Growing Up Easy

Dress - Missguided (last year) 

Boots - New Look (sale) 

Hair - Babyliss Hair Extensions in "Light Blonde"

It's getting to that point in my life when I'm starting to realise that my friends are growing up. Over the last 12 months things have started to change. Nights out have been replaced with mid week bookclub, vodka and skittles swapped for wine and cheese, weddings are being planned, houses bought and the some are even having children!

Last Sunday was the day of my friend Rachel's baby shower. A day to officially confirm that she will soon become a mother and is therefore more grown up than the rest of us put together! It's absolutely terrifying and totally amazing in equal measure.

In my mind baby showers are a bit of a nondescript when it comes to dress code and quite tricky to dress for, but in the end I opted for this old Missguided skater dress. It was on my lust list for Summer 2013 but by the time I finally got my hands on it, the weather had turned and the poor thing's been sitting in my cupboard waiting for it's moment ever since!

My ratty old hair extensions made a reappearance *mental note - must buy a new set soon* and I topped the the whole look off with my New Look stomper boots to stop it becoming EVEN MORE frothy and girlie.

The whole day was lovely. We ate baby food, chose baby names, unwrapped presents and serenaded the momma to be with tunes from Frozen before heading home clutching our party bags!


I can't wait to meet the little one (not long now!) and with aunties like these it's going to be the best dressed bub around!

Dancing On My Own

Two Piece - Missguided HERE and HERE

Shoes - Primark 

Belt - Primark 

I'm back! Apologies for the total lack of bloggage over the last two weeks, I hope absence really does make the heart grow fonder!

This beautiful lace two piece is one of those outfits that I bought back at the start of the year on a whim. It's been sitting in my cupboard for a fair few months waiting for a suitable occasion and I only recently made the decision to wear it out to a friend's gig. 

The truth is I was scared. This outfit is ridiculously unforgiving what with it's skintight nature and crop-gap the perfect size for a fat roll to creep through. Even with spanx every lump and bump is visible.This was an outfit to be worn amongst friends in a casual environment. I know some of you may be thinking, why wear it at all if you're not comfortable, but I refuse to intimidated by clothes especially when I've already paid for them! Does anyone else feel the same? 

But in the end I manned up, bit the bullet, paired it with my trusty Primark "Vans" to avoid any further awkwardness and danced the night away!

This is what I wore for a day out in London last weekend.

"Oh Lawd, another Missguided T shirt dress" I hear you cry! Well I'm sorry, you'd better get used to it as I am o.b.s.e.s.s.e.d with these bad boys!

Some might say these dresses are a little shapeless but I DIY'd a cinched waist with an old Primark shirt and topped off the whole look my aztec backpack and cut out boots.

Shirt - Primark Mens

Boots - Matalan

Backpack - Primark

This was the most perfect outfit for a day out in this changeable weather as you can layer up or down in the blink of an eye. I honestly think these dresses are such good staple pieces that can be styled for so many different occasions - to prove my point and justify my love for them I'm planning on putting toghether a "5 ways I style these" post...watch this space!

What do you think of this look?

Dress - Missguided HERE

Boots - Matalan (v v v v v old)

Cardigan - New Look (last year)

On Sunday I turned 24. As I'm getting on a bit I decided not to have a heavy night out clubbing 'til the early hours but instead to spend the day mooching in the sunshine with my family and our little bundle of scruff Hector!

If you're going to spend the day mooching, you need to be comfortable and this Missguided T shirt dress is made for just that! I ordered both the black and the white the other day and I know that they'll become a staple for the rest of the summer. They're really good quality, made of thick cotton with roll sleeves and a ribbed neck and cost less than £16! Mine are 10s and the length is the only thing that I'm not totally sold on as there's no shape to these dresses at all, the mid length could lead to a serious case of frumpery if I'm not careful. I think the white one will eventually be turned up a couple of inches...eventually... 

These dresses are made to throw on and they hide bellies full of birthday cake - it's a double thumbs up from me! I'm also lusting after this one from MG and this one from Never Fully Dressed. 

The pendant necklace I'm wearing was a gift from my parents, a little bunny looking at the moon, fitting eh?!
