OOTD: Mint and Movie Madness

Hi Lovely Gals,

This weekend truly is movie madness, yesterday (which is when this outfit post was taken), we saw Hangover Part 3, it's so funny and if you're a fan of the franchise I'd highly recommend that you see it!  Honestly, I'm always a bit sceptic when it comes to the 2nd or 3rd sequel of an awesome movie, but this one was just as funny as the first two, especially with a very unexpected end.  Anyway, today we're going to see Texas Chainsaw Massacre, I think the last really awesome horror movie I saw at the cinema was Paranormal Activity, I'm quite a horror movie buff (read my about section here ), they really need to know what they're doing in order for me to be chuffed, so I'm going in with high hopes today and will let you know if it's worth the watch.

Here's my babies!  Aren't they just the cutest, I cannot imagine my life without them, each one of them have their own personality, they're different just like us humans are, never just assume that because they're just a dog/cat/bird etc. that they're all the same and they have no emotion or feelings, I assure you they do ~ they experience loss and pain the exact same way we do.  It's an unfortunate reality that I like animals more than most people, being involved with various shelters which I'll still post about, one gets to see raw human cruelty, I also can't help it but I tend to greet animals before humans LoL, I'm just drawn to them and I don't question why God gave me such passion for them, I also believe that He created them for a purpose, as humans we all crave to be unconditionally loved and that is a love you'll only ever get from a pet.  Yesterday morning we made a quick visit to our vet just to give our babies a quick check-up, and there was this gorgeous poodle, she sat next to what I assumed is her owner, so posh and statuesque, until I heard that she's up for adoption and she's 13 years old, her owners had died in a tragedy and she was left with no one :'( her last years will be spent in a Foster home, so please!  Make sure you nominate someone to take care of your furries in case something were ever to happen to you.

 

Until one has loved an animal a part of ones soul remains unawakened.

Textured bags are all the rage this winter, it's a really easy way to spruce up an outfit, and take what could be a drab to a fab outfit just with one amazing piece like this.  I adore this Blackcherry handbag, if you're not familiar with this brand you're missing out, I also recently found this gorgeous cream and gold bag, there is definitely something for every taste, style and wallet size ;) so if you're on a budget you will find a beautiful piece.

 

I paired it with this pastel aztec print jumper, how cute is this knitted beauty?  I kept my accessories to the minimum to show off this handbag to the max, and just wore a few dainty necklaces.  On to my next favourite piece for winter, these stylish and sexy knee high boots!  These boots could be utterly gorgeous but also utterly hideous if worn wrong, you don't want to look like a lady of the night ;) so find a pair with no platforms and a medium length heel, also steer clear of bright colours and invest in a black, grey or brown/taupe colour.  They are my favourite pair though and I love wearing them with an awesome tee and some leg warmers just peeking out at the top, or a gorgeous top with a fab blazer for nights out.

 

Hope you have an awesome and Blessed Sunday lovelies!
