Badly needed update!

Oh dear, look at this. Nearly a month has gone by without a blog post!

I really am useless!

However, I'm pretty good a Christmas shopping. I'm right on top of things this year. The only two presents left to buy are flowers for my Nain, which I'll buy closer to the day, and some Walnut Whips for my Dad, which are proving difficult to find. I found a pack of 8 miniature ones in Marks & Spencer for £1.49, but that feels like a very cheap present even though my Dad is adamant that he doesn't want anything.

As usual, I am also very good at taking care of myself too.

It's work's Christmas party this weekend, and I finished off my outfit with a cape from River Island and a clutch bag from New Look. Here's a handy collage;
Green dress from the ASOS sale a few months ago
Black and gold wedges from New Look (my birthday present from Nain)
Black tights I already have 
Black devore cape from River Island - expensive, but I'm going to wear it to EVERYTHING
Black/gold lattice clutch bag from New Look

I'm not one of these girls who can't bear to be seen out in the same thing time and again, so I'll be wearing this exact outfit a lot. I've already worn the dress and the wedges, although not together. After the work Christmas party, I'll wear this to my birthday dinner on the 23rd December, and no doubt it'll come out again for New Year's Eve!

The picture of the cape is actually the back to show off the designs. I feel like a dark and mysterious version of Professor Trelawney when I wear it. It's amazing.
