Giambattista Valli at Macy's
I finally had an opportunity to browse the Giambattista Valli for Impulse collection at Macy's. Full of ruffles, bold red hues, and leopard prints, it was exactly the kind of clothing that I dream of filling my closet with. Although I didn't try anything on, my favorite piece by far was the frilly red skirt in the second photo. Everything appeared to be well tailored with luxe details, rich
Always Wear Red & The Half A Million
I know I've already posted today but I couldn't help but post about the outfit I wore today. So many people have complimented me on how the red belt really makes my outfit stand out!
I'm wearing a leopard print scalloped vest top from Internationale, Red belt from Primark and Leigh Jeans from Topshop.
I never really wear belts but I think this outfit just goes right with a bright red belt as It's a good contrast. I think this belt only cost about £1.50 or some ridiculous price like that (!) I suppose It gives a whole new look to a simple outfit which you'd just wear with a chunky cardigan right now because of this super cold weather!
I never really wear jeans either but as it's so cold right now I'm wearing them a lot!
What do you think of bright belts? Do you think accessories can completely change an outfit?
p.s EEK I'M NEARLY ON HALF A MILLION HITS! only 200 to go!

Fancy Dress Fashion
I don't know about you but a lot of my friends and people I know seem to be having fancy dress themed parties lately! I think it's great to go as something simple like a cat (boring I know) but I'm starting to think you should think outside the box a little more when It comes to these sort of things. I couldn't help but look at the great looking 80s costumes available at fancydressball.co.uk! I think there's a lot of things you can go as to a fancy dress party but It's always good to take a look online for inspiration and ideas!
(L-R Where's Wally, Lady Gaga, Superwoman and Amy Winehouse)
These 80s costumes are my favourite on the site, especially that Superwoman outfit!
I also like how with fancy dress parties you can dress really over the top or you can go as a more 'subtle' outfit (like me and the cat idea!) I've been to parties where people have been rubix cubes, the a team, 118 men... the list goes on. I think at the next fancy dress party I go to I'll probably go as Superwoman not a cat this time!
I also love how fancydressball stock accessories to go with your outfit too! I love the choice of 70s fancy dress accessories on the site!
Which fancy dress outfit is your favourite?

Time To Shine
One of my favorite things about this time of year is the abundance of highly decorative and attention-grabbing store window displays. At the Macy's flagship in San Francisco, I eyed a few sparkly and sequin-covered displays that have me suddenly wanting to wear anything shiny and festive.
Wintery Tights
Have you ever thought about changing from your plain pair of black opaques to something else?
Lately I've been experimenting with different patterned tights these are my current favourites from Henry Holland for Pretty Polly...
Sweater - Topshop
Shorts - Topshop
Tights - Tights Please
Wedges - Desire Clothing
I'm loving these star print tights and I think they'll be great with any dress for a christmas party! (or shorts)
What do you think of patterned tights? Are you a Henry Holland Tight girl?

I'M A REDHEAD
I never thought I'd get my whole head dyed. I've always had highlights but never gone all out and had my whole head dyed. I know people say red's been overdone but I fancied a change what better than to take a trip to my local Regis Salon in Crewe to have it done!
I thought you may aswell go lighter as I was originally going to go darker as I thought it's going to fade in time anyway!
Also, Regis are running a competition! to be in with a chance of winning a Canon 550D camera and whole year of hair services to visit Emma Willis's Regis blog! (www.haveagreathairday.co.uk/emmawillis)
What do you all think of my new hair?
p.s thankyou to everyone who's followed fashion-train now reached 2,800 by google reader! and nearly at that half a million hits too! aaaah!
My Week In Instagram Photos
I suppose I never really do much 'personal' posts but I'm getting really into all these photo applications at the moment. I've always loved Instagram (oh yes everybody i've only just started it using it properly as I have two accounts so FOLLOW ME all you lovely instagramers?!)
These photos are from the past two weeks...
1. Me and Lydia made quite possibly the best brownies in the world. (They are based on Jamie Oliver's Bloomin Brilliant Brownie Recipe) and I've never had so many compliments for food I've baked. The original recipe says add nuts and dates but we added galaxy, white chocolate and M&M's (perfect alternative)
2. Chilling with my friend Ruth (we love Instagram woo!)
3. This photos on halloween, I had my face painted like a cat!
4. My new shoes from Linzi Shoes.
5. I bought 10 Nail Art pens! (yes 10!) and my money has never been so well spent. If you follow me on Twitter and on Facebook you'll know how much I love my black nail art pen and seen all the designs I've done thanks to it! So It's great to have 9 more colours to experiment with!
6. An App called 'Incredibooth' was free for the weekend on the App Store it's amazing! And this is me and two of my sisters messing about on the App!
7. One of my best friends Emily decided to have a formal birthday party and so this is me and Lydia before we went to her party.
8. And here's us at the party with another close friend of ours Jimmy! (with a formal dress code the guys had to wear suits it was like reliving prom...)
9. Most of you regular followers will have seen both these photos! These are my current nails (thanks to my black and white nail art pens) and so many of you lot seem to love my nails and this is quite a simple aztec print design (YES I did say simple!) so I'm not sure if I should do tutorials?!
10. These are some other new shoes of mine from Topshop... Oh the studs... so much love for them! I think pretty much every blogger seems to have these. Now I have my hands on a pair I know why! They really are the best shoes ever!
How's your week been? You done any cooking/baking been to any parties?
