IDOLS CRAVING BALLERINAS

Brown phase take two. So I've never bought anything from Ted Baker before, in fact my perceptions of it were such that I'd never really thought of it as somewhere I'd actually find anything. Although I do have a soft spot for those bright patent bags with the bows because this awesome girl I used to know had one. Anyway. Me and my mum made the trip out to John Lewis, mainly to look in the wool sale and pick up a gift I'd reserved online, when I saw this amazing swan printed dress. After getting confused over the number sizing I went for the biggest one so it's easy to wear as a shift & I can wear it longer (age wise) or with a belt. I'm always a sucker for a good print. Plus it's 100% silk & has all these cute things all over the label, about Ted thinking I look "Fabulous"

I wasn't sure whether to post about this but it's just still so funny that I figured I'd share. I have a black eye. I'm not being abused, but the absurdity of how it happened either makes you think I am being & it's a really bad story, or it's so crazy it must be true (it is). Basically I kicked myself in the face with a fake leg. (I just laughed again) I use a synthetic leg to put the hearts on the tights I sell and I was balancing it thigh down between my own legs to put the tight over the toe. I turned to pick up the tights and it fell right into my face. It's weighted at the toe so it stands up & it hit right on my bone so it came up in like a huge bump. But we were laughing so hard for like 10 minutes that I didn't notice how much it actually hurt. So yes. Now it's all yellow & stuff. My bf said I look like a gansters moll. So helpful!
