This made me smile!!

So I was on Facebook the other day and the fabulous Plus Model Magazine added a link to a fabulous photo I just had to share

Which one do you want to be?





Now I just love this and checked out Sean's site at www.seanshuemate.com with its home of Big Girl boot camp - loving it!!! Personally I don't want to look bugger all like Barbie on the right and would be quite happy with the Left Barbie - she has better legs than me!! But I love the sentiment and his website and sentiment made me smile. 'Size three not for me indeed' - whatever a size three is lol!!

I just wanted to share ladies xxxxx

Homage to Summer & Yours Clothing

So I finally have to relent and accept summer is gone and its time to pack away the Havaianas and summer dresses and get out the woollies and boots! I hard task for me - I am not a fan of Autumn or Winter fashion and love summer style but somethings I cant fight and British weather is one of them!

Anyway - since I have been lucky enough to have such a fantastic summer and entertained myself with five trips over to see my Bestie and the sunny Costa Del Sol this summer I thought I should pay special homage to Your Clothing. Without whom I would have had nothing to wear on the streets of Glamorous Puerto Banus!

So here is just a pick of my hot favs this summer from the lovely collection at Yours and fingers crossed they sort me out next summer too! I make no apologies for the fact these are mostly all long dresses - I rarely wear them at home and frankly I just don't have the legs for short dresses lol!!

For my initial visits of the summer I had not one but two gorgeous numbers from Yours Clothing

They aren't available anymore - but ones very similar to them are! Firstly was the the gorgeous Gypsy dress which I wore over leggings - its the legs thing again!!  Clearly it didn't need leggings but you never know when there might be a gust of wind and its quite light! Last thing I need is my Bridget Jones Knickers on display for all to see :-) !



 I jazzed it up with the flower but it was lovely without too! As I said they don't have it anymore but they have a very similar cut and design in the

Mesh Dress

Black+Mesh+Dress+41000

Its sparkly and great for the festive period and not too dissimilar to the version I had. Which I loved! Certainly the length and cut is the same and the magical band in the middle which is snug just wear it needs to be.


Then there was the floral Maxi - again posing with my Bestie - hmmmmm hoping she doesn't mind being a feature on here lol!!





Yours have squillions of these - not a lot in at the moment but they had lots like it for Summer.
 I saw lots of girls with this dress in so many different shades. Most had bought them from New Look - just goes to show that those suppliers do stock plus size - New Look just chooses not to buy them in!

My other staple this summer was the gorgeous Butterfly dress

Black+Butterfly+Print+Georgette+Maxi+Dress+38794Butterfly Dress


This is still in stock and has a few prints in the same design. Again can't really fault it in anyway - love the way it hangs, love the shape, love the print.


However the cream of the crop this summer was the Leopard Print Maxi - I LOVE IT!!! It has also proven to be a bit of a boy magnet - not that I am complaining but when I wear the Leopard print I get noticed! Its fabulous - and still in stock!!

Here it is
Animal+Print+Chiffon+Maxi+Dress++40426Leopard Print Dress


And me wearing it -






So Ladies - time to kiss farewell to Summer as tough as it may be and Kudos to Yours Clothing for keeping me feeling glamorous next to the stunners that were frequenting Marbella this summer - roll on next Summer and more fantastic fashion from Yours!
