Friday Fancies - skiing with style

I've only ever been on a skiing holiday once, and it was just the best time ever! 

I was 15 years old, and it was a school trip to Austria (and the first holiday away with my friends...so much fun). 

I would love to go again one day, but in the meantime I will carry on dreaming of my future holiday filled with hot chocolates, log cabins, fluffy socks and bobble hats. 

Oh, and lots and lots of skiing...of course.

Walkies and meatballs...

The snow has well and truly melted now (thank you sunshine / rainstorm), so we made the most of being able to walk on the pavement without the fear of slipping on the icy paths and landing flat on our bums (yes, I have done this unfortunately...thanks very much patch of ice right outside my car). 

Here's a little recap of my weekend!

- We also took a trip to IKEA.  We had a small list of 4 things we wanted...but ended buying so much more.   It's so easy to just stuff things in your trolley when the price is so cheap isn't it? 

While we were in IKEA...we couldn't leave without buying some meatballs could we?  This delicious purchase resulted in hubby making a Swedish inspired lasagna for tea last night.  Meatball lasagna is the future.

- I was also busy admiring all the gorgeous frocks from yesterday's SAG awards.  Jennifer Garner was looking foxy in gold, also I loved how elegant Jennifer Lawrence looked.  So to recap....if you're called Jennifer I was pretty much drooling over your gorgeousness!

How was your weekend?

Friday Fancies - time to sparkle!

You can't beat a bit of sparkle to glam up an outfit.  This week's Friday Fancies has come just in time for all the Christmas parties that are currently ongoing. 

Whilst I missed my own work Christmas do (as I was busy eating waffles and chocolate in Bruges, yum.  Ah well, what's a girl to do!)  However, this still hasn't stopped me dreaming of the perfect outfit to wear...

Leather shorts worn together with a simple blouse is always a good combination.  I've paired this with sparkly gold shoes, to make it more appropriate and fun!

I've got some exciting news also...we're getting a puppy!  My dreams have finally come true, I've wanted a dog for so long now and it's finally the right time to get one.  In fact...we're picking her up tomorrow...so we're in for a very exciting weekend!

Friday Fancies: winter treat

What is the best thing to do on a cold winter's day?  Drink a huge mug of hot chocolate, that's what!  It's one of my favourite treats to have, especially in the run up to Christmas.  So this week's Friday Fancies has been inspired by just that - a warm, comforting mug of homemade hot choc.

I just want to snuggle up in this jumper immediately.  And the brown leather pants...gorgeous!

Enjoy your Friday everyone!

Friday fancies: jumper time!

Now there's nothing I like better than wearing a comfy, warm jumper during cold days.  This purple and pink ombre knitted number is perfect for me - I adore long baggy jumpers paired up with skinny jeans.  I thought the biker boots also gives the outfit a bit of an edge.

With just 3 weeks until my wedding, I'm in full final planning mode.  I have my final dress fitting tomorrow (can't wait to see my dress again!), also trying to sort out bridesmaids fittings...meeting the photographer...making the table plan and table numbers....and many many other things....phew!

What's everyone up to this weekend?
