AGHHH, I am so excited to share this post with you all. As you probably know from my constant tweeting and posting on the matter I’ve been after an SLR camera for ages. What with all my travels and obsession with taking photos of everything, I decided it was about time I invested in a super special camera. My dad gave me £200 for Christmas to go towards my dream bag (Chanel Classic Flap in black & gold), however when I discovered the price has increased by £1000 over the last 4 years (the bag now costs £2500) it was totally clear this bag is going to be a dream for a lot longer. The plus side of this is that I now had £200 to help fund my camera. Along with my trusty overdraft (which despite working for 3 years, I still haven’t cleared) and some additional Christmas money I had … I’ve gone and invested in the one and only Canon D550. I am so chuffed by my new purchase and mega excited to get snapping.
So today’s post is two fold; naturally some snaps of my new camera & my excitement when I purchased it, but also my outfit of the day :)

. Canon D550 (case & memory card included) – John Lewis £549 .
I’m so excited to start taking photo’s and share them with you on my blog. Hopefully it’ll make for some fab posts :)
What camera do you use and is it your pride and joy?
Hi Melissa
Found your blog last week and have been having a nose daily! Such a lovely blog and as a newbie to the bloggersphere you’ve given me a little bit of inspiration and a lot of consideration into investing in an SLR!
Keep them coming! xx

yeah its absolutely disgusting how much that chanel bag has gone up!!! i don’t know how they can justify it. then again, mulberry bags are more expensive now than they were 2 years ago.
good investment in the camera though. i have the 450D and i love it! xx
nice boots and pants :)

Congrats on the new camera! I’m a bit jealous. :) A fancy camera is on my wish list and am currently taking note on what people are saying about a canon versus a nikon. you’re the second blogger who just purchased a canon this year so i might be swayed into a canon…Happy New Year!
