OOTD

Afternoon campers! 

What a lovely autumn days we have had of late..

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'.

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.

Once the wether turns I think this will be a dress I wear a lot with thick tight and boots, but for now I wore it with a pair of leggings and what seems like the only shoes I own at the moment!

What I wore - 

Dress - ASOS Curve

Cardigan - George £12

Leggings - H&M £6.99

Shoes - Evans

OOTD - Autumn is upon us...

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!

Cosy jumpers, oversize knits, woolly tights and boots. All things that make Toni happy!

Whilst on one of my many weekly trips to Asda I saw this jumper and just had to have it!

It has fluffy shoulders!!!!!

Friday drinky poos!

On Friday I paid a visit to my Bestie. She has had a bit of a shitty 6 month so I took her out for tea to cheer her up a bit!

Unfortunately the snow put a bit of a downer on things as we live quite far away and had to think about getting home.

Saying that though, we had a fab time!

I went straight from work and kept my 'dress down' wears on!

I had an episode of missing my boot cut jeans, so was over the moon when I found these at the clothes swap. They are my comfy clothes item. 

As you can see, I so eloquently took my photo in the toilets of the pub we had tea in!

Cardigan - George at Asda

Fa(t)shionologie Month Two!

Fatshionologie is a blogger style challenge born out of a discussion on twitter in the hopes that it would help us create exciting new content for our blogs as well as show that each new style 'theme' can be  rocked by a variety of different body shapes!

This month theme was Bargains! 

I was quite excited when I suggested this theme as I knew that the Clothes Swap was going to be the weekend before.

I got this lovely lovely Elephant print dress from the swap.....I'm not sure who took it to the swap but THANK YOU! It's originally from ASOS Curve.

It's only a size 20, a size smaller that I normally wear, but it just fits, well its a little snug over the bouys, but not too bad!

I have to confess that I didn't actually wear this today. I'm off to Manchester tomorrow to look at venues for Plus North and I am wearing this!

Dress - ASOS Curve - Free

Tights - M&S - £4.50 (sale)

Cardi - George - Old (£8?)

Lazy OOTD

On Friday me and Becky visited the Very HQ in Liverpool  to meet with the So Fabulous team (which you will hear lots more of in a few days). Becky and her dad very kindly picked me up on route and away we went!

I want to wear something warm but comfy and found the perfect jumper at George.

George always have lush jumpers and this one is no exception.

For some reason I didn't get a picture on Friday, so I wore the same outfit today to go to the cinemas with my sister!

Its a lovely Arron knit and very oversized. I got the 20/22 but a 16/18 would have been more than big enough.

You can't see here but the jumper has lovely batwings and is slightly longer at the back.

I wasn't too sure when I first put it on but the cosiness of it made me love it!

What do you think? Are you a fan of oversized knits?

Supermarket clothing ranges are one of my fave places to shop. Their ranges are pocket friendly and the lines are up dated almost weekly!

On a recent trip to my local Tesco I spotted this dress and had to have it! If it looks familiar it's because some one wore the same dress to Plus North!

I got the dress in my usual size 22. It's a tad to big but love it anyway.

It was über comfy and I got comments on it all day!

Dress - £10 Tesco

Cardi - £12 Asda

Shoes - Primark

Leggings - Next

OOTD - F&F AW12 Press Day Pt 1

Yes, you read that right! I am doing this post in three parts!!!!!!

I have a confession first however..... Yesterday was my first time ever in London....well I have been to Wembley but that doesn't count!

I was like a Japanese tourist! Just ask Becky and Mhairi! It was amazing though, and I can't wait to go back at the end of the month!

My first post is my outfit post. I wanted to wear something comfy and kinda 'trendy' too, so I went for the nautical style.

Denim Jacket - Simply Be (last season)

Stripy shirt - Evans (old)

Navy Linen trousers - George (via eBay)

Navy and red pumps - Next

Necklace - Life's Big Canvas

This isn't the outfit I originally planned to wear but I have lost my black shoes so had to re think at the last minute!

OOTD - Back To Black

I was feeling more than a little bit rubbish yesterday. Partly due to the fact that I only have a few days until I go on holiday, and partly due to a change in meds, and my mood was totally reflected in my choice of outfit.....All black!

I hate wearing my 'normal' clothes to work so generally stick to wearing black trousers and a top, I occasionally like to wear something a bit different.

As you can see I have a face like thunder!

I love this dress though. It was one of my recent purchases from Simply Be.I teamed it with my trusty legging and black cardi and a pair of flat black.

OOTD

Last night me, the boy and his family went out for a meal to the lovely Birchwood Farm in Castleford (behind xcape).

I was exhausted after a busy day and work and literally had 5 minutes to get ready.

I decided to put on my New Look Inspire Bird print dress. I know this dress has done the rounds within the plus size circle, but look at it! Its beautiful!

I actually got mine from eBay for the bargain price of £10 inc postage.

I wore it with my Next Leggings and flats from George at Asda. I also had my denim jacket with me but didn't wear it as it was too warm.

I also got a new nail polish this week! Its from my beloved Barry M and is like a peppermint green!

Just before I go I have to show you some of the desserts that are available at Birchwood Farm.

GIANT CHEESECAKE!

It was so big I took half of it home!
