Fatshion Faceoff - Trench coat

Well I have to apologise for my post being a little late, this week has been a little crazy!

MY only trench type coat is one I save for spring as it is very light weight, and is also a lovely minty green colour that is great for the springtime.

I couldn't find the belt for it which means it is likely stored in one of the many random boxes of stuff in our spare room and is likely lost until I can get some extra storage space and unpack the items that aren't in use.

But I do love my coat, I bought it from Next quite a few years ago and it has held up well.

Here are a few pictures of me wearing it how I normally do.

My boobs are still a bit big for it at the moment, so cant do it up yet but it is a gorgeous flared skirt style trench.
I am wearing it with my High waisted Simply Be leggings which are awesome and my favourite ax paris Jumper that I got form Simply Be too

I like a the little ruffle details on the back


and Front. 

Are you a trench coat kind of girl? or guy?

Head over to see the other fabulous ladies, they all look stunning!

OOTD - SimplyBe and Ax Paris Curve

Wanted to give you ladies a little look at my outfit from today, I ordered this dress from Simply be from the Ax Paris range a while ago and I am in love the colours are so perfect and it is so soft to touch that I can't help loving wearing it.

Ax paris really do produce some fabulous items, I also bought a gorgeous soft touch jumper from the range that I will show you as soon as I get a chance.

The dress has been worn and washed and has done really well I was a little worried about the fabric fraying as it is quite delicate but so far so good.

Boots - Rocket Dog
Cardigan - Matalan

My face is swollen today, and I am not sure why, hoping its allergy and not teeth as cant cope with more dentist!

So So Pretty!

I also wanted to show you the fabulous coat I received from simply be a while ago, I haven't been able to show you straight away as all the snow was a little unsuitable for the leather look sleeves.
the body of the coat is lovely and warm but not stiflingly so, but I do find I need a cardigan on under to make the sleeves warm enough on a colder day.



I plan to solve this problem by slipping a light weight fleece under as soon as I find one thin enough as I don't want to add bulk under it.


The colour is gorgeous and rich and I love the collarless style, but I would love to see something similar  but in a swing skirt style coat as it is a very up and down coat, but it is so lovely I forgive it and wear it to death!

Hope you are all having a fabulous weekend.

Fatshion Faceoff - Brightly coloured Purse

So Fatshion Faceoff is here again, and this week meant I got to use my pretty handbag, the pick was a Bright coloured Purse it could be anything, bag, clutch tote ect. 

I used to have the most amazing Cobalt Blue bag which came from Mango and I used it so so much it literally fell apart, but I have been quite boring since then and have chosen fairly basic black bags, but i did find the lovely bag in the below photos in the next sale about 4 months ago for £5 it is a gorgeous mustard yellow colour and worked really well with my Fabulous Ax Paris Fishy dress!

It has been rainy and muggy all day so I popped a cardi over the top today to pop out to the shops and have some lunch with my dad and Marc.

So here you have my version of a brightly coloured Purse.

The bag is very cute, I love the strap, I can have it long like this wrap it round my hand or, pull the two length so they are even like in the 3rd picture. 



Now this next picture is of my Ron who kept staring at me then scratched my bum for a cuddle so picked him up, but he has become a lump! what do you think can he be a handbag pooch like the stars? 


Purse - New Look £5 (past season)
High Waisted Leggings - SimplyBe £12

These two brightly coloured clutches have been calling to me recently on the New Look website, its one shop I like for fun bags.

At that price I think I will pick this up at some point.
I was stroking this in the shop today, it is gorgeous in the Lilac colour too. 

Go take a look at the other beautiful ladies and there fabulous efforts.





So that is my outfit this week, what do you think?
How colourful do you like to be with your bags?

P.S. please excuse the mattress in the background we have family staying at the moment 
:-D
