Dungaree Heaven

I really love short dungarees but they can be super hard to find when your above a size 18, last year i bought a pair from Simply Be and i love them but i have always wanted a more distressed looking pair and of course i wanted acid wash because its my favourite. As soon as i saw these on Simply Be i knew i had to have them!

They were perfect, acid wash with a distressed look. I was a little worried they would be too long as the look quite far down the leg on the model online but I'm happy to say that when they came the length was perfect.

I ordered a size 20 and 22 as i wasn't sure how they would fit. As soon as they came i was ripping off the packaging to try them on and they didn't disappoint. The size 20 ones fit me but when i sat down the legs were a little tight as there is no stretch to these at all. The 22 fit a lilt looser all over and are perfect on the legs when i sit so i decided on the size 22 which is my usual size.

I got these using a discount code i had so they only cost me £28 which i think is a total bargain. I would love these in a few more colours a pink acid wash would be perfect!! Although i love short dungarees i have never worn a full length pair but i think i might have to change that as I've seen so many people rocking them out recently.

I wore these out a few days after they arrived to go and do a little shopping and get food with the Mr. As it was a little chilly but i didn't want to take a coat i wore them with my My Little Pony jumper that i got from Primark a while ago. I thought the outfit looked super cute even if i was absolutely boiling by the time we sat down to eat.
If you are in the UK and lucky enough not to be working this bank holiday i hope you all have a great time and enjoy the long weekend!

Pink Acid

I thought i would share with you third colour of the Rosie jeans that i bought from Simply Be last month. I really love these jeans so much i cannot say a bad word about them! I have them in dark indigo and a light acid wash too.

I have been wearing these to work and at weekends too and between the 3 pairs i don't seem to wear much else. I paired these with a top i bought last month from Asda. Its a really cute top and its made from a thin material so its perfect for the office

These jeans are a size 20 and fit really well, i would recommend sizing down in these are they are generous and have lots of stretch to them. They are shown on the website as pink but in real life i think they have more of a purple tone to them. As i have said in my previous posts these jeans are a little long for me as I'm only 5 4'' but it doesn't affect the look of them.

The top was from Asda i can't find it online anymore but if you pop into your local Asda they might still have it in stock. The top is a size 22 and it fits really well i can see this going really well with shorts in summer or tucked into skirts.
Has anyone else tried these jeans, what are your thoughts?

Acid Wash and Polka Dots

As you saw I'm my last post i fell in love with these Simply Be jeans and had to have them in every colour! So today I'm showing you the indigo acid wash ones, these were the first pair i bought and have me totally in love with the "Rosie" style. The fit is great and they really do hug you which i love. My advise on these jeans is to size down one size for a great fit as there are generous with plenty of stretch.

I wore this outfit last week when me and the Mr went to five guys for burgers, which i must add are the best burgers I've ever eaten. These jeans are comfy to travel in and you don't get that dig in at the waist which I've had with other jeans before. Length wise they are a little long for me but only about an inch or two. 

I decided to wear these with my Simply Be jacket which i got a month or so ago.  This blazer is quite thin with some stretch so you can easily size down in this, i went with a 20 and there is still room to add a thicker top underneath if you wanted to. I've been after a polka dot blazer for ages and this one is perfect and it has long sleeves too which is good for the colder months.

As i wanted to add a bit of colour i decided to wear my leopard print top which is also from Simply Be but no longer available. I really loved how this outfit all came together and i love the clash of leopard print and polka dots.

Has anyone else tried the Rosie jeans yet?

The Perfect Jeans

This is a pretty casual outfit that i wore to go to see a late night film with the Mr. I wanted to be warm and comfortable and this outfit hit the spot.

These jeans are amazing!!! I saw them on the Simply Be website and fell in love but i was unsure what size i would need and if they would stretch enough to fit my calves. A few weeks ago i went into the pop up store in Meadowhall and spotted the dark indigo version of these so i picked them up and headed to the changing room. After trying on the 22 in these i decided to size down to a 20 as these are really stretchy and the size 20 still has a fair bit of room in them.

These jeans are super soft with plenty of stretch i have them now in all 3 colours as i simply couldn't resist. These are the light acid wash ones available here for £35 which i don't think is bad for what is basically a second skin. I cannot praise these jeans enough, i was going on about  them so much Lisa has ended up buying them too!

The top is an old one from Evans that I'd actually not worn in forever so i decided to give it an outing although looking at the pictures I'm not sure if it will be one that i keep.

Lastly i wore my super amazing burger trainers which were in that sale for £15 at Schuh. The Mr has been trying to get me into a pair of converse for the last 10 years but I've always resisted thinking the would be uncomfortable or not really me. These however are burgers, so that swayed me and i ordered them. As you can see i haven't fastened them all the way up to the top as my ankles are pretty chunky. I also found them surprisingly comfortable too which is always a bonus.

I hope you are all having a great weekend, having gone out last night to celebrate my birthday I'm nursing a giant hangover right now!

Leeds Pride

Its been a few weeks since Leeds Pride but i wanted to share my outfit with you from the day. This whole outfit has come from New Look inspire. It was nice weather for Leeds Pride but as i had to set off at 8am that morning i took a jacket as i wasn't sure what it would be like later in the day.

This jacket is a size 18 i had to size down by two sizes to get the fit that i wanted. If you want this to be a more oversized jacket then you could always go for your usual size. They had loads in store so if they don't have your size online you could always try your local New Look. 

The jacket is really thin so you won't overheat in it and it you are going away and want to take a jacket this would be perfect. The jacket doesn't have any pockets which is a little disappointing but the cut and bright floral design more that make up for that.

I wore my acid wash shorts which are no longer online and this cute leopard print vest i got last year. The short are a size 20, i had to size down to get them to be fitted due to the stretch material. These are really comfy they are made from the softest material ever! 

The vest is a size 24 and is a good fit for me. It has a nice gold detail around the neckline which is what made me want it last year. I think the leopard and the floral from the blazer went really well together. I also wore a pair of bright pink pumps which i ended up having to throw away, i think i danced the soles right off!

I took lots of pictures on the day which you may have seen if you follow me on instagram if not and you want to follow me you can find me here.

Want Want Want!

I haven't done a wish list type post in a while so i thought id share with you the things that have caught my eye recently.

I love these Chloe acid wash jeans as soon as i saw then i fell in love.

This Ax Paris kimono is perfect and comes in black too.

This maxi dress just screams summer to me, its perfect.

Ever since i got a sample of Agent Provocateur Fatale in a beauty box I've wanted to add it to my perfume collection, it smells so good.

These shoes are too cute!

What are you lusting after at the minute?

Leopard and Denim

I was placing an order on Simply Be a few weeks ago and had a 15% off voucher so decided to add a few things to my basket that i had been looking at and wanting to order for a while. The first is a pair of flip flops, i have been wanting a cute pair that i can wear at work but i didn't want to place an order and pay delivery just for those so i was waiting to add them onto another order.

I pretty much decided these were the flip flops for me the first time i saw them, they looked comfy and they were leopard print so do i really need to say any more!

sorry for the slight blur on the picture I'm not sure why the camera did that

These flip flops are £14 full price and available in E and EEE, i went for a size 5 in the E width and they fit well, they haven't had a proper road test yet but I'm hoping they stay comfy.

The other item i added to my order is this super cute Alice and You acid wash dress i must have looked at it everyday since it first went onto the site and i finally caved and ordered it.

I wasn't sure on the fit so i stuck with my usual size 22 which is a great fit for me, but if you are between sizes you might want to size up as there is no stretch to the material itself. The dress is quite thin so i think it will be great for summer and i can imagine me wearing it with wellies at the festivals.

This dress is quite short but still covers my bum and i don't feel like its going to ride up any minute and flash it either. There is a stretch panel around the middle to give the dress some shape and some cute little cut outs and the sides to make it a little more interesting.

I had been after a cute denim dress for some time and this one ticks all the boxes. I can see this becoming a staple of my summer wardrobe as its really easy to wear and doesn't need anything to add to it. All i need now is my sunnies and I'm ready to go!

Have you added to your wardrobe recently?
