Polka Dots and Red Lips.

Dress: Vivien of Holloway. Top: M&Co. Shoes: Matalan. Brooch: Vintage. Flower slide: Primark.

At the start of the month I was looking at the lovely blog DIY Fatshion by Dani (go check her out shes so sweet!) and saw her Polka dot get up and felt totally inspired by her. Of course I don't own the exact same outfit (If only!) but I certainly own more than enough of my fair share of spotty items, they're like my kryptonite... along with stripes obviously!

The outfit ended up coming out pretty vintage inspired with my beautiful VOH dress which I bought from Rachel who runs A Dress Is For Life and my eBay petticoat under neath. One of my favourite colour combinations is red and monochrome so I added my bargain £2.50 shoes and lashing of red gloss! I just couldn't resist blowing you all a kiss as a thank you for following me and putting up with my ramblings! As I've just reached 400 GFC followers today, SO CHEERS!

For once I don't have much else to say, first time for everything right! It was my birthday this weekend I turned the rip old age of 20, but I didn't really plan much as all my friends were still at Uni etc but it was lovely all the same with my family even though it rained! Hopefully I'll have some snaps from our day out up soon once I get my hands on them!

Oh My Cleo.

After the lovely Learn The Fit event with Panache us bloggers got a few little treats in the post, including our favourite lingerie piece from one of the collections and a swimwear piece. Of course both of my choices came from the Cleo range. I love the look and fabrics used for them as they're fun and young which are perfect for me at 19 (well 20 next Monday eeek!) The swimwear item was a rather lovely vintage style Bikini, though I'm hunting for the perfect bottoms as the ones that come with it are a little too low rise for my liking but the top is so cute! 

I love Cleo Balconnet Bra's and this Melissa is no exception. As always these are a good fit on me as you can see in the middle image the centre core of the bra sits flush again my chest without a mass of cleavage. Though the usual minus thing being only 2 hooks on the back so it does roll up slightly when I move due to me obviously being very fleshy! The straps are thick and comfortable so do not cut in or twist and I feel well supported. I was originally a little dubious of this bra as it was without any padding and in the past I've not been 100% sold on this kind of bra. I like a little padding just to be sure there's no accidentally nip on when it's chilly but I don't feel quite so conscious in this, I think this is particularly due to the support the bra gives me anyway I'm well upholstered and it shows!

I'm wearing a 38E and a size 18 bottom but I also own Cleo bottoms in a size 16 too. You can also see that I fill the bra without any flat sections, pulling or wrinkling in the fabric. If you're after beautiful bras that fit well and are fun Panache are the people for you! Though as a warning I am a cup size bigger in all panache lingerie where as in other stores I'm a 38DD.

Fat Girl In A Crop Top!

Crop Top: Primark. Skirt: Asos Curve. Necklace: Claires Accessories.

So there has been a bit of fat hate flying around the Internet today so I thought it was about time to pop up these pictures of me in a crop top to show I don't care! Crop tops are currently my fave things ever at the moment, from fitted to loose fit, long sleeved to short I love them all. This Primark number has been worn to death already and for £3.50 I see it as a bargain (ps it washes really well too!) Also I realise there is more pictures than what I normally upload but I was feeling fierce and vain all at the same time!

Styling a crop like this is a safe way to wear the style without feeling too self conscious about it all... Lets be honest I'm so pale that it just looks like a belt! I feel like this will become my new go to for when I want to feel confident along with my usual slick of red lipstick! Jersey skirts are another of my favourites, easy to wear time and time again And the print on this one just makes it more interested and perfect. In my eyes nothing beats being quirky.

Some of you may love this others of you may think I'm insane and that's up to you but currently in myself and at this moment in time I want to push the boundaries within in wardrobe and a little bit of my middle being on show is the start next step high waisted fatkini! And yes I am just casually dancing in the third picture, just loving life to be honest!
