O the rising of the sun, and the running of the deer

Merry yuletide to you,world, and you find me in excellent cheer. The smell of mincemeat and chestnuts is pretty much infused into my skin everywhere, and I am now SUPER DUPER excited about Christmas! And cripes and crackers - somehow it's Christmas Eve! I'm not sure I'll be able to sleep tonight! On Sunday my lovely friend Saffron (blogless) and I skipped into Matlock to indulge in a bit o' last minute shopping, and had a beautiful time! This is what I wore:

My shirt is from a charity shop, as is the jumper, and my new floral jeans are from Primark. You can't see it very clearly, but I'm also wearing a lovely vintage canvas backpack!

 A close-up of my floral shirt...

And a close up of the bobbles on my jumper! I wasn't sure about the jumper when I bought it, but as soon as I put it on I fell in love. It's what I class as a 'granny jumper', complete with little 3d bobbles!

 And this is a cardigan I bought in Matlock...I adore it's spanglyness (is that a real word?),and it's very Christmassy. Which is good, because have I mentioned that it's CHRISTMAS EVE?!!!

 A spangles close up!

As I was editing the afore-seen photos I accidentally did this, and thought it looked quite rad and gritty! might be just me, but I'm putting it out there. Have an extremely merry Christmas, flower faeries, and a happy new year!

Those were the disco days, sequins and spotlights and bright starry eyes.

Hello internet! It's me again, and I am mighty sorry i haven't written in forever - I've just been mortal busy with lots of things, but mainly my art homework. Anyhoo - I am back! And this post is justa  general kinda catch-up post (How exciting I'm making this sound!) so we're all up to speed. So, firtsly, I realised I didn't properly go into detail about my presents - but I can't go through every single one, so I shall just go through the clothezzzz.
I got these amazink zebra socks from Leila:

This gorgy floral dress from Bronia:

And these lovingly made lace ruffle scoks from Hannah:

On the Saturday just gone it was our friend Beth's birthday party, so we all trooped round Chesterfield, and I bought these 'ere sockingtons:

Then on the Sunday just gone we had a big family meet up and I got this camera case:

And these troosiemabobs:

So, oui, I'd say I was doing wonderfully! I'm feeling pretty happy at the momentus, even if there is that whole school malarkey going on, I have my wondiferous friends! Another subject of extreme importance/excitement is my discovery of a film camera, tucked awa from my parents' misspent youth! I immediately pounced, and claimed it as my own, and this is what it looks like!

See you soon le internet - but for now, The Great British bake Off calls!
