On Saturday Night I was at the Hammersmith Apollo seeing Evanescence, it was an amazing concert as always, it was the 3rd time I have been to see them and would go again.
I ended up in my usual jeans and a top as I was feeling anxious and stressed so couldn't decide what to wear.
Whilst I was there I saw so many gorgeous girls both plus sizes and not in the most gorgeous Gothic and pinup clothing, and decided it was high time I got off my arse and started wearing some of the clothes I love and not worrying about it so much.
This led to me searching the net for fab plus size suppliers and brought me to Dangerous FX, they do a fantastic range of clothing from a size 8 to a size 30 in various ranges some don't go that high, but there is a excellent range to choose from.
Below are some of my favourite styles, I plan on ordering something very soon so I can let you know what the service and quality is like.
BLACK GOTHIC PINSTRIPE FRILLY WRAP & BUCKLE SWISHY WAISTCOAT TOP 6-28 £31.99
I think this dress is so sexy and cute all at the same time, and available up to a size 28 is fantastic.
BLACK LONG MERMAID FISHTAIL CORSET SKIRT size 8-30
£34.00
I love a good fishtail coat and anything with corseting detail is a win in my eyes!
SLINKY HIGH WAISTED NAUTICAL BRACES SKIRT BLACK or RED 8-28
£27.50
How cute is this skirt, I love the buttons the braces and the shape!
BLACK RED WHITE RETRO PIN UP SAILOR NAUTICAL DRESS 8-30
£29.99
I love seeing this dress on a gorgeous plus size model, as it gives me hope I could look good in this dress and really makes me want to buy it.
BLACK WHITE POLKADOT SWEETHEART BUNNY JIVE SWING 50'S DRESS 8-28
£47.99
What a gorgeous dress, the polka dot panels and bust line are stunning, the shape is gorgeous!

I want to be all nautical in this dress, it is so lovely.
BLACK VELVET REGENCY VICTORIAN VAMPIRE JACKET 6-28

I may be just a little bit obsessed with this jacket a well, do you see a pattern, coats and jackets are my downfall.

Again a gorgeous plus size model for the picture makes me want this dress!
RETRO RED BLACK POLKA STRAPLESS SWING SASH DRESS 10-32

I love this with the red trim, it is so pretty and would be fantastic over christmas.
Sorry for such a picture heavy post again, but there was so much I liked I couldn't choose, I haven't been asked to write this post, and have not yet tried the clothing but will update you as soon as I get something and cant try it on. xxx
