Casual Kitty

Today brings another outfit from my recent shopping trip, everything is from New Look Inspire. I had seen this hoodie online a few weeks ago and thought it was cute, of course i did its a cat after all !
When i went into New Look last week i decided to give it a try and see how i looked in a hoodie as its not something I've worn in a few years.

I got this hoodie in a size 26 as i wanted something i could snuggle into and layer up underneath it too. It was £19.99 and you can get it online here along with a fox,raccoon and a mouse. I wore this to do some errands on Sunday with these shorts and it was comfy to wear and it meant i didn't need to think about a coat or a jacket.

 I love the fact the hood has cats ears on it as well as the face on the front its just so cute. I would say you need to size up at least once in this unless you want it to be tight fitting even though there is some stretch to it.

The inside of the hood is leopard print which as you know i love so much! These shorts are a size 22 which I've had for quite a while now, they were the first pair i bought and the start of an obsession for me. I'm sure this hoodie will get worn quite a bit as its perfect for those hungover/ or lazy days. 

I realised how much of a crazy cat lady i looked when i was out in this as i had on this cat hoodie, my cat tattoos were to and i had a cat phone case in my hand!

FTF

Flash the flesh is a blogger challenge that came about from the psbloggerschat we have on a Sunday night on twitter, if you haven't got involved them do its lots of fun and everyone is lovely! The topic of conversation that night was if you prefer maxi's or mini's, personally i love both.
Becky suggested a group challenge where we show a bit of skin and be proud with out arms/legs/bellys out.

I knew straight away what i would wear as I'd bought it a few days earlier when i went shopping with the lovely Lisa and Lolly.

The dress is from New Look and i went for a size 24 as i thought the 22 was a bit too tight when i tried it on. Its available online here for £29.99. I love this dress so much it hugs you so well and i love the mesh detail at the top so you can see cleavage without it being too out there :)

I wore this dress with some Irregular Choice heels and my cat ears headband. I feel amazing in this dress and even though i have my legs, arms and some cleavage on show i don't feel like I'm flashing too much. But then is there ever too much ?!

As you can see from the side on picture it is quite a short dress but i love that. I feel proud to show my skin and i don't care if people say a fat girl shouldn't have this much flesh out. I have and i will continue to wear what i want, i dress for me and as long as I'm happy that's all that matters.

Plus Size Outfit Day

It's that time again and the theme for this months plus size outfit day is 'all about polkadots'. It's no secret i love polkadots so i was excited about this months theme.

I had lots of options for this post but i decided to go with a recent eBay purchase, i got this dress for £13.99! 

The dress was brand new with tags on and for £13.99 its much less than i would have paid for it in the shop. The dress was from M&S and is a size 22, which is a perfect fit for me.

The dress is a lovely navy colour, i love navy but i don't have much of it in my wardrobe so this dress is a great addition. It's made from a thick stretch jersey and comes to my mid calf which i love. I wore this with thick black tights and pumps from Primark and my Asos pearl cat ears headband.

This is a really nice dress it will be great when the weather gets a bit warmer too. I did look on the M&S website but i can't find this dress but you could always try eBay and grab yourself a bargain like me.

Do you have a love for polkadots like me ?

Plus size outfit day

The theme for this plus size outfit day is 'lets get ready for Saturday night' . I decided to go with an outfit that i would wear for a night on the tiles. This theme means i can show you a little bit about what i do to get ready for a night out.

So here's my routine...
I always start off with a nice relaxing bath and do my hair, most of the time i just blow dry as i did here but on the odd occasion if i have enough time i will straighten my hair too.
Then comes the hard bit, choosing what to wear

I always have a good look and most of the time i go with the print that stands out to me the most, which on this occasion was leopard print

Once I've decided on what to wear it's time to put my face on. I don't wear very much make up but i do tend to wear a bit more for a night out, here's what i used

MUA eyeshadow palette, false lash effect mascara 

That gal face primer (used on my cheeks) sleek lipstick,GOSH lip primer

Once thats done it's time to put on your party outfit, something that makes you feel amazing and that for me is this dress.

This dress is from Tesco and part of their limited edition range which i find is a little more expensive than the standard range but it still doesn't break the bank at £30. This dress is still available online here so if your after a dress that will hug you in all the right places and make you feel a million dollars head over there and buy it now!

This dress is a 22 and i like how it fits on me it feels like it was made just for me. The material has some stretch with a inner layer to smooth the dress out, i found because of this i didn't have any lines from where my tights sat, sometimes with fitted dress i find you can see where your tights come up to. If you have a fear of the VBO (visible belly outline) this might not be for you as it is fitted. I suppose you could wear control pants underneath if this was an issue for you, but it's not for me so you can see how the dress sits without any shape wear. 

I really love this dress and for £30 you can't go wrong, yet another 10/10 for Tesco from me. Keep up the good work guys :)

After i get dressed i would usually choose my shoes which i have set out on a shelf with the pictures on the outside of the box which makes finding the perfect shoe so much easier.

Now I'm ready to party but i have to add one final piece to my outfit…

No outfit is complete without a set of cat ears and a cheeky poke out of the tongue.

Now you have seen my outfit please check out the other ladies and what they are wearing

Loved up in lace

I'm very lucky to be reviewing a dress from the lovely people at Yours today. I was in contact with them last week about some tights that i had bought from them when they asked if i wanted to pick a dress from the site to review. A dress of my choice ?! i didn't need to be asked twice and i jumped at the chance heading straight to the website to find a dress. There were so many to choose from i wanted them all but i managed to narrow it down and finally settled on this one.

I really love the lace detail and the colour, i chose purple but they also do the dress in black. You can buy the dress online and if your lucky enough to have a store close like me you can also buy it in store.

It's £39 and in my opinion its worth every penny.

Sorry it got dark as i was taking the pictures

The dress is a lovely colour and it looks great on. I went for a size 22 which fits me perfectly, i know from previous experience that the limited collection from Yours usually runs small but i found this true to size. The dress has a stretch lining under a lovely mesh overlay. It also has a dipped hem which doesn't show well in my front on pictures.

You can see the dipped hem in this picture

The dress also has the most amazing lace panel in the back which adds a lovely touch to the dress. I really love this dress and i'm wearing it to a friends wedding party i think its a perfect dress for the occasion, so thank you to Yours for sending it to me, you have saved me a 'what to wear' dilemma!

How gorgeous is the lace?!

I'm wearing this with my new lace cat ears headband and Irregular choice heels. I really love this and it has the approval of my hubby who loves the lace back and colour, what do you think ?

Do you have any plans for the weekend?

This dress was gifted to me for review i was not paid for my opinion all thoughts and views are my own.

Flamingos and kitty ears

Here's my outfit from Sunday me and the hubby went for some breakfast then into town before going to see my family. I decided to wear this dress i got from dorothy perkins a month or so ago. I was priced at £42 but i had a few discount codes so got it for £29 including p&p the dress is now in the sale for £25 but they only have the navy one its here if anyone is wanting to buy it. Now as I'm sure I've said before i do have a habit of buying something, trying it on for a milli second then hanging it up in the wardrobe and thats what i did with this dress. I got it in a size 22 but it is too small for me around the bust, its ok when i have a cardigan on but without one you can see the side of my bra, as i'd only tried it on for such a short time i'd not noticed. Although yes it it too small i still like how it looks and the print is so cute so i will keep it and continue to wear it.

This was the only picture i got without my
cardigan on

I wore my h&m cardigan that i got for £3 in the sale it was the first time id worn it and it was super comfy. I got it in an xl i wasn't sure it was going to fit but for £3 if was worth the risk.

Not sure why i look so scowly here i do try
to smile honestly!

Here is a close up of the material

I also wore my cats ears headband for the first time it was from asos i love the pearls on the ears. A few people did a double take i guess you don't see many people with cat ears sprouting from their head!

A completely silly picture just to make you smile

Do you keep certain outfits even though they are a little small if your in love with the print?

XOXO
