If you saw my previous post I met up with some local bloggers for a bit of shopping and food at Meadowhall on Thursday and I bought this dress from Simply Be. I had not seen it on the website but it is there and on sale! I tried the 26 and 28 and I needed the 28 to fit my bust. It is a smock style dress and I just loved the sleeves and of course the lipstick print! It is a thin polyester non stretch material so would be great for Summer but I will chick on some boots and cardi or jacket and make it work this Winter.

The leggings are Asos Curve cropped version and I always size down in leggings. These are a 22 and they still pull up to under my bust and the elastic waist is not too tight. I also bought the full length version but they are about 5 inch too long on me (5'3'')

I had a much needed haircut on Friday and thought I would take some outfit pics and I don't own hair straighteners so my hair will never look like this again after it has been washed.

“I wanted to make pieces to last years. Beyond trends, beyond chain stores. I wanted to create something all its own, something just for us, made with love and consideration. Made ethically in the USA as a small company with no corporate input. Uncompromising, unapologetic, humane, and timeless. Go-to pieces designed to last.”- Beth Ditto


This was the first piece released from the Beth Ditto Collection and what a way to start! This is the iconic Jean Paul Gaultier Corset. It is printed onto an oversized black tshirt which can be dressed up or down. The print is front and back and there is a ribbon laced through eyelets on the back for extra detail. Wearing this outfit makes me look and feel daaamn fiiine! Double chins, vbo, lumpy legs and all!

Bringing high end designer looks to plus size is fantastic and sooo needed. Not everyone can afford it but those that can should have access to it.

I have kept it sexy with the cute Heart Choker from Vixen Curves and Big Tights All Woman Lace Hold Ups which have that jelly stuff which stops them sliding down. These are size 28-32 are fit great!

As the shirt is oversized it is long enough I can wear it as a dress but I am only 5'3'' but I would wear this with leggings or a skirt also.

An old fascinator and my Wedding shoes from Hush Puppies complete this fabulous look!

Hubby had a fancy pants Burns Supper night with work and of course being a Scottish Lass in England I was super excited to go and indulge in some Haggis, Neeps & Tatties! Also seeing some men in Kilts is a pretty awesome sight.

I was unsure of what to wear with it being so fancy but I remembered I had bought this Scarlett & Jo dress in the 50% off sale weekend. I had planned to save this for Valentines Day but I was really feeling the roses so decide to wear it.

It is very lightweight with skirt part being a silky feeling material and the top a thin stretchy material. This is the size 26 and I could have sized down. I was worried the waist may not have enough stretch but is has lots and the dress is very comfortable to wear and rather floaty and swishy feeling because of the lightweight material which added to the glamour of it. It comes with a wide belt but I don't find wide belts comfortable to swapped it for a skinny belt I had and easily cut off the big bet loops.

With some glitter accessories I was all set for the fancy night with my Hubby. We had a lovely time and was nice to have some time out with adults and no kiddo. Franklin had a fab time with his Grandparents and did not miss us at all!

So the saying goes "Red and green should never be seen" but it is good enough for nature and Santa and I really love the combination.  This also a double dots outfit! This is the last of the Scarlett & Jo Teal Lollidot dresses I have to share with you but fear not there is still a Navy Lollidot to come soon!

The sleeves have little turn ups and the waist belt comes from the front just under the bust on me but on a smaller bust would sit at the waist (See it on Kat HERE) The midi length is perfect on me but long enough as not to be too short on someone taller.

As you all should know by now I have a major passion for glasses or #glassesporn being all things glasses related. I wore this outfit to one of my favourite human beings Birthday lunch in Leeds on Sunday. This outfit was put together starting with the brooch. It is hand painted by Jesiiii and my second brooch from her etsy store. What could be cuter than polka dot cateye glasses?! Not much!

This skirt is another #glasseporn favourite of mine. I found this fabric online and asked IneterrobangArt to custom make me a midi skirt out of it. I love that she makes straight and plus items and even designs her own fabrics! Check out her store HERE

My bag is the infamous Skinny Dip and Felicity Hayward collaboration for Asos.

I am unhappy with the quality of photos due to lack of light and was not going to post this but I have ordered some lights and will do a comparison photo of this outfit when they arrive!
