OMCZ # 30

Hi





The next OMCZ challenge was chosen by Erin and the theme is one item - three ways.
 
"Blogging about fashion while living on a budget can be difficult. There is a lot of pressure to keep up with trends and be the first to display a relevant piece. Because it does not suit my finances or lifestyle to constantly purchase new items, I love creating multiple looks around one piece to really stretch the life of my wardrobe. I challenge all of you to create a 'One Item + Three Ways' look to either showcase an item through multiple seasons, or for multiple occasions."




So, I got slightly excited when I saw this theme as I've done a post similar to this challenge before!

I was actually meant to use the black skirt as my one piece but I'm also using the gold vest top as well so I might cheat and call my skirt and top 'one piece'!
 
 
 The vest top is a really old one from New Look, it's been in the back of my drawers unworn for about 3/4 years now, this top has seen quite a few nights out so I can never bring myself to throw it away! The skirt was a purchase from Asda last year, as per usual we went food shopping and I came home with an extra bag full of clothes, I swear trolleys are like a magnet for clothes in supermarkets! Well that's my excuse anyway!

Enough rambling here are my 3 outfits from my ummm one piece!

Pretty in red

Hi! We paid a visit to the lovely town of Cirencester a few weeks ago. Whilst we were there we had a quick wonder around and also managed to pop into a shop or two! I haven't had much luck with charity shop finds this year, every time I see something nice it's never in my size..bah! Anyway I saw a British Heart Foundation and thought I would have a quick look in. The first thing I saw was this gorgeous top, it was originally from M&S and still had the tags on. I didn't try it on as I thought it looked big enough and at £3.99 I had to snap it up! I paired it with this pretty skirt I bought from the New Look sale a few weeks ago. This was going to be my Plus North day outfit but unfortunately I didn't get a chance to wear it. I forgot I had a white bra on! Do you ever shop in charity shops? Much Love N x

Food | Breakfast Time!

Hi, A good weekend for me starts with a good breakfast, not just a bowl of cereal but creamy eggs on toast, juice and maybe a pastry or two! If you follow me on Instagram you will see that most weekends I post stories of Mr C and I at our favourite breakfast spot, The Batch Café. We first discovered the Batch back in 2017 after spotting it on Instagram. I said to Mr C that we had to add it to our list of places to try. Our first visit was late one Saturday morning so it was more brunch than breakfast. Mr C opted for a ploughman's lunch and I went with my favourite, scrambled eggs on toast. I'm super fussy when it comes to scrambled eggs, I love fresh eggs with a bit of salt and pepper, they have to be creamy but not too runny and piping hot. I have been to many places where I have left my eggs, if I can't tick all of the above then I won't eat them. As soon as I tried the ones at the Batch I told Mr C we would be coming back. The eggs were perfectly cook

Flash the flesh!

When a group of bloggers join together for a chat you know that the final result has to be super! So this happened once more when a few days ago we were talking about our prefences between mini and maxi and Becky thought that it would be great to create a challenge where the goal was to show a little but more skin and our body(but with style and no vulgarity) showing proudly our curves. And so 'flash the flesh' was born! I went outside because a few weeks ago I went out in a dress with tights and some random man decided to shout out that I had fat legs! Since then I have been feeling slightly self conscious about my legs so when the idea of flash the flash came up I thought why not step outside, flash my little 'fat' legs and get my confidence back! It was quite difficult today as it was so windy but here are my pics (and please excuse my wind swept hair!) and I had to put my jacket on after coming out because it was a little chilly! Here are the links to the oth
