Fashion Friday - Staple dress



Most girls have a dress they can rely on. A dress that you know will suit many occasions, looks nice with loads of different pairs of shoes, jackets and various make up looks. Well....this is mine. 

 Such a simple dress but once on looks so much more. The way it fits is so flattering and being a polka dot pattern is just timeless. The three quarter length sleeves are lovely but can annoy me at times. In the winter I like to wear this with tights, boots a leather jacket and a nice big scarf, but can easily adapt the summer weather just by wearing a cardi and dolly shoes you are good to go for a trip along the seaside. 

 Having stumbled across this during a Topshop sale I hope this beauty will last me a while as I have got so much wear out of it I'm hoping it will survive a while more. I might have to start hand washing it as it is slowly shrinking in the wash....even on a 30 wash!! :(

 Do you have a staple dress you bust out when all else fails? 

 Thanks so much for reading!
Yay to the weekend :)
xoxo

    I really don't think dresses suit me, the last time I wore one was when I was a bridesmaid about 28 years ago. I'm not sure I want to wear a dress ever again.

      Dresses aren't for everyone. To be honest I dont like to wear them too often. I prefer a pair of jeans day to day haha xo

For The Love Of Cucumbers and Skincare

AD with Yes To Good morning and happy National Cucumber Day! I love cucumbers! There, I said it. I like to eat them, drink them in juices and smoothies, and even like them in my skincare routine. Over the last couple of months I've really struggled with my skin. Getting hard lumps under the skin, and rash like breakouts that were super persistent and refused to die down. I thought about whether or not I was using too many different products and clogging up my skin, or it was just down to stress or something. All I knew was that I had to give something a go and hope for it to work it's magic on my problem skin as it was getting me down. What a day to share my love of cucumbers and my love of the  Yes To Cucumber  range with you cuties. Make yourself a cheese (vegan cheese if you're like myself) and cucumber sandwich and take a read about a range you'll want try!  It may shock you to see an entire range made with cucumbers, but it's actually a

How To Read More & What I Read In May

*gifted items and affiliate links Hi mates, it's been a while!  So, I've had quite a few requests to create a blog post all about how I read so much. Don't get me wrong there are loads of people out there that read way more than me. But I average 4 books a month, however with lockdown in the UK I've been able to rack up my monthly average.  Let's just jump straight in to how I read as much as I do. 1 ~ Choose books you WANT to read This sounds super obvious, however I myself have been known to follow book trends and pick up a book because it's all over the gram, or because my favourite influencer has told me to read it. Doing so can result in books you just don't get in the flow of reading and books you don't want to actively pick up.  Know what genres you like to read. Know what authors you like and do some digging to make sure you pick wisely. Sometimes you will be disappointed with a book that you feel you should of enjoye

Easy To Make Zero Waste Coffee Body Scrub

I'm back on this blogging hype and I'm feeling super inspired to get my space of the internet up and running again. Basically I thought I knew what I was doing in the back end of my blog (theme, settings etc) and for a few months I couldn't do anything until my friends life saver boyfriend sorted it for me! So, lets jump into a cosmetic, zero waste body care at home post and something I'm loving using in my daily shower routine.  It doesn't cost the earth, makes your skin ultra soft, and all you need are things from the kitchen cupboard.   I don't know if you've seen the companies selling coffee scrub or very similar products for around £6 and up, so making something like this thats fresh and uses up a waste bi-product and cupboard essentials means you're saving money as well as saving the purchase of a product!  Items I use in my homemade body scrub: * Coffee Grounds * Coconut Sugar 4tbp * Vanilla Extract 3tsp First things first, the co
