Gok for Simply Be

Since the first range of lingerie by Gok for Simply be was released,  I have been in love, the pieces are always sexy, fun and more exciting than the usual shape wear on the market.

When Simply be asked me if I would like to try out a couple of pieces to tie in with the National Underwear Day campaign which is today 5th August, I was so excited.

This years AW13 range is no exception, I fell madly in love with the press images and couldn't wait to get my hands on it!

I decided to try out the purple colour way in the balconette bra and high waist control briefs and I was not disappointed, they feel lovely, I would say the material is almost like swimming costume material but thinner and super soft.

The colour is rich and very sexy, I love everything about it, now the Gok range does not officially cater to my size as I am a 38H but decided to give it a try in a 40G to try to get it as near as possible and it worked out not too badly, the cup is a little small so the central gore does not quite sit against my chest, but it supports me pretty well and the band sits nicely.

 Pretty detail

 Comes with changeable straps

The straps hadn't been tightened fully in this picture but it still supported me well and gives a fairly rounded shape.

Remember to get you bra size checked regularly ladies happy boobies are always good!

Head over to Simply Be and check out the amazing Gok range 

Fatshion Faceoff - Simply Be Dress

The wonderful Hanna recently arranged with the fabulous Simply Be for us all to be sent the same dress and challenged us to wear it our way, this is so exciting as although we all wear a similar item each week, we never get to try the same thing.

This is a fantastic way for our readers to see how the dress looks on a variety of body shapes, heights, and different skin tones and hair colours too.

The dress we received was this one

Cut out Back Skater Dress £55

Now I utterly love how this has been styled in the photos, but at christmas I have lots of family gatherings to attend that involve driving back and forth and this dress is perfect it is comfortable beautiful, and most of all I love the little details like the cutout back.

I have therefore styled it with comfort and practicality in mind for the crazy holiday season ahead!

The back detail.

So pretty, I adore the colours.

I love the cap sleeves and and in a 20 the dress is spot on over my boobs, but could have easily sized down for the waist and hips, but my boobs take priority!

The material is beautiful and thick and I love that it has the little sleeves I didn't feel the need to add a cardigan to this at all and would happily wear it as it is.

I added my belt just to dress it up a little but even though it is a tiny bit big through the waist I can were it without the belt and it still looks lovely, and just a simple pair of flats for all the rushing about.

Planning has already commenced to dress it up for a night out too, so watch this space for an OOTD post in the near future!

I just want to take the time to say thank you to Simply Be for sending us all the dress, and also for making some of the most fabulous plus clothing on the market.

Now head on over to the other ladies and see how they have worn theirs!

Perfect Party Dress - Simply Be

Simply Be as you know are one of my favourite brands, and when the lovely Jessica contacted me recently to ask me if I would choose a dress to be my Perfect Party Dress and review it for them.

There are so many stunning dresses on the site at the moment, and it was a tough choice but when I saw this dress, I knew it would be perfect!

I feel like a scarlet Marilyn Monroe in the this dress, it is so classic yet sexy and the pleating works beautifully!

I decided I wanted to add a little sparkle so teamed it with my sequin Matalan cardigan.

My red shoes are a little darker than the dress and I cant decide if they work or not, but if they don't, its a good excuse for some new shoes.

I fell confident, comfortable and sexy in this dress, my husband loves it, he cant wait to take me out to christmas events in it.

I ordered the dress in my usual size 20 and it is spot on, I sometimes need to size up in cross overs for my boobs, but its working fairly well in this size the 22 would have been huge under my arms.

Please also ignore my hair, it wouldn't play ball my curls turned into frizz, I would have lovely smooth curls at a party!

So have you found your perfect Part Dress? I highly recommend a visit to Simply Be
