Christmas Party Outfit: Sexy Sparkle Skirt

Hello!

I was rummaging through my drawers this morning, clearing away some of the clothes I haven't worn for a while and I stumbled across my sparkly vintage skirt. Given to me by my future sister in law, Flora, a little while back it's a perfect little number for the Christmas party.

Check out H&M's version here. 

Here's my 3 different looks:

 Look 1 a plain white vest top, J crew biker boots and my vintage leather jacket. The vintage earrings add some more colour and sparkle- so important for Christmas!

 Look 2, is my Hobbs shirt, vintage blazer and vintage brogues. Topshop and Asos have some fab brogues at the moment.

Look 3, is my boyfriends plain black t shirt with the sleeves cut off and the neck line altered. Such an easy thing to do and I think adds a bit of rock to an outfit. Worn with my Guess fur jacket and my Laboutins.



Which look is your favourite?

Christmas Gift Idea Number 3; Faux Fur Coats

 Topshop £75

So rock 'n roll, I love the shape and the colours of this faux fur. I can wear this with my jeans or over my shoulders with a simple black dress and biker boots. Warm too.

 H&M 50% off £50

Great value, its now in the sale. H&M always has very reasonable versions of the latest trends. Such a safe bet having a look in there before you spend a lot of money on something similar in another store. I prefer to wear this in a size smaller than I normally would.

 Karen Millen 20% off £350

I walked past this dalmatian print in the window and I had come back to try it on. Imagine it with a pair of black jeans and a white t shirt and black biker boots or stilettos. You can also rock it up with a black fedora hat.

 Warehouse £20 off £95

I like the cream colour and the 'ruffled' fur. Very warm and so cute.

FAUX FUR COATS!! They are back and at a discounted price in most high street shops. 

Make sure you pick up one of these for a Christmas present. I know I would LOVE one. Especially the cream colour.....that is my favourite. They are prefect for the freezing temperature we are moving into now.

See my other post with more cool jackets you MUST HAVE.

Good luck shopping!! 

Happy Saturday!

Christmas Gift Idea Number 2: Embellished Shirts

Here's a round up of my favourite  embellished shirts on the high street to make your Christmas shopping easier.

 Urban Outfitters £42

Review: A good fit in the length of body and sleeves. Love the shape of the collar and subtle use of jewels at the collar tips. It has a cowgirl theme, which I like.

 Urban Outfitters  £40

Review: this loose, silk sleeveless shirt has unique triangular studs on the collar, which I really like. Cool to have sleeveless, quite rocky. It is a bit see-through so be smart about your underwear.

 Marks and Spencer's  £35

Review: a green silk shirt with sequins on the shoulders and wrists. Hangs nicely and I like the simpleness of the details. Doubtful the colour is everyones cup of tea.  Good price and you can guarantee not many people will be wearing it as it is unique.

Marks and Spencer's  £35

Review: a white silk shirt with sequinned details on the shoulders and wrists. Again a cute and simple design. An alternative colour to wear than the green above. 

New Look  £24.99

Review: A soft denim shirt with gold studs on the shoulders. I love this loose fitted, relaxed denim shirt and it hangs well. Perfect with a pair of blue denim jeans. I prefer to wear the sleeves rolled up and the collar undone for a more informal look. I like the pockets on the front too.

You have to pick one of these up as a Christmas gift asap!

I think these embellished shirts have that little something else to what would normally be 'just another shirt' making them perfect for presents for your girlfriend, sister, mum and aunt etc. You name it, there are different styles for all ages.

It's all about collars at the moment, so be sure to do up all those buttons on your shirts to really make the most of the shape of the collar.

It's quite difficult to navigate around Wordpress. Visually I prefer it but if I'm honest it seems to be taking a bit longer to add the photos and put them in the right order....I'm sure like everything with practice I will find it easier.

Christmas Gift Idea Number 1: Logo tops

 Topshop 'Owww' logo t shirt

£18

Review

Pro's: Slightly looser than the 'Geek' t shirt, which feels more comfortable for me. Love the pink wording against the blue. Nice rolled up sleeves

 Topshop 'Geek' logo t- shirt

£18

Review

Pro's: Love the blue and white together, and like the placement and font of the lettering. The rolled up short sleeves add a nice touch and make it very cute.

 Urban Outfitters

£45

Review

Pro's: Simple and stylish logo. Has the 90's vibe, very edgy and 'street'. It's my favourite colour, black. I can wear this with anything, so a good investment.

H&M logo vest top

£9.99

Review

Pro's : Simple use of colour and print. I like the white and black together, and it's hangs nice and loose. Is perfect to wear with jeans and a pair of biker boots. Very me. Such a good price it doesn't matter if I only wear it a few times and never again!

I have been living in slight denial about the time left until Christmas. I hadn't seem it come around until wham! It hit me smack,bang in the face today. There's fake snow on Bond St?! Christmas lights everywhere I turn, in every shop window and not to mention the faux fern trees and little santa's giving me the stare.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining, I love the build up to Christmas! I never get to celebrate as much as this...ever! And it's not even my birthday! Jesus Christ! Yes, it's him! He's responsible for us staying out late in the week and waking up with a headache and feeling ok about it because, "Everyones doing it....What's the 'ish? "

To make things easy for you I have come up with a series of ideas for presents and will be uploading them daily, so be sure to follow by email or go to Bloglovin and follow 'thelondonmodelcitizen' there!

I hope you enjoyed the first in my series of "Christmas Gifts Ideas". Logo tops; ideal for any of your friends, your girlfriend, your sister, your cousin, teacher...? They are fun and adorable and really quite cool. They wont break the bank either!

What are you filling up your stockings with this 

Christmas?
