A dress is for life. Sunday, 28 December 2014. I went into Matalan. Not really expecting to come out with anything as i find it very hit and miss but i was pleasantly surprised with my finds.

As i always like to see what gift sets are left at half price and as you will see quite a few took my eye. Next up was a So. gift. Lastly i got some mini big brand perfumes, i ...

Sunday, 27 July 2014. Dress: Simply Be. Jive Seamed Tights: c/o Pamela Mann. Bow Heels: M&Co. Head Piece: Charity Shop. I don't think I'll ever be properly lady like but this has got to be close? I mean I've got a pretty head piece on and heels! The dress is a firm favourite of mine during the cooler weather, the fabric in this heat isn't ideal I was soon boiling alive in it but I'm an overly warm person anyway! Now onto the Jive Seamed Tights I was kindly sent these by the lovely people at Pamela Mann.

Wednesday, 28 January 2015. Cupcakes And Dresses, A Plus Blogger Fashion Party! My journey to confidence has brought with it many changes. I used to live in black and boring clothes, would never wear garish prints or colours and would always play it safe with my fashion choices. For years some of my closest friends had tried their very best to encourage me to wear dresses and skirts. You wouldn't think I was ever that way if you met me today but it's true! To see my review of the dress click here. And I'...

Writing, fatshion, me: Taking Shape shop in Sheffield
http://sullen-hearts.blogspot.com/2015/08/taking-shape-shop-in-sheffield.html
Writing, fatshion, me. Friday, August 14, 2015. Taking Shape shop in Sheffield. There were 3 friendly members of staff inside, all wearing Taking Shape stuff. One chatted to us, but wasn't particularly pushy. I was impressed by the fitting rooms - they're huge. One would have been big enough for a wheelchair user, and all of them had comfy stools inside. The store is clean, bright, welcoming, and has quite a lot of space between racks. The changing rooms are huge and bright. Friday, August 14, 2015.
