I wore a christmasey outfit to dancing last Friday. I have so many self-decorating ideas that I realised I had to start early! I bought these from Gemma who is making all sorts of lovely hair clips.
Some of our students fell completely so completely in love with the idea of the holly on the shoes that I know they have been checking the blog for details of where to get their own. *waves hello*
First I had to check they are still in stock, and in doing so secured 3 more to do a little giveaway this week for your own set of holly clips. The berries will be slightly different from mine as Gemma is running out.
They come with a hair grip (sometimes called an alligator clip I think) on the back and I found that was secure and comfortable on the straps of my shoes.
This one was onto a safety pin through my dress
We'll close the competition at Thursday Noon British Standard Time, to give us just enough time to get the winners address and get them in the post on Friday. If you are in the UK then you should get them for Christmas, and if you aren't, well you can save them up for next year!
If you'd like to see what other clips Gemma has, here is her web boutique:
Go to it!!

Other Outfit details:
Dress: Vintage ebay or etsy. I took fabric from the hem to make the belt
Shoes: Aris Allen, my most comfy dance shoes (rather scuffed now)
