OOTD - The Beginning Of A Week Off!

Hey all, 

I have been given a week of 'burn-out' leave from work, as I have been under a lot of pressure lately - a common thing amongst social workers! So this morning I slept in until 11.30 and rose all bouncy and excited...until I realised I have no idea what to do with spare time! Because I am a workaholic. 

So what did I end up doing? Called the best friend and headed out for a spot of lunch, coffee and shopping. I have also planned dinner with the girls tonight, so my week of freedom is starting with a BANG! 

Here is what I wore! 

Spotted - Grumpy cat in frame, because her mother was taking pictures and not patting. 

Spot - Cat's tail, still grumpy. 

The Outfit 

Wet Leather Look Leggings from Garnis Boutique/ Knit from Garnis Boutique/ Betts Ankle Boots/ Handbag from Camden Markets/ Colette Necklace/ Lovisa Bracelet/ Pandora Bracelets and Rings 

Next picture! 

Spot - Finally, a happy cat. She has won, attention received. 

Hope you enjoyed this post, and a little insight into what a lil monster angel my baby cat is! Haha.

Have a great night! xx

The Leopard Addiction Continues

Hey all, 

I knew that when I started this blog tidbits of fashion would slip in here and there, after all, I am nearly as obsessed with fashion as I am with makeup! I think the two quite possible go hand in hand, I am sure you all agree...(any excuse will do!). 

I have been drawn to leopard print, and I mean print, definitely not fur at all (I am against all things animal cruelty). Maybe it's just animal instinct or appreciation for mother nature and all her creations, but I can't seem to turn away from anything with leopard print on it. 

I must have it all! Saying that, I picked up this gorgeous bag off eBay (oh eBay, how I love you so) for a ridiculously cheap $19.99. Yes, it did come from overseas but the quality is absolutely divine for the price! It's made well and looks sufficiently durable. Best of all, it does not look cheap at all! 

As for space, it's not going to fit the entire kitchen sink in it but it's great for those days when you aren't carrying a lot, or just want a smaller bag to complete your look. 

Long story short, I love it! It's moved straight onto my favourites shelf. 

Kudos to the new purple baby camera! It seems to be earning its keep just fine :) 

Oh, btw - while I was on my little eBay spree I also picked up a purple leopard print iPhone case & some leopard print bangles! Why not I say! 

Hope you all have a great day! xx
