Cross boots and Marc B tote

Oh how I hate taking outfit photos inside.  Rather excitingly however I have now finished work for Christmas and don’t go back until the 2nd so my days will be filled with daylight rather than driving to work in the dark and driving home in the dark.  I’m sure Tom will be thrilled that this means an increase in shivering in the road outside our house and taking photos in the street whilst drivers look on curiously.

Spike cross boots

This was the outfit I originally put on to go to our Book Club dinner on Monday.  Not long after getting dressed however I said I would take designated driver duties so it was impossible to wear my amazing new boots and I switched to some flat shoes that were a little more car pedal friendly.

Much more sensible! I bought this top with a voucher kindly given to me by Zalando.  They gave me a £30 voucher and I managed to get two peplum tops with it which I was quite excited about (this is the other).  Although I’m slowly bringing dresses back into my life I do really like peplums or other dressy tops as I think they’re perfect with jeans for a dinner out or when you want to look a bit smarter.  The bag was kindly sent to me by Marc B and I absolutely love it.  The details are gorgeous, from the ostrich panels to the leopard print lining and signature Marc B gold heart.  It feels really well made and it’s definitely going to be a favourite of mine from now on.

Our book club meal was amazing by the way, I had a steak, chicken and prawn combo and New York cheesecake, what a dream! Our next book to read is The Slap, has anyone read it?

I am currently sat in my pajamas with one pajama trouser rolled up as I got my foot and a section of my shin tattooed today and it is very, very sore! Tonight will mostly be spent with my feet up catching up on Monday’s Made In Chelsea.  Hope you’ve all had lovely Wednesdays and get to finish work for Christmas soon! I used to work in retail and had a few years of only having Christmas Day off so I am thoroughly enjoying having a proper break this year.
