My new Vera Wang shoes. So comfortable to walk in. And I'm not great for heels lately. Needed a nice new pair of plain pumps so delighted with them. Got them in Kohls for only $50!

Bought these from the Topshop website. I've no idea what I'll wear them with but hot damn, I think they're sexy

I bought this NYX make-up artist kit in TK Maxx today, I was looking at them for awhile and decided today was the the day It was originally 20 euro but they were selling off a few others that had been damaged for a fiver so I went a took a peek.


I picked up this one and apart from the clasp broken on the slide out eyeshadow lid, one broken eyeshadow, the grubby looking applicators and a bit of blusher dust there was nothing wrong with it.

One broken eyeshadow but the rest are perfect


The grubby applicators which I threw out as I have no need for them and the side where the eyeshadow panel should slide out.

This is a picture before I gave it a nice clean the blusher dust makes it look so dirty but with a bit of kitchen roll it shined it up lovely I am very happy with my find!

Thanks for the heads up

I ordered perfume off Cheapsmells.com. Hopefully it doesn't take that long to deliver or else my sister will be going without a Christmas present.

Finally ventured into Forever21 today to check out their plus size section (although I would hesitate at calling it plus size, the sizing is just ridiculous in general in that shop). Picked up this beauty which is just fab on, my new favourite dress ever:

MIN2511

How much was the dress and what sizes do they have? It's pretty

fillefatale

Found my new wardrobe staple in Zara today. Moss green blazer, €60


Pinafore dress, about €50
Had to get a size up in this as it was tight on the bust, but now it doesn't fit as well around the waist. Oh well! Really lovely material and it has pockets!


I got this in a wine colour. Its really comfortable, I love it! Around €25 I think which isn't bad considering Topshop would probably charge €45 for it.


Zara is stocking everything I want in my wardrobe atm, pity this is all I can afford. But the parents generously bought them for me as my Xmas presents.

€23.80 and I'm between a 16 and an 18 and I got a 1XL. The XL sort of fitted as well but it crushed my boobs and sat weird on my hips (i.e. it didn't really fit but with different proportions it might suit someone of the same size as me). It's the kind of dress that's meant to be worn a bit loose in my opinion.

If I were going on my sizing (which changes from shop to shop but I'm comparing it to the sizing in Dorothy Perkins as the best example I can think of) I would say an XL is a 14-16, a 1XL is a 16-18, a 2XL is an 18-20 and a 3XL is a 20-22.

But as someone said in the F21 thread a few weeks ago, it's the kind of place with the sort of sizing that I would recommend trying everything on from the plus size range because I picked up a top that was the same size of my dress and it looked about a 20.

Thanks a million, i'm mostly a 14 but I've got massive boobs(34H) so i always go for 14-16. Was in F21 today, i never go to the Plus size. Would do for this dress

Thanking you

GORGEOUS!!! :eek:

Miss Lockhart

I got these recently in Schuh, but I don't know whether to keep them.



I wanted to wear them with a black dress to brighten it up a little. However, I hate my legs, so I really need to wear opaque tights and I'm not sure they will look ok with them.

Acoshla

Miss Lockhart I love them! What about dark black tights or maybe purple or teal tights or something?
