Hello friends. Happy Friday😃. Are you ready for the weekend? I am, a day off from work tomorrow too, yippee!! I am feeling a little sore today as I have just had my blood taken. Not fun being over 40! I had it taken for my over-40 health check and to test me for coeliac disease.
My Daughter got diagnosed with coeliac disease in April this year at the age of 13. Bless her. The nurse said if you do not hear anything in about a week everything will be OK and if anything is wrong we will send you a new appointment.
Eek, I will be nervously waiting all week.
I work in a supermarket by day and blogger by night. We were told on Monday that this month we do not have to wear their uniform if we do not want to, we can wear Christmas jumpers! How cool!! I love this time of year and any excuse to buy a new one and wear my old Christmas jumpers is greatly accepted.
Can you guess where this Christmas jumper is from? Oh yeah, I popped it in the title! Doh, but can you believe it is really Primark? Such a great price for a licensed jumper and the design, style, and colours look so good together.
Grinch Christmas Jumper: Primark:
What I Wore: Grinch Christmas Jumper: Primark | Faux fur coat: c/o Marisota | Trousers: Nike | Boots: c/o Sainsbury’s
“And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.”- Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch Stole Christmas!

Winter Wonderland Theme At McArthurGlen East Midlands Designer Outlet:
I took these photos at Winter Wonderland in McArthurGlen East Midlands Designer Outlet. I also picked myself up a few bargains. I needed some comfortable black work shoes and I picked up some lovely Skechers ones for £24.99. When I visited my Mum and Dad in the week I showed my Mum them online and they were £59.99 so I got a real bargain shopping there.
4 Outfit Tips:
1.) Buy Quality Pieces: Buy a few quality pieces of fashion each season that will last you well throughout the season and for years to come. Think about what you buy and whether will it mix and match with cheaper pieces?
2.) Style Yourself: Look around the shops and pick something you like and not what everyone is going for.
3.) Look Out For Something Unique: Shop online and in-store. Try charity shops and eBay to find that unique jumper no one else is wearing.
4.) Hold On: If you have not picked up a Christmas jumper by now, hold on a few more days as shops will start to reduce them as they are wanting to sell them before Christmas.
Do you have a Christmas jumper? Have you ever visited the McArthurGlen East Midlands Designer Outlet? Have you got yourself a bargain lately?

How very nice of your work to allow wearing Christmas jumpers, I am yet to buy mine so will venture off to Primark this weekend then.
That jumper is so cozy...I love fur. And it's nice that you can take pictures too at work which isn't allowed here .Anyway, the whole place looks great. Christmas vibes on the rise.
Christmas is all about the fabulous festive knitwear. Loving the Grinch jumper and really in keeping with Christmas xx
I hope your test results come back the way you want them to. Love the Grinch jumper. That's pretty cool your boss will let you wear them to work.
Merry Christmas everyone! What a fabulously designed jumper - definitely getting me in the mood for Christmas time now :)
Ah that's a most excellent Christmas Jumper - Love the grinch and this has reminded me to see the film (and venture into Primark too) enjoy your non-uniform days at work :-) happy christmas
Your Christmas jumper is so nice! That is surely going to keep you warm this season. I am glad that your workplace is employee oriented for them to allow you to go on dress-down attires.
Such a cute holiday themed outfit! And your hair looks adorable with the little pin in it. Great look for the holidays!
That's why I love Christmas, it's all about vibrant color. I love your outfit.
I love that jumper. 'm not a big fan of multiple layers and being overly covered so I'm over the moon that places now do Christmas T-shirts too. I have a sprouts one :0)
Forgot the tag - always do #mixitup
You look amazing. Love the Christmas jumper and love your new fashion blog. We have one of these designer outlets close to us.
You rocked that sweater! Your outfit looks really nice, and I am happy that your office is so cool to let their employees dress as they please. Of course, no tattered or ripped jeans. That's a no-no for me.
What an awesome jumper! I love The Grinch :)
