Jumper Dress & Chunky Knits

Hello Hello Mixbagers. I can only apologise for my poor posting this past week, I feel like I’ve already put my blogging New Years Resolution in jeopardy and it’s still only bloomin’ January! But anyway onwards and upwards and all that -  the reason I’ve been so busy is I have recently started interning at Motel Rocks HQ for 2 days a week and am still working at my retail job alongside it so it’s all been a tad busy! I’m absolutely loving it though so it makes not having much spare time worth it! You can check out the blog posts I’ve been posting on the Motel blog here, here, here and here.

Stud Bag // Similar - New Look
Bird Necklace // Oasis

Above is a quick glance at another of my outfits from the snow days last week! In the winter a jumper dress is definitely one of my favourite outfits, I love nothing more than popping on a comfy jumper dress, leggings and boots! This one was a bit of a steal from Primark for £10, I love its maroon colouring and the feature elbow pads and it’s also been made with a novelty yarn so has a flicker of different colours running through it. (hello textiles info!)The chunky knit scarf which I have worn to death this winter is Topshop and the little bird pendent necklace is from Oasis whilst the stud bag is from New Look.

It feels very strange looking at these snow pictures now the sun is out! Hopefully it’s here to stay though and we can all start looking forward to the Spring Summer season! I've got some product reviews to share with you all shortly as my nail art transfers from WooWoo nails arrived the other week and I've recently bought an amazing Lee Stafford product I want to share with you all :)

Leather & Studs

Hola! I thought I would do a little outfit post on what I wore to The Editeur blogging event which I last posted about! I'd finally invested in some black (p)leather shorts from Topshop, and I've only just discovered just how much they go with pretty much anything whether you're trying to dress up or dress down! They're so comfy as well so I've been regretting not buying them sooner!

I wore them with a white hi-lo River Island jumper that has a little twinkly silver thread running through it but unfortunately my camera didn't quite pick up on that! I also popped on an Aztec gold pendent necklace from Topshop and my trusty Chelsea boots from Miss Selfridge. The studded tan bag is an absolute bargain from Primark! I thought it looked quite Zara-styley and at least twice the amount its actually worth (£12.99).  To add a bit of a colour, I wore my latest favourite lipstick, a bright coral shade from Barry M!

 For those of you who have seen the last post, you'll remember me saying how fun the event was and amazingly a blogger competition was arranged with a Alice by Temperley scarf up for grabs! Thanks to the lovely Editeur Team and Sarah and Claire, my blog post was chosen and I won the gorgeous tiger print scarf! (See the post on The Editeur website here ) I can't tell you how happy I was when it came through my letter box on Friday! So again a huge thank you to the girls for selecting me! I could definitely rival the wild in it! Here is a pic of it in all it's glory:

Just to add to my blogger happiness this week (sorry if I keep gushing) I was so chuffed to see Fashion Mixbag has reached the 100 follower mark! Not a massive amount in comparison to many other blogs I know, but it meant a lot to me, so thank you to all you fabulous Fashion Mixbag-ers for following!

Hope you're all having a lovely weekend!
