The Jumper or Sweater Dress
Happy Monday Guys!!. I hope the week has started off well for you. Never Have I felt it more right now than the need to feel as ‘Snug As A Bug In A Rug’ with the fires lit and and the dark early evenings and mornings, my body and mind just need comfort, I think that resonates with a lot of us. So for me a Jumper dress gives me all the comfort and snug-ability (I know I make up a lot of words!) That I need for this time of year. This Dress I Picked up from Zara a few weeks ago, sadly it has completely sold out, but I do have some alternatives for you that I have been converting (similar). Believe or not this Jumper dress is a Small and it completely drowns my petite frame, but hides all the bits that I’m just not keen on. I paired it with these ‘oh so comfy’ Leather High Heel Ankle Boots from Zara ( I promise I don’t have shares in that place!!) to balance the bulkiness of the jumper. I also popped on my Bag of the moment from Camelia Roma Tracolla its really deceiving as it holds all my essentials when it is just me,myself, and I.

Don’t you just love it when you pull out one of your favourite dresses and a light bulb goes off in your head, ‘why not wear it like this’. With a flash you have got yourself a whole new look without even spending any pennies. This is what happened to me the other day. I was planning what to wear the night before ( I have to otherwise I would look like a bag of washing as I am everyone else personal stylist,hairdresser,maid,cook,cleaner,and the list goes on, that I don’t have time to think about me) and it hit me to team this together.

I bought this dress from Miss Guided last year and just wore as the purpose intended, as a dress. I love when an old fave can be re-used and look and feel completely different. I teamed with all my favourites blazer,loafers, comfort dressing with a little bit of oomph that my Miss Guided stripe shirt dress gives me.

& Other Stories
As anyone in our industry are well aware Wedding Season is in full swing, and it got me thinking that we are always harping on about what the Bride will wear,and bow she looks, but what about the Guests?? I know at my wedding I really loved that my guests wore hats and seemed to of really “gone to town” as it were, with their outfits. It made me feel as the Bride, that all my preparations were not in vain. Maybe your not looking for a wedding, but you need something for a special occasion that you have coming up. I think I can help with that.
Recently, & Other Stories opened up a branch in Manchester city centre. You could here the cheers around when they finally opened their doors!. That now us Northerners can now have the opportunity to shop at another stylish store. This is a new brand to me, but it was its mix of fast fashion with strong tailoring, that drew my eye to this brand. Its collections are designed by ateliers in Paris and Stockholm. Quality really is the buzz word here coming at a affordable price, so when they opened in Manchester I could not resist a sneak peek.

My Special Occasion Choice
The outfit I chose is very much my signature style. Not alot of flesh on show to cause offence, but always a glimpse of some skin, so as not to look to prudish. This dress fits the bill. The Open back dress is such a stylish number. The fit and quality of the fabric really makes it a comfy garment. With its bat winged sleeves keeping wobbly arms under wraps. The fastening around the waist to highlight and make your waist appear smaller than it is. This dress makes me feel sophisticated and ready for my special occasion.

I teamed it with & Other Stories new range of shoes and bag. I have been looking for a comfortable yet stylish sandal for a while and these Croco-Embossed Almond Toe Sandals are right up my street. The Croco effect seems to feature heavily in the New season shoes and bags. Which for me is a bonus as then they are more forgiving to scuffs and scrapes. The wooden block heels gives a nice height but also feels incredibly comfy too wear. I chose them in red, as I have not found a red pair of shoes for along time that floated my boat. I am always looking to inject a little colour into my wardrobe from time to time. That’s where the colour theme stops, because the bag I chose is Black. This bag is a cross body bag but I have made it into a clutch so you can see how versatile it is. The Croco Cross Body bag is a welcome member to my bag family and is already getting a hammering, I cant stop wearing it!! It fits in everything a girl needs for the day.

I think you can see I am thoroughly impressed with & Other Stories and I will be keeping my beady eye out for Autumn/Winter 16. So these are my pieces that I chose to wear for my special occasion, whether that’s as a Wedding Guest, Dinner Date or just glamming it up for the evening. Have you heard of & Other Stories? Have you visited the new Manchester Branch yet? Would you wear this outfit? Let me know in the comments below. I loved to hear from you.

With Coachella heralding the start of Festival season, many are deciding what festival to attend and what comes to most women’s lips ‘What am I going to wear?’ Then there’s me, not the most outdoorsy type, festivals always seemed a place where you looked your worst, by not washing for 2 days!. Now things are so much more civilised and there are more festivals geared up for just healthy living like the Wilderness Festival and Unplugged Festival. This is more my stamp, so it got me thinking, what would I wear should the occasion arrive?, and like a bolt of lightning, while standing in the queue at my local Marks and Spencer on a Saturday afternoon dragging my pre-pubescent daughter around looking for some new summer wear. This dress called to me. Hanging there in all its floral glory. It’s Marks and Spencer Floral Printed Maxi Dress, the fabric is soft and hangs beautifully not clinging to any lumps and bumps, it is so flattering if you are on the busty side too!. It’s a steal at just £39.50 and to me the 70’s floral print is something that will not go out of fashion, so i’ts a great key piece to add to my capsule wardrobe.

I will be the first to admit to being a little on the short side the thought of wearing a ankle grazing pant fills me with dread. Until I came across these Camel coloured Culottes from River Island. The soft fabric,the billowing leg,the beautiful camel colour just had me. These trousers are so comfy and versatile I knew they were going to be a key piece to my wardrobe.

My first choice would be something I would wear for work, out for drinks or a shopping trip.

With Spring now banging at the door the shade Pink and a SKIRT has begun to creep back into my Wardrobe. The shade Pink was always a colour I feared most when growing up. I was always fighting the cause of not being a girly girl, and was more into climbing trees and making ropes swings, so PINK to me, was just not doing it for me. Then fast forward to my wedding. Here I was going to make one of the most important decisions of my life, No, not saying YES that was a given (he is a Hairdresser, what is there not to love) but what will be my colour theme for the up and coming nuptials. There it was winking at me and not to be the one to follow the crowd I blurted out “its going to be PINK.” My florist just starred, and said “but Pink hasn’t been done for years” I knew then I had made the right choice.
Back to the present and last summer I purchased this little Gem from George @Asda. When Autumn arrived I stored it away as lace always comes around every Spring/Summer, I knew it was a keeper. So here we are and low and behold Pink is back, and so is Lace. With this in mind I thought I would put together 3 ways of wearing this great skirt.
