Baby's First Birthday!

 

The last update I did on Isabelle, or as she is now know, Belle, was way back when she was three months old.

She has changed so much, obviously!

 

She has been walking since shortly before she turned ten moths, says a few words here and there and has the attitude of Grammy award winning Diva! She's bloody fantastic.

 

Her first birthday was a lovely day, a quiet one spent with family and a few close friends, just as we wanted it to be.

She was of course, absolutely spoilt and our living room resembles a pink toy shop! I LOVE it!!

 

 

We had a lovely, small tea party for her, she was completely overwhelmed and a bit confused I feel, but she loved playing with her little friends and paying hide and seek!

 

 

 

As is the norm with me I went totally over the top with décor, I went with baby pink and gold as our theme, Belle had no idea and with the exception of the 60 balloons around the house noticed nothing! I wasn't bothered though, i think at one most things a parent does like this are for them, for the memories, of which I now have copious amounts.

 

 

I loved her outfit, and spent weeks putting it together, i am of course supposed to think so but in my opinion, she looked like a perfect tutu wearing princess!

 

 

I have loved completely immersing myself in her over the past 12 months, but as she gets older and enjoys more independent play.....and less time on my boobies i'm excited to get back to my blog, I hope to grow my little ramblings into a fun and exciting community.

So, please check back for more posts in the very near future!

 

Much Love

Spring Style Saturday!

Hey Hey!

 

Welcome back, and apologies for the delay in getting this post up!

My mum has been poorly this week so I have been on diligent daughter duty, along with being a mummy time has just run away from me I'm afraid.

 

Today I'm sharing another of my recent spring purchases.

I have always worn a lot of black, black everything! I believed I looked better in it, and because of my size, that it was best to stick to. My confidence has grown over the past few months and I have started adding colour to my wardrobe......this is no exception!

 

I am in love with this gorgeous maxi dress!

It is by Alice & You, I purchased it via ASOS Curve.

The dress is a light, beautiful chiffon and has a fitted cotton slip dress underneath which is black. It has elasticated sleeves and I adore the two knee high splits at the front.

 

Spring hasn't quite arrived but I know once it has this will be a dress I wear time and time again!

 

If you want to pick up your own you can click here, visit the ASOS Curve website and treat yourself, go on, you know you want to!

 

 

Make sure you visit All About Jemma tomorrow for a special Mothers Day post!

 

Until then enjoy what is left of your weekend!

 

Much Love,

Fashion Friday - ASOS Curve, New Look and Michael Kors. OOTD

Hey Hey!

 

Welcome back, and to Fashion Friday.

 

My entire outfit today, except my accessories is from the amazing Curve range at ASOS.

 

I pretty much buy all of my clothes from these guys, I'm a premier member also!

 

The clothes are great, I'm a BIG girl, and I find the clothes are designed with true plus size women in mind. Length to width ratio's are always on point, they don't simply take something made for an average sized person and stretch it several inches, they take into consideration the extra length etc needed to make something wearable for someone of my size.

The dress can be found here , it's comfy and fits well. I love the neckline and the bell sleeve detail.

You could wear heals and tights, but I decided to make it more of a daytime dress and wore leggings and my lovely new boots!

These are by New Look, but purchased via ASOS. New Look have a great selection of wide fit shoes and boots. I love the buckle detail on these ones.

Accessories were all really simple, and not from ASOS or New Look I'm afraid. My Michael Kors Rose Gold watch and bracelet, I got both late last year for my 30th birthday, I really love them worn together. You can still buy the bracelet here and my watch, I can't seem to find a direct link to it, so wonder if it's maybe not available any more.....you can but watches like it by clicking here.

 

So that's my OOTD for today!

This post has taken a lot of courage on my part, I don't like full length pictures being taken of me at all let alone posted on the ol' internet!

 

I'll be back next week with another Fashion Friday, I recently received a huge order from ASOS so have lots of new outfits to share! I hope you'll come back!

 

Don't forget to click the links below and follow along with me!

 

Have a great weekend!
