We are back to the time of year where sparkle is everywhere and the internet is awash with people either looking forward to, moaning about, or selling staff Christmas parties. We at Topshop had ours the other Sunday which I am sure went down like most; good but the hype surrounding it always surpasses the actual event. Below are a few festive party dresses which I think would look a treat with some Christmas sparkle.

Velvet Dress By Boutique, £125, Topshop

Limited Edition Black Embossed Wool Dress, £545, Kirsty Doyle

Cream Texture Roses Shift Dress, £50, River Island

Premium Pale Blue Snow Jewel Dress, £60, Topshop

When I come across a pair of heels which are beautiful and aren't crippling, it excites me so much I do a little dance. I just danced.

Several items of good news;

The Topshop Make Up AW11 collection launches September, bringing us more eye shadows, mascaras, eyeliners and blushes. Most importantly, new nail varnishes intriguingly titled - In The Seasons, Camel, Utilitarian Green, Peach, Air Force Blue.

As of September 2nd Zara will have joined the ever increasing e-commerce society. Even more online shopping.

After a lovely afternoon out for lunch in Chester yesterday, I found some delicious loafers and brogues in Russell and Bromley and was surprised at a couple of pairs of cute flats in River Islands flats too.

And last, but by no means least, the temporary New Yorker I posted about is home today.
