An Autumn's Grace

I have a thing for white dresses, but being total klutz makes me fearful to wear it. I have four white dresses and this is the latest via a sale steal from ASOS:  Dress:  ASOS^ Cardigan:  South (via Very ) Leggings:  South (via Very ) Peep-toe Sandals:  Primark^ I wore this to the Pulp Fiction Geek-Out, at The Prince Charles Cinema (i.e my second home) and everyone was encouraged to dress up for the screening. It would have been classic of course to go with a black suit and crisp white shirt, but as you know, I'm not a fan of black as the main colour of an outfit, so I decided to switch it up with a white dress and black accessories. I love the sheer panel along the bottom as it adds a lovely detail to an otherwise plain dress, and black and white is a great combo to dress up or down. White is also another "fat girls shouldn't wear..." item, but as you can see, I didn't have a care in the world: The nigh

There is an awful lot of tosh us plus size ladies have to put up with, but one of my greatest banes is the list of things we're constantly told we shouldn't wear. I will never understand others need to try and police how we dress our bodies, so I was more than happy to put together an outfit that checks off so many from the "do not wear..." list: Dress:  ASOS  (Limited sizes available) Cardigan:  H&M (Grey currently not available online, but should be in store) Sandals:  Dorothy Perkins^ Bag:  Gifted Sunglasses: Spitalfields Market Horizontal stripes? Check Exposing the belly? Check Light colours? Check  Happy and confident? Check!!!! I love this outfit and it was inspired by Girl with Curves who recently blogged in this dress herself. I fell in love with the colours and the cut-out along the belly, and screams of an outfit for jumping in a rowing boat with a big hat and a glass of something fizzy.
