Bodycon Birthday!

Just bought the dress to wear out for my 23rd birthday...only 8 weeks early! And I'm not the sort of person to wish time away, but it does give me plenty of time to find the perrrfect shoes...any suggestions do let me know, thinking a pair of nude high peep toes a la Christian Louboutin or a nice goldy peach colour...

::

So excited with my purchase!

New Look - AX Paris range - £35

My Big Sister X

My big sister did the Playtex Moon Walk on Saturday night

26.4 miles at night in her bra!

They've raised over £400 for breast cancer and I am so proud of her

Here's a picture of me with her at the start line

NB Vintage Exclusive

You may have seen my previous posts about one of my favourite style gurus Blake Lively..

Well if you're an avid GG fan like me, check out Natasha Bailie's newest import to her Vintage Wonderland - in the style of Blake Lively's partner in crime Leighton Meester (Blair Waldorf)

And for £95 we can all afford to look like her gorgeous ladyship!

I read about this jigsaw in a magazine the other day and absolutely love it - only 1000 were made - shame it is a little out of my price range at just over £500...

BEPs - Don't you just hate those?

I am loving my outfit today! Haven't yet taken a pic but will post it once I have. And the sun is shining so I am going for a swim in the outdoor pool....going to freeze my ass off!

::

Bought 2 lovely bits from French Connection yesterday...a hot denim skirt in bright blue - a good holiday find by my sister! And a top that is similar to the blake lively pic I posted a few weeks back, except with short sleeves - could be long enough to wear as a dress too! So exciting!

::

Also bought some new trainers as mine have had it...what I like to call a BEP - boring yet essential purchase (don't you just hate those??) - but they are pink & grey so I will let myself off!

This is me x

xx That's me! xx
The idea behind Love-Wardrobe comes from a new years resolution my sister Roisin proposed for 2009:
To take a picture of my outfit every day
Purely because I'm obsessed with clothes and how people put their outifts together - I'm a big fan of the effortless look, although I think I try to hard to obtain it myself!
I love to see other people's 'effortless' outfits and welcome comments on mine...
