Saving commences now. I justified the fact that sterling prices work out cheaper to go on a little internet spree for myself last night. How annoying is it that the euro prices in shops are not a direct conversion, instead they are way more expensive? Also the fact that they have stopped showing both prices on tags so you can't compare. Topshop just rip off the sterling prices from the end of the tag, you can clearly see it. And River Island have started putting stickers over them. You used to be able to see both prices and compare, which is something I used to do a lot.
Anyway
Topshop
ASOS
And I bought these today:

[EDIT] I was in Tophop today (no harm in looking!), and noticed a rail of dresses, all of which had the ends of their tags ripped off, except for one. The Sterling price was 29 pounds. The euro price was 44!! That's what, a good tenner extra, conversion included, at least! Is there a reason for this?? It seems shopping online is the way forward!

put on that dress i'm going out dancing starting off red clean and sparkling
I've never needed a steady income more. Topshop are launching their new collection of dresses entitled Dress Up on April 14th and I want them all. I can't wait to see how ridiculous the prices are gonna be, but ohhh, aren't they pretty?

A Very General Post
Happy New Year! I'm not back to college for another week, so still being in my pyjamas at half three in the afternoon is totally acceptable. I'll start the whole resolutions/priorities in line thing next week. It'll be the usual, eat better, exercise more, achieve outstanding results in college (!). Also sort out what the hell I'm going to do in september, to post-grad or not to post-grad.
New Year's was good fun. I wore this dress and had found great enjoyment out of the wing sleeves once I'd gotten a few drinks in me.
Further thoughts on resolutions: Do something or go somewhere I've never done/been before once a week. I'd say a day but I doubt I'd be able for that level of commitment. Also clean my bedrooms, at home and in the flat.
I was looking back over previous posts earlier (which took all of five minutes, I'll add posting regularly to the list), and I mentioned something about wanting snow this winter. HA. I got that wish didn't I? A solid month of freezing weather just over and apparently there's more on the way. Enough already! Friends abroad almost didn't make t home for Christmas, but should than themselves lucky they weren't one of the ten people who ended up having to sleep in Dublin Aiport on Chritsmas night, along with countless others in airposts all over Europe.
Back to reality next week, but for now I'm happy on the couch in my pyjamas, laptop and dvd player within reach and my pile of Christmas reading.
