Chi Chi by Sculptresse

They've done it again! Everytime I view the new ranges at Sculptresse by Panache, I fall in love with the prints. It's not just the prints and colours but the shapes, the fabric and the high waisted briefs. I used to dread my old bras breaking as I knew it meant having to go and buy a new one. More often than not, I'd end up just grabbing the nearest, cheapest one I could find, usually in a supermarket. But I soon started to notice that the bra didn't fit right. Or it would start to fall apart in some way.

Then i got measured and my bra buying nightmares were over. Okay so some stores are not always spot on with the fit, and don't forget, not all days are normal boob days!

As stated in my last Sculptresse  review, I've changed shape recently so I'm now on a new perfect size bra mission. I need to get remeasured but I've been too busy to find the time. 

Sculptresse kindly sent me the Chi Chi and boy do I love it!! The fabric is superb quality on the top with a beautiful stretch lace to the top of the cups. The tropical print just screams summer! I ordered a size down but I still feel I need to try another size but unsure if it's the cup or the band.  

             It's gorgeous, right?!

So in the pictures you'll notice that it fits well in the band. Everything sits nice and snug. It's not digging in to my shoulders or my ribs and back. But, it does nothing for the shape of my breasts. If anything, the bra separates them outwards which is telling me that it's the wrong size. They are being held just nicely but that's it. I'm not looking for a cleavage enhancer but it's nice to have a shape! Hopefully once I find my new cup size, I'll once again have my perfect bra. X

Bonkers for Bardot pt1

Until recently I had a bit of an issue with bearing my shoulders. Mine are broad, thick and covered in freckles and I really didn't like them in show. Now I think I was a bit of an idiot and love getting them out. So what if they are big and chunky! No different from any other part of me!

So today I'm wearing a recent purchase. This is a Bardot dress by New Look in the Asos Curve range. (Here)

I instantly fell in love with it tropical print and ive been waiting for just the right kind of day to wear it. Like today! 

Paired with some new gold flats from Primark and a hair clip I made, I'm feeling cool and comfortable and a wee bit cute!

Feeling Tropical in Pink Clove

I think I'm grieving the loss of summer right now and I simply can't get enough of bright prints. So when asked to choose an item from Pink Clove there was one item that immediately caught my eye.

This beautiful tropical print bomber Jacket

It's super comfortable and lightweight and goes with so many outfits! I'm all for layers as I often get hot too easily. 

I wore it on a recent long journey and teamed it with a clashing print and my newly coloured hair. I LOVE this outfit. I'm bringing tropical goodness to these rainy, dull days!
