I've been rather excited about posting this outfit since it features so many of my favourite pieces at the moment; the first outfit post after Christmas and the Boxing Day sales is one which I always look forward to. I will start with the bag. I received the Retro Embroidered Pearl Diamoned Lattice like Bag courtesy of OASAP two days before Christmas; that made it extra special since it seemed like a holiday gift from OASAP. As soon as I saw it, I was incredibly amazed and impressed by the quality and beauty of this bag. I've been searching for the perfect red bag for one time (it was the one colour missing from my bag collection and made it quite difficult when wearing red outfits) and this is it. As much as I adore my Guess bags, this bag is right up there as one of my favourite ever bags. The more i've used this bag, the more I've come to realise just how closely it resembles the red Lady Dior Handbag. The shape, structure and pattern are so similar. I often feel frustrated by replicas of designer items for various reasons but I love this Dior inspired bag. It's perfect for me. I love the classy pattern and the beautiful pearls. I really want to get this bag in both black and in white now. I must say that I have always been impressed by the quality and design of my products from OASAP. My beautiful dresses and bags have been such a joy to receive.
I felt very brave the other day when I ventured over to the Boxing Day sales (although they are somewhat hard to avoid since I live across the road from a shopping centre). I overall thought the sales were extremely overrated since there wasn't much difference from the pre Christmas prices and the crowds were simply unbearable. However, I did find one incredible gem and that was these red velvet jewelled heels from Florsheim. Red velvet is my dream shoe; it reminds me of a princess or a regal inspiration. My Alannah Hill skirt is a sneaky little Christmas gift which I bought for myself. (I'll change my over spending next year I promise!) I simply couldn't resist this treasure. It's so unique and special. The origami detailing at the top is a genius idea and the print is so adorable. I paired it with my ever so reliable bow top which I've had for a couple of years.

Your Forever New Bow Top was a lovely fashion choice for styling with your Alannah Hill Summer Sweethearts skirt.
Whilst you are thinking or changing your overspending for a resolution I am planning to make a New Year's resolution to review of some of the backlog of blouses and full briefs I've purchased with photos and videos on my blog http://www.full-brief-panties.blogspot.com/ and on my YouTube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/misterpantybuns where I haven't uploaded a video since May.
Love your outfit!
Your weather there must be fabulous
I hope you have a wonderfully happy and successful New Year!
Oooohh this is such a lovely outfit on you! It has a retro vibe to it but looking really classy and stylish.
I love the shoes and skirt!
Cheers,

What a gorgeous outfit! The skirt is indeed unique and that white bow top is so cute...a match made in heaven...and those red velvet heels are a dream! I also love red velvet shoes, there is something so luxurious about them.
The look is fantastic as the red accessories!
Oh yes, those shoes are gorgeous! Definitely could see why you'd be 'forced' to buy those ;) Your look is always so perfectly retro - can't wait to see what you have in store for 2014!

I am in love with that red purse and those shoes! Red and Pearls - how pretty is that? And pearls are a favorite of mine. Thank you for commenting on your goals and plans for the new year. You have amazing talents, Imogen, and I know you will do well in life. Love is such an important thing, and YOU, MY FRIEND, are gifted with that.

You are Dorothy!!! That's what you were aiming for, right? You look amazing! X
you look so pretty! I agree with the person who said Dorothy--but like she's all grown up and going to a party :)
I think you ought to know, though, that OASAP is kind of evil. more info here: http://floralprintsandcommonsense.blogspot.com/2013/12/pink-hair-and-disrespect.html
Always a true angel, my dear Imogen.
happy New Year and please, please never leave me

I so agree with what you wrote about the Boxing Day sales being over-hyped. I've found better deals during other sales. I still go though just for the adventure of braving the rude crowd...heehee
Love those Florsheim shoes. I think that was worth the trip:D
you're so pretty!!! kisses
You look super stunning doll!! I had a break for Christmas, but now I am back :))) I love the shoes and that skirt, it is perfect!! Am glad you got yourself some lovely things. I hope the new year is a wonderful one for you, filled with happiness, love and great adventure. Lots of love & hugs to you doll Xxx

Hi Imogen!
I never go Boxing day shopping,it's too crazy - They say around my parts that the electronic sales are worth it but i was never there to corroborate this info!
I love the bag, in the first pic i thought it was small but it the subsequent pics i realize it's fair size -
The shoes are truly amazing Imogen
Happy New Year

The bag definitely looks like it was made for you! It suits your style so well! I would really love to have a red bag like that myself (as I don't have that many red accessories in my wardrobe!)
Great outfit, I love how the bag mathes you shoes!

I'm sure I've said it before, but I'll say it again-you have impeccable style! Everything you wear is incredibly classy and beautiful. That skirt is too good to pass up, and I think your bow top is just the cutest! Not to mention your red accessories. How fun. :)
Loving this outfit girl. Plus, I'm a huge fan of OASAP :-)
I love your new bag and especially love the entire outfit! Thanks for stopping by dear. I have been so busy, sick and trying to catch up that I have no time for blogging. Hope to catch up soon! Have a Great New Year if I don't visit back before then!

Your dress is really lovely and the shoes were such a great find! Coincidentally, my only find during the sales in Prague was a pair of red velvet ankle boots. :)

Hi dear Imogen, I´m so in love with your outfit as it is unbelievable cute! My daughter just left our house for a NYE-Party and as the theme was classy wear in the 60s she wore a similar - but not as nice - outfit than you, of this cause your post makes me really smile.
I wish you only the best for the New Year, for sure not with such bad experiences which you had in this year. You deserve only the best!
