Christmas Jumpers!


HELLLLOOO!

I imagine you will be getting your Christmas jumper soon if you haven't already, now I know some people feel Christmas jumpers are dare I say tacky..? 
But I have got my favourite jumpers that are so stylish, people will be envious when they see you wearing it!


I have picked 4 out so you have one for each week in the run up to Christmas.


I love this one so much it! 
The quote on the jumper is from Elf which is one the best Christmas films!
It's an absolute bargain too at only £15 which for a jumper is pretty good!


Another classic is this one. 
The red and white of course is the classic Christmas colours you need.
Andddd, it's another film jumper, it's from Home Alone 2 and it's only £15 and comes in loads of different colours!


This has to be one of favourite ones this year, I absolutely love the detail the gingerbread man, it's a fairly simple design as a whole the jumper, but I think it's very chic I love as well how it's not brash and you can wear it and feel comfortable. 
Guess what?! It's only £15 as well!



Then last but not least pouts not sprouts, that's what we want, I'm not going to lie, I love Christmas, but the one thing I hate about it is Brussels sprout, the smell of them makes me sick, so that's why this Christmas I may have to get this jumper plus it's in petite so perfect for me as I'm only 5'3'', so I think this may be on my jumper wish list.
This jumper is a little more expensive than the others, but come in still at only £20!


Until Next Time

Merry Christmas

POMPOMS!!

So now everyone loves the pompom keyrings even the Kardashian's/Jenner's have been spotted with them!
At some places I give it them for being good business minded, but, they can be expensive, so, I thought today I would show you how to make them!


What you are going to need
Faux fur 15cm diameter (in colour of your choice)
a tape measure 
a sewing needle
A palm full of stuffing
Thread similar to the fur
A key chain clasp
A small length of elastic



The first thing you are going to do, is get your elastic, and, keychain clasp, hook the clasp through the elastic, and, sew the elastic together so the clasp can't fall out.

Next, you need to lay the fur flat and sew in the elastic so you know where to start from and end.


When you have sewn it together, you need to do a concertina stitch (I don't know if that's what it's called but I have a visual for you below) 
But basically this will make the fabric come together and make it a pompom shape.


I usually do 4 bits at a time and just make my way round the circle.

Once you have it all sown, pull the thread round so that it gathers round, don't forget a knot in one end so that it doesn't all undo your hard work!

Once you have got it so it is partially gathered, get your stuffing, and gather the rest, and, pull tight.

Eventually, it will look a little something like this.


You will need to tighten round and tie a knot tight and then you will have your very own pompom!


Then you can have as many as you like you can even make them for friends its a really nice home made gift!


Until Next Time

Lash'n'Brow Magic

Growing up, my Mum always gave me great beauty tips for looking after yourself.



One of those has stuck with me, that I swear by, and, it helps you grow and maintain your 'lashes and 'brows!

I have always received comments about how naturally full my brows are, and, how long my lashes are naturally.

It was all down to a beauty hack my Mum taught me and you may be surprised when you hear this.....  Vaseline. Yes, really it honestly works wonders.

Pre-Autumn Autumn style


Its that awkward time of year when it's cool half the day and scorching hot the other half. 

So that is why I thought that this week I would show you a few outfits put together on my Polyvore that are using layering techniques so that your not freezing in the morning and melting in the afternoon!

Outfit Number 1

Autumn OOTD 3 2016

This first look is great if you are wanting a, I just threw this on but I still look fab outfit, it's a very simply blue jeans you could wear black with a plain white tee, honestly you could get them anywhere from Primark to Topshop whatever float your boat/budget, what glam's the look up is the cape and handbag the cape I'm showing you is Burberry, but honestly, if you go to your local market over the weekend you can find really similar patterns and make your own I even did in a blog post a while ago click here to check out how your could make your own. If you don't fancy making one you can get them from your high street shops, however, I do still find them a bit pricey no where near as much as designers but  you can make them for a lot less. The bag is from peacocks you may want to sit when you hear the price, it's only £16.00 its amazing I couldn't believe it myself. The heals are Dorothy Perkins £38 for me the heels keep it fashionable if you get the warmth in the day and need to take your cape off.
