Birthday Girl in Blackpool

A few weekends ago me and Lisa went to Blackpool to celebrate her birthday. We had a lot of fun and many a drink was had! We set off Friday morning like excited kids in the car, i saw the sea first so i totally won that game ( although I'm sure i was the only one playing)
I didn't take that many pictures that weren't selfies or mirror shots but i thought i would share my few pictures with you. If you already follow me on instagram you have probably already seen them.

We had to have fish and chips when we arrived

The Mr had very kindly driven me and Lisa down to Blackpool so we repaid him in fish and chips and warm doughnuts on the way home, he really is the best !

Here was my travelling outfit which is an old Asos curve dress that i just love!

After unpacking we went for a walk around Blackpool and down the pier and of course we stopped for an ice cream! When we got to the end of the pier we spotted several older couples ballroom dancing they looked so sweet and it reminded me of when i used to go with my nan and grandad.

Before we knew it it was time to get ready to party. I wore my new Simply Be cami dress, i really loved it but it was a little weird to be going out in a dress as I'm so used to shorts!

Not sure what i was doing here, but we clearly
party in style check to the hello
kitty cups!

We had such a good night out and i really had a great time, we danced the night away until our feet gave in and we headed back to the hotel. The next morning i was feeling very delicate and took myself down for breakfast at about 7am, never one to shy away from a selfie here i am hungover and hungry!

The next day it did rain unfortunately but it stopped long enough for us to go out and have a look around the shops, buy sticks of rock and snow globes for Lisa. I decided to go for comfit and wore my Yours playsuit.

On Saturday night we headed back out this time i was in my trusty shots and a Simply Be top that i had been lusting over for weeks before it went in the sale a few weeks ago.

Look how cute Lisa looks in the birthday dress

I had the best time ever with my favourite dancing partner, now to decide what town we need to explore next year for my birthday!

Sale Steal

I have had this dress for a few weeks now, i bought it in the sale from Fashion World for a bargain price of £13 as i had a discount code too. I had been eyeing up this dress for months but wasn't sure if id get the wear out of it at full price. Then me and Lisa decided to go to Blackpool for her birthday and i decided to take the plunge.

I got the dress in a size 22 my usual size as i wasn't sure what the fit of a cami dress would be like. When it came i fell in love with the print and feel of the dress but the shape wasn't doing it for me so i decided to add a black belt and then i fell in love.

This dress is really lovely it has a silky satin feel to it but because of this the material doesn't have any stretch to it. It also as two gold chain straps which you can just about see over my bra strap, i'd love to wear this without my bra straps showing but I'm yet to find a strapless bra that actually fits well and that i can keep on all day.

The dress without a belt comes to about my knee but once i added the belt the dress is more mid thigh   which is fine by me. The only downside to this dress is the armpit room, the sides on this dress come down to almost my bra line. I really wish that when people designed clothes for a larger body they stopped making the armpit holes huge! yes we do have bigger arms but trust me we dont need all that armpit gape.

Overall i love this dress and i think it will be perfect to dance the night away in Blackpool! If you fancy getting this dress for yourself it's available online here and it's still in the sale too.

XOXO
