Style | Scarlett & Jo Dress


Hi

Back in March I made my way to Birmingham to meet some wonderful ladies for a PS blogger day out shopping!

It was an great day, I can't remember the last time I laughed so much whilst shopping and more importantly felt comfortable.

So, whilst we were in Evans we all decided to try on some Scarlett & Jo dresses. It's been a while since I tried any of their dresses since I did this review.

I knew when I saw this dress on Hollie from Pretty Big Butterflies that I would have to purchase it. The print and colour are stunning, something quite different to what I would normally go far.



Trying it on

Then I saw a tweet from Kat - A Curvy Cupcake saying that the dresses were on sale! I did a little happy dance when I saw this one was down to £20! I ordered a size 22 and 24 as I couldn't remember what size I tried on in Birmingham.






LOVE!!

I absolutely adore this dress. The way it fits makes me feel so good, I love the way it nips in at the waist and flares at the bottom. It's probably a little shorter than I like but I can forget about that as it's so lovely!


It also has small shoulder pads, I normally hate shoulder pads with a passion. I've had quite a few items with them in and always cut them out. They work on this dress though, they add to the shape of the dress in a very subtle way.
 
Unfortunately I couldn't see it on the website anymore but there were lots of other lovely dresses which you can take a peek at here!
 
Much Love

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!

Image
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
