Weekend Wear | QueenBeady

Coat Matalan | Jumper New Look at ASOS | Jeans Topshop | White Trainers ASOS | Watch Olivia Burton

It was my husband’s final race of the season and we spent the weekend at Cadwell Park, Lincolnshire. It was a hoot as always, plus the spectators café was the best one we’ve been to so far. James assures me he loved the track and it was easy to see why with all the twists and turns, along with hills and dips galore. As a (long-suffering) race widow I need to make sure that at all times I’m wearing the cosiest attired – especially for the Winter meets. The ever old-faithful ASOS helped out because I’ve been dying for some bright white sneakers for some time. I love sharing these super casual, weekend wear looks on my blog too because they are so easy to achieve!

Hand Me Downs | QueenBeady

Jumper Topshop | Roll Neck New Look | Jeans Topshop | Belt New Look | Shoes Dorothy Perkins

This whole outfit is made up of hand me downs. I bet you thought you’d never read that on a fashion/style blog did you? Normally it’s big sisters who have to hide their clothes in fear of their younger siblings stealing them from you, but in our family it’s the other way round. Lucky for me though, my sister get’s bored of her clothes pretty quickly and every time we visit one another she has another big bag full ready for me to rummage through. It’s a win win situation for me!

When I Grow Up #WEChildhoodDream | QueenBeady

Ever since I was a little girl I knew I wanted to write. Whether that be penning my own novel or casting my editorial eyes over the latest fashion magazine? It’s something that I’ve always been passionate about, you’d catch me making my own magazine’s as a little girl, using my set of Crayola’s and my latest notepad to create my imaginary editorial. I’d play Agony Aunt for the letters page, create my own short story, I’d even create my own mood board of things you should be buying. This was at a ripe age of six or seven. There wasn’t a week that went by that I didn’t pick up my issue of Girl Talk for inspiration (you know the one I mean!) When Workwear Express got in touch with me and asked ”what did I want to be when I grow up?” as part of the #WEChildhoodDream campaign, I knew the answer was easy because my love for the topic has always been apparent through my life.

#ThisGirlCan with Boohoo | QueenBeady

Back in June I was so excited to be invited to join the campaign #ThisGirlCan with Boohoo. I couldn’t wait to visit their Manchester studios to view their Boohoo Fit Range, where we would be pampered and treated to our own photo shoot for this great cause. Having joined the gym back in March I’m always on the look out for new work-out wear and it’s difficult to find good, supportive pieces that are also reasonable too. The gym isn’t necessarily about being a fashion show, however, looking good whilst you sweat gives me a major feel good factor! The #ThisGirlCan campaign wants to tackle the stigma of working out, making sure all girls, of all ages, sizes and capabilities are getting out and doing some sort of sport activity each week & feel good when they do it!

The Denim Dress | QueenBeady

Dress New Look |Belt River Island | Shoes Monsoon

I have been looking high and low for THE denim dress that doesn’t make me look like a sack of potatoes, I’d bought one from Mango and I looked horrendous. I swiftly returned it and decided that a denim dress was not the one for me. After recently winning some vouchers at the Martin House Bloggers event I found myself trawling the New Look website (one of my favourite pastimes!) and came across this little find. It was clear that I had to have it and I was smitten as soon as I put it on. I’m pretty sure it’s spent more time out of my wardrobe since I got it than in it. I mean it’s perfect for these up-and-down weather days we have at this time of year.
