Been away from the land of blogging for a couple days, but in those days I've accumulated a couple things! Firstly, in the winter months I am starting to feel pretty pale so I have stocked up on some tanning materials! St Moriz is just awesome, easy application, no streaks, nice colour & cheap!! I have used it for years. A self tan mitt to avoid orange palms & I decided to try a 'body polishing sponge' as apposed to exfoliating gloves as I hate wearing those things anyways. I wanted a 'body mist' of some sort, something that I felt would freshen me up rather than a spray, so I got this one by Soap & Glory. Its got a lovely scent & does exactly what I wanted it to! Its handbag size & has pretty packaging.

It's uniform time in work (which means free things yay!) so I decided to get this Crafted Handknit jumper, it's not as frumpy as it looks in this picture (these where taken in such a rush), it's comfy & slightly dipped at the back. I think it was a wise choice as it gets freezing in the shop! The second picture is my current nails which I will post on also! 

I picked up a couple new belts & mine are falling apart! I got this simple studded belt from Primark & stumbled across this exact Urban Outfitters copy 5 Cross Belt in a random shop in Rhyl at £10 it's £8 cheaper than the UO version, pleased!

I got this plain marl skater dress last week, it's just a perfect edition to my wardrobe. I've been after one for a while from Topshop but they where always sold out when I looked, so when this came into work I snapped it up! Its so plain but looks so good on, dressed up or down. 

Two items crossed off my wishlist! I got this PU Pleated skirt on my uniform too, yay! & this Glamorous beehive jumper is not my usual choice of colour, but I love it. Its big without being downing, comfy, warm & looks amazing with a shirt underneath!

FINALLY! I got some winter boots! I chose these ones from my work, after searching high & low everywhere else these babies came in & I love them! They don't make your feet look huge like some boots (I tried some size 5s in Topshop that made my feet look like boats!). They're comfy & the heel doesn't feel like a heel at all. I can't wait to get my wear out of them! I totally forgot to take my own picture of these so an internet one will have to do! Hope you enjoyed!

Vampy.

So last minute Halloween preparations are in place, I thought I would be working at 9am the day after but I actually don't need to be in until 11! This calls for a celebration (of the undead)! I've decided I want to do something vampy! I have the Crafted mullet skirt from a few months back, I think it's perfect for that vampy cape look! Paired with my spiked JC's & a Miso mesh body I think it could look awesome! The mesh body is on sale in Republic, may pick one up tomorrow but if not I'm going to wear a cropped burgundy tank from Topshop with a spiked necklace. I bought 'Wicked' from the Dark Side Of Nude collection today, I have yet to try it but I imagen it will be perfect! I just need to pick up some cheap fangs/contacts & I will be set! 

Anyone else dressing up? :)
