12 Days of Christmas Outfits: Christmas Eve – The Bauble Dress

HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVE! I love Christmas Eve, it’s that last little bit of anticipation before Christmas. I generally spend a lot of the day cleaning the house in preparation for spending 10 days making a complete mess of it again, before attiring myself in something suitably festive to go to the pub for a drink,

Day 22: An Instant Shape Corset from Corset Story

Just 3 more doors left to open! Behind door 22 is an Instant Shape corset from Corset Story. This is one of their easy wear corsets, it can reduce your waist by 1-2 inches, but it’s not a waist training style so is much easier if you just want something glam to wear on a

12 Days of Christmas Outfits: Day Eight – The Penguin Dress

That’s right, I didn’t just buy a bodycon dress with a reindeer on the front of it. I also bought one with a penguin on it too. Honestly if this one had sleeves I would probably wear it for all of December. Black is much easier to wear than bright red and it’s all stretchy
