    When the sales arrive it is like all my Christmas’ come at once. I’m like a kid in a candy shop. You can almost guarantee that I will have Mango, Zara, New Look and the rest all lined up in tabs on my internet browser. I just can’t help myself at all. Not one little ounce. But, there was something that I was desperately needing in my life and that was (ahem another ahem) black shopper bag. One that could easily be swung over the shoulder, when funnily enough I would be shopping. I found the perfect shopper bag!

    I’m a petite girl in height, but what I lack in centimetres there I certainly make up for them round the hips. I find it tremendously difficult to dress for my shape, big bust, tiny waist and wide hips, plus my bodies decision to be vertically challenged – where is my middle ground? Slowly, but surely I’m starting to realise what looks good on my body. I need to try and steer clear of overly baggy outfits that don’t drown me. I know stripes work well with my physique too but there’s only so much Breton that can be in one girls life! With it now being summer it’s also time to inject some colour in to my life too…

    Okay, so let me start off by saying that I obviously had far too much fun to properly ”pose” for these photos. Ya’ see, I don’t think it has to be so serious all the time. It’s time to smile and rejoice at the good things in life. Laugh so hard that it hurts. Run away with the moments that make you care-free. That’s kinda what this dress wants you to do. It’s playful and so easy to enjoy. Simple but with delicate crochet giving it a slightly different texture. Let’s get this straight, this dress might not be the chicest outfit in my wardrobe, but hey, who says I’m trying to be classy. It might not hug my ever growing curves (goddam you hips and thighs!) but instead this is a dress that can be enjoyed whilst dancing at a festival, on the beach with sand in your toes, to be rolled around in the grass in. Endless possibilities that make the most charming memories. That’s the type of dress that I like & want to wear.

    On Saturday we decided to head in to Leeds for brunch. It’s not something we regularly do but spontaneity ruled that morning and we also needed to return my Zara order too. I wanted to wear my new leather jacket & I have to say I am head over heels in love with it. It’s a hand me down and boy, do I want to wear it all day, everyday. It’s beautiful and so unbelievably soft too. Of course, I had to pair it with my Breton striped top. Did someone say, Parisian Chic?

    I’m not sure if you’ve noticed but recently I have done away with my tripod. No longer am I taking photos by myself before I head out, all alone, trying to ”werk it” with no encouragement. It sounds stupid but it’s damn hard to try and work it when you have absolutely no clue what it looks like on the other side. A couple of weeks ago I took the plunge. I asked my sister to do my blog photos for me. Little did I know just how much easier it would begin to be, with someone being able to tell you what you look like, what’s working and what’s not is not only making my photos a damn sight better, it’s actually bolstering my confidence in bucket loads.
