The Rabbit and The Wolf

Dress - Threads 

Jacket - TU 

Bag - H! By Henry Holland 

Boots - Topshop 

Necklace - H&M 

This is what I wore for a night out for a 21st birthday. I found this dress on sale rail in Debenhams naturally being drawn in by the collar. I've never heard of the brand Threads before nor can I find any information about them. It makes me wonder if it had been abandoned in the back for awhile and now the brand doesn't exist which is a real shame because the I love everything about this dress. Surprisingly I found the jacket in Sainsburys for half price, I wasn't even in the market for a new leather (well, PU leather) jacket made me realise how battered the one I've been wearing since I was 18 was. I had been on the hunt for some more casual heels when I came across these boots, again on sale, even though they don't have much of a heel the platform adds that extra bit of height I was after. Now that I think about it the only full price item was the necklace, at £3.99 it wasn't exactly breaking the bank.

Cardigan - New Look 

I wore this out to a night out but recreated what I wore a few days later as didn't have time to take photos before. I first found the top version of this dress. It had added cap sleeves and a collar, sadly the fit was odd due to where the sleeves finished. Said times. Then I found this dress in the sale some weeks later, I tried it on and it looked nice but I didn't think it was worth the £20 tag, when it isn't a dress you could get away with in daytime and it's short length, back it went on the rails. Another few weeks went by and I came across the dress again but it was now £12 I tried it back on and had was wearing tights this time and it looked much better although the lower price most likely swayed me on that one! I do wish it had the collar like the top did but you can't have everything.

Necklace - Dorothy Perkins

Bag & Ring - Accessorize 

Shoes - Schuh 

I was looking for a necklace to go with this dress one that wouldn't catch on the fine lace, a problem I've experienced before and nearly ruined a dress. It added a little sparkle to the dress and it doesn't seem to show up on the photos. It pains me to pay full price for jewellery these days, by luck this had 20% off. I need to find more excuses to wear these shoes. I've became a heel wimp as I hate to have sore feet and it makes me very grumpy when I do so if I know there will be a walk longer than five minutes then I'll opt for wearing flatter shoes. 

Who else is a wimp when it comes to heels?

Boots - Matalan 

Bag - Aldo  

The eternal struggle continues of trying to take decent outfit photos inside only using household lamps and editing. I can't wait until it gets darker later in the evenings instead of 3pm when it's raining. I've been on the hunt for a tartan dress for awhile but when i find any there are always sold out in my size. This dress was another recent sale find that i had my eye on for a while. It is probably more on the checkered side than tartan but for now it fills the void. It's a loose fit smock and is very light but that just means I can wear it in summer too. The bag was a Christmas present and thought I should include as it is my everyday bag. It's got so much room inside and lots of compartments.

Necklace - HearHoofbeatsThinkZebras 

How amazing is this necklace?! I love Disney's Up! I even have a toy Dug :) He's a talking retriever how could I not love him. Back in October I went to Belfast for the weekend to see one my favourite bands The Answer. I've been following to various cities since 2006. I'm seeing them again in Edinburgh next week on their new tour. I knew that I had to go to the St George's Market on the Sunday to get one of Claire's amazing cupcakes that I see all over my Instagram each week. It was the first time I've ever met anyone from a blog that I read. I was nervous and when get even more shy but she is very lovely and friendly. The cupcake I had was amazing! I didn't get a box (or five) only because I had too much to carry already and I knew I would be bored on my travels back home later that day and gobble them all. Anyway, when looking up what else was at the market I found HearHoofbeatsThinkZebras and when I saw this necklace I HAD to have one! I also got a grape soda badge necklace too.
