What to wear to the races

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…

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.

I’ve been watching Masters of Sex on Lightbox lately – have you seen it? It’s a drama about the pioneers of the science of human sexuality.

I know it’s something you’re thinking about too – every week I get messages from my readers about where to get sexy plus size lingerie!

Trend Tip: Tartan

If you’ve been following me on twitter and facebook, you have probably guessed that I’m a bit of a fan of Outlander

Claire and Jaime 1743 Outlander

By “a bit of a fan”, I mean that I’m an Outlander fangirl through and through! I’ve read all of the books in Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander series multiple times, and have seen all of the episodes of the new Outlander series. It’s available exclusively on Lightbox in New Zealand, and I’m eagerly awaiting episode 7!

If you want to get in to the Outlander mood and rock some tartan, then here are some great new plaid pieces for you… View Post

Suits cast season 4

Over the weekend I started watching Suits on Lightbox, have you seen it? It got me thinking about how easy guys have it when dressing for the office – a good suit is fairly easy to find and will instantly make you look smart! Plus size women don’t have it so easy – if I wanted a suit I would need to have a bespoke one made to account for my body shape and my bust to waist ratio (no one looks smart in an ill fitting suit!). Fortunately I’ve done a bit of scouting on your behalf and come up with some great plus size office wear pieces that will have you looking smart and on top of your game… View Post
