Apologies for the grainy quality of these pictures, I'd carted my camera out to York to take some outfit shots, but when I pulled it out of bag I discovered the battery was completely dead!  Doh!  Seen as I was in beautiful York I couldn't not take some pics so had to make do with the good old iPhone...

I couldn't leave it much longer without getting a new winter coat, it's just absolutely freezing at the moment! When shopping for a new coat I had a good idea that I wanted fur on it, all the other details in my head were pretty vague!  As soon as I spotted this fitted, skirted coat in H&M I knew I'd found 'the one'!  At £59.99 I think was quite a bargain, and to be honest I can't afford to spend much more at the moment.  The detatchable fur collar made it even more perfect, I'm sure there will be times when I don't fancy wearing the fake fur, and the collar has even come in handy when I wanted to jazz up an old leather jacket recently!

No matter how much I love this coat, I still can't quite get over the fact that summer is over and it's freezing all the time... but it goes someway to helping!!

Me and Chris at a romantic meal in York, after picking the engagement ring  //  The ring!  I absolutely love it! Classic, petite, timeless and very pretty.  Today we had to return for resizing just ever so slightly smaller.  I'm really going to miss it in the 10 days before I get it back!  //  I had my first Christmas Starbucks this week!  I was so torn between the praline latte and the gingerbread latte.  I went for the gingerbread in the end, it's SO good! The red cup flavours are one of the best thing about winter!  //  A rubbish thing about winter is the dark! This picture was taken while driving home from work! Boo!  //  Getting my nails into the Christmas spirit, I loved wearing this glittery Models Own polish this week.  Juicy Jules for anyone interested.  //  The Innocent smoothie Big Knit is back!  I'm building up quite a collection of these fab little hats, they are decorating my desk at work!  //  I was in an amazing little restaurant in Leeds, called Little Tokyo, celebrating my engagement with some friends, when the staff donned crazy masks and proceeded to act out a fight scene with lightsabers!  Very bizarre!!  //  In York for a wonder round, wearing my new much loved winter coat... a sneak peek at some outfit pictures outside York Minster  :)

I've posted about the fabulous Sleek Make Up Palettes before, and think they are fabulous value for only £6.49.  I'd mentioned the Oh So Special Palette in my Nude Collection review, but have myself reaching for it more and more recently so thought it justified a post all of it's own!  

My favourite thing about the Oh So Special Palette is that it genuinely covers all occasions!  You genuinely can get away with taking this palette and only this palette on a weekend away and be covered for all your eyeshadow needs with warm subtle shades for during the day and rich autumnal colours for a smokey evening look...  I've even been known to use the colour Ribbon as an emergency blusher!!

There is a great mix of mattes and shimmers, and even though there is often a bit of fall out I've never really experienced any more than what I have with a more expensive eye shadow.

Sleek palettes are definitely something I'll continue to collect!  Have you tried any?  Which is you favourite?

River Island ankle booties



I spotted these boots from across the store on a recent shopping trip to River Island and fell in love straight away.  I love the height of the boot and most of those studs!   I just don't think I can justify the £75 price tag at the moment.  I'd love to know what you guys think?  Go on! Enable me!  lol :)
