It's cold during Wintour- Happy New Year

Just what the Doctor ordered










for my handsome man's birthday i decided to treat him to a new pair of shoes. if you have been on this blog before and seen my earlier posts, I had blogged about these pony skin Dr.Matrens briefly ( by briefly I mean added their picture to the 'all i want for Christmas' post) Although I initially wanted them for myself, the good-hearted me, Andrew Demetry, decided to put my needs and wants aside and give someone special something that i found incredibly beautiful knowing of course that it was something that he wanted too.

a week later, after getting the boyfriend on his train home for Christmas, I decided to walk down to Primrose hill to check out a gallery that I had heard of...there I came across Mary Portas' Charity Shop and guess what i found? that's right- I found myself some delicious unworn Dr.Martens for £50. BARGAIN. so now we have his and his D.M's how sweet/gay/lovely/tacky....either way, both our feet are warm.

Pleats Pleats Please Let me Get What I Want This Time





And so I eventually got what I want...Good evening all. I know it has been a while since i last posted something but working in retail, especially during this horrific period, gives one absolutely no time to do, well, blog, write, read, or do anything that you might enjoy doing. Its not solely the jobs fault, its because the job puts you in such a foul mood where all you want to do is sleep just so the day can come to an end as soon as possible and let the following crap day to commence. 

On a lighter note- during a day at work, I was informed about the Issey Miyake sample sale off Bond Street. I rushed there immediately during my sad 60 minutes break where I was greeted by this beautiful Pleats Please bag. 

Originally, having spotted the larger black bag a few months earlier, that was the one I wanted- however staying true to myself  through my past articles/blog-posts I decided to opt for something with a little bit of colour...and this is what I bought.
