Sequins and Pearls.




Top: H&M Dress: Zara Necklace: who knows... Brooch: Antique shop in Hastings
I bought this dress in a green/black in the Zara sale for what I thought was a tenner...turned out to be £8, score! I've worn it out twice already so when I saw the silver version for, wait for it....£6 (!) I bought that too. I'm not sure I will ever wear it on its own as its a bit too in- your- face shiney for my own brand of styling but I will definitely wear it in ways such as this.
The shoes are so painful atm. I've taken to wearing them round the house to soften them up. They look hot with my pj bottoms.

seriously lovely song:

Cross To Bear...

I went on a bit of a work- avoiding trip to Meadowhall in Sheffield yesterday...it is actually pretty good.
Anyway amongst the purchases I....purchased, I got these rather large beauties. I love them!! I don't usually buy massive earrings but as soon as I saw these they were already mine...
The only problem is that they are ridiculously heavy and got a little painful after a while. Easily cured by a couple of sambucca shots.

You Used To Hold me...

This is too fancy to be stuck in my wardrobe.
I bought it in December and it was the last one...in my size...for less than half price.
Naturally I bought it (who wouldn't with those coincidental forces at work?)
Now, however, I need to find somewhere to wear it. The clubs I usually find myself in don't really call for this kind of attire... so I guess I'll have to find one where it is called for...
Life is hard non?

Turkey Treasures...

I thought as I have been to Turkey a few times this year and have bought a few interesting things that I would share them with you...
I get so overwhelmed by all the great things there are to buy and if I'm quite honest I have my mind focused elsewhere when I'm there so shopping doesn't feature too heavily in my travels there.
So anyway here are most of my finds...

These were given to me by my bf's sister- in- law...I love them they're so so comfy!
These were from the roads around Taxim and Eminunu...
This is a really cool little jewellery box I bought from Kuzuluk...it was about £4 and its perfect for all of my rings...


Top to bottom: pinched from my bf, bought from the Grand Bazaar, gift from my bf's brother...and the scarf was a gift from my bf's mum:)
I really like to buy little trinkets from places I go to and I have a feeling I will be buying much more on future trips to Turkey:)...
p.s. Got a new camera!!
