<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">I quite often </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">don't get dressed on a Sunday, especially if the boy is working. On the occasions that I do its generally just a pair of leggings and a top. Now the winter seems to have arrive, said top has turned in to a jumper.</span></span><br />

<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It’s that time of year where the phrase ‘Halloween Fancy Dress Party’ fills me with dread. The mere thought of having to find a fancy dress outfit to sufficiently cover my plus size body without my girly parts been on show is enough to make me have a panic attack. </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">With a fancy dress party just around the corner I decided to have a look at what I could dress up as.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The first place I looked was <a href="http://lingerieseduction.co.uk/">Lingerieseduction.co.uk</a>. As well as a host of Lingerie sell some amazing fancy dress outfits.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: center;">

Just a quicky from me tonight as I am having a horrid day.<br />

These boots are from the <a href="http://www.simplybe.co.uk/shop/legroom-double-buckle-boot-curvy-plus-e/ns703/product/details/show.action?pdBoUid=8402#colour:,size:">Legroom range</a> and retail at £89. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For this pair of boots I decided to get a leg fitting down and try the Curvy Plus in an E fit. Curvy Plus fits up to 518mm calves.</div>

<div>
As you can see on this pair I have less bagging around the ankles and although I would struggle to get a pair of skinny jeans tucked in to these, I actually prefer them.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As with any leather boots they are very stiff and took a few wears before they stopped hurting, but now they fit like a glove.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I will definitely get my wear out of these boots this winter. I never realised how well tan boots go with everything!!!</div>

One thing I find extremely difficult to buy is knee boots. Over the last few years more and more brands have taken the plunge and stocked wide and extra wide calf boots.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Last year I was lucky enough to review a variety of different wide calf boots that were on the market.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This winter there seems to be an even wide choice of boots available to women with wide calves. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The first pair that I am looking at are these <a href="http://www.simplybe.co.uk/shop/legroom-quilted-high-leg-boot-extra-curvy-plus-eee-fit/ns684/product/details/show.action?pdBoUid=8402#colour:Black,size:5">beauties from Simply Be</a>.</div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I ordered these boots with the intention of returning them once I had tried them on and taken pictures. However, once I had tried them on it quickly became clear they weren't going to get returned!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I ordered the Extra Curvy Plus in an EEE fitting. The calf sizes on these boots is 556mm, which is 55cm. I ordered the bigger calf fitting with the hope that I could tuck my skinny jeans in to them.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I can easily fit jeans in to them. I could have actually tucked jeans in to the next size down, which fits up to 522mm.</div>

As you can see from the first picture they are slightly baggy around the ankle to that only due to the fact that the EEE fitting is very very generous.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For £65 these boots really are value for money. They look great will dresses, jeggings and skinny jeans.</div>

Shortly after Plus North, bonprix contacted me and asked if I would be interested in taking part in a style challenge to promote there #wearityouway campaign.<br />
<br />
I love reading these types of posts to see how different bloggers create a outfit from one main item.<br />
<br />
Myself, Becky, Betty, Elena and Kaye were all sent this lovely <a href="http://www.bonprix.co.uk/product/striped-jersey-midi-dress-952540/?type=image&return=ref&source=f">stripy jersey dress</a> to style.<br />
<br />

I could have worn this dress a number of ways but I went with classic meets edgy by wearing it with a vintage biker jacket and knee boots.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtRhZWgidkPQ6NwEDgkR0DFW7jxk1D6pNiD6erk3tk9-1dD39q3v29ATyxiBzjmKcjca3L886_gfkFdGRX9OzRFBhBZb4KN6y-TEdBQXyPolgPMfXUib5PoMBAccGwO3PtyaXEzsiCGocY/s1600/20131010_154058.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtRhZWgidkPQ6NwEDgkR0DFW7jxk1D6pNiD6erk3tk9-1dD39q3v29ATyxiBzjmKcjca3L886_gfkFdGRX9OzRFBhBZb4KN6y-TEdBQXyPolgPMfXUib5PoMBAccGwO3PtyaXEzsiCGocY/s640/20131010_154058.jpg" width="360" /></a></div>
<br />
I ordered the dress in a size 22/24 as its only available in dual sizes and its fit really well and I was quite surprised. The dress retail at £34.99 which is rather high for a jersey dress, but its quite heavy jersey so I think It will keep its shape well.<br />
<br />
A big bonus for me is that it has 3/4 sleeves. Which gives me the opportunity to wear it to work and not have to wear a cardigan. The dress also has a cute little coral zip on one of the shoulders.<br />
<br />
What I wore...<br />
<br />
Dress - bonprix*<br />
Biker Jacket - Vintage via eBay<br />
Leggins - New Look Inspire<br />
Boots - Simply Be<br />
<br />
Why not see how the other ladies styled there dress...<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
When I started blogging I wasn't in a very good place confidence wise. I wanted, and needed, to feel better about myself. I became part of the 'plus size' community long before I started blogging and seeing photos of clothes on women I could relate to really opened my eyes. Still to this day I search blogs of someone the same size as me before I make a purchase to try and get an idea of how something will look on me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I was introduced to BeauCoo. A body confidence site for every women.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Over the last few few years my body confidence has no doubt grown, and all though I am still not 100% happy with my body, and as the founder Victoria says, its about feeling good about yourself at the moment you are at now, sites like BeauCoo definitely make it easier to gain more #BoPo as well as gaining style ideas at the same time.</div>

By simply entering your measurement you can find other women with the same measurements as you. So the the sizes, either end of the scale, are a little light on the the ground, but as this site grows, I am sure the fit matches will too!</div>

I am itching to get all my winter clothes out and I'm a bit stuck in the transitional period at the moment. Its chilly enough for long sleeves, but too warm to go all out 'winter'.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yesterday I had a dig though my wardrobe and found this beaut that I had forgotten about. I think I bought it in the summer sale from ASOS. I remember it was a firm favourite when it came out.</div>

I have to admit, since I started blogged and especially in the last 6 month, I have become an avid dress wearer.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I dont know if its because of the gained confidence or the fact they make me feel more girly, but around 70% of my wardrobe is now dresses!!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
My latest offering comes from the one and only Simply Be. As always I know that I can rely on Simply Be when I want dresses... I am currently lusting after about 7!!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This dress is available in three different prints. This one is the bows and spot print.</div>

On Saturday night I had a rare night out with three of my best friends. We don't see each other as much as we would like to but when we do get together it always gets messy. Saturday night was no exception.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I always have a battle with myself when it comes to picking an outfit, so decided to only take one option with me.</div>

Whilst recently browsing on the Simply Be website I came across this <a href="http://www.simplybe.co.uk/shop/animal-print-fishtail-top/rm409/product/details/show.action?pdBoUid=8851&promo=1116&cm_mmc=GoogleBase-_-SimplyBe-_-Product%20Feeds-_-na&CAWELAID=520003940000263116&cagpspn=pla&gclid=CN-46OLM87kCFbMbtAodaycARg#colour:Print,size:">beautiful fishtail top</a> in the sale for £19.</div>

There are many reasons I love to travel abroad. The Sun. New places to explore. New People. A new culture. The list could go on and on. One of the things I really love about travelling is the sense of 'family spirit' that you see. Whether it be around the pool, in restaurants or on the beach. There is something free about being on holiday. I don't know if its due to the fact the the stresses of work are forgotten or that the best of people seem to come out when they are relaxed or maybe a bit of both. But it makes me happy. One of things the makes me happy is when other people are happy and laughing. They say laughter is infectious. And right now I could really do with catching that infection!<br />

As a few of you may know, Scarlett and Jo recently launched their new power fit dresses and I was lucky enough to be asked if I would like to try the <a href="http://www.evans.co.uk/en/evuk/product/new-in-250467/scarlett-jo-250887/scarlett-jo-black-spot-yoke-powerfit-dress-2273978?bi=1&ps=24">Black Yoke Powerfit dress</a>.<br />
<br />
Available from Evans, the dress now comes in a multitude of colours and prints and is a staple item for every wardrobe. Some of the dresses, including this one, also feature the new mesh lining.<br />
<br />
For some reason I get total bitch face when I wear these kind of dress...<br />

I did find the dress was true to size, but I think for comfort I would have preferred a size bigger.<br />

Yep, that right! My favourite time of year! As much as I love sunshine and hot weather, I am kinda glad autumn is upon us!<br />
<br />
Cosy jumpers, oversize knits, woolly tights and boots. All things that make Toni happy!<br />
<br />
Whilst on one of my many weekly trips to Asda I saw this jumper and just had to have it!<br />
<br />
It has fluffy shoulders!!!!!<br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">A few weeks ago Vicky put a call out on twitter to see if anyone was interested in a new blog challenge...</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">Compared to other challenges, this one is a bit different..</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><i>You know sometimes when you spend ages getting ready for a night out, an event or even just a blog post, and the reflection in mirror isn't what you hoped? This challenge is for those times when you look in the mirror, no pre planning involved, and think "I look good today".We all have our good days and our bad, but this challenge is to record those good days and to remember that confidence, at any size, is beautiful.</i></span><br />
<i><br style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; text-align: -webkit-auto;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">The only 'rule' for this challenge is that you shouldn't use any photograph that you have used before. It can be an old photo or a new photo, as long as when you took it, you felt that you looked great.</span></i><br />

As I already mentioned in yesterdays post, last Saturday was the day that me and Becky had been working hard to organise for the last year! PLUS NORTH!<br />
<br />
From all the blogs and pictures I have seen I think we can call this years event a success, even if I do say it myself!!<br />
<br />
Through blogging I have been lucky to build some fantastic relationships with brands. None more so then Simply Be. I kid you not, half of my wardrobe is made up of Simply Be and my bank account definitely knows when it payday and I have to pay my account!!<br />
<br />
As Simply Be were one of our main sponsors this year they kindly offered to dress me for the day event.<br />
<br />
I fell in love with the Project D London Piccadilly dress but sadly it was, and still is out of stock :-(<br />
<br />
As an alternative I picked another Project D dress. The Lincoln Maxi dress from the past season.<br />
<br />
As always, when you have your heart set on something and then it doesn't happen I was a tad gutted, and until Saturday morning I still wasn't 100% sure that I liked the dress.<br />
<br />
But I have to say it felt faaaabbbulous on! I received loads of compliments on the dress!<br />

I could have maybe done with a pin to cover my modesty around the boob area, but apart from that I am glad I stuck with the dress and wore it!!<br />
<br />
What do you think?<br />

Helllooooo...<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
After a crazy few month with Plus North and moving house I think I have finally got my blog mojo back and am ready to bang out some posts!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As most of you know Plus North was last Saturday 7th September, in Manchester (post's to follow!)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The stunning <a href="http://www.blogger.com/(http://www.frivolousmrsd.com)">Elena</a> and I were sharing a room and I very nicely asked her if she would perform some magic and beautify me for the event!<br />
<br />
For those of you that don't know, Elena is a beautician and runs <a href="https://www.facebook.com/thevanitycasenorthants">The Vanity Case</a>.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
After deciding on a brow shape and tint, eyelash tint and individual lashes and a Gel manicure and pedicure Elena began to make me over!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Unfortunately I failed to get any pictures on my nails, but I had them a lovely Seafoam green ...</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here are my toes.... AMAZING!!! </div>

Last weekend was my my grandma's 85th birthday and to celebrate the family got together and went to the local pub for a meal.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
A few weeks before I was very kindly sent a few items from Simply Be to review.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
One of the items I received was the <a href="http://www.simplybe.co.uk/shop/project-d-london-queens-print-maxi-dress-length-54-inches/uc326/product/details/show.action?pdBoUid=7992#colour:Floral%20Print,size:">Project D London Queens print dress</a>. When the Project D line first came out I wasn't 100% sure It was to my taste, but the more I look at it the more I want the rest of the range!!</div>

I got so many compliments on the dress during the day. It left amazing on and although there was a lot of ruffled feather at the price tag when they first came out, you can definitely feel where the extra money has been spend.</div>

As part of the Arcadia Group, Evans was founded in 1971 and now have over 300 stores across the UK and Ireland.<br />
<br />
As well as stocking own brand, Evans also stock Scarlett and Jo, Live Unlimited and many more including Capsule collection from Clements Ribeiro.<br />
<br />
In the last few year I personally feel that Evans have upped their game massively in terms of been fashionable, and with the collections that they stock I can only hope that this continues.<br />
<br />
For this spotlight post I though I would pull together an outfit for the new range.<br />
