I wish I looked this glam ice-skating

I don't normally do celeb style posts, but I couldn't help posting Emma Watson at the opening of Somerset House's ice rink on Tuesday night. Love her black eye make-up, festive red knotted scarf, and polka dot dress. Somerset House is my favourite ice rink in London - and it's always that wee bit more fun after a glass of spicy mulled wine!

Oh my, if it were me being photographed it would be just my luck to be gracefully upended on my behind or something like that! Unfair isn't it.

When I see pics of Emma Watson these days I can't believe how grown up she is! And very stylish too, wasn't she in the front row at London fashion week? Even her skates match her outfit!

If it were me being photographed, it would be because I was so unco that I'd fallen and got my fingers sliced off...
Cool to spot a celeb at an ice rink, though. (Ignore pun!)

This is why she's the new spokesperson for Chanel.

Emma Watson always has great style! She looks great there and I am in love with her polka dot dress and scarf.

I would totally wear that with the gorgeous pair of diamond earrings my fiance bought me from www.idonowidont.com and go ice skating too!

Chanel was right in picking her to represent them, she's fierce!

I wish I could ice skate at all. Then I'd work on the looking stylish. :) I've tried to ice skate, but despite being a Capricorn my Mother insisted would have strong ankles, mine are weak!

Christmas lights up London I went for a stroll around central London and Marylebone last night, and found that it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. My vote for the most charming Christmas window? The vintage decoration display in the window at Content...
