Todays outfit: See By Chloe
May 5th, 2010 | 
Author: I was ambling in TK Max one weekend, and spotted a brightly coloured sleeve. Immediately I knew it was special, but I had no idea it would be See by Chloe. And for only £40. I snatched it from the rail and carried it around, clutched to my chest, and texted Mr Heels excitedly to boast about my find. Its acutally a size 10, when I really could do with an 8 due to the loose fit, but I’m not worried, cos I have See by Chloe!!
I have belted it with my dressing gown tie, and wore knee high Schuh boots and black leggings, and a green cardi cos its still not summer. Boo. But I have my nails painted bright yellow, which is a surprisingly decent varnish from Asda!

Where DID you get that dress?
Your friends will be shocked if you tell them where you bought any of these beauties!
I wanted to do a budget dress post, but choosing dresses that look far more expensive, and do not give away the secrets of the mainstream highstreet shops that they are from. Asda, Tesco, Matalan, your friends will never believe that you have managed to out-shine them in a £14 dress!
And of course, buying a cheap dress leaves you more money to buy shoes! Its Win-Win!
I have to point out also, that none of the dresses shown are on sale, the >£30 is full price. They may well go in a sale soon, or there may be discounts available. Honestly, it would be rude not to buy one. Or two. Maybe just three……
Dustland Fairytale
Once upon a time, there was a beautiful Princess, who we will call Emma. Princess Emma lived in a small castle, but she still liked to dress in her fancy jewels and clothes. But there was something missing. Something leather, and high heeled, and stamped with Jimmy Choo on the sole.
She pined for Jimmy Choo for so long, until one day, Prince Charming rode into court with a box. She could smell the leather for miles.
Inside the box was these.
Princess Emma was over the moon! She had finally got the one thing she had craved for so many years. But alas, it was not to be. Although Jimmy Choo was beautiful, and buttery and soft, he was just too tall for our pretty Princess, and he rubbed the back of her knee. She tried to get used to him, but she could not. And as Jimmy is such a handsome chap, it was a sin to keep him cooped up in the castle, never to be seen.
So he got sold on Ebay, thankfully for a profit.
Princess Emma still dreams of that week her and Jimmy spent together, and she peers out from her tower, hoping to catch a glimpse of him, or his shorter younger brother some day.
Le sigh.
Lets go scuba diving
I’m speechless.
But I would totally wear these scuba diving!!
I’m Late!
Well, I wont be late any more when I get this beauty through my letterbox!
Just like the White Rabbit in Alice In Wonderland, I have just bought myself a pocket watch, from one of my most favourite websites in the whole world, Love Hearts and Crosses! I was very lucky to get one, as both the gold and silver all all sold out! It was a bargain at £18.
Did You Hear That??
Did you hear that noise? It was the sound of my heart breaking.
Jimmy Choo have decided with H&M that Northern Ireland stores are not going to stock one, if not THE most eagerly awaited designer high street collaborations of all time. The Jimmy Choo @ H&M shoe and clothing range.
GUTTED doesn’t come near.

And again from Accessorize a fabulous necklace £14

You Can’t Catch Me…..
…I’m the GingerBread Man!!
Anyone who knows me is about to become very bored with that nursery rhyme, because I bought this.
Its a watch! A real one! I havent thought of a name yet, but you are all invited to the Christening. I am feeling that its a boy, despite the pink bow tie. I love him, so kitsch and cute.
He came from one of my favourite websites, Love Hearts and Crosses. They have free post and packing this week with the code FREEPP. I couldnt let an opportunity like that go amiss. And neither should you!
