David Emanuel Jeans - Review!!

In the winter I wear jeans near enough every day....I love jeans....When I get a comfy pair I will wear them and wear them until they are worn out...My last pair of favourite jeans were all worn round the hem on the bottom of the legs and there were holes appearing in them.....

So when I was offered the chance to review an item from the New Arrivals in Bonmarche jeans were the first thing on my mind...

I chose the David Emanuel Embroidered Pocket Jeans which are on sale for £19.50

Featuring elegant metallic silver embroidery to the front and back pockets and delicate diamante detailing, these stunning women's jeans have been designed exclusively by David Emanuel. Cut with a leg-lengthening straight leg and sitting on the waist for a comfortable and flattering fit, these ladies jeans are made from soft, cotton rich stretch denim. Easy-to-wear, these stylish jeans are perfect for both a smart-casual look and evening glamour.

Available in sizes 10 to 24 in 2 leg lengths: 29in and 31in...

When they arrived I tried them straight on and they fitted perfectly and were so comfy!! The length was perfect too! I usually struggle to get the perfect length but these were just right!! Long enough but not too long! They are made of a stretchy material which I love as it adds to the comfort! I loved the diamante detailing on the back pockets...Very stylish!

These would be ideal for a night out dressed up with some heels but not to over the top to wear on a daily basis!

Since wearing them I have washed them and they kept there shape well, didn't fade at all and didn't shrink either!! I think these will fast become my favourite jeans!!

If these don't take your fancy there are plenty of other jeans available from Bonmarch! 

Oh one last thing! I've just clicked on who David Emanuel is....He was in the jungle in I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here....hahaha I knew I'd heard the name somewhere before...

I was sent these fabulous Jeans of charge for the purpose of this review....This is my honest review....All thoughts and opinions are my own!!

Silent Sunday!!

Our 'Fluffy' Visitor!!

Last weekend we had a visitor!! Ellie had been dying for this moment since September when she started in Year two!!

Ellie brought home Fluffy!! The class pet!! Actually a stuffed toy but who cares....lol I don't think I could of coped with a live animal...A stuffed one was more than enough responsibility for us....hehehe
 

He was a very well behaved puppy! Walking home from school he even knew how to use the pedestrian crossing....

Ellie was funny....I asked her who looked after him during the Christmas holidays....She said a teacher and he was well looked after....I asked if he got any Christmas presents...Ohh yes a squeaky toy....I then asked did he have any Christmas dinner....Ellie said "Don't be silly, he's a stuffed toy...He doesn't eat real food" Silly me to ask! lol 

Ellie had great fun.....Showed him all around the house, played princesses, found him some fancy shoes, played the game Doh-Nutters and even found him a little friend....

Fluffy even went on an adventure out to the shops....We haven't been out and about much lately....It's been too cold or wet but having Fluffy gave us a great excuse to get out, get some fresh air and exercise!!

It gave the girls the chance to have a good go on their scooters they got for Christmas....They made the most of it and whizzed about all over the place! Right up to the top of the high street and back....Of course stopping off to buy some sweets on the way home....

By the time they got home they both must of scooted about two miles....They never complained once of tired legs....I thought Ellie would of but no....She thought it was great fun!!

For once Ellie asked to do her homework!! She usually hates writing but took great pleasure in writing all about Fluffy's visit!!

Fluffy was a great guest! He can come back again!! Anything which encourages Ellie to do her homework is welcome in my house....hehehe
