mood enhancer

my mood enhanced by fantastic news of my wonderful friend's, i went on to do some shopping this afternoon. shopping is a mood lifter when you are stressed or heart broken, but it can also be a mood enhancer when you are feeling happy!!

first photo is a much-needed-pair of flats, from sportsgirl. i fell in love with the unique diagonal straps.

my main aim today in fact was to get something from portmans x abbey lee kershaw's new aw11 collection. i love abbey lee and when i first saw portmans' ad on the current issue of russh (below), i just had to get it. she wears this top over a paisley maxi dress. i couldn't afford to buy the dress today but i'm thinking of wearing the top in many ways, with my black maxi or jeans. abbey looks just stunningly cool, i admire her looks a lot
