I have been meaning to do this outfit post for a while. This dress is one of the ones I wore in the Plus North Fashion Show by Simply Be. The dress I had chosen was out of stock in my size so they brought this for me instead. As a teen I was always wearing black as I was told is was slimming but as an adult I have filled my wardrobe with loud colours and prints. I have to say this is not a dress I would have chosen but I was surprised how nice it...
This was the second Swap I had been to and loved the first one so much. You can see my post about the last one HERE. Rachel and Lisa checking out some items. These was lots to look through and of course try on! Stolen pic from Lisa of me checking out some skirts Got this cute necklace that went perfect with my outfit of the day. Rachel trying on a Pat Butcher style coat that she took home. Sadly I did not get a photo of the awesome cape Lisa got! Lisa went home with this dress...
While browsing the interwebs I found an internet friends Etsy shop and this beauty below. Vintage plus size is very hard to come by and I loved the colours, print and shape of the dress which was actually too big for me but figured a belt would fix that small problem so I ordered it. £21 including UK postage from the USA and it came in a week! Thats faster than most of the things I order off ebay from UK sellers. If you have never ordered from Etsy before then do it! I get a lot of...
Ok so there is not a beach in Sheffield but if there was I would be there with spots on! Plus Mr and I are planning a trip to the coast soon so this will be my beach attire. Although I have been swimming twice this week at the local indoor pool and I have not been to a public pool in 20 years! I went with another fatty for support although it was not traumatic at all. It was actually a really fun experience that I plan to do a lot more of at only £3.20 for...
This blue vest has been getting a lot of wear. I need to get a few other colours. The waterfall cardi is soft shirt like material and perfect for covering up and the weather is too warm for a wool cardi. I got if from New Look Inspire size 22. This style is pretty forgiving so try another size if they don't have you usual size. The skirt is a size 22 from Dorothy Perkins which I got in the sale a while back. It is supposed to be long but I wear skirts under my bust which...
Having got a few ASOS items from the Curve range I was so excited to the Flamingo skirt reduced and had to try it. It has a zip at the back which is quite tough and not stretch but to my surprise it fit me perfectly. I added a few of the Flamingo pieces I already had and this what I came up with. I think its pretty cute and the skirt is full enough to add my blue petticoat under it for going somewhere fancy. Just for reference the size 26 measures at 47 inch waist Cardi...
