Cookie Monster!

Last week I went to a friends Birthday meal. It was at a really fancy restaurant where sadly there wasn't really anything I could eat (being both vegetarian and very very picky). Also while I knew the majority of people there were a couple of people I'd only met once or twice before, so I basically said nothing all night :P Still Philly (birthday girl) had a great time and it was nice to see everyone.

I wore a new dress:
 

The best place to take photos is in our utility room (has the best light) but it is horribly squalid! That's my sister's dig Pippa lurking around behind. We were looking after her for a few weeks.



I LOVE it! I look like the above mentioned muppet :D It's a fantastic bright cobalt blue and completely covered in little loops of fabric. It's from Asos you can see it here :)

I also wore my new (possibly) favourite necklace. It was from my Mum for Christmas:
 

It's Peter and the Wolf! So cool.

And here's my face:


 

I was wearing Black eyeliner with Barry M Black glittery liquid eyeliner and Mac Kanga-Rouge lipstick. Can't remember my cheeks or face.

Also if you haven't seen, I've added a little poll on my sidebar :)

    Oh that dress is amazing! Being addicted to biscuits I heart Cookie Monster, I have a Japanese Cookie Monster hoodie I wear at night and I'm always trying to identify cookies that might be the ones Cookie Monster munches on (they look like the munchiest cookies ever!) Monsterpiece Theatre has to be one of funniest skits in a kids' show, ever.

    And I love love love that necklace, so whimsical and wonderful! What a lovely mum you have x

    The cookie monster is my favourite on sesame street, possibly cause I'm a huge greedy fat kid :P And yes, his cookies always look amazing, they crumble so pleasingly! And Monsterpiece was my favourite too! Sesame Street was so great and clever!

    the coolest dress i have ever seen! i love texture with clothing, i dont have many textured clothes except sequin and faux fur, but i want to venture into different textures.

    i love the name Pippa alot! its such a beautiful name, i kind of wanted to name my kid (if i ever had one) Pippa. i think i heard the name in a book, i just can't remember which one it was. your sister's dog is very cute.

    Your sister's pippa looks a lot like MY sister's pippa! Although my pip would never stay still long enough for non blurred photo :D

    Thank you! I love textured clothing too, i LOVE fringe, and this is like a weird take on fringe :P

    Pippa is a very nice name, and she's a very sweet dog :)

    Meng:
    I got it from Asos, there's a link to it in the post :)

    Vulcan_Butterfly:
    Thank you! it's one of my very favourite red lipsticks :)

    Caz:
    Ha ha! What a coincidence! This Pippa is very old and slightly creaky, she slinks around the place :P
