For Christmas Day I wore my H&M polka dot dress which I featured a few posts ago, pictured above with the headband my brother bought me, which matches the rosette on my dress perfectly! I have to admit I was a bit gutted when I picked this up to see it was a size 16, but the label inside says it's a European size 42 which is normally a 14, so I calmed myself somewhat (but still vowed to start a new exercise regime!). I love the shape of this dress and wanted to take some photos of it in the snow but it was about -6 and far too cold to stand out there without a coat! I managed to withstand the chill for about 5 seconds, in which Naty took this photo of my other sister Minnie (mental in just a cardie) and I which kind of show how the skirt flares out, very 50s-style!

It's Christmaaaaaaas!
Continuing the polka dot theme, Santa left me some adorable polka dot socks in my stocking, so I teamed them with my brogues to keep my feet warm. I explained my polka dots by telling everyone they reminded me of snowflakes...which we had more than enough of on Christmas Eve, making the roads here extremely dangerous and we couldn't spend Christmas with my aunt and cousins! Sad times!
Make-up-wise I stuck to my classic winged liner look with a red lip - which I shall be posting more on later! How do you usually style yourself for Christmas? We always dress up a little bit, mostly because we've usually received some pretty presents that need wearing!
