Racing season is upon us, and if you’re planning on attending any of the events over the next six months then you will need to be well dressed! A certain standard of dress is expected (you can read the dress code for Ellerslie here), and if you’ve never been before then it can be quite daunting trying to figure out what to wear to the races – but never fear, I’ve found some great frocks that will have you race ready in no time…
Swimsuit Special 2014: Bikini
A few months ago I was contacted by a reporter to talk about the popularity of the fatkini (that’s bikinis for plus size babes, y’all). I declined for a number of reasons, one of them being that the media outlet interviewing me has a history of body shaming and I would much rather use my body positive blog to talk about why I love wearing a bikini! I love swimsuits of all different cuts, but two piece bathing suits have to be my favourite – you can mix and match patterns and choose different sizes depending on your body shape. Bikinis always make me feel brave and powerful, because for so many years I shied away from them. But no more! There are loads of different shapes, styles and prints to help you look and feel fabulous.
Trend Tip: Midi Skirts
Hemlines have dropped this spring, with midi lengths becoming increasingly popular. Sitting just below the knee, the midi skirt (or dress) is a little more demure, a lot more grown up, and gives a nod to the styles of the 1970’s. You’ve seen me wearing midi skirts a lot on this blog, like this black one, this pink one and this printed skirt – and now here are some of my favourite midi skirts for spring.
Great Summer Shoes For Big Feet
Artika Flat Sandals, $149 from Willow Shoes
For most women, shoe shopping is an exciting expedition, you can never have enough pairs of shoes. All my life people have tried to make me feel comfortable with my big feet but alas, the funny jokes have not made it any easier to find fashionable footwear. I am forever left asking, “why must big feet have to equal big problems?” Everybody needs shoes. View Post
Nabbing a bargain with NZSALE
Brought to you by NZSALE
My extremely full wardrobe (and my boyfriend) will attest to the fact that I love shopping. It can get pretty expensive though, so that’s why I keep my eyes open for bargains where I can and set myself a limit on how much I spend on clothes each month. One of the places I’ve found some amazing bargains is NZSALE. which has up to 80% on some of my favourite brands, with new sales starting all the time – including regular plus size sales!
I wanted to see how much I could get for my money, so armed with $100 I set out on a shopping expedition. View Post
