Glitter...not the Mariah Carey kind

I love these...I found either the same or a similar pair a few weeks ago in a magazine (obviously can't remember which one now...TYPICAL!!!) but these beauts are £90 from Schuh and I love them for adding an edge to a simpler dress......<3 The Pair I found originally were £80 in the mag but you know mags, they are always wrong! I will keep searching!!!! Im pretty sure the pair I found had more of a green hue?

Its my birthday soon...

Its my birthday and i'll whine (as in dance) if I want to!

Finding a dress, or outfit of any kind these days is almost impossible for me, they are always too "samey" or cheap looking or way way WAY out of budget...yes, I do dream of one day owning something in Vogue, I'm talking multiple digits when I say out of budget!!! What can I say I'm fussy!!!

So for the past year or so I hav made of ALOT of my going out ensembles, or customised a classic little number...there is nothing better than when someone says;

"I love your ----- , where did you get it?"

Anywho, back to my original trail of thought, its my birthday soon and I have planned (and started) making a skirt to go with  my "old faithful" black top....great on the budget front and if all goes well it will look good...(fingers crossed) see what you can make out!

Get your needle out...in the best possible sense :s

A few of my customisations or complete creations...I'm no Chanel seamstress but I'll give it a go!ha ;)

One of my favourite dress ever! - was a long vintage dress with a flared hem, cut and sewn and boobtube added and wall-ah! LOVE!

A complete stich-up...it took me two attempts to make this...any-who no piccys of me in it, just one of my backside at Faraz's at the end of the night which I guessed no-one would like to see!!!haha

Not really too much of my creation, the cape I'm wearing is an A-mazing vintage petitcoat but has the smallest arms you will ever see, so I temporarily converted it into a cape for a wedding, instant coverage to remain demure!ha

Rihanna got me dreaming of colour blocking the day she rocked the pink crop and orange troos, another instance when I could'nt find what I wanted in the shops, so I literally wore fabric! Works for me....(Well, hopefully : s)

An oldie...a couple New Years back I went shopping with my friend Jenna to Cow, and found a really gordy dress, and here's me wearing it!!!haha With the help of my mom, we changed the skirt to angular shape rather the stiff floppy mess it was before and turned it from 80's trash to a piece I loved, not many would but thats my style all over, its marmite....

An classic white dress from ASOS I couldn't resist studding down the back, a copy from a black dress I did earlier last year...Don't mind the pics, my face looks awful!

A dress I customised for the stall but doesn't look great on me...candy colours creep up the back of the dress and back down the right arm....perfect for this seasons candy trends!

Love...

Take a glance at the Elie Saab perfume ad campaign, imfamous for her couture gowns perfect for the red carpet and any other glitterati occasion or in my case general housework, lounging round the house, and a trip to Nandos(I wish!!!)....this gown has got me lusting for A) an event worthy of its attendance & B) the money to afford such a beautiful item...the neckline and thigh scraping split is goddess-like <3

Enjoy
