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.

Woohoo! Another Lollidot dress from Scarlett & Jo! Yes I am biased since they are named after me but they are also just awesome dresses. I have never been into cowl necklines but thought I would give it a try and I actually love it. This is the first black stretchy fabric lollidot dress and it is perfect for work or play. I am hoping a few more styles in black are released next year. I have been told there is one more lollidot to come this year and is a perfect party dress.

I am wearing the 26 as I was unsure if the bust would be big enough even with the cowl detail I didn't want it to be too stretched so this was the perfect size for me. The fit, length and sleeve length are all perfect and I really have nothing but two thumbs up for this dress.

I wore this to a family celebration at the weekend and just added a couple of blingy brooches to make it extra glam. Brogues are my go to shoes as they are formal and comfortable at the same time and go with almost everything.

I am a sucker for anything Halloween or Skeleton related and this dress caught my eye when looking through my fave alt-goth US shop Hot Topic online. I am lucky enough to have friends that live in the US that will send me things I order so I can save on some postage costs but you can still get stung with import tax and fees.

This dress is a 5x and it is slightly too short on my bust but as it is loose I can live with it. The length is good and sits just on my knee (5'3'') The material is stretchy and the lace detail is lovely. I really like the detail at the back of the neck. I have already worn this dress three times this week and it is a firm fave. I hope it washes well and will last me many years.

I got the bag from Killstar and it is so damn cute! It does come with a long strap also but I like the little handles. It is actually quite a roomy bag and can fit all my crap in it which is great. I love a bag with lots of room.

What better glasses for this outfit than my Lindsay Lowe Spirit Board GLOW IN THE DARK frames?! These are now available in the UK so you can save on those import/duty fees!!

It is so hard to find shirts when you have a large bust and small frame. I tend to stay away from them but when I saw this Karina shirt by In The Style Curve I had to give it a try. I originally ordered the 28 which to my surprise was huge on me so then ordered this size 26. Yes the collar is a little big, the sleeves are little long and 24 would have fit my frame better but I really need the 26 for my bust.

I also thought this would be a thin shirt but it is really thick and has a little stretch. I am wearing a black bra under it to show how thick it is. I love the skater dip hem style at the bottom which means it fits all size bums. It had been available in black also but is now sold out and does not look like it is coming back into stock.

This is quite a smart but casual look for me. I always think of jeggings/jeans as casual which is silly really. I added the brown belt and shoes to tie in the beautiful handmade brooch that was given to my by a talented friend.

How much more fun can a bag get?! This is another Yoshi real leather bag that has me drooling over how cute it is and also how well made it is. It is large enough to be an everyday bag for work and play with 2 size pockets and a large middle section all secure with poppers and zip. The detail of this bag is stunning and even has a balloon on the back.

If you love this bag but would prefer a longer handle you are in luck! Yoshi are wonderful because they do various styles in this Amongst The Clouds design with purse and even keyring to match so you can get a complete set. HERE

I love a bargain and I had seen a few fat babes I follow on instagram wearing this cute lemon print dress but figured it was a non stretch material so kind of put it out of my mind until I spotted it on sale at Simply Be for £15.

Thinking it was non stretch I ordered the 28 as the 26 was out of stock at the time and had a lovely surprise when it arrived in all its stretchy glory! The 28 is loose but not too big and the 26 would have fit a little more snug. The only thing I did do was cut off the ties at the end of the ruched sleeves as they had not purpose and the slapping around annoyed me.

I don.t know how this will wash or if the colour will last but the high neck is perfect as the Sun has been burning my chest recently and this solves that problem for bright days. The length is just on my knee and I am 5'3''.

Can I just say that this Yoshi bag goes with EVERYTHING!!! If you have not checked out their website please do and drool over all the real leather fun designs that have been released for Summer! Seriously so cute!

These glasses were an ebay bargain I just had reglazed with my prescription for Specs-by-post.com my go to for all reglazing! The shoes I blogged about previously and are another bargain from Primark that cost the grand total of £3 and fit my extra wide feet.

This is my 5th dress in this style from Scarlett & Jo and it is safe to say it is my favourite style for Summer! Thanks to the thin and floaty material and loose fit it makes for a sweat free wear even on the hottest of days. The newest versions feature these cute and useful pockets with flap detail. Any dress with pockets gets two thumbs up from me and this is a 100% winner!

This print is also now available in a pink and purple detail which is super lovely and on my wish list of future purchases! The elastic waist is comfortable and gives shape. The length means it is not flashing your lady parts on a breezy day and the v neck back detail is just lovely.

This was the perfect dress for today. If you have not tried this dress I urge you to now as there are so many prints including polka dots and daisies now available.

This was a cute find thanks to Sarah of TonsaBlush on Youtube. She reviewed a few things including this dress from UK Brand WearAll and I had to give it a try.

I had a discount code and have linked to 20% off at the bottom for you to also take advantage.

This is a super stretchy light material that my lace bra is showing its lumps and bumps. Defo go for a tshirt smooth bra. The collar also has some stretch making this a great comfortable Summer item. It does crease and I do not iron but can live with the creases due to the comfort and price.

I am wearing the 26/28 and it fits well but I would not ear this as a dress as I find it a bit short and I am 5'3'' but as a top this is perfect for me.

The pins I have added to the collar are by a brilliant artist called Chris Bourke and you can get these along with other pins of his and his art on his etsy store linked at bottom.

I have been waiting for a sweetheart neckline top from Scarlett & Jo for some time and they recently released this beauty! As with all S&J gems they are available in various colours and I bought 3 of them!

What I love most about these tops is that they are long enough to be worn with leggings/trousers and can also be tucked into loose fitting skirts. The material is thin stretchy and Summer friendly. There is a thin tie at the back to give shape and there is a little cuff at either side of the neckline giving a lovely drape detail.

This is a top I will be wearing lots due to easy wear and loose sleeve so help stop those Summer sweats. It flows out from under my but but would be at the waist of someone with a smaller bust and skims over the hips.

I am wearing the size 24 but I also bought the green version in a size 26 which also fits just as well. If you have an extra large bust I would suggest the larger size to stop overstretching of the fabric which can make it a bit see-through on the sides of the bust. The front section has a double layer of fabric to stop this but the 24 is overstretched on my bust so you can see the pattern of my bra through it. I will still wear the crap out of it!

These leggings are also S&J and a size 24. They don't stay up as well at the crotch as older ones I have purchased. I think a change in fabric may be the cause. Still super comfortable and wash really well though.

I really struggle with sandals because of my super wide feet. I tried on loads in Primark yesterday and found these for £3! I did size up for more room across my foot but they do stretch a bit with wear so suggest getting your normal size and breaking them in with socks. These are not good for long walks as they a super flat but perfect for pretty outfits and a stroll. I usually live in Birkenstocks all Summer.

Nothing like a pair of statement earrings to glam up an outfit! These bones are from Sugar & Vice and I love them so much.
