New Year is approaching...

... So I thought I'd say goodbye to this one by featuring these amazing Les Chiffoniers PVC leggings, £195, which really epitomise the deliciously dark fashion season we've experienced this winter:

Meanwhile, I'm embracing the new season with acid pink nails (pink is the colour of the new spring season, but only the vibrant shades). Use Rimmel 60 Seconds nail polish in "Shocker" to get the look.

Insane.

So I hit the post-Christmas sales the other day for the first time in my life. Selfridges was my shop of choice, and I just happened to go on Boxing Day, which turned out to be insane. There was a queue that lasted the length of the entire shop (and round the corner) just to get into Gucci. Hence why I usually avoid such sales, but the recessional discounts were just too tempting.

Here's a set of Princesse Tam-Tam underwear I snapped up for just £20:

Amongst other things, I managed to grab some Guerlain Golden Lash Mascara Top Coat (at the minuscule price of £5). This stuff is genius - use on the tips after black mascara for some subtle glamour or apply several coats to bare lashes for an ethereal look.
