Day 828 - Mama Told Me Not To Waste My Life


Shoes: Red velvet 'Lillie' cherry Topshop 

Hello, still not got round to editing my outfit from a week past Sunday (!), but here is my look today. I would wear this dress pretty much every day if I could and for today I decided to team it with my lovely cherry platforms from Topshop, which I don't think have been worn since the Christmas before last. They are super, super pretty. I've just about finished my Monster High Monday makeup post on Pink Haired Princess which involved bright red lips and a purpley smokey eye as you can see, a little different from what I'd usually wear (the lipstick was crazy bright in the flesh)!

Wearing: Heart 'Betty' dress Swan by Clements Ribeiro, black tights and coat Primark, belt Dorothy Perkins.
Fit: True to size, the ankle strap is particularly small but fine for me in the last hole. Heel 5 6/8", platform 1 1/2".
Comfort: No problems, quite high though so not for everybody.

  3. Superb photo quality in the full length shot today, and I have been waiting and waiting for you to wear these shoes again I looooove them! Am I right that you have them in black too? I have to say I am gutted that since you've had problems with posting photos (which you blogged about on PHP 6th of Feb) I now can't view your pictures in my Google Reader app on my phone. I follow a lot of blogs and your two are the only ones I have this problem with. It's such a shame cos your posts are often picture-heavy (which I LOVE by the way), I spend long hours working away from home and when I forget a book or magazine reading blogs on my phone helps get me through! Love you and love the shoes :) xxx

    1. Thank you, the full length/mirror images aren't usually very good as I have to take them without the flash and if there's not much daylight (the mirror is in the hall between rooms) then they come out fuzzy or dark.

      Oh poor you, you've been waiting a long time to see the shoes again! Yes, I do have them in black too, just as lovely.

      As for the images issue, I'm not sure why that is, but I'm very glad you've brought it to my attention as I only access my blogs via Chrome on my home PC. I still use Photobucket to upload my images to the blog, so the linking aspect is the same as it's always been. Google have been experiencing trouble with image upload for the past 2 weeks, but all it means is I have to upload one image at a time (used to be 5), so that shouldn't affect anything else (it's just troublesome for me). The html code is slightly different than usual though...as they seem to be testing some new system, I wonder if it's related to that, although surely it would affect other blogs you go on? I've already contacted them regarding the upload nuisance and they say it's a 'known issue' and will be fixed, but who knows when? Grr!
