Girly Millenial Pink OOTD

I seem to be on a bit of a roll lately with online competitions, and recently I was lucky enough to win one of Yours Clothing's #winitwednesday competitions on twitter. It was a on a day that's always hard, on my dear friend Jess's birthday who sadly was taken from us when we were 17. We shared a mutual love of butterflies and it seemed like a gift from the universe to make me smile when I suddenly won a dress covered in butterflies!

Dress - Lady Voluptuous for Yours Clothing

Jacket - Matalan (old)

Shoes - Converses

Sunglasses - Sorority Princess by Quay Australia

This dress is quite possibly the girliest thing I've ever owned. In fact, this whole outfit might be the girliest thing I've ever worn! I ended up channelling Amanda Apparel for this look completely by accident. I wore this outfit to a hen do I went on, and when I realised I only had 20 minutes to get ready I gave my youngest step son a bunch of random choices to pick me an outfit real quick. He was feeling the all pink vibes, so all pink it was!

The dress is typical Lady Voluptuous, beautifully made, with a lovely print, and well fitted. Lady V offer dual sizes, and I find them very true to size. This is probably a little more low cut than I would usually wear because I don't have the sort of bust that gives cleavage, but I love it either way and think it would also look amazing on a busty babe too!

The print is a delight, flowers and butterflies in different shades of pinks and hints of blue. The sleeves sit at about elbow length with a fold up that has a really unusual shape, it actually peaks into a 'V' shape in the middle of the sleeves. I really like this detail, it's such a small thing but it's lovely. The top of the dress is a wrap over style, for me personally I might have to pop a stitch in the bust area because it does gape a bit because I don't have much to fill it out, but I don't think anyone with more of a chest would need to do that.

The bottom of the dress is probably my favourite part, the two pleated sections give it a great shape without being too full. You could probably pop a petticoat underneath it if you did want to add more fullness though!

It felt really odd to go out not wearing all pink, but I think the Converses and the pleather jacket made it feel 'Kitty' enough that I wasn't uncomfortable. I might just have to let my step son style me again seen as he did such a great job with this look!

Much love,

Our First Wedding Anniversary : I Don't Want Children And That's OK

Father's Day!

Sunday was Father's Day in England, so it meant a family BBQ to celebrate the day with my love and his children, and my Dad too :)

This is what I got for my Dad. Custom Uranium and Plutonium element cufflinks from Sugar & Vice. He works in the power industry so he enjoyed these!

My outfit :) Stu took the first one but I think the hemline is more visible in the second one. Isn't it cute?

The dress is from New Look, my Mum found it in store on sale and treated me to it :) thanks Mum! I wouldn't normally go for a pink dress, but I liked the lace detailing and the hem is so cute.

I usually live in plain black leggings but I'm trying to break that habit, so cute new leggings! These are from ASOS. The material they are made of is so soft, I love them and will be keeping an eye out for more. My sandals are from Evans last year, it is so hard to get a size 10! The are wedge heels which I find much more comfortable.

To finish the outfit off I wore one of my favourite necklaces, the Sugar & Vice Swimming Mermaid necklace £20, and my black Gorilla Glass super spirals.

Much love
