Topshop's Topdog This Christmas!

Happy Thanksgiving Bloggers! (For yesterday!!)
Despite being proud to be British, the Americans have taken many of my loves from the UK including Simon Cowell and good ole Earl Grey, so I decided I fancied hopping aboard the thankful train myself! So for the next week I am going to add to my posts, what I am thankful for! Drum roll please....

Today I am thankful for.....TOPSHOP!

I know it must be easy to acknowledge the obvious love we have for Topshop...but this season’s collection is truly gorgeous. Combining the ultimate’s in luxury, femininity and impeccable style with that all important extra touch of je ne sais quoi...it is remarkably endearing with charming little details that add the bit of sparkle fondly associated with Christmas.


These Wedges are FABBBBB...£130

Crushed velvet jackets, baby doll scoop neck dresses, regal jewel embellishments, prints, feathers, lace and leather components, all feature enough Christmas bedazzle to light Oxford Circus all on its own! The dresses are vaguely reminiscent of ice skaters (in the Olympics as opposed to the local ice rink!) - Body con, dolly skirts, sequins and glam with bags of jazzy sparkleyness! Take a look at these beauties...

            Feather £75               Sequin £85              Leather £75


                                                  Velvet Dress £38

The only major let down for me was by the supposed fashion guru herself, Kate Moss, whose collection borderline offends me! Its dull, irrelevant and inappropriate for the seasons shenanigans! Aside from 2 glitzy numbers which will suffice for party festivities, the rest include Victorian maxi dresses, Chinese prints and fishnet bras (?!) and if it's not fashion blasphemy enough...its predominantly made up from....viscose and polyester! no no no!


Speaking of bad taste....Katie Price is officially out of the jungle this week! (weyyyy) At least that’s something in the UK we can be unanimously be thankful for! Go Team Andre! Is is just me or are they starting to become the only subject that bores us more than a cupboard full of low fat rice cakes!?
