fashion tips anyone? + usual fandom chat
So I had a nice day off today. Slept in, then hit the shops to buy Xmas pressies and find a dress for the work Xmas party.
Not much success on the pressie side - high street shops - why are you charging more than online? this is not going to encourage me to spend there so why is the news saying we'll get discounts on the high street this year because of the downturn in the economy?
Anyway I did manage to find a dress - yay! Its a dark blue 1920s flapper style dress. It's not fantastically Xmas-ey but am pleased with it. But fashion conscious people - I need tips on the following:
What colour tights? I like black - but am not sure it goes with a dark blue dress?
What colour shoes? Found some nice bronze shoes but am not convinced it will match well?
Can you tell I don't shop for party clothes that often :P
Other stuff:
TV - how great is The Devils Whore? And I also enjoyed Einstein & Eddington :) Also Simon Pegg is to host a Xmas special of The Friday Night Project *grin*
I never got the chance to see Pride & Glory at the cinema :( Planned to see it this weekend but nowhere is showing it. On a good note however, my local cinema has put up a massive poster with Nick Frost on it for The Boat That Rocked:
so hopefully there will be a trailer soon :)
