New things..

So some advantages of volunteering in a charity shop is that I'm able to find some amazing bargains.

I was able to get this  red clutch bag with the gold clasp for 99p. I really love it as will be perfect for evenings and nights out clubbing.

This is the second great bargain I was able to get.  This bag was also 99p. I really loved the detailing of the fabric on the front. I think this bag would be perfect for a night out or even in the day for any occasion. 


I discovered after I bought it, that its actually made by Suzi Smith London. Which made it an even bettter bargain!!!!

My final bargain soo far  this week, is this suede ankle boots for only £2.99. There in perfect in condition and very comfortable...  well ish!!

Harry Potter premiere

So.... I'm a bit of a keen Harry Potter fan. And I went to see Potter last night. At Vue, they played the first film and then the second film at Midnight!! Yay!! I thought that it was a good film however, it wasn't that close to the book but it was very funny and packed with lots of action!!

what do you think??

I also watched the premiere, so I could see what the stars wore. So I thought I would share a few of my favourites.

My favourite dress is worn by Bonnie Wright (above) She wore a clad in a long peach dress featuring ruffled blouse and silk skirt by Miu Miu. She worn statement bold earrings and rings with a perfect half up and half down hairstyle and picture perfect makeup.

Emma Watson wore a  Oscar de la Renta gown that had a beautifully embroidered bodice, and to finish the outfit she wore Boodles Jewellery. 

Helena Bonham Carter wore an amazing dark green gown with a bright pink fascinator, which is frivolously amazing and she even wore her trademark shades because she is clearly fabulous!

visual merchandising!!

So in my spare time when I haven't been working at Waitrose, I've been volunteering as a visual merchandiser at my local Oxfam in Northampton. As it was the book festival I decided to make a dress out of book pages to help decorate the window. This week its been moved to the entrance to greet people when you walk in. 

My manger liked it so much that he showed his boss and she sent it to our local paper.. Soo im hoping to see it in the paper hopefully. Great publicity for the shop and the book festival.

Also, the marketing director of the Midlands division wants to speak to me on Monday, so im excited for some new opportunities. 

bye bye loan, hello overdraft!!

These are my new dresses, I bought from ASOS for my next few nights outs. They are both £45.00s each.The top dress is my favourite and ill be wearing to formal summer ball occasion  that my work (waitrose) is hosting, Excited to wear it!! 

Vibrant pop art shoot!!
