No matter what, every winter season we see the re-emergence of those shiny little discs in all shapes and sizes. The reason being is that they're just so darn versatile and easy to wear (just add a pair of jeans and/or sky high heels and away you go...). And perfect for the lazy accessorizer like myself, you just need to let the sequins speak for themselves.

N.B. This is my vintage lace underskirt (it's maxi length), not a net curtain. I intend to wear it as a skirt with a bodycon mini skirt underneath. Nice.

Pucci, eat ya heart out.

Got this beauty for only £4.50 from the St. Peter's Hospice towards the top of Blackboy Hill. It was such a low price (compared to the £12 four-year-old Topshop dresses etc) as apparently only a 'certain type' would be interested in something like this. I guess I'm that type then.
