Clothing at Tesco Review

Being part of the Plus Size Panel  allowed me to give you a sneak peek at the upcoming AW12 True range and also got to give you guys a little giveaway, on top of that Tesco kindly offered us a gift card to use for ourselves to give you a review of some of the items.

I chose to get a couple of tops and a jacket as these are items my wardrobe is craving, and I have not been disappointed quality wise at all, they have arrived and are all lovely.

From the True range I chose the F&F True Kimono Jacket and the F&F True floral Printed Top

This top is loose and flowing, and so pretty, I like the weight of it, you could easily add a top under for the winter to make it a bit more weather appropriate!

I love that the jacket follows the line of the top perfectly, some days I do not want to wear a belt to accentuate my curves, sometimes I just want to be comfortable and relaxed!

I teamed them with my skinny (not so) Black jeans and some heels (will be reviewing these tomorrow)
This is perfect for me to wear shopping or to the cinema on date night.

Now for my next item I went for something from the main range as the point in the plus size panel is to get feedback to the plus buyers to help them move the brand on, and something I would say is they need to be braver, just because I am plus sized does not mean I always want loose flowing clothing sometimes I want structure and shape, so I decided to give the Lace Print Peplum Top a go to show i like fitted tops.

My face is a bit worrying in this one :) I love it with the jacket, and can imagine getting lots of wear out of this, I can see it working in an office environment as easily as a night on the town!

I think I want to try it with a belt just above the peplum to pull it in a little and show off the peplum more, but i still love it just like this!

A little sneak peek of the shoes :) 

I have loved working with Tescos and hope to do so again in the future as I would love to see the brand going forward and the plus side going from strength to strength, Just please do not fall into the trap of always playing it safe! 

We want diversity in our clothing there is always a need for the basics but sometimes we just wanna have fun!!!

  5. I'm not usually a fan of 'waterfall' but I love this on you!

    I do concur though, I'd compare the True range to Evans, without the C&R collection - more adventurous items needed!

    Their 'straight' range is amazing at the moment though x
