This is my second Scarlett & Jo Bridal Review! If you missed the first one you can see it HERE.

Lets jump right in! When S&J first announced a Bridal Collection I was over the moon and they have not disappointed. The quality, fit, style and glamour factor is what we have come to know and love about S&J. This Collection raises their already high standards to a new level.

Seeing the 4 options above this Lace Prom was the one that I thought would word best one my body shape but I have found both that I have tried are perfect and just a dream to wear. The comfort level on these dresses and all S&J dresses is something to be tried to be believed. This is a Classic 1950s Prom dress style but with 2016 technology. Made with fabric that breathes and stretches to fit a fat body all while being true to the Classic look.

The lace of this dress has a lot of stretch so it fits all sizes and shapes. There is no uncomfortable zips. It just slips on over your head. I did have to gently squeeze my extra large boobs in one by one as the waist has no stretch. Once they were in they were not going anywhere! I could dance in this dress with no boob problems.

The bust comes up enough to hide the front of your bra and a nude one is not visible through the intricate lace. The round neckline is soft and stretchy. The skirt has 3 layers with a poofy centre one to give the full skirt look and is soft and floaty like a cloud.

The dress comes with a white Ribbon which I switched out for a red one to match my sparkle shoes and glasses. As with all they can be styled with any colour accessories to go with your Wedding theme.

It came to just below my knee and I am 5'3'' for reference. This dress is beautiful as are all the Scarlett & Jo Bridal Collection dresses and will make any Bride feel like a Queen on her special day.

Happy Birthday To Me

Thursday, February 13, 2014

As the title say it was my Birthday! I am the ripe old age of 34! Age is just a number and I have no problem being any age. People say act your age and dress for your age but I think both these things are rubbish! Don't act, just Be! I dress however I feel! I think these are both good things and have served me well so far.

Anyways onto the outfit! I wore this beautiful Simply Be Luxe Prom dress from the new collection to my Birthday meal with friends and just all round awesome people! We went to Damons a Rib place in Sheffield near Crystal Peaks. If you ever have the chance to go then order the Onion Loaf ( it is not bread! Just so you are not disappointed).

This dress is just gorgeous! It is the same style as the Poppy Print one they had a while back. You can see my posts about that dress HERE. It is a thick shirt like material with stretch which makes it super comfy and less prone to creases. I loved the colour combo and modern but also vintage feel to the print with the flowers. Plus polka Dots! Whats not to love really!

The bag is Doctors Bag style which I love and has a removable long strap. The black and cream means it will go with most things and has lots of room for all the stuff us ladies tend to carry around and never use.

How cute are these shoes! The are a platform sole so look higher than they are and are available in E and EEE wide fit. I always have to size down from a 6 to a 5 when I wear wide fit shoes. These are very forgiving as they have the adjustable ankle straps. Can I just say I have never been able to wear ankle straps as they have never been big enough to fit around. These have plenty room and can't wait to rock them this summer as sadly the weather stopped me wearing them out for dinner. They also come in Tan!
