Season of the little black dress

Christmas often poses as the time of year known for the party dresses, a bold red lip and minimal eye make-up, and this year is no different. In my family, it's a tradition that we dress up for Christmas day and not ones to lay about in trackies. But then it comes to the same old question of "what am I going to wear on Christmas day?" When I was little, that was simple as Santa often bought me a pretty dress which I would be dying to wear, but now my Mum has reached the stage of not knowing what I want in terms of clothes, so that decision is left to me. I've put together a collection of dresses that are my this years competitors (I think). They are all LBD, as I can then take the opportunity to wear them again.

It's come to my attention that while writing a blog I'm coming to have to over come my fear of close up pictures. Thankfully while only using my phone as my camera at the moment due to the loss of the camera charger (I must tidy my room) photo quality is too poor to see me properly! 

I'm rarely a girl to just wear jeans a t-shirt. Zara jeans fit me perfectly but I just don't think they ever look very good! And today was no different. It was drizzling this morning so my initial thoughts turned to footwear. What ever I wore would have to be leather. While I was mulling over an outfit to wear with a pair of studded boots I was running late so decided to do make-up first.

Make-up:
Pore Professional by Benefit
Oxygen Wow foundation (sample) by Benefit
Get Even powder by Benefit
Dior crayon eyeliner
Masterpiece Max Factor mascara 
"Strong Women" MAC lipstick
Universal Contour Dior lip-liner

Outfit:

Deep red thigh spilt skirt - TKMaxx

Black scoop neck top - Tesco

Denim Jacket - Newlook

Long Gold earrings - Mango

Gold sweetie ring - Links of London

Black Toy watch

Michael Kors Black Tote

I'm yet to own a black leather jacket which I think would have looked better with this outfit. 

I put my hair in a high messy bun to avoid it going frizzy in the rain. 

What did you wear today?
