I don't claim to be perfect - I know I'm damaged goods, but I wanna be let out of darkness, just like every lady would

Happy Friday everyone!

Yeah! This week has gone so quick for me...Im looking forward to the weekend especially Sunday as the boys of the house are off to the footie (Sunderland v Man city) and Jas is at the in laws so its just going to be meeee.....all alone on Mothers day! Reiss asked me the other day what my perfect present was and I said some peace and quiet haha, look like I got it! I will have to think of things to do with myself!

I have received my first award! Yay!



I received this from the lovely Alex of http://oddsocksandprettyfrocks.blogspot.com/. I am supposed to share my fantasy bag with you all..erm ok here goes.


Ok I must admit Im not a designer whore.I dont hanker after any of the Spring/ Summer fashions that were on the catwalk and I dont (*gasps of horror) really give a damn about London fashion week.....but when it comes to bags I have big dreams. And I dream of a Chloe! Ever since I saw a picture of a Paddington I have wanted one, and currently this is my favourite!



A snip at a mere £895, I can buy 2 right?? Ah a girl can dream cant she? Actually to be honest if I did have that money to spend I would have a problem with my conscience buying something that expensive, I would have to donate the equivelant to chairty..... but its soooo pwetty!!!

I think Im supposed to tag some others in this so I nominate the lovely Laura from http://www.adaisychaindream.blogspot.com, D from http://heart-shaped-bruise.blogspot.com and Charlotte from http://charlotte-lifesaboutthejourney.blogspot.com...so girls confess whats your dream bag?? Apologises I dont know how to do fancy link like the others lol


So onto todays outfit I am laughing in the face of the wind and rain today and wearing something springlike. I will probably regret this when I come home this afternoon freezing and soaked but heyho!

Im wearing:



Long tshirt top from ebay tucked into a cream, pink and green patterned skirt. I wasnt too sure if this would work as the top is a baggy shape so I have belted it in with a chunky stretchy belt. thick tights were needed and all the colours I have didnt match so I opted for black.



Green mary jane shoes as I didnt want to wear boots (again).



My lovely in laws got me this necklace for Christmas, I love it as it has an antique/ vintage look to it.



I tied my hair back as theres not much point in this weather trying to do it as it tangles up so easily. I wore my blue mac when I went out.




I wanted to share another little something I got from my lovely mother in law. She actually gave me this to ebay but i decided it was far too nice for that and it goes really well on my slouchy bag. Its an oversized bag charm with flowers and a little bird. I have also attached a brooch I bought a while ago from Char at trexesandtiaras..I think it goes well.


So...onto my mini giveaway...its not much but a few little things I thought would be appreciated to celebrate my getting to 20 followers:


The winner will receive:



Green sequin scarf, Snake skin print card wallet from Accesorize, some body lotion and shower gel from the body shop in White Musk and sweet Clementine body scrub (smells yummy!). A purple sparkley make up/toiletry bag to put it all in. And a lovely black hairband with sequin bow.

  4. What a bright, pretty skirt! It works well with the simple top.

    My favourite piece of clothing? It would have to be a black t-shirt with a holographic dragon applique, which I am grimly hanging onto on the off-chance that it will fit again. Usually I am ruthless about purging my wardrobe but I just can't stand the thought of someone else having it!

  5. That skirt is gorgeous ! It looks lovely on you xx I love the bag charm, what a lovely MIL you have.

    I'd love to enter your giveaway too please? My favourite piece of clothing has got to be my bright red tulip style skirt from Ebay. I thought it would look awful on but after only wearing it once, it's taken pride of place in my wardrobe :0)

  6. Such a pretty outfit on you, Sharon! That customised bag charm and necklace are both divine.
    Please enter me for your draw! My favourite piece of clothing has to be my spotty vintage maxi the previous owner wore to see Jimi Hendrix at the Isle of Wight festival in 1971. I feel like a bohmenian rock chick whenever I stick it on.

  9. I agree with you on the bag front there haha and that skirt is extremely pretty. And nice prizes for your giveaway, I shall indeed be entering!

    My favourite item of clothing (can it be a past piece I've had to pass on due to wear and tear?) If so then it was my Babycham shoes! They were so comfy and so lovely for all kinds of weather that I wore them to extinction, otherwise then it is my new black and white striped rose top which I got from Asda for a mere £8 because it's floaty, breezy and pretty glittery too so it's perfect for day and night :)

  10. I appear to have totally forgotten to enter this! Whoops, shall quickly rectify that mistake.

    My favourite piece of clothing, hmmm. I'm struggling to think of anything as I have lots of clothes I love but nothing that really stands out about the rest of the wardrobe. It's probably the shamefully ancient grey jumper that I pinched from my dad. Instant cosiness and comfort.
