Hey all!

 

The countdown to christmas has officially begun! With it being a matter of hours now till the day we have all been waiting for- I am so excited! This is an outfit post from our last day of school, when we celebrated christmas jumper day (late I know!- but I do have to say possibly one of the best days of the year!). Being very stuck, not owning any christmas jumpers myself I decided to make one, I made it up as I went along but would definitely reccommend trying it yourself (tutorial below).

Hope everyone has an amazing christmas, let the eating commence :P Its a veggie christmas dinner this year, no turkey for me!

 

lots of love, Paloma xxx

 

DIY Christmas jumper

 

If you want Christmas Eve to go that little bit quicker then try out this quick DIY for making a christmas jumper, using felt, pins and thread.

 

All you need is some different coloured pieces of felt, some paper, a pen, pins and thread and some christmas songs playing in the background!

 

1) Draw out your chosen design on a sheet of paper (I chose cute reindeer!)

2)Cut out and pin to a piece of felt.

3)Cut around the stencil, using fabric scissors

4)Sew on any further details using smaller pieces of felt

5)Sew your design onto the jumper

 

The great thing about this DIY is that you can simply unpick your design afterwards, saves you spending money on a jumper you can only wear for a couple of weeks a year!

 

Enjoy and Merry Christmas!!

Hey guys :)

Sorry for the delay in posts, we've been planning a dinner party which we're both very excited about and will be a future post on the blog, so keep checking for updates. In the next few days, ...cos its The Bees Knees will be all festive and filled with christmas cheer as we have many christmas themed posts, such as jumper posts and baking posts, lined up for nearly every day leading up to the day we're all waiting for!

 

I thought i'd kick off the festive season with an outfit post which is very wintery themed with emerald greens and grey tweed, not to mention a huge ultra-furry 'cruella devile' parka coat.

 

My Outfit - Parka -Topshop, Dress- Topshop, Cardigan- New Look, Brogues- H&M, Tights- M&S. 

Paloma's Outfit- Dress (worn as skirt) - Primark, Jumper- M&S Limited, Tights- M&S, Shoes- Topshop.

Also, over the week i've been getting all excited about the amount of christmas nail art designs that I am imagining and am able to at least try to re-create. Here is a step by step tutorial in pictures for a design I like to call 'Santa's Workshop'. I used- Barry M in Bright Red, Sally Hansen Strengthening Top Coat, Collection 2000 in Green with Envy and Collection 2000 in Damson Jam. For the black and white, I used acrylic paints with a brush and dotting tool :)
