Dressed to impress

I have been hankering after this dress for many, many months.  

Today it arrived.

 Truth be told, I need to lose a bit of weight before wearing it out in public, but I absolutely love it. 

The slip of red satin and the corsetry at the back gives it a glamorous feel and an edgier look. 

I am over the moon with it.

 I am not so over the moon about my hair.

Stupid fringe , Why did I do it? Do excuse my epic over drawn lips in these pictures...

have you ever had a day where your lip liner slipped and you are in too much of a rush to alter it/didn’t think it looked THAT bad till you uploaded pictures to the internet and realized you were sporting drag queen lips? No? Just me? Oh.

ANYWAY

 I am TRYING to wear the fringe to the side as I really don't like the blunt fringe look on me, at all.

I tried pushing it to the side both with my hair up and down but both look a little odd.

Oh well.

On a happier note,

I spent a long weekend with my best friend and her family in Donegal.

On St Patrick's day we took a trip in to Derry where I bought some more shoes. 

Gold glitter boots

 I couldn’t walk past them,

I am such a magpie. 

They most likely will never be worn.

And pair of burgundy heeled boots which I uncharacteristically liked.

Three pounds each. 

THREE POUNDS! 

I love a good bargain.
