Two gorgeous things for Christmas parties!

Like most women I love shoes, especially ones with 5 inch heels and I just wanted to do a quick post to show you the newest addition to my collection.

These heels are fabulous and as soon as I saw them I had to have them, it doesn't matter that my normal size were too wide for my feet and the size smaller really pinched my feet. I HAD to have them, to hell with practicality.

Close up!

The bows are gorgeous and really remind me of Christmas (gift wrapping on the brain), I can't wait to wear these out this party season! This weekend I'm going up to Leeds for cocktails and dinner parties, I'm so excited to show them off.

I just love the combination of patent leather and velvet. If you were wondering where they are from you can get them from River Island and they were £59.99. They also come in an amazing electric blue which I may just have to buy too!

While shopping yesterday I also spied these amazing hair bobbles in Accessorize, if you've watched my latest YT video you'll know of my love for anything black and gold or studded.

They come in a pack of three, each with a different shade of bauble. I love these and since I've had my hair cut have really been enjoying wearing it up.

These make a nice change from ordinary bobbles and make the pony tail just that little bit prettier and dressed up. Great for looking nice at work or going out.

The pack of three cost £5 which I know sounds a lot for three hair bobbles but they are so worth it, they look gorgeous and are really great quality. The bands are really stretchy and I doubt will snap easily.

I may have a go at trying to make my own over the next week, red ones would be nice and festive!

With the shops full of gorgeous things this Christmas have you found any amazing pieces you can't wait to wear this party season?
