Three matalan dress for curvy girls Jan 2013

This is a lovely malatan dress but l like my dresses to flare out at the waist so l didnt  buy this one  but its still very nice , this is a size 16 and the belt was to small too.

Matalan dress same as below but in size 18,this dress is  to big and  baggy but  l  brought this dress in size 16 in both colours as l will be losing the 2 and half stone l put on.

Matalan dress in size 16 a bit tight but the size 18 was to big

Must have dresses for curvy girls(size 16) this week in Matalan Christmas week 2012

price £22.00  goes up to size 18 comes in cream too

These are some lovely dresses from Matalan , there's available up to a size 18. I brought the cream dress and I love it, if I had the money I would buy all three dress. Its a very vintage 1940's style and great for a girl who wants to looks stylish but modest .The dress goes to the knee so its great for riding a bicycle in and you don't have to worry that when you go up a escalator your knickers will be showing.You could wear them with tights or long socks with knee high boots .I will post a picture of me wearing it soon.

Bra Tops from Primark

If there's one thing l hate is wearing a bra with under-wire in it, l remember a time when most bra's didnt have wire in them ,but due to the wonder bra era ,most bra's have wire in them and this makes them a no no in my book ,l usually wear vest with hidden support in them or little bra top .l got great set of two bra from primark for 5 euro, there so comfortable and give me the support l need. I'm only a c cup and dont intent to have wire digging into me all day ,who every created the bra with wire in them is a idiot,they create more problems then they solve.

Washing the laundry in duisburg

Living in shared accommodation  l have to use the laundrette to wash my clothes , as l refuse to pay 74 euro to my flat mates, to buy a new washing machine . This year l  paided 50 euro at the beginning of the year for a second hand washing machine and that washing machine lasted three months before it broke down ,then it got throw out by the  landlord instead of being  fixed, so l decided l'd just go to the wash house instead the pay money for a new machine.

I go once a weekly to the wash house but if l'm going to visit a new city, l'll take my suitcase of dirty clothes with me and go shopping and to the laundrette, it makes sense and kills two birds with one stone.

Unfortuately this time l had to go to laundrette in Duisburg,  as l wanted to see if l could live in this city ,this laundrette was so fucking dirty and unkempt but it was right across from the train station so l had to  grin and bare it . here the pictures to prove how disgusting the place was.

Is size 16 fashion seen as an after thought in uk and europe

I am a UK size 16( american size 12) , 174cm and a size 8/42 in shoes,I feel like I'm just an after thought when it comes to fashion sometimes . Its can be sometime hard to get fashionable clothes in the Netherlands where some women here since to be size 14 UK and under,shopping in Germany is  my saving grace .Shops like H and M only stock a size 14 in the Netherlands but the the UK go up to a size 16. And getting cheap fashionable shoes can be difficult here too , 80  percent of the shoes aren't in size 42(8) , they mostly stop at 40(6) its a fucking pain.

I get fed up of wearing the same shoes over and over again , right now l get my shoes from Manchester ship then to my mum house in Manchester and pick them up when l go home to England. 

One of my favourite shop is c and a ,we use to have C and A when l was a kid but it closed all its stores in the UK when l was in my teens but this shop is a living and kicking in the Netherlands and Germany , you can get great clothes from there.

 My favourite clothes shops are Primark, Asda, C and A and Mark and Spencer when l have a bit of money lol. Please check out these shops if your looking for nice fashionable cheap clothes minus Mark and Spencer its not cheap.

Orange jumper 10 euro in primark

Size 16 fashion C and A fashion

As l get older my clothes get tighter and elastic become my best friend ,Its amazing because when l was a size 12 to 14, l worn jeans and t-shirt 99 percent of the time but now those clothes are to tight .Now l wear skirts and dresses and l loving it. I feel my womanly and dresses and skirts are more comfortable then tight jeans.Its funny really as my mum wear skirt and dresses everyday, as she a size 18/20 and l couldn't understand why, but l know why now,there a big girls best friend.Here's some pictures of my new style people
