Outfit of the Night

What I Wore:

Top - H&M

Boots - H&M

Jeans - Sissy Boy
Ear-Piece - H&M

Leather Jacket - YDE

Silver Necklace - St. Christopher
Leather Handbag - Somewhere in Venice

I have fallen so in love with my top, which is a find from H&M about a month ago. Beyonce wears it in one of their fashion shoots... see, see, right there: 

...ANYWAY...

In light of my good friend Rene's going away party last night, I took the opportunity to dress up and go a little bit cray-cray on the dance-floor. Because, well... why not? It has been a while since I have been able to have some quality time with two of my closest friends: Coco and Rene. 

Also, as you can CLEARLY tell from my previous post, it has been a while since I consumed alochol too........ scouts honor!

We went to a local club in town called Zanzibar where a live band called Zebra & Giraffe were playing. We had such a wonderful evening of dancing and having the usual far too deep heart-to-hearts once a few drinks were in us - we all got pretty emotional about Rene leaving but at the same time we are all so happy for her too. The town we live in is really small and when you're in your twenties, there really isn't much in the way of opportunities over here. So, she has taken the plunge into the big wide open world and moving to a big city! I am so proud of her and wish her all the best for the future - may we always remain close friends and see each other often.

So raise your wine glasses, Bloggers'... to one of the most wonderful, kind-hearted ladies I have ever had the pleasure of meeting: 

Rene

On that note... here are a few shots (the photographic sense of the word... not the drink! Thank God...) of our night out and what it all entailed, parental guidance is advised. Not suitable for photo sensitive viewers. Also.... you may possibly get nightmares..... just saying:

As you can see, it all started off with us acting pretty socially acceptable - some slight gangster-tivity going on but on a whole things were going great with our new found friend, Marnus.

Add a live band, a few more drinks and a shooter or two and this is the outcome: 

(Definitely not Sugar, Spice and Everything Nice..... the ingredients chosen to create the perfect little girls!!)

Bubbles. Buttercup. And Blossom??? See the resemblance? It's uncanny!!!

"Blossom, commander and the leader 

Bubbles, she is the joy and the laughter 

Buttercup, she's the toughest fighter 

Powerpuffs save the day... 

Fighting crime, trying to save the world 

Here they come just in time, the Powerpuff Girls 

Fighting crime, trying to save the world 

Here they come just in time, the Powerpuff Girls 

Powerpuff!" 

Seriously.. we deserve our own TV show with this shit!

We did manage to get one or two decent enough looking shots in the mix though, but they aren't nearly as much fun. I've added them in though so that you can see that we aren't completely and utterly bonkers.... No. Wait. We still are... regardless:

So... to conclude this fashion gone wrong post of the day.... this is my analysis of the night:

Before:

After:

Our alter-egos were set free. Yep. I think I pretty much nailed this one. 

Outfit of the Day

 

 

It's not often that I suffer from 'major' hangovers. I always know when enough is enough and believe that a glass of red wine every night is good for your heart! That is my theory and I am sticking with it!

 

Well, the morning after these photographs were taken.... my head felt like it was exploding.

 

It was a Thursday evening and because my work schedule always varies, I was off the following day! So, naturally, I ordered a bottle of wine to share with my friend Claire while we caught up in our regular bar.

 

We depleted the bottle of wine and went on to order more by the glass! To make matters worse, I hadn't had time for dinner as I arrived at the bar directly after work.

That was my big mistake.

 

I vow from here on in to NEVER drink on an empty stomach!!!

 

My one day off was spent with me feeling very sorry for myself, nursing a mother of a hangover at home - but it was a fab evening and I got to see a friend I hadn't seen in months!

 

I loved my outfit. The pink jacket was from a store in Amsterdam. I'll have to check the label inside to give you the designer if interested but I loved the cut and the color and pretty much everything about the jacket!

 

I also got to break out my beautiful Guess heels (which I can barely walk in...) for the first time all year.
