Nudes and Whites Look book

I have put together a look book so you can see how I like to style light colours. As a big girl, wearing colours such as white can be a bit daunting and intimidating however with the correct shape wear as well as accessories and styling items the look can be so flattering.

Here are 5 different out fits, some more dressy, classy and also a casual edge

PURITY | MINIMALISM

This phrase or word 'Minimalism' or 'Minimalistic' has been coming up a lot recently especially amongst the blogging community. Apparently, its the 'appreciation of space'! Whilst I always like to tag along with any trend that comes out I actually do realise how much I actually appreciate my own space. I love organisation and cleanliness, a clear mind, clear thoughts and not over the top exaggeration (in some cases lol)
This outfit and even the setting of where we took this shoot is an idea of minimalism. Apart from the purity of the whites, creams and nudes in my outfit, even the cost of this outfit being under £50 for everything is an example of what 'minimal' is. As you follow my blog and fashion style, you would realise I have a great taste in fashion, but I also got to look good on a budget! My favourite place to shop is Tesco F&F, George Asda, Ebay, Boohoo and Primark.

PLUS SIZE TRY ONS.

Hey loves!

I have been doing way too much shopping recently and its all because I just fancied a new flavour in my life! This post and video is meant for girls to know the essential fashion items that they require particularly with tips for plus size women. I may do these type of 'try on' videos often when I purchase or receive new clothing.

This item can be a scary piece for plus women to wear, and I honestly think if you get the correct shapewear and style it well its a winner! Not every woman, small or plus size has hips etc to wear it either, but as I said in the video shape wear and the correct underwear plus wearing simple stylish items such as blazers, a peplum belt or waistcoat can transform your style and make the dress or skirt look amazing

Outfit 1:  Kim Kardashian Inspired Crop Top and Skirt: Ebay
Outfit 2: Turtleneck long sleeve body con dress: Ebay

It is Summer time, lots of us would be attending pool parties, going on holiday and just general swimming, so great swim wear is what we need. The two I purchased are from Forever21, I love the style of all the swimwear in the plus section of the site. I also feel that they fit perfectly to size also and the clothing overall is excellent quality

Wether its a bikini or full swimming costume, there is a design for us all and you can find that perfect bikini or swimming costume for your summer endeavours!

Bikini Top: Forever21

Bikini Bottom: Forever 21

Swimming Costume: Forever21

I love me a bodysuit! Sometimes when you cannot find that perfect top, a body suit does it well for matching with almost any fashion item. I have off the shoulders, vest, polo neck in mainly black and white and grey to keep it neutral. This one has a little design and is more appealing, it looks quite classy and once again can be worn with a skirt or jeans. I would like to style this with a love maxi skirt as well as a nice blazer and jeans and heels.

Body suit: Boohoo

I have always had a love hate relationship with jeans. To be honest, I prefer jeggings or leggings, as a big girl its more comfortable to wear. However its a stable item and therefore if I am going to buy a pair they better be good! So what I tend to do when searching for that perfect pair of jeans is

1) Check for stretch

2) Make sure its high waist and reaches my belly bottom or above

3) Make sure its straight or skinny leg

I prefer straight or skinny leg (regular or short length as i am 5ft3) because it looks better on my very chubby legs. If it is too long it looks stumpy and that is never really attractive!

These jeans from Tesco in size 20 stretch pretty well and are comfortable
