The Christmas Jumper Challenge Day 8: Pixel Pullover

Hi all,
This is the outfit that I wore on Thursday

I wore M&S Corduroy leggings in Navy,
With a Black Topshop Bodycon Vest Dress
and a geometric/aztec print snood from the mens section at River Island


and of course this Statement Christmas jumper from River Island,
I got it in the sale last week for £20
I love the geometric 'pixel' style pattern.
I got a Medium, its more than big enough, quite oversized. 


I picked out the bright colours of the jumper
with this Green leather biker jacket bag by Angel Jackson
I got it for my birthday a couple of years ago
It was a bit of an investment, but such good quality and well worth it.

It was rainy and cold so I wore my Brown Hiking/Walking boots by Manas
italian leather, yet very practical and comfy!


only 4 xmas jumpers left!

The Christmas Jumper Challenge Day 5: Read all about it!

 So today was day 5,
I absolutely love today's jumper! 


I wore Black corduroy treggings from Tu at sainsburys
A long black H&M T-shirt
Gok Wan for Specsavers Glasses
and..............



Squeeel, isn't this fab! 
It's from the mens range at British Christmas Jumpers
its the 'Daily Starr News' Jumper
I'm a 14 and bought it in a mens M and it fits just perfect
Such a cute novelty news paper print.
I saw it and just couldn't resist, and it's very comfy too.

In case you didn't see the other day 
British Christmas Jumpers have kindly given me a code 
that you guys can use to get a 20% discount until Christmas day.
They have all sorts of designs in multiple colours and styles.
At the checkout enter: 20%MH



I used a sharkskin shade stick by mac on my eyes
and a Revlon just bitten lip stain in flame on my lips


I paired it with my Jigsaw Leather Studded Star Cluster Tote Bag
from 2010/11 I think,
just such a lovely easy to wear bag


and finally on my feet I wore my Clarks Majorca Sun faux fur lined leather biker boots
I've just had these re-heeled to hopefully last a couple more winters.

What Milly Wore: Bird Print Bag from Bank Fashion

How gorgeous is this bag??
I know right, such a cute floral/bird print!
I was lucky enough to be asked by Bank fashion to review an item from their website.
after having a good mooch I came across this lovely bag by Paul's Boutique
and knew this is what I had to pick!
Now if your a regular on my blog, you might know that I'm already a Paul's Boutique fan
I own a few of their bags, but to me this one is just a little bit special!
I love the whimsical twee print,
it feels a bit more sophisticated than some of their bags, but still fun.
Here is what I wore with my bag:
Black tunic dress with gold stud detail: Topshop (quite old)
Blue Jeggings: George at Asda (super comfy and cheap too!)
Burgundy Leather Boots: Office (£90ish a few years ago)
Butterfly Print Kimono Jacket: Matthew Williamson @ Debenhams (£15 Sale)
Isn't this jacket cute, it's great for this in between weather,
and the butterfly print is really bright and eye-catching.
I got 4 compliments on my bag today (the first time of using it!)
which goes to show how fab it is!
I will definitely get my use out of it,
its a great size to fit a lot in without being huge.
It was delivered very quickly,
and I just think it's really unique and quirky!
Thanks to Bank fashion for asking me to review it :)

Have you shopped at Bank before?
Are you a Paul's Boutique fan?

Fashion Fix: Topshop's Take on the Furla Candy Bag

If you're anything like me,
you will have spotted the Furla Candy Bag everywhere last summer.
I loved them, kitsch plastic colourful bags
what's not to like!
 I had looked into getting one, but with an RRP of £200 it wasn't meant to be


Well, Imagine my joy when this week I spotted these similar bags on Topshop.com
In a range of colours and shapes, topshop have really had a great go at the jelly bag trend.
This shape is so similar to the Candy Bag, that it would be rude not to get it!

Although I love the bright colours,
I'm also quite taken by this cream / nude style
They would all be great for SS12

See all the styles here (check out the rucksack versions too)

what do you think of toppers designer remake??

What Milly Wore: Skeleton You Are My Friend

Hello there all of you :)
I've been at work a lot this week, so I thought I'd post an outfit I wore a few days ago!


Burgundy chunky knit boyfriend cardigan - New Look (a good few months ago) £18 ish
This cardy is super warm and comfy,
and I really like the shawl style collar, it feels a little like a smoking jacket!

Black skull oversized t-shirt - Topshop 2 years ago £20 ish
This must be one of my most worn t-shirts,
I love the fit and length, and anything with skulls on is good with me.

Black turban - gift from a friend
My gbf was getting rid of some clothes 
and this is one of the things I  ended up being given
turbans are great for bad hair days and are so much more chic than a beanie.

Black and white polka dot skinny jeans - ASOS 1-2 years ago (sale) £15 ish
I've worn these on the blog before,
they're just so easy to wear with everything, a definite staple of my wardrobe.


Nude coloured slouchy Padlock bag - Marks & Spencer, 2 years or so ago £35
Such a great bag, not real leather but it doesn't bother me.
you would never guess its from m&s!


Dalmatian / Leopard print heart ankle boots - Deena & Ozzy via Urban Outfitters (sale) £30
I got these just after christmas and I adore them,
 they have that fuzzy pony skin type finish which is really cool.
They are super comfy too, which I wasn't expecting. 

Hope you like it my loves

What Milly Wore: Aztec Swan

Hi Folks,
So I've not really made a new year resolution persay,
but I am trying to get myself organised, by sorting through my room
and my wardrobes to get rid of what I don't wear

But also I am trying to make use of pieces that I love 
but don't get use out of for some reason.
I'd like to vary my outfits more,
care less what others think of my style,
and experiment a bit!



Here is what I wore Yesterday:
Khaki Quilted Jacket: River Island (last year) £30 ish
I've had so much use out of this jacket but it is yet to be featured on the blog
as I usually wear it just with t-shirt and jeans.
It's kind of barbour esque which I love

Nude / Pale Pink Padlock Bag: M&S (last year) £39 ish
I'm not really an M&S kind of person
but I saw this bag in a magazine and just had to buy it!
and I haven't regretted it,
Its really unique spacious and well made, just wish it was leather!


Black Pearl Cardigan: New Look (sale last year) £9 ish
I never wear this cardigan,
purely because it annoys me that I cant do it up!
I do love the pearl detailings and buttons though.

Swan Digital Print Cropped Top: H&M £19.99
This is a fairly recent purchase that I've just not got round to wearing
I just think the swan is very mysterious looking, 
and I love anything with a photographic or digital print
Also seen on my Clothes Twin Hannah :)

Aztec Bodycon Midi Skirt: River Island £20 this season
I bought this skirt on Tuesday,
I'd had my eye on it for a while, and decided at £20 it was worth it!
I really like the print, that it's high waisted and the midi length
It's amazing!

Black Leggings: £4 Primark
As always, actually need to buy a few more pairs!


I love the clashing prints,
They shouldnt go together but they somehow do!

Black Leather & Tweed Fabric Buckle Boots 'Smoke': Carvela Kurt Geiger
Original Price £180 Sale Price £89 Price after discount code & voucher £49 :)
I love these boots, couldnt believe I got them for such a good price!
I featured them on my blog a couple of months ago 
but didnt think I would be able to afford them
They are really comfy and fur/fuzzy lined.

Think that's everything guys,
Do you like to clash prints?
Have you had any surprise sale bargains?

What Milly Wore: Tatty Devine


Why hello there :)
Here is what I wore yesterday:

Sheer White Shirt: £20 ish New Look
Zebra Print Bag: £80 ish Barbie for Pauls Boutique
Black and white skull scarf: H&M


Chelsea Girl Cropped T-shirt: River Island (last year, couldn't resist the pink with rainbow speckles)

Black and white quilted flats: Peacocks (last year, seriously comfy)

(was in my lucky dip box from their mega sale!)

For some reason I really loved this outfit, and it was put together very last minute!
why is it that outfits you spend hours on never look as good as the spontaneous ones!
I'll have to do a separate Tatty Devine post at some point, because I went a little overboard in their sale, and I owned quite a bit anyway :)
