I recently bought these H&M trousers in their sale for £6.00! Bargain! They are perfect for day to night Christmas party wear! Throw on some party shoes and some bling and this outfit goes from day to night soo perfectly!
Do you like my brooch? I received this in the post this week as a little pre-Christmas gift from the lovely Faye the designer behind Wired Jewellery. Go check her stuff out she has some STUNNING copper designs coming your way! LOVE her stuff! - good prices too, which is important!
Watching ELF tonight with a bunch of friends, getting in the Christmas mood! Then I have a couple of Christmas parties this weekend and I am going to a grand total of TWO Christmas Carol Services on Sunday! I am going to be soooooo festive come Monday!
Bring on the Christmas cheer!
Love & Peacexoxo Clare Astra xoxo

This was the very.co.uk blogger Christmas party day, when we got to pick an outfit to wear and style ourselves in, then have a little photo shoot!
It was sooo much fun! The very.co.uk girls are sooo lovely and we were looked after so well!
I got to meet some fab bloggers AND was allowed to take one item of clothing home! I went for the rust blouse of course! It was such a lovely fit and the cut is gorgeous! Will do an outfit post in it soon! Looking forward to getting the professional pics back to show you guys!
Hope your week is going well so far!
Love & Peace
