Black Velvet

A few weeks ago Big Fat Betty posted on twitter that she had bought herself some cute new dresses one if which I'd bought myself just a few days earlier. We decided to bring you a joint post to show you the dress on 2 different shapes and styles. It turns out the lovely Leah also has this dress so now there is 3.

I picked this dress up at the Simply Be store in the white rose at Leeds, it was in the sale for £19 so I couldn't resist. 

This dress is one of those that makes you want to stroke it, the velvet is so soft. I really love the sheer panel at the top although I wish it was a little lower so there was a bit more cleavage on show. But for those of you who prefer to be more covered it's perfect.

This is a skater dress and the cut is really generous, I'm wearing a 20 but I think I could have worn a 18 and been comfortable. I love this dress it's really simple but with great detailing like the studs on the shoulders and the mesh panel. 

I went for a simple look with the dress no accessories and a messy top knot. I can't wait to see the dress on the other 2 lovely ladies.

Check out their posts and see how they styled the dress,

If you want to get your hands on this fabulous dress it's still available on the simply be website here.

XOXO

Happy New Year

Happy New Year to you all i hope that you had a great night last night whatever you were doing, I thought i would start the year off with the most amazing dress ever!
I first saw this dress at Plus North when Becky modelled it for Scarlett & Jo and since then i was in love, as soon as it came out i knew i had to have it.

I got this in a size 20 as i wanted it to be really fitted, the 20 is perfect and fits like a glove. The dress is so amazing, the mesh sleeves and neckline show some skin so your not 100% covered up. And the velvet is so soft to the touch i just want to wear this dress everyday.

There is also a thigh high split down one side which shows off some leg without wearing a short dress. I'm 5 4'' and this dress is floor length on me without dragging. If i had to pick one dress from my wardrobe that would make me feel like a million dollars it would most definitely would be this one!

This dress ha sold out in a lot of sizes on the Evans website but keep checking as there might be a few returns after the new year. 

I had some amazing opportunities in 2013 and met some of the most amazing people and if it wasn't for this blog i wouldn't have had the chance, so i just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone who reads and comments on the blog and to everyone who has supported me.

Big thank you to you all and here's to an amazing 2014! 

XOXO
