Christmas Tiiiimee

Hey dolls,

I just thought I'd share some pictures from over the Christmas period.

I'm Christmas sick already - I miss it and it went far too fast! It's the one time of year my whole family gets together and the whole spirit and joy of it is so so lovely; the manic buzz of everyone in the same room, kiddies playing with their newest toys, the gorgeous smelling food and twinkling decorations! We're still rockin' our christmas tree and dancing lights in our house and have a mountain of leftover food that I keep munching at regular intervals.

I'm still going to share some of my lovely presents with you all as I'm super excited about some of them! I got a real selection of goodies so keep an eye out in the next few days.
But for now enjoy some Christmassy photos!

Christmas Party Outfit

Hey y'all,

Merry Christmasssss eep! I hope everyone has had a lovely day, spent it in good company, eaten lots of yummy food and got lots of awesome presents!

It was pretty low key today at my house. I just spent it with my immediate family, eating an insane amount of delicious food, exchanging presents and watching some really disappointingly unChristmassy TV! 

Boxing day in our house is the day when all the extended family come around though, bringing mayhem and chaos with them. Its so nice to have everyone altogether every once in a while though, and it's always been tradition in my family to have the huge full on Christmas dinner both days which I LOVE!
I'll add a few photos of both days in a little while :)

Last week was full of Christmas parties and work dos so I got lots of opportunities to wear some of the Motel pieces I picked up from the Sample Sale. I just wanted to share a particularly Christmassy one I wore to one of my works' Christmas party's last Thursday! The whole outfit was mostly red and black which I've been rocking a lot this December and the dress is glittery in places too which makes it even more perfect for this time of year. I styled it pretty simply with some black tights, red ankle socks and gorgeous black wedges which I bought recently. I also added some tacky Christmas gloves and Santa hat - gettin' in the spirit an' all! ;)

Hope you like the look, the white furry coat is also from Motel Rocks from quite a few seasons back and I'm still so in love with it. It's surprisingly light and I just throw it over anything and it keeps me cosy as!

Furry Coat: Motel Rocks
Dress: Motel Rocks
Gloves: Ann Summers
Ankle Socks: Topshop
Wedges: New Look

So what did Santa bring you all this year?

I'm planning to share a few of the lovely presents I got with you all over the next few days so keep your eyes peeled for them!

But for now, enjoy those leftovers and if you've got more days off work enjoy them! I'm going to stuff myself some more tomorrow yay!

Christmas love,

Motel: 'Dear Santa...' Christmas 2012

As part of the Motel Rocks Street Team us teamers get to take part in lots of exciting competitions, and to get everyone in the Christmas spirit the latest task is to create a mood board of all the presents we're wanting this Christmas! Quite a few sprung to mind (probably far too many - cheers to having a largeee family hint hint!!!), including many a Motel item, so I hopped onto Polyvore and created ''my fashion wishlist''.

I realise I've crammed a lot in but hell, if you don't ask you won't get right? 

My Fashion Wishlist - Christmas 2012 by jaynaugustina 

From gorgeous River Island handbags and Leather Look jackets, Missguided goodies including some purrdy footwear and super elegant dresses, and some of the absolutely fabulous new jewellery collection by Pixie Lott for Rock 'N Rose, which I've been lusting after since its launch last week, my wishlist is on track to make me a seriously fashionable Christmas!

Naturally, Motel feature heavily on my wishlist, my most wanted item being the Pearl Strapless Skater Dress in Black, which has an air of simple elegance. It also comes in more colours and patterns, my favourite being 'Oil Painting' which I have also included. And check out the beautiful Jeffery Campbell Litas in Black Glitter and the super warm 90's Boyfriend Coat in Black Fur. Loving them!
