Irregular Choice Festive Footwear: Day 10

No idea where the time has gone today. I felt I started off very productively and then the rest of the day disappeared. I'm going to try *try* and get ahead of myself this weekend with posts for my Christmas blogs. I thought locating images from years ago, many I haven't even shared here before, would be less work than taking new ones. It's less strenuous physically, but going back years of folders isn't exactly a quick process! Anyway, I have an item today that I ordered, but wasn't originally mine, yet found it's way back into my possession. Read to the bottom for your online treat, click to read my new Christmas beret post from yesterday if you missed it and my Festive Beauty blog on Pink Haired Princess will be up later. Phew!

This is the Irregular Choice Christmas Is Love Bag. It launched in 2018 and I ordered it for my sister as I thought she'd use it. She did, until 2019 when The Kringles bag came out and she literally whipped that out the box, out of the bag, off with the tags, strap attached and claimed it as hers before I got anything else out of the parcel. She said she didn't need the original one anymore, so I got that in exchange!  It features the applique faces of Mr & Mrs Claus that I know I've mentioned a few times already on these blogs, that I love so much.  They really have the cutest faces though.

It's not a bag shape/size done often by IC, certainly I think it's the only clutch style bag I have from them this size. It does come with a strap. Whilst it's quite big, it's very flat, so you can't fit loads of bulky things in there.

I've only used it once I think (above), for the Christmas Eve Christingle service at church in 2019 because of course last year I wasn't out and won't be this year either. Actually I have my booster booked for the week before Christmas, so that's my last outing this year. I'm getting pretty sick of there to be honest as my dentist is in the same building, so that's the only place I've been this year (4 times so far). That's partly why I wanted to do something on the blogs this year, as I bought so many Christmas things last year that haven't ever had an outing and it just felt like a waste.  Below, you can see how well it works with the other character pieces, such as Santa's Helper I showed you the other day (that's the shoes I wore with it above actually) and The Kringles boots and that's the matching bag my sister stole!
