Have you seen Mad Men yet? I’ve been watching it on Lightbox over the last few weeks and I can’t believe I haven’t seen it sooner. What I love most is the women of Mad Men – they’re strong and sassy (especially Joan Holloway, who is played by Christina Hendricks), and such snappy dressers!
If you want to be able to rock their fabulous 1960’s style then never fear – I’ve found some fantastic plus size dresses that are just divine! View Post
The Very Vintage Day Out 2014 was a very different experience for me this year, I think because I went with friends instead of going by myself. Everything is always infinitely more fun with friends! I’ve got loads of pictures for you this year, and very few words (for a change), so let’s kick off…

If you follow me on instagram, you’ll know that I went to The Very Vintage Day Out over the weekend. I was umming and ahhing about what I was going to wear for weeks beforehand, and then on Friday night a parcel arrived from Hope & Harvest.

I think an important part of the body positive journey is wearing clothes that make you feel fabulous – at least, it has been a very important part of my journey. I find it nearly impossible to feel bad about myself and my body if I am wearing a kick ass outfit, one that I love, that I feel good in and that I believe looks good on me.

My favourite style at the moment is retro inspired – tops and full swings skirts or dresses that nip in at the waist, all worn with layers of petticoats underneath. It is a style that I feel fantastic in, and thankfully there are a number of companies out there at the moment that are providing retro reproductions (designs inspired by true vintage but in modern fabrics and colours) in plus sizes.
