I’ve been rushed off my feet so apologies for lack of posts this past week! (that rhymes!)

My anonymity essay has to be handed in today and Public Admin work tomorrow so fashion news had to be put on hold. But no more. It’s Christmas time, lets indulge ourselves in fashion.

HEADLINE NEWS

50% off Office shoes– so get down there!

 – ASOS and Miss Selfridge are doing the most incredible online sales, you need to see them. FREE delivery!

UPDATE

The House of Commons reporting day was amazing. Absolutely loved it. Took an amazing photo within the grounds of Big Ben, the Millennium Wheel and their Xmas tree. Will upload it asap.

Found an ITV crew doing live reporting from there and chatted to the crew. Really lovely. Correspondant- very smartly dressed, however, his make up was far too thick.

Perhaps should reconsider the white trenchcoat next time. Was unecessarily cold at times. Shivering in lobby, goose pumps in conference room, you get the idea.

PARTY

Was my best friend’s (of Barry M Fame-she met him actually!) birthday party on Saturday. Had a good time. Dressed in purple concession dress from Topshop. Very vintage and ‘romantic’. I loved it. Early Christmas present from my mum in fact. Wore yummy purple suede shoes. But i’ll tell you all about them in my next post…Bet you can’t wait.

Quick Barry M Update…

Referring to my previous post,  the neon pink nail varnish proved very hard to find but success at last! Go to the website or trundle on down to the Topshop flagship store and you’ll find it! J x

Barry M Baby

Barry M is experiencing something of a revival…well with me anyway.

The cheap and cheerful cosmetics company, which is sold in branches of Superdrug across the UK, has long been a staple with teenagers but now it seems to be coming into its own.

The other day, one of my best friends sported a neon pink on her nails and I actually squealed! ‘Where did you get it??’ I say, grabbing my friends hand.  ‘Barry M’ she replied.

This may seem like absolute nonsense but a flourescent nail varnish is incredibly hard to find. The number of times I’ve bought a shocking pink only to discover that it’s only a dull shade of the colour…but no more!

I quizzed her further and she revealed that apart from neon pink, they also do it in green and yellow, aside from the multitude of other colours they do.

How much are they? £2.95-what is not to love? Plus, they are reasonably good quality too!

Barry M doesn’t stop there either, the glitter liquid eyeliner is so much fun and only £4.95 so we can all have a go!

Oh, by the way, the neon pink on my nails? Never coming off!
