorated with gorgeous gems, which help to lift even the darkest outfit. Although I'm not normally one for sparkles, I thought I'd try something new with these beauties. The workday has definitely brightened up with these on my legs. I'll be wearing them all winter through. 

Although it's wild, I love this look and will definitely be testing the waters with it, once I've moved into Manchester! 

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

Happy Sunday! Here's a long awaited outfit post for you as I've been desperate to share my latest purchase, this gorgeous velvet collared dress which I found on Ebay! The dress, priced at under £20 (including delivery), is such a bargain for Christmas. 

The only thing I'd warn future buyers of is that, in my case, the dress is generously sized - I originally bought a size 12 and it was too big for me, after swapping it for a size 10 (thank you to the lovely sellers) I've had to alter the dress slightly around the waist! I have to say though, it was really nice to find a company who actually cut sizes properly, instead of charging through the roof for clothes which used tiny amounts of material! 

The gorgeous wine colour of this beauty and unique style makes it suitable for Christmas dinner but also for clubbing - it'll keep me toasty warm during the winter months and through Jan and Feb! 

These tights were such a bargain, I found them in a Lancaster Charity shop, unopened and priced at £2 - I love them as the add a little bit of 50's glamour to any outfit!   

What are you wearing for Christmas? Any special plans for your big day?

Love ya!
