OMCZ #29 Pastels

This fortnights OMCZ was chosen by Hollie. I cant stress how much I love pastels. Any time of the year, I'm constantly trying to incorporate them in somewhere. (Hence the pastel peach hair!)

This is what Hollie said;

                                    Pastels are here for Spring & Summer but I'd love some inspiration from you lovely ladies. I want to see you florish in fondant colours. Pinks, Mints, Sky Blues... the list goes on. I don't want to hide away this Summer so this will be good practise!

I thought about wearing something simple like a pastel coloured dress but thought that would be a little safe. This outfit I chose is my everyday wear whilst being a busy mum. Black tops hide splatters and sticky fingerprints that i'm usually sporting at the end oi the day! This is also the first time I got to wear my beautiful new cut out boots from Simply Be. As soon as I spotted hologram shoes I knew I had to have some but held out until I found something that I really loved. These fit the bill perfectly. Cant wait to wear them with other outfits throughout the summer.

Vest; H&M

OOTD FT A message to haters

So after reading some of the absurd comments coming left, right and center on the Evans Facebook page, I decided to base my outfit on one comment.
It was all coming from the launch of their new Cut for Evans range, which features great items that are full of bold and over the top prints and clashing colours. For me, this is a total dream! But it seems it is not for everyone and that too, is just fine. What I dont like, however, is fellow fat (or not) girls, bashing other girls about what we should and shouldn't be wearing. Do I wear 'flattering' clothes? No. Do I hide under shapeless tents? No. Do I wear lots of patterns and make myself stand out? Yes!!
One comment in particular really made me chuckle. The lady said us 'big' girls should not be seen in jumpsuits, sheer cuts and OTT prints. Just because there is more to us larger ladies, do we have to hide behind black, shapeless tents, bootcut jeans and the such?
I could of chose an outfit that used some of my more bolder colours to demonstrate a point, in that they do indeed work for us but instead chose items that were sheer and featured...wait for it.....MESH! GAAASSSP!!!!

                       Dress;       H&M
                       Shirt;         Primark
                       Leggings;  F+F
                       Boots;        Ebay

The shirt is amazing. It has the cut out/waterfall thing going on so is long at the back and cropped at the back. The dress is a super stretchy skater dress with mesh neckline and sleeves. I personally think I look pretty good. Should we really stick to frumpy clothes and hide away just to keep it safe? Come off it. I have it and I'm flaunting it. And you know what I say to those who think they can tell me otherwise.....

..... Kiss me fat ass!  x

Heart print for St Valentines Day

                               Cardigan;  Vintage
                               Vest ;         H&M
                               Necklace;  H&M
                               Trousers;   Asos Curve
                               Boots;        Ebay

So as its the day of 'love', I thought I would don my favourite yet most comfortable trousers. Verging on pj status, I purchased these from Asos Curve. They are far too long, too baggy and the pockets fall inside out constantly. Do I mind? Not much. I run around after a one year old all day so they do the job just fine. Plus they are adorned in tiny hearts. 
The cardigan is a charity shop find that I got a couple of years ago. Ultimate in coziness! Boots are my newest purchase from an Ebay store. Loving cutout boots right now!
Did you choose to wear anything 'themed' for this so called day of love? x
