HEY EVERYONE!!!
I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and enjoyed yourself extensively!!
I had my family Christmas yesterday and O M G it did not disappoint.
I ate too much, danced too much and laughed too much.
There is actually a video of me doing Gangnam Style and no I'm not proud.
I did feel sick when I got home yesterday and for some reason it's continued on and I hate it.
I have no appetite and it's horrible!!
But apart from that I had a good Christmas.
Anyway...
Just a quick post today!!
This was me on Christmas Day at my Nan.J's.
Now as I said earlier my big family Christmas was yesterday, so on Christmas day we popped in to see my Nan.J to swap presents. I'm not lying when I say my parents had to kick me up on xmas morning; because I didn't want to especially after my sleepless night. Yes they keep happening and no I don't know why!?!?!?!?!?! When I eventually got out of bed I woke up to a bag full of presents, which of course is always nice. My parents opened theirs first as Charlie and I got them Kindle's and were expecting them to kill us. I am thankfully still alive so all is good. They love them but haven't played with them yet. Charlie and I got round to ours and wrapping paper was flying everywhere, tear after tear till presents were revealed underneath. Ok so I'm exaggerating a little but we do tear our presents (well the wrapping paper). I got a range of presents including a Tweetie Pie onesie, Disney princess nightlight, Lauren Conrad - Beauty, BradGoreski - Born to Brad, a book on the letters in WW2, a matching leaf necklace and ring and a bead bracelet, manicure kit and a mini brush kit (I'm probably forgetting half of it). I got the most amazing Audrey Hepburn compact mirror from my next door neighbours, and I love it!! My next door neighbour Mags knows me so well, in fact the mirror I use at the moment is from her and it has a 50's inspired New York picture on it. We eventually got dressed and headed to my Nan.J's where the gifts happened all over again. I got three Rimmel lipsticks, two are the Lasting Finish Kate Moss Matte range and the other is a Lasting Finish (I think). I also got money which is good; as I've accidentally gone through my pay check (oops). We spent some time at my Nan's for a while and then headed home in to our xmas jammies, and settled in for the night. Yesterday at my family Christmas I also got socks, slipper socks, manicure set (my nails should look flawless), money and a One4all gift card from my Uncle Steve. I've been thoroughly spoiled.
To the outfit...
I wanted to wear this dress on Christmas Day as it's a classic dress to wear. I admit if I stood sideways you would see some lumps and bumps; but like this (straight on) I look as fabulous and curvaceous as Christina Hendricks (who am I kidding she's amazing). This is such a flattering shape for anyone especially if you do have curves. Now you know I'm the first one to moan about the lumps and bumps, but in this dress I don't mind because it is so flattering. It's a good material and although I'm not someone who wears a lot of grey; I do like this dress as the marl effect breaks up the colour. Plus it’s only a tenner!! I teamed it with my Shoe Zone Chelsea Boots and my Forever 21 bag. This bag had its first outing on xmas day and I think it was a nice accessory for this dress. I added my Miss Selfridge Jesus studs (as it was his birthday) and my ASOS Solid Cross Necklace. I look very ladylike. I do have my hair up as I couldn't be bothered to wash my hair (it is washed now); but I constantly wear my hair up at the moment. I love having a ponytail or a bun, makes me feel like a pretty ballerina!!
I've had a good Christmas and I hope you all have had one too. 
You won't see an OOTD for yesterday as I looked like a dorky 90's throwback; but my jumper is on my Instagram BeckyEAllen (on the right had side).
I'm now relaxing watching a programme on Stirling Moss!!
I'm having serious car envy!!
Time for me to get back behind the wheel again.
Wish me luck...
