Christmas Jumper Picks

Who doesn't love a Christmas jumper? Personally, I think mid November is a good time to start rocking the Christmas jumper to start getting into the Christmas spirit nice and early. 

This year is no different to any other in that there are sooo many to choose from - there are cute ones, funny ones, slogan ones, sparkly ones... the list is endless.

Here are a few of my favourites that I've found. Now the only problem is which ones to actually buy... Which one's your favourite?  

1st Row  Little Miss Christmas Knitted Jumper £39.99 | Truffle Shuffle // Skating Penguin Jumper £26 | Dorothy Perkins // December 25th Sweater £42 | Topshop

2nd Row Jessie Reindeer Jumper £20 | Boohoo // Fluffy Sequin Bow Christmas Jumper £27.99 | New Look // Christmas Snowman Jumper £28 | M&S

3rd Row Holidays Are Coming Christmas Jumper £29.99 | Truffle Shuffle // Red Christmas Tree Jumper £26 | Dorothy Perkins //Reindeer Christmas Jumper £35 | Asos

Fashion 5 | New Look Sale Must Buys

So what's better on a Sunday morning than browsing the internet doing some sale shopping?  Nothing I hear you say.  I couldn't agree more.  The only problem is where to sale shop.

I sat up in bed (yes that's right, it should definitely be done in bed) and wondered where to start first.  Then New Look popped into my head.  Now I hadn't shopped at New Look for quite a while but I went in the other week birthday shopping for my sister and there were so many pieces I'd love to have bought for myself. (I behaved and only bought my sister a present - I have willpower!)  So there it was, my answer.  I'll sale shop at New Look.  It's already cheap as chips anyway so the sale stuff must be a bargain I thought. And I was right.

I'm clearly feeling very pink / peachy today as these were my top 5 picks. I bought my sister a skort in the same pattern as the dress which I didn't realise until afterwards but never mind.   

 

1 Wedges was £27.99 now £13 | 2 Dress was £22.99 now £15 | 3 Kimono was £24.99 now £12 |

4 Skirt was £12.99 now £6 | 5 Top was £29.99 now £12

Fashion 5 | Topshop Orange Summer 2014

Hola Sparkly1s

I have an odd relationship with orange. I just have never really got to grips with it.  I don't like orange sweets or orange flavouring and I don't like orange clothes... that is until I found these beauties when I was browsing on Topshop.  I just had to put together a Fashion 5!

 

 Orange is definitely a pick-me-up kinda colour.  I challenge anyone to be miserable whilst wearing such a bright, happy colour.   I can definitely see the midi skirt (number 1) teamed with a plain, simple vest top and the fabulous statement collar necklace (number 2).  Ooo I just want them all!    

1 Skirt £34 | 2 Necklace £18.50 | 3 Shorts £50 | 4 Dress £32 | 5 Jumpsuit £45

 

 

 

Is there any colour clothing you don't really wear?  Which one's your favourite piece?

 

 



Asos Dress Haul

Hola Sparkly1s

A while ago I did a Fashion 5 | Asos Swing Dresses post about my favourite swing / skater style dresses. I find the style really flattering as I'm an optimistic size 10 (otherwise known as a 12) apple shape. As an apple shape I like to show of my legs as they're definitely my best feature.

I had a little Asos haul recently so I thought I'd share my purchases with you.  The links to the dresses are below each one.

Asos Swing Dress in Acid Wash £18

 

River Island Chelsea Girl Flower Dress £25

Asos Swing Dress in Big Flower Lace £32

Asos Swing Dress in Floral Border Print £22

 

 

Asos Print Large Pleat Shift Dress £40 reduced to £20

 

Asos Sleeveless Swing Dress with Pussybow £22

Swing Dress with Short Sleeve £22 reduced to £13

 

Which ones your favourite?  I think mine's the one with the birds on. 

Have you shopped at Asos lately?  What did you buy?

 

 

 

 

Primark Haul | YouTube

Hola Sparkly1s

I've only gone and done a YouTube video haven't I!  I've wanted to start a You Tube channel for ages now but I didn't have the recording equipment so when I got my Canon 700D it was only a matter of time before I bit the bullet and went for it.

 

YouTube is a scary thing.  Here on a blog it's quite easy to hide behind the written word but out there in the scary YouTube world you're there for all to see. 

 

I'm not completely new to YouTube.  Some of you may know that I already have a gaming YouTube channel (I'm a huge Minecraft fan!) but this being in front of the camera is a whole new experience for me.

This channel (Gemzicle Sprinkles), is going to be all my girlie stuff - hair, make-up, clothes, hauls and loads more.  Go ahead and check it out.

 

If the embedded video isn't working for you HERE'S the direct link to YouTube.

 

I hope you enjoy, please give the video a like and if you'd like to subscribe, I'll love you forever!

 

Are you on YouTube?  Let's share the love - link your channel down below.

Fashion 5 | Asos Swing Dresses

I love a swing / skater style dress. 

As a size 12 typical apple shape i.e I carry all my weight round my tummy, I find them perfect.  They show off my slim(ish) legs and cover my belly.  Yet fit slightly on top so I'm not looking like a big sack of potatoes. 

What do you think of these 5 I've picked out from Asos?  I think number 1 is my favourite.  I love the print and the simple black and white.
