" Look of the day " LFW FIRST DAY

2012-02-18T10:52:00.000-08:00

Hello guys, this is just a quick post because I need to worry up as I have a dinner party to go too. One of my friend's birthday is today, so as I'm writing to you I'm looking at the watch because it takes hours for me to get read. Im suppose to leave at 8 pm. Don't think that will happen.

This is what I wore to day, I know You guys aren't use to seeing me in black, but I do wear it sometimes. Since I did NOT got the opportunity to be at LFW I have decided to make outfit posts of what I would be wearing at LFW if I was there. This is what I would wear on the FIRST DAY. I hope you like it ;)

This was when the wind show began lol...

" Look of the Day " Pastel Floral Prints Trousers

2012-02-16T08:21:00.000-08:00

Greeting my fellow readers, after a snow storm it was about time that some abundance came :). I think I have already mentioned that I'm not a fan of flats, I'm been honest guys. When it is snowing I can't help but wearing flats. But, now that it's not going to snow (so far it looks like it won't) from today onwards the weather should look much better with the highest being 10C :) anyway.....

As for the look, we all now that prints are all over the the runways this season, but I know that not everyone is onto it mainly because of the boldness of the patterns. Perhaps if you go for something not as bold, sort of like the trousers I'm wearing you will still be on trend and comfortable with what you are wearing (without trying too hard). Its just an idea because I still like the bold/vibrant floral prints but I know its not everyone's cup of tea. I decided to top the look with these sparkly Louboutin's- who said that sparkles can only be worn at night? Not with me! The only point of wearing sparkly things during the day is that when the sun light hits them ..... "Magic happens" making whatever sparkly piece you are wearing justice. NOW! Don't go mad about it, I suggest you wear a piece of item only such: a skirt, a blouse or a clutch. In my case I went for the shoes. ;)

P.S: The photos are actually a little bit dark sorry about that.

" Look of the day " Architectural Shoulders

2012-02-15T12:39:00.000-08:00

Hello my fellow readers! I hope your week is going well. This is what I wore yesterday for valentine's day, I loved it so much that I've decided to recreate the look today so I can take a few photos to show you. Right, you guys probably remember this dress from 2009 Dolce& Gabanna collection or you probably have seen Anna dello Russo wearing a similar one from the same collection and I was lucky enough to own one which I'm truly in love with.
What I love the most about this dress is the architectural shoulders (Oh My!) making this dress beyond interesting, more of an modern chic slash edge and not forgetting the colour (looks great on any skin tone).

Here are some more shoots I took for you too see :)

I was wearing:

Dress by Dolce&Gabbana

Tights from M&S

Shoes by Christian Louboutin Daffodil

Clutch by Alexander McQueen

I wish you a great continuous week

" Look of the day" Saturday Casual

2012-02-12T05:25:00.000-08:00

Hello guys, I hope your all having an amazing weekend.This is what I wore on Saturday, I kept it really simple, more of a casual look to be precise. Sometime don't you just feel like wearing something easy and comfortable? You know, the first thing you lay your eye on you closet? Well this was one of those days. What I like about this look is that everything I'm wearing is not expensive, the coat is on Sale right now and the top and trousers were my best by of 2011. You probably won't believe it but, I bought this top from Zara for £12 and the trousers from Topshop (great materials) for £10 BARGAIN!! hehe

P.S: There is nothing wrong about buying low-end garments. Just don't go around buying things randomly, because they on sale or have been reduced. Look at the material, finishes, fitting- IT'S IMPORTANT (it tells you if something is wroth buying)! You don't want to get something that will not last you long enough or you won't like after a while. Have a look at your priorities (look at your wishlist). But, remember one thing, high-end garments (especial classics) will last you a life time-THAT'S A GUARANTEE, and sale's are a great way to get them :)

I was wearing:

Coat from Aqua by Aqua

Trousers from Topshop

Top from Zara

Earrings from ASOS

Topshop

Print fever are coming to Topshop woohoo!! I personally think it doesn't get any better than this, from retail prices starting at £350 (dresses) there is no doubt you will be getting the Mary Katrantzou vibrant prints trademark for less comparing to the original pieces retailing for over £ 8000 max.

" Look of the day " I’m addicted to Glamour

2012-02-03T14:37:00.000-08:00

Hello everyone, it not been so long since we last spoke :) but I must confess I have missed you...how have you been? Are we looking forward to the weekend? I know I am ;)

This is the look ,which I wore today.To be honest today it been the coldest day so far but no sign of snow yet (not that I'm complaining). There were clear blue skies and the sun actually came out not bad (good for photographs) but, don't let this pictures fool you because it wasn't warm at all! And that's when I say thank God for this fur coat, its really warm and cosy perfect for times like this.
Its a really simple outfit I think anyone can come up with something like it. But, the interesting thing is that I think it is not about the matching items I'm wearing but how I'm wearing them! If I were wearing shoes, for example: a classic peep toes, or pump it would look predictable (boring). I think we should avoid predictability! I like it when you leave people feeling unexpected (so choose the right accessories). And, last but not the least the fur coat, there is nothing better then a fur coat to glamorise the look I'm addicted to Glamour.

Excuse the extra photos on this post I can't help it!:) and wanted to share it all with you guys...I hope you like them as much as I did. lol

I was wearing:

" Look of the day " Feels like Spring

2012-01-26T11:43:00.000-08:00

Hey guys, I hope you been having a great week. Well, this is what I wore today, sometimes I feel like a weather woman since I'm always talking about it haha. But, its just that for me to be able to take photographs I relay a lot on the weather, and as you can see today was a beautiful day :). You probably have already notice that I'm frequently wearing the same pair of earrings? This is because, I LOVE IT SO MUCH lol and I'm the type of girl, that when I like something I wear it till it falls a part :) But, the other reason is that I can't find anything out there like it- anywhere!!! I have even tried the online stores, but as per usual- nothing. I'm on the look out. If any of you perhaps, know an online store that has something like that, don't be shy! leave a comments- I will appreciate it.

Here is some more photos my boyfriend took for me.

"Look of the day" Pre-Spring colour clash

2012-01-24T10:21:00.000-08:00

Hello guys, how is your week going so far? I wish you all the best. This is what I wore today, the weather was so miserable. It's unbelievable. I was hopping on wearing something fun, and colourful. It would have brought the sun out. But, Nah!! It didn't work hehehe. Now, changing subject, you remember this dress, right?(see here). Well, this is just to show you guys how you can still wear something you have worn before. But, in a different way, by keeping it stylish and classy. On the other side of the asymmetric dress, AKA. the top (on this outfit). I am actually wearing a fluffy coat, and because the coat is very flexible (not so heavy), I was able to put it on the other side of my shoulder. I pined it on my bra (so it won't fall off). I nipped it in at the waist with a belt, to secured it (so it won't move). And VoiLa! Job done :)

I Hope you enjoy the shoots taken by Jay my boyfriend.

" Look of the day " Miu Miu shoes and bag

2012-01-22T06:00:00.000-08:00

Hello everybody, how are you doing? This is what I was wearing yesterday, neutral colours with a touch of pink. I'm feeling much better as you can see. The only thing I can think of, that I can't wait to get here, is THE SPRING, its my favourite season of the year.
The shoes I'm wearing I have had them for some time now: I brought them two or three seasons ago, but they're still very current to me. They're one of those statement shoes (the heels to be precise) that instantly glamorises up any look even the simple/effortless looks.
Later on, I changed those beauties for these Leonardos shoes, and they were the right touch of colour that this outfit needed making the overall look a little bit more fun and interesting :)

I was wearing:

Blouse from Zara

Skirt from Zara

Blazer from Zara

2012-01-19T08:36:00.000-08:00

Hello everyone, how have you all been? I have been doing well (if you were wondering). I'm feeling so much better for the past 24 hours (it hit me bad this time). Unfortunately, my immunity system are not quite ready to face the cold weather yet. So, today I have decided to share with you all of my favourites Perfumes at the moment.

Its obvious from the photo above which perfume I use the most, its the CHANEL CHANCE, which is the one I put on when I on the go.

My second Favourite, the one which in fact I have just started using recently, would be the CLASSIQUE by Jean Paul Gaultier, and the next one would be ROSE THE ONE by DOLCE & GABBANA.

Last but not least are the other favourite ones, the COCO MADEMOISELLE from CHANEL and the Flowerbomb Extreme from Viktor & Rolf.

Have a continuous Thursday

" Look of the day " Bringing Sexy Back

2012-01-13T00:06:00.000-08:00

Hello guys, yesterday was one of those days that I just throw on the first thing I find in my closet. I think we all have those days, and that's when a good dress comes just in handy to save the day! I've had this dress since last year, what made me go for it was the feature which made this black little dress a winner for me. The oversized shoulders and the sleeves made this dress a little bit more interesting, in addition It's bringing Sexy Back, just take a look at the rear of this dress. It would be just a normal boring black dress :)

I wore the dress during the day, but obviously you can rock it during the night too. Just by pairing it with gorgeous sexy pumps and a clutch, not forgetting the accessories (that's what brings the outfit together) and your done.

Here are more shots that my sis took of me, I hope you like it:

" Look of the day " Out of the blue

2012-01-06T12:19:00.000-08:00

OK. So, for today's look "out of the blue", I decided to wear something comfortable, yet stylish with a touch of class. You might not agree with this look. As you may not think that it is comfortable, because of the high heels I'm wearing ;) but for me (as you might have already notice), heels are a MUST have (I'm a shoe freak) it just adds glamour instantly without trying too hard- Not forgetting the fact that it adds height. This is something that I always look for in my looks. So be aware ladies invest in a good pair of high heel shoes, and you won't regret it because; even if you are wearing the simplest look (jeans and T- shirt) a good pair of heels will rapidly change everything, taking it to the next level.

I spend the day checking out the sales "again" with my mum and here are some more shoots she took of me. Thank you Mum. Enjoy it guys.

"Look of the day" Its to good to be true

2012-01-05T15:25:00.000-08:00

Hello my fellow readers, how you's 2012 so far? I hope its going well for you so far. I'm really surprised with the weather over here in England, its to good to be true. I still can't believe how I can still get away with wearing just a blazer. But, on the other hand, for the past few days its been really windy during the, day and even worse at night, which made it difficult to capture a good shoot earlier today.

I don't remember the last time I wore a pair of jeans, because its so hard to find one that fit's me properly. So, when I manage to find one I cherish them a lot. As for the bag, I got it the other day and I'm in LOVE, the colour is beautiful it ideal to bring a boring outfits to live, some times it all you need.

2012-01-03T14:22:00.000-08:00

Hello Everyone, first of all- Happy New Year!! :D

I started the year, thinking about what I could do to inspire my fellow readers. I decided that I would try and post 3 looks per week, and now, with the help of my little sister I will start Youtubing a few request's, such as: Look of the Day (How I put the look together), Dressing people of different sizes, Giving a few new fashion tips, and Make up Tips ( this will occur once EVERY month- maybe more), and many many more other requests.

As for today's look of the day, I must admit, I am not really "feeling-it". Its colourful but yet not quite the look I wanted to achieve, I think that it is a little dull and boring. What do you think? But, I felt like I needed to post something for all you Beautiful readers! :)

I will most Definitely be back tomorrow! :D

Thank you very much Beautiful People.

Hello my fellow readers, for those of you that live in the U.K you would know that 26th of December means- SALES! :) Surprisingly, this Christmas/ Boxing day was VERY hot!! I must admit, I would have loved some snow :( I was greatly disappointed! Furthermore, I ADORE buying cheaper outfits as much as the next person, and yesterday I definitely did so. Therefore, I decided to go for this, effortless, yet sophisticated look! :) my colour scheme for yesterday's outfit was Red and Tanned, this was, however, accidental. But, I LOVE IT!

However, I have to admit that I love going to my sister's wardrobe and borrowing a few clothes- I am wearing her Dress, which, I do have also.

Look of the day Sequined one-shoulder dress

2011-12-23T03:32:00.000-08:00

Hello chiquitas, Last night , I mention those who follow me on Tweeter and Facebook, it was my lovely little sister's 16 birthday she was so happy turning sixteen that I had to remind her that " you aren't eighteen... its just sixteen your still NOT allowed to DRINK lol..." and she start laughing. It was definitely a night to remember and she had lots of fun :) love you HEIDI. As for the look of the day, I have chosen to wear this sequined leoperd dress that has been sitting I'm my closet for almost a year now and because I only wore it once I decided it was about time I take this dress for a "spin".

When I first saw this: sparkling, asymmetric, acid-tone, sequin, body-con dress on Neat-A-Porter I had to get it. But, it was't available in my size only the size up but I wanted it so badly, I decided to get it. Even if its a little loose. But, when I tried, it fitted differently due to my curves (I sometimes struggle to find clothes that fit properly because; I'm a pear/ hourglass shape). The waist was loose, but it was just right on the thighs, however not as good on the chest- plus I'm short. You get the idea. I've added four shoulder pads together on the sleeve (It lifted the sleeve, and now it fits better). I also added a thick belt, and for a show-stopping look I went to my local fabric store to get two meters of chifon fabric to add on the dress. I wanted to try it and I think I have achieves the look, wouldn't you agree?

Happy BIRTHDAY Beautiful

One plus one equals two

Its just me and you

Hello everyone, are you having a great weekend? I hope so. Its getting difficult to catch up with the light, because its getting darker very very early here in England. It seems that I go to bed in the dark and wake up in the morning with just a few hours of sunlight. So, I hope the light on the photos are not too dark. As for the look I kept my word, I am finally wearing more colour this winter. I hope I have inspired you. This look can be worn for a night out/dinner by just changing the handbag I'm wearing to a more formal one, such as: clutch.

Enjoy the rest of the photos ;)

Look of the day Black and Red

2011-12-16T14:45:00.000-08:00

Hey guys, today's outfit was inspired by this festive period that we are in right now. I don't know exactly why I love wearing red during this time of the year. It's actually becoming a family tradition now. I guess red puts me into the Christmas mood. My boyfriend actually told me today that I've been wearing to much black lately...The weather these days isn't helping, it's getting colder and colder each day- this makes it difficult to wear colours. Sometimes I feel cosier in black. I hope I'm not the only one that feels this way. But, I'll do my best to bring you some sunshine to bright up your cloudy days :) but honestly, I can't wait till Spring.

* Look of the day * Vintage Fur coat

2011-12-14T11:35:00.000-08:00

Hello everyone, remember when I said that I just got a new vintage fur coat ,and I was looking for a dry-cleaners to have it clean because it stank of old store clothes? well, here it is. What do you thinks? Its my very first vintage fur coat. I could not believe my eyes when I saw the price of this beauty, I instantly feel in love with it and the bell shaped sleeves, that remained me a lot of the 40s/50s (even though I wasn't born on that era) just enough to stand-out off the crowd . I love over-knee hight boots I think it says something about you when you are wearing it like "I'M BAD" or something (ultra-ego perhaps)... you just become a different person, more daring you know what I mean? I hope you do. Also some people say that short women can not wear over-knee hight boots I strongly disagreed because not only does it gives you height by making the legs longer but sexy too and that's what all women are look for, something that is age appropriate, but yet sexy. Am I right ladies?

Enjoy the rest of the photos ;)

I was wearing all black inside the fur coat.

I was wearing:

Fur Coat from Vintage

Dress from Aqua

Jacket from Topshop

Over-knee high boots from Christian Louboutin

Bag from Gucci

Scarf from Vintage

Earrings from Swarovski

Thanks guys

Merry Christmas

Hair

2011-12-14T02:01:00.000-08:00

hey guys, I often get emails asking about my hair and most of the people think I wear weave but I don't. I use 100% Brazillian human hair the best hair in the market and for the technique I call it "BRAZILIAN TEQUINIQUE" AKA The Brazilian Knots which only Brazillian/ Portuguese people do it. This way is much easier to manage, you can do anything with the hair and hair looks more natural.

Have a good day xoxo

Look of the day My Little Sister's Red Mulberry Handbag

2011-12-13T10:21:00.000-08:00

Hellooooo everyone! Its been a long time since I last posted a new look of the day :( I know! but I am back...just been busy with christmas preparation, such as: looking for Christmas gifts and a gift for my little sister (its her 16th Birthday), it's 3 days before Christmas. How are your preparations going? Are still doing last minute shopping? I know I am! :)... Anyway, at least get to the important bit- the outfit. Here in England, its been raining a lot. Unfortunately, the rain is making it difficult to dress appropriately, and also to take good photographs. Thank God it did not rain today. Whilst my little sister is still at school I decided to borrow her PRECIOUS and very BEAUTIFUL red mulberry handbag, which if she knew I borrowed it, she would probably collapse lol (joke).

Enjoy it ...

I was wearing:

Blouse from Zara

Trousers from Topshop

Socked from Primark

Coat from Aqua

Hat from Reiss

Merry Christmas everyone xoxo

Look of the day Celebrating Old-School Glamour

2011-12-03T04:18:00.000-08:00

Hi everybody, I hope you all had a blessed week. First of all, let me say how thrilled I'm to notice that I have just got over 100 followers how great is that? THANK YOU SO MUCH. I guess a GIVEWAY would be the ideal way to celebrate this happy news with you guys (coming really soon).
Yesterday, me and my lovely boyfriend attended a Reiss event to celebrate the arrival of the new collection in the store and on our way we stopped by a local fair to snap some shoots. As for the things I'm wearing, I would describe it as Old-School Glamour with a twist. Underneath the fur coat I'm wearing a playsuit which keeps this look current, interesting and sexy.
You guys might not believe that this is my very first playsuit (YES FIRST!) :) I have never been a fan of playsuits and never paid any attention to them because; they don't have any "eye-cashing-factor". In my opinion, they're just plain and boring even if you accessorize it, I have never come a cross with something that has an Oomph... until I saw this silk taryn last week. Some of you may say that I've happened to find it in the wrong time of the season. BUT, as long as you are comfortable in what you are wearing the rest is just an EXTRA ;) . This playsuit is something else just look at the gold and amber beading details, isn't it beautiful? The embellishment make this playsuit very girly and glamours in some ways.

Here is some more photos we took enjoy them.

I was wearing:

Playsuit from Riess

Fur Coat from Riess

Daffodil Shoes from Christian Louboutin

Bag from Fendi

I wish you all a lovely weekend

It is perfect for everyone that wishes to add a few more inches to they legs.

* Look of the day * You have seen it before

2011-11-26T16:24:00.000-08:00

Hey everyone, this is just a quick post of what I was wearing today-Saturday. All of the items I'm wearing YOU HAVE SEEN IT BEFORE, I just wore them differently using different accessories and hair style. How many of us have had said " I have worn this already, I'm not wearing it again". Well think RECYCLE and grab that forgotten dress stored on the back of you closet and wear it this time with different accessories and hair style, it works! :)

I was wearing:

Dress from Zara

Shoes from Charlotte Olympia

Bag from Fendi

Double cuff from ASOS

Look of the day The half full maxi skirt

2011-11-25T15:25:00.000-08:00

Hey everyone, the first moment I saw this half full maxi skirt I knew it was THE ONE, and I couldn't resist. I had to purchase it straight away. I would describe this skirt as unique and daring, the design actually elongates the legs which is a plus :). I must be sincere, it is getting colder each day and I guess it will snow any time soon ( not that I'm looking forward to it).

I was wearing:

Top from Reiss

Skirt from Aqua

Set of necklace & bracelet from Lanvin

Look of the day Neutral and cream tones

2011-11-21T16:10:00.000-08:00

Hi guys, I have been looking for a dry cleaners all day, as I need to have my new vintage fur coat washed (I'll show it to you guys soon). Unfortunately, it stinks of old stored cloth...its my first time buying vintage fur and I don't know what to do next ...any suggestions?
Well, moving on to the look. I love fall/winter because you get to dress up in chic/glamour with coats and furs ( it doesn't get any better then that!). SHORTS: you can rock shorts regardless of the season, the one I'm wearing gives a masculinity theme to the look allowing the fur gilet and the accessories to instantly inject some glamour into the look.
P.S: Heels are a must to keep it feminine.

Necklace from Aqua, double set of ridged cuff bracelets from ASOS, belt from MOSCHINO, sunglasses from THE ROW, blue ring from YSL and gold from VIVIENNE WESTWOOD.

Look of the day The Jumpsuit

2011-11-20T03:26:00.000-08:00

Hey everyone, as you probably know when it comes to weather in England, its unpredictable. This time last year we were all wrapped up in: fur, warm cloth, heavy winter coats and layers of knitwear and for some reason it hasn't happened so far. Although, today it was a little bit chilly. I purchased this jumpsuit a few weeks ago when I was on an on-line-shopping-fever :) but, it needed alteration as it was clearly too longer for me, so I asked my lovely mum to do it for me.

A jumpsuit is a piece of cloth that every woman should own, because its versatile and it is really easy to put it together. All you need it accessories so take your time choosing them, and make sure you select a few oversize ones, either bangles or earring to make a statement.

Look of the day Floral Print

2011-11-18T19:11:00.000-08:00

Hello lovely readers, this is just a quick post to show you what I was wearing today. Today me and my boyfriend spent some quality time together, and I was thrilled to be with him all day and relax. we watched a few movies and ate a lot of unhealthy food (perfect! what else can I ask for). As for the outfit, this dress have been seating in my wardrobe for almost two months, but now I'm finally wearing it. This look is my twisted interpretation of the 40s; the prints, the shoulder pads, and the socks give it a girly and femininity feel to the look. But, if you think this look is too much for you (its taken you out of your comfort zone) alternate it by, turn things down by wearing a red belt, black tights and black shoes this way you are still keeping things interesting and flattering :). A suggestion ladies, don't take things to seriously and have fun playing around with your cloth :)

YSL

Hey everyone, I am sure you are familiarise with this ring. Its one of the most popular YSL rings out at the moment, and Its been on my wishlist for a long time. This is a size 5 the smallest size they do, and it still doesn't fit me properly (unbelievable). But, I love the blue stone on the ring and it looks good against any skin tone.

Isn't this package nice? It makes you feel really special, don't you agreed?

I wanted to purchase a pair of purple shoes for ages now. But, I've never came across something that I actually like. BUT, finally I found "MRS RIGHT" :)...Well, I just wanted to share them with all of you what I have purchased recently. Hope you like them and stay tuned for the look.

Happy Thursday xXx

Hey guys just wanted to share my latest purchase. I have been wanting this belt since.... I can't even remember. It has been a wish of mine for years now. A Moschino belt, it is classic, timeless and the GOLD letters- gosh its fabulous, adding chicness and sophistications instantly. It doesn't matter what you wear with it- if it is a pair of jeans or a fur coat you will certainly turn heads.

Look of the day A fall day

2011-11-12T12:26:00.000-08:00

Hello everyone, how have you been? Hope you have been okay. For this look I did not want to wear something too fancy ( sometime you don't feel like making an effort). So, I just wore this coat and a pencil skirt. Surprisingly, I've owned this coat for a few years now, but it is a popular colour and i am sure there's another coat like this out there. This is a great look for the working ladies ( just change a few thing, perhaps the Hat) or going out and about town. I think, the chunkiness of the shoes add an extra 'something' to the look.

There is some more photos for you to see...

I was wearing:

Coat from Karen Millen

Blouse from Zara

Pencil skirt from Zara

Thighs from M&S

Shoes from Kurt Geiger

Birkin bag from Hermes

Hat from Zara

Accessories from Swosvski

Look of the day Back to Black

2011-11-05T13:33:00.000-07:00

Firstly, Christmas is almost here and I am really exited about it. Are you guys exited as much as I am? I Love the time spent with the family, the food, Christmas song's and the least important thing- the presents :) Its just a really beautiful atmosphere to be in. As for the look, this is my "on the go look", I wear this for Uni and when i need to go out quickly. Don't you agree that black can make you look expensive? Is it an easy colour to pull it off but, if you don't wear it the right way, it can look tacky and cheap. So, think fashion forward and choose key pieces, such as: fur vest, scarves, belts, hats or layer different fabrics with one another for a more interesting and polished look.

In this look, I layered my old vest fur into a black coat this just adds a more sophistication to the look.

I was wearing:

Top from Zara

Coat from Mango

Vest fur from Zara

Legging from Zara

Ankle boots from Office

Bag from Chanel

Have a good weekend everyone

New family addition

Christian Louboutin S/S 12

Hey guys, what you do think of my new purchase? As you have notice I love colour, its gets me in a good mood to be honest :)... I when to London on Friday to drop my mother of at the Airport, so I decided to stop at Oxford Street (Selfridge) for a quick update on what is new... when I came across with this BEAUTIES but at the time I didn't know if I should get it or not so I left them, but I could not stop thinking about them, I even had sleepless nights just thinking about them (lol stupid right), well I decided to have them sent to me and once again, NO regrets. Its prefect for the coming session: the colour, the design, the shoes itself its just GORGEOUS but I don't think I will be able to wait till next session to wear them, therefore, there's a look coming soon ;)

I hope you love them and much I did

Hello guys, well its Saturday; I decided to go down-town to take a quick look around the shops and because Nottingham is a small town, there aren't many options when it comes to shopping, and with the return of the students, the shops were very busy; most the items were just flying off the shelves it was UNBEARABLE.
