OOTD Saturday

Today was like a summers day

What to wear... what to wear...

Sundress of course 
 A Sundress i got from the Leeds Fat swap.

I decided as  all the pictures i used for the OOTD posts were all mirror shots to use the self timer feature.

 I didn't think i'd pressed it for the time in this one haha i hate it but love it at the same time

The dress is an ASOS Size 14, but it fits well, i think a bigger size would be better but i'm still happy to wear it as it is

Shoes Miss Selfridge Size 6 £12 or £16
 I wore Navy Sandals when i went out today but the rubbed a bit so i changed to ballet flats when i got home
The old Self arm shot. i wanted to show you the buttons on the top

Please ignore the greasy hair it really needs a wash

OOTD Thursday

I'm still keeping up wearing a skirt a week. While although it is still on the chilly side i felt like being  summery. 
Skirt Size 20 Primark £5 (sale reduced from £10)
Top Size 16 Tesco £1 (Sale reduced from £5)
Cardie Size 20 Leeds Fat Swap, Label is washed out but does remind me of Littlewoods mid 80s

OOTD Wednesday

On Wednesday I decided I’d best wear a skirt as part of my Challenging Self idea.
I'm trying to take better photo's which is hard when i have to do mirror shots or use the self timer on my camera.
I went down by the canal in Manchester to take my photo's

Test photo, ok so the Lock arm thingy is in the way but the mechanics thing is a good hight for the camera
I decided to wear the skirt I have acquired from the Leeds Clothes swap.
This skirt is so pretty, I have a feeling it’s a homemade one as  can’t see a label and there is a small amount of fraying round the zip.


However it is so cute, it has button detailing at the front, but they are false button holes so no unexpected flashing can occur!

The fabric feels really nice and it has a lovely bow print to it
See its cute!

Leeds Plus sized Clothes swap Part 2


I wanted to do another quick post about the things I got from the swap but I haven't have time to take the photos. 

I have worn one of the items I got and I’m hoping to post that in a couple of days along with a clothes round up. 

I've seen 3 other posts about the clothes swap and they are all from people I spoke to at the swap, it was lovely to see their posts. 

The first post I saw from Rachel I know she will be doing more posts about the things she got, I saw her try on the most gorgeous red coat, and I can't wait to see her wearing it. 

I have also seen Laura's post and she has some fab pictures from the swap on her post. 

Finally a blog I was looking at on my phone thinking oh wow someone took almost the same pictures I did (I only took 4) when I’ve looked again tonight they are my pictures that were stolen! haha I really don't mind but I thought I was cracking up looking at the pictures first time round. That post was by the lovely Lisa

There is also my post from the other day with my photos

Now I know there were more bloggers than us 4 at the swap, if you went let me know what you got, I’d love to have a read and a nosy at what you got.

Leeds Plus Sized Clothes Swap #3

This was the first swap i'd been to, and i can't wait for the next one.

Althoughi i'd love to go to a blogger meet closer to home (Manchester Area)
I was in Skipton for the weekend so it was only 45 mins on the train and i went with my mum and we had a lovely day out. 
 I felt quite bad because i hadn't taken anything as the trip to Leeds was a bit last min.
 I met some lovely people, sadly i'm really bad at putting names to faces so i'm still none the wiser who half the people ar! Ops 
 I did take a couple of items, which i feel bad about and i promise to take lots of lovely things to the next one.
I also got to have a drink and cupcake while i was there.

I will do a post on the things i acquired. A big thank you to those people who organised it and who took things, from what i've read on Twitter it was a success and i hope everyone went away with nice things!

Did you go? what did you get?
