At an Arcadia Christmas edit...

Walk around in ore for at least an hour, look for price tags and then remember your not actually shopping and these items are not actually for sale. Esh kapesh. 
The whole event tested our will power. It took everything in us not to whip off our boring clothes and change into all the lovely, beautiful Christmas editions. Our eyes... sparkled as we looked around the room. Not only at the scrumptious clothes, but there was a cocktail bar... and canapés. Dare I say it, our fav type of food. Lots of it in small form. What could be better. A mini canapé burger is obviously only 20 calories, no need to calorie count at this do.
Whilst we sipped our cookies and cream Cocktail from a mini milk bottle (obviously making it taste ten times better) we sort through rails of Topshop, Miss self ridge,  Wallis, Bhs... and we tingled with joy... why the heck wasn't it Christmas yet.

Here's a breakdown of a few of our favs and what they will have on offer...

Topshop
Navy, fur, long gowns, grey, jumpers, Co ordinates and .... galore.

Miss selfridge
A Sparkles and vintage affair.

Wallis
Creams, pastels, nudes, pretty girly pieces to have you looking chic through the whole party season.

On Christmas day

Christmas is just as exciting for us as it was when we were younger. Ok, so maybe now we don't rush out of bed to the gifts under the tree (who are we kidding- we do, but all be it with a heavy groggy head from too much prosecco the night before). Although we may not check to see if Santa has left some crumbs and drank all his milk (whiskey and drink driving was never encouraged in our household), we don't check for crumbs because of course there are, always, and there's a half eaten carrot that Rudolf ate (I always wondered why the other reindeers never got fed...) Anyway, Christmas for us is still just as magical as it was years ago. A chocolate orange, some much needed time with the family and perhaps that new mac lippie you have been after or even the new boots you have had on your Pinterest list for ages... Christmas is freaking awesome!
