Well last night was his 80th birthday party, which included a particularly moving speech from the man of honour, a lovely rendition of Coldplay's 'Fix You' on the karaoke, a harmonica version of 'The Road To Hell, and some very silly dancing to an ABBA medley.
It was a great night, which my Grandad seemed to thoroughly enjoy. Here is what I wore...
Ruffle Dress - Ravi Famous London, from Triple S
Leather Look Leggings - Ebay
Cream Tights worn under leggings, H&M
Moc Croc Heels, New Look
Silver Envelope Clutch, H&M
Rings and Buckle Bracelet, H&M
Gems Necklace, Punky Pins
Rimmel Nail Varnish in Your Majesty
I thought it might also be nice to share with you my favourite picture of myself and my Grandad, taken at my graduation, way back in 2006 - doesn't he look proud?
Happy Birthday Grandad!
