Maxi Dresses

Monsoon £160
                                                                                                                                          
Maxi dresses are one of the hottest sessions trends, but I am always worried because I under 5"2 that they will just make me look wider and shorter than I really am. I think that maybe for shorter women the answer is to get out your sewing machines. Saying this there are some lovely maxi dresses on the high street. Monsoon are doing some beautiful evening maxi dresses. Each of the one above, are £160, which if you are looking for something that will last and survive from season to season them go for these, they are classic but with the right amount of colour and volume to suit many different women.
If you are looking for something more simple and something more for one season than for many is the New Look Maxi Dress opposite for only £15. This is the perfect dress if you wanted a simple dress that you can accessories then this is the dress for you. And for £15 it is a complete bargain. 
If you are looking for something running along the middle price ranges then got to River island and pick up the one in the centre top. For £35 it is perfect for someone who wants something  slightly more up market but that won't break the bank.

Blazers Platform Shoes and Chunky Necklaces!!!!!



I am a great fan of chunky jewellery, I believe that you can never go wrong with a big necklace, blazer and some cute shoes! And it seems I'm in luck, for this seasons trends are continuing with large necklaces and blazers. Therefore, whilst i was trawling through Topshop online and New Look, I found a necklace and blazer with would be perfect together. To keep in trend wear with a vest top and Jeggings, and you will have a summer look down. Now all you need is the sunglasses to go with it.

Necklace: £25 Topshop
Wedges: £20 New Look
Blazer: Was £22 Now £15

Try it on!

Ok so here is my first proper blog. Something that truly annoys me is when women go into shops and think that they will immediately fit into to the size they are wearing.
One of the biggest fashion faux pass anyone can make is wearing something that is too small for them or oppositely something that is swamps them and I'm not talking about the big baggy jogging bottoms, you wear after a long day of hard work and bad weather. Unfortunately wherever I look women are wearing dressing in clothes that do Not fit.
The worst thing you could possibly do is pick up the same size as you are wearing, from a different store just because you think it might fit. The best thing to do is take the same item in your size, and the size above into the changing rooms. Trying things on is essential to making sure that you have something that is ideal to fit you.
The truth is that the size is just a number, we all love to say things like I'm a size 10 or size 8 but if you haven't got the correct size for your body then what would be the point in buying it?
So whether you are a size 6 or size 26, don't worry about the number on the shirt, simply try it on and make sure that it fits you.

Hope this was helpful,
