I wore this outfit on Christmas Day and I was so excited about these cute pop socks from Joanie Clothing! I’ve been wanting to wear socks with shoes for a while, but I felt silly trying the trend. Christmas Day was perfect to try it out as I was only really at home with my family – it turns out I love it!! I want to wear socks with shoes every day! I got another pair which are kind of gold glittery and I might get another couple of pairs as they’re only £1 in the sale right now!
Fran introduced me to Joanie Clothing and I love it!! I got this skirt from there too and it fits so well – I’m so pleased because I’ve wanted a black and white striped skirt for ages since I first came across Delightfully Tacky and her fun patten clash outfits. I got a size 14 and it’s a perfect fit for me (I’m a 12/14). The only gripe I have with Joanie Clothing is that there isn’t more options to choose from as I want this skirt in every pattern and colour to match my whole wardrobe ;)
I bought the stripy blouse when we were in Catania in Sicily for my birthday. There were so many things I wanted to buy over there, but we only had carry on luggage, what a fail. One of these days I’m going to save up and go on a massive shopping spree in a European city – their collections are so much more stylish than the clothes we have here in the UK.
We had a lovely, but quiet Christmas Day this year as it was the first Christmas I have ever spent without my big brother (who swanned off to spend the day with his girlfriend’s family, ugh!). Me, Stu and my Mum got a little merry on Prosecco, cooked an amazing dinner and played games with some friends in the evening. What did you all get up to? I hope you had a relaxing break! Loves x xx
