Happy Birthday To MEEEEEE!

Wednesday 23 January 2013

It was my (insert age of your choice here) birthday on Monday, and I got some amazing gifts from some amazing friends; including a Game Of Thrones boxset from Ally, an ever so cool What I Wore Today book, Meadham Kirchhoff Nail Rock wraps and cute earring goodness from Carly (to be seen in future posts!), humungous Katy Perry Meow perfume set from my future sis-in-law, RPatz Eleven Paris tee from Daddy, a fierce Topshop studded heart bag from TBug and loads of other pressies like Amazon vouchers, jewelz, lovely jubbly smellies and cashola from all my favourite people :)

I took a few of my fave wearable gifts; an adorable River Island leopard print sweater from BFF Stephy,  a totally amazing The Ragged Priest coat from Tara (be jealz entire world) and River Island pvc trousers and Steve Madden boots from my lavahhhhhh BF, and went for a play outside in the snow - huzzah!

The COAT. What can I say, T really excelled with this one! It's absolutely gorgeous and totally me. I am particularly loving the gold studs because my other studded jacket has silver ones so having both colour options makes Jade a happy girl. Even my fringe is flicking with giddiness.


Being surrounded by the height of winter, whilst sweltering in pvc trousers is a strange and unusual experience, but one I recommend. The jumper is so cute with a perfect leo pattern (I'm particular and my bestie knows this), and is a rather flattering size 10. I can always count on Steph to boost my ego ;)


The peace sign beanie is Wildfox Couture, from about 2 years ago. I kind of bought it, then somehow forgot about it for 2 winter's, then found it still tagged and nestling between two SpiritHoods in December last year. Oops, but hurrah for it's new lease of life in 2013!


I fell for the River Island trousers last year, stupidly hesitated to buy them and then discovered they had sold out, so imagine my RPatz WTF face when I found them on a local store sale rack for £10! Imagine my further surprise when BF took them off me at the checkout and paid for them! Tom Cruise air punch. He'd already bought me these much coveted Steve Madden boots (oh the gold studding of it all!) so the trousers were the cherry on top of a very yummy birthday!


I had a quite simply marvellous birthday weekend so a big thanks to everyone reading who contributed to that, and I'm looking forward to littering future posts with my newbie bits and pieces! In the immortal words of my mum, ooooooh I did well! Right, I'm off to document this outfit in my What I Wore Today book ;)
