Yours Clothing purple 99p dress OOTD

Hiya loves!

A few weeks ago Yours Clothing were selling dresses at just 99p each, so I snapped up a few. Today myself and a bunch of other lovely ladies are posting our take on the Yours purple dress. I've already styled it up glamorously here, so I thought I'd rock it up a bit this time.


The dress is 96% polyester and 4% elastane and is a heavyweight fabric which feels expensive and luxurious. Because of the nature of the fabric it tends to cling a bit, so I'm glad I sized up. The crossover bust and ruched detail underneath are lovely touches, and the pleat detail is lovely and current. Hubby asked me today if this was a new dress, and I said 'Yes, and it cost me 99p!' He said there's no way anyone would believe that if I told them. The dress was originally £40 so what a bargain!

There are also going to be further posts this week from some of us. I was lucky enough to snag 3 99p dresses so I'll be joining in on Weds and Fri as well. Not all the ladies will be taking part every day - it depends which dress(es) they got.

Tuesday 4th March - Black and White Chiffon Dress
Wednesday 5th March - Black Bodycon Dress
Thursday 6th March - Red and Black Dress
Friday 7th March - Polka Dot Dress

Did you manage to snag the purple 99p dress from Yours?

Thanks for reading.

Day 24 Fatshion Feb - Biker boots babe

Hiya!

I love a bit of alliteration, don't you? I'm wearing my new biker boots in this post. You might know by now that I try not to pay full price for anything. I'm a bargain queen. I got these wide fit boots from New Look when they were down from £34.99 to £19.99. I thought I'd do a dark biker type look.


Here's a close up.


Here's a photo of my make up.

This is day 12 of 14 black dress days as part of Fatshion Feb so 2 more black dress days to go and only 2 other outfits until the month is over. I've enjoyed it but will be glad to get back to my normal schedule of about 3-4 outfit posts a week so I can get some more varied subjects covered!

I hope you had a great weekend and your week gets off to a great start.

Thanks for reading.

Fatshion Feb day 22 Blue paisley dress

Hello cute faces!

Say hello to my bad hair day!


I had my hair in a pony tail and took it down and it did that weird sticky-out thing.

Because you're worth it *SWISH*

I'm wearing the Lime Crime lip velvet in Suedeberry here.

I don't know why it is, but when I'm pre menstrual I ALWAYS hack at my fringe, and my hand-eye coordination is even more whack than usual at that most delicate time of the month. It always results in a horribly crooked fringe, but it doesn't put me off. Every month. I spent about half an hour earlier gently snipping away to restore order. Mind you, I come from a long line of fringe-butcherers. My mum cut right through my eyebrow once (seriously, she did!) when she was chopping my forehead curtains, and I'm sure her mum probably fucked her hair up too. Really, I'm doing the world a favour by not reproducing. Remind me to share some photos of my childhood hair don'ts. (They are definitely hair DON'TS instead of hair do's.)

I've hacked away at my fringe again now. This is the before.

I'm wearing a New Look dress Mookie gave me a few weeks ago. It's lovely and lightweight. I don't wear blue nearly often enough. Sorry all this stuff is as old as balls.

Shoes, Dr Marten - check eBay or Amazon as they're always cheaper there.

I love my DM dolly shoes but don't wear them much on the blog any more. I've got a lot more shoes now than when I started blogging and I tend to wear the pretty ones more often, but when I know I'm going to do a fair bit of walking I wear my trusty DMs. They protect my dodgy achilles heel. For a rock chick I've never had a pair of DM boots! It's a sacrilege.

Happy Saturday!

I hope you have a good weekend whatever you do. I'm having my eyes tested this weekend. New glasses, whoo!

Thanks for reading.
