Showstopper Weekend with Simply Be

Need some showstopper weekend clothing for a dinner party or maybe a conference? Now is a good time to pack away our thick winter coats and to get out our spring dresses and heels. I have been checking out Simply Be’s spring collection to keep my wardrobe up to date with this season’s latest trends and styles.

In these upcoming months, I am going to a few friend’s 40^th parties and I might attend a blogging conference or two. I am not a fashionista but I do love buying dresses as they are comfortable to wear and there are so many choices! I am so pleased to pick these two beautiful pink dresses for this season. Simply Be stock sizes 12 up to size 32. Sometimes I do struggle to find the larger sized clothing on other websites.

New Spring Collections with JD Williams

As spring draws nearer, it will soon be time to pack away those thick winter coats and to get out our spring dresses and heels out of the wardrobe. It is also a good time to keep your wardrobe up to date with this season’s latest trends and styles from JD Williams’ new collection.

I am not an expert fashionista but I do love buying dresses as they are more comfortable to wear and there are so many choices! Anyhow, I have picked these two dresses and one top from JD Williams. What I love about this website is that they stock from size 10 up to size 32. Sometimes I do struggle to find the larger sized clothing on other websites.

The first one is the Ivory Tile Print Cut Out Detail Babydoll dress. This cut out baby doll dress comes with a beautiful floral pattern. The sleeveless dress is short at 36 inches and sits just above my knee. If you prefer, you can also use a thick belt. It is definitely great for spring/summer as it is made from a thin and light material. It is comfortable to wear. After machine washing it, it was slightly crumpled but a quick iron on low heat soon removed all the creases.

Argentina World Fashion

It is disappointing that England are out of the World Cup. Nevertheless, we still can have fun watching the other countries play. Recently, I was invited along with 7 bloggers to join in the #duckworldcup sweepstake and I have been randomly allocation Group F which are Argentina, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Iran and Nigeria. Inspired by my football team, I have chosen these two dresses from JD Williams to represent my winning team – Argentina for JD Williams World Fashion theme. I think they’ve got a good chance of winning this year!

As many will know, the Argentine Tango is a dance where the dancers embrace and have a really close connection. Their chosen colour is often red hot as to show the passion between the dancers. Hence I had chosen these two beautiful dresses.

The first one is the Joe Browns Summer picnic tunic dress. This vibrant colourful red dress comes with a beautiful floral pattern. There is elastic around the waist which emphasizes your curves. If you prefer, you can also use a thick belt. The sleeveless dress sits just above my knee.
