..if you haven’t joined ‘Fashion Consolidated’ by now then you really do deserve  a hearty slap round the chops with a wet kipper.  Because you were in spitting distance of missing out on the *glorious* Navidad dress and shoes. These are gifts from Isobel Desantis and Constanza Volare.  I’m all for freebies, obviously, but this is spoiling people to shame.  The shoes are beautiful and the dress is..well, think of eggnog, sleigh-bells, Bing Crosby and chestnuts roasting on an open fire all rolled into one package. In other words, it’s Christmas in dress from.  And you have two days to get it in.  Then you’ll feel utterly stupid for missing out and be ridiculed by all of your friends…especially me.  I’ll be the one jumping up and down in my new frock shouting ‘Told you so!’ ( The dress even comes with a script so the skirt doesn’t fall through the bottom of a chair when you sit, as so many frocks are want to do..)

The dress is only available until noon SLT on Tuesday 4th December. It’s available from the ‘Alchemy’ Main store (Emilia 34, 143, 76) for nowt.  The shoes are situated next to the dress in Alchemy, (but they are also available at the Angels flagship store where you can get the shoes until December 25th)  Again, they cost a big fat nuffink, but it would be a real shame not to have the frock that goes perfectly with them, don’t ya think? You have to go to Angels anyway (West Sunset 207, 119, 22) because they have an advent calendar that will bestow freebie shoes on you and make you sing with happiness:) Incidentally, I was lucky enough to bump into Isobel Desantis whilst at the store.  I thanked her for being so generous with her freebies and she was extremely gracious.  Star of the show however is Rina, she’s Isobel’s chow and greets patrons as you enter the store.  By the time I left the store I was entranced, not just by the superb products on display but by an exceptionally gorgeous doggy.  Please go and pay Rina a visit, and don’t forget your goodies!
