OOTD: Granny Chic

Good morning!

So this marks the beginning of me bombarding you with posts full of all my new items that I picked up at the Fat Positive Clothing Swap this past weekend. I'm going to show you my favourite ones first, which I couldn't resist wearing today. It has everything I could want in an outfit, a little sass, plenty of colour and a vintage feel.

Everything apart from my little vintage necklace below was picked up at the swap. The pink top is part of a twinset from M&S, the skirt was handmade by one of the attendees, Heather, and it will probably make many more appearances on here over time. The shoes are a brand new pair of leather Camper shoes - which I always thought would be too narrow for me, but it turns out they are so soft, and fit like a dream.

This necklace belonged to my mum and I have always loved it - vintage chic!

Were you at  the swap - did you grab something nice? Tell me about it!

OOTD - An Oldie but a Goodie - Legs out and all!

Hello Lovelies!

So I am back today wearing one of my favourite Ruby Belle dresses from Evans that dates back to 2010 - Of all the lovely things I have cleared out of my closet for extra space, I could never let go of this one. I love the flamingos and the colours. I apologise for how crinkly it is - I am without iron and had been out and about all day before I got a chance to take photos.

 I decided to throw caution to the wind and get my lumpy pale legs out for all to see and it felt great!
I paired it with my black Primark Moustache flats, a black and white lacy cardigan from H&M (an old collection), my Fenwicks sunglasses and my brand new ToodalooKatie necklace.

This necklace was made by Black Heart Creatives and I purchased it from Etsy. The necklaces are awesome, high quality and very reasonably priced. Charlotte, who created the design was so friendly and quick. The other great detail about the necklace is that the chain is a great length, I so often find necklace lengths just too short but this one is spot on! Thanks so much Charlotte!

So there you have it, an oldie but a goodie - just a little reminder that sometimes shopping out of your closet can be nice too. :)
