Mugshot Monday-Shiny Sparkly

Sparkly dress, heavy eye catching necklace, high beam galore & sparkly eye-liner (not seen). I was a shiny sparkly person on Saturday night. And, I loved it! I don't go partying often, but when I do, I like to make an effort. My Topshop necklace took pride of place, smack bang in the middle of my neck (Obviously. Where else do necklaces lie?). On my feet? Flats. And not towering heels. 'Cause that's the way I am. Perfect dancing conditions!

P.S. No amount of hairspray would stick those errant side pieces of hair to my head. I just passed it off as, 'it's meant to be like this. Don't ya know?!' Hmmmmmm......

What did you get up to at the weekend? Have a great Monday, everyone!

Mugshot Monday-Change The Clothes

This is the type of outfit that I have been wearing for days on end. I really need to change the record. Or the clothes, for that matter. Those trousers are just so comfortable, though. My brother thought they were pajamas pants when he saw them on me. Not quite! But just as comfortable. Mugshot Monday is finally back after an absence.

Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend? I'm currently watching (a day late) all the glamour on the Oscars red carpet. Fairly gutted that Helena Bonham Carter didn't win an Oscar, I must say. Gotta love HBC.

Mugshot Monday-Butterfly Me Away

Guess who's back?

Back again

Sarah's back

Tell a friend

Guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back

guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back.......

Yes, I am back! And, it is good to be back. Last week was quite a blah, blah week for me. I really did not want to impose my bad mood on you beautiful people. So, my fingers were banned from tap-tap-tapping, hence the lack of posts.

But, today I am back with Mugshot Monday. And the theme? Tattoos. I have always wanted to get a tattoo. However, I am still undecided what tattoo to get. I mean a tattoo is for life, not just for the weekend. Of course, there is laser, but I don't want to be going down that route. There will be no name tattoos (That is just asking for trouble. Angelina Jolie, Cheryl Cole, anyone?), instead I am thinking of a very fashionable, discreet tattoo.

While I think of the perfect permanent tattoo, I decided to play around with some fakes. Topshop fakes, to be more precise. A butterfly here, a bird there. All in a fake days work!

Are tattoos your thing? As always, I do love to know! Oh, and do you like my butterfly?

Mugshot Monday-Gwyneth vs My Republic

Technology has not been on my side this weekend. My camera has decided not to work, so this week's Mugshot Monday is quite old. Nearly six years old, in fact! This photo of me was taken when I was 17 years old (a baby). It was shot in October 2005 and I will never forget the similarity of December's Vogue (UK, 2005) cover shot with my photo. The pose is a little similar, don't you think?

The only question is: Do you prefer Gwyneth Paltrow's smile or my moody-esque glare? Hopefully, my camera will be up and running this week, so a 'proper' Mugshot will be on its way next week.

Did everyone have a great weekend?

Mugshot Monday-Take A Bow

Christmas may have ended nearly a month ago, but we still have all our decorations up. As much as I love Christmas, seeing a dead tree with all the decorations and lights drooping, is quite sad. Yesterday, we decided to have one final Christmas dinner. I'm talking the full works! Now, hopefully, we will be saying ta ta to the tree.

I just adore this H&M studded bow hairband. If you can't wear a bow on ehem, Christmas Day, when can you? Wearing a bow so vertically heightened is a big no-no during the week, my phone headset would just not allow such a thing to happen. It gets quite jealous, I'll let you know!

This is Mugshot Monday. (Even though, it is Tuesday in some parts of the World.) Do you like my bow? Do you have anything similar lurking in your wardrobe?

Mugshot Monday-Hat Humbug

Graduation hats? Hmmm, I don't think I'll be trying this trend on a day to day basis. Fun when receiving a piece of paper, but trust me, I whipped it off straight after the ceremony! Yes, I am a hat humbug, especially when it comes to this variety. I could wear the robe all day long, though. Major voluminous sleeves are my thing! What do you think about graduation robes?

Yes, this is Mugshot Monday, coming to you from My Republic of Fashion. So, tell me- what did you all get up to this weekend? Hope it was a fashionable one!

Mugshot Monday-Masked

First of all, I hope everyone had a fantastic New Years? I know, I did! Hence the lack of posts over the past few days. I always get quite lazy around this time of year. Note to self: Snap. Out. Of. It.

Secondly, I am introducing a new weekly feature to my blog-Mugshot Monday. Basically, it will be a photograph or two of me which defines how my weekend went for me, in terms of fashion, of course! A good idea, do you think?

The photograph for my first Mugshot Monday was easy to choose. Faux fur coat, a feather and diamond encrusted mask and a big smile. This picture defines my New Years Eve in terms of fashion. Despite usually hating New Years Eve, I fully embraced it this year. I thought, why not start the year with a bang. Got to love some feathers and faux fur on a night like that!

How did you all celebrate NYE?
