Christmas Day Black ‘n White Dress

So I haven’t dropped off the face of the earth – but I did decide to enjoy a little break from blogging over Christmas!

It just so happened that I had a stinking cold as well, but that’s mostly gone now thank goodness… no illness for as long as I can remember and then I come down with something on Christmas Eve. Typical!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and had a chance to relax, eat lots of delicious food and hopefully do a little giving and receiving too. I was a really lucky girl this year, and some of the lovely things I got from loved ones will be making appearances on the blog soon enough.

As my family always get super-duper dressed up on the 25th, I still made an effort despite my sore throat and fuzzy head and decided to wear an old favourite – this Karen Millen dress I bought several years ago, but one I’ve not worn on Christmas Day before. I added a couple of new extras I treated myself to just before Christmas: the pretty feather headband and these amazeballs tights from ASOS: how great are they?! I love how the pattern is on both the front and the back of the tights.

Hope you all enjoy the rest of your Christmas break, whatever holidays you have left. I’ll be back on the case with visiting everyone over the weekend… I have some catching up to do with you all 🙂

29/12/12 P.S. Anyone else think this would make a fabulous and quite modern bridesmaid’s dress/outfit? I think the addition of the feather headband made me think bridesmaid but only when I saw the photos. It would be a nice alternative to the usual dresses that I’m usually not keen on…
