I love this jacket!! It's so versatile and lightweight. The monochrome style of the jacket means that it goes with most things as well. I love the 3/4 length sleeves and the waterfall draping is very pretty. The brush stroke print is so edgy and makes a boring black outfit liven up. 

I can use this jacket with skirts, dresses or with leggings and a top as I do in these photos.  It's for sale at Yours for a bargain price of £15, so make sure you hurry over and get it before it sells out. 

For the first time in my entire life I have found a bra that is ALMOST perfect! Say Hello to Rita from Elomi.

Isn't it nice?


When Bras Galore contacted me and asked me if I wanted to review a lingerie set I was so happy cause underwear is expensive and I find it so difficult to find something that fits me right.

My boobs are very heavy and big. They need a lot of support and I like a bra to lift them well up so I get more of a waist. I'm widest on top, so lift is essential to not feel that I'm a ball! Cause some bras I have tried makes my entire upper body just look like one big lump and no sign of a waist. But when I tried this bra on it was different.


 First thing I thought when putting it on was that the cups seemed big enough and that it was so lovely and soft. I chose this bra in 40K and the briefs are a size 22 .The cup size is good, but if I want the centre core to lay against my chest there is a bit of breast tissue that goes over the bra on the side.





This isn't ideal, but for me this is not a big problem as the bra fits so well everywhere else. It's soft and very comfortable as well so I can wear it all day at work without feeling uncomfortable. What I love the most about this bra is that it has a so called J hook at the back which makes it into a raceback bra. And for me that is great as it gives my heavy titties even more lift and support. I can't say how much I like this feature. All bras should have it as it makes it so useful. You can also move this hook up and down so you can fit it to where ever you find it most convenient for your body.

For my main course I had my normal Vegetable Biryani. It was lovely. Fresh and very tasty. On the menu it gave me the choice of having vegetable curry, raitha or tarka daal along it. I was very pleasantly surprised that I could chose cause I’d never seen that before in any Indian restaurant. I chose my favourite tarka daal which I love and this one was probably the best I have ever had. I loved it. Portions were plentiful, but I liked it so much that I cleared the plate. 






For Mike's main course he had Chicken Pathia. This was a delicious chicken curry which was recommended by the waiter. Hot sweet and sour with a tomato and onion suace. It was made a little stronger for him, vindaloo strength as he enjoy hot curries. It came to the table in a sizzling cast iron bowl. He had it with a very tasty special fried rice, which was near enough, a meal in itself. With lots of flavours and bits of chicken and prawns. Mike said he would definitely have this dish again as it was so tasty.






Mike really wanted something sweet after his dinner so after a lot of deliberation whether to have pudding or not, he went with a traditional Kulfi which was lovely presented in this beautiful bowl. 




The texture is a lot different to the ice cream that you're used to, but very nice and he enjoyed it very much. 




Five Rivers offers really good customer service and here are a few extra points earned at our visit:




-Waiter asked us if we wanted to wait a bit before we were served our main meal, which we thought was really good as we needed a little break after the lovely big starter. 

-Smiling and very friendly waiters and owner that always made sure that we had everything we needed. 

-Lovely atmosphere and spotlessly clean. 

-Lots of choice, both house specialities and the more traditional curries. 

We couldn't really fault the experience at all and left the restaurant just wanting to come back for more.

After a lovely and  fun filled weekend in lovely Bruges, I'm back to work again tomorrow after a needed break. I was so stressed out of my mind because of work that I got gastritis thanks to the stress. 

My nerves are a lot better,but my tummy is still not right.So I'm going back on a phased return. Will be exciting to see how i cope,but im looking forward to going back as I like my job. I'm considering to work only 4 days a week to give myself more time to relax when my health is so bad as it is. That gives me more time to work on my blog, go to yoga, swim, go for walks or just relax with crappy game shows(it HAS to be quiz shows) or police shows (which both are my guilty pleasure tv shows).

I'm very lucky with work as I don't have to have a completely different wardrobe for work. We have to have nice clothes on, but it doesn't have to be the typical office dresses or suits you see very many places. So I can wear most of my clothes to work. I love planning my outfits for work and I really like it that I can be a bit more adventurous. Here are a few examples of what I normally wear for work. 


















What do you wear to work? Is it very strict dress code or can you have dress down Friday's every day?

 The cardigan is also textured with its lovely knitted pattern. I love the feel of it and the gold buttons on it makes it stand out and look really classy even with a t-shirt and jeans.

The second pair I reviewed are my favourites. They have a vintage feel to them due to the high waist and lace details at the front. Just as the ones above these are big in size, but the quality is lovely. They are made of a silky material and a lace panel at the front gives it that vintage feel and adds sexiness to it. The mesh at the front gives these more hold than the other ones so they clinch you in more. I love it that they are high as I can tuck them under my bra which means that they will keep my back fat secure so I get a smoother outline.

Both of them seem to retain their shape very well after use. The lovely microfiber is silky smooth on your skin so they feel luxurious.

Both these are a great example that shapewear can be sexy and pretty. You don't always have to chose black or nude. I found it that wearing these under dresses made me feel more sexy as they were a perfect compliment to any black bra you would go for.

Do you use shapewear or don't you bother?
