Anna Scholtz At The Wedding

Hello beautiful people, hope everyone has enjoyed their weekend so far! I had the weekend off and got to share a really special day on Saturday, a day filled with love and plenty of wine.  I got to attend my flatmates little sisters wedding! What a beautiful day! The only bad thing was my battery died on my camera *sobs*  I only got to take a few pics, I was lucky to even get a pic of myself!

I decided to order the Kimono Sleeve Anna Scholtz dress for this event from Simply Be


The colour was a beautiful burnt orange. My only problem with this dress was the material! It hid the stomach bulge nicely but because it was slightly clingy it showed my dimples in my butt, thighs what ever it grazed! I was determined to wear this dress so I had to buy a slip (undergarment) when I tried it on I found it still showed my lumps and bumps!  In the end I had to wear the slip and my chaffing shorts for it to work! I did get a little hot at times but I was pleased with the end result, I just wish I had more pictures for you!
Shoes-Fearne Cotton
Necklace-New Look
I think I love weddings, they make me happy and hopeful for the future! I'm such a romantic!
Hope your weekend is full of love.  Thanks for reading. XOXO

Valentines Day Fail = The Bitching Post!!

Hope everybody had a wonderful valentines day, whether you spent it with the love of your life or the people you love in your life! Now we are over with the pleasantries.......


c/o Google Images
 I AM MAD MAD MAD! (yes I did just shout that) What you have to understand people is that I haven't had a chance to have a real valentines day in a long time, so of course I was super excited to finally be able to have a romantic date since I now have a boyfriend to share the day with! To make sure it was perfect I even requested valentines day off work because if I didn't do that I would have had to work the late shift! I had my present already, weeks in advance, it was just a matter of wrapping it!

As the day crept nearer, I got more excited, we never discussed the plan for the day, I didn't really wanna know what he had planned because I wanted everything to be a surprise, I had no doubts in him, I mean the man bought me a Blackberry for Christmas!!
I had even planned to do an OOTD post on my planned outfit for the night!
So the night before we had some "communication problems" we didn't speak that much because he was busy ( he is in the process of finding a new place to live) running around with estate agents. So I left him to it and thought I would just talk to him tomorrow!

So it's V Day, I text him Happy V Day as soon as I am up, he text's back but no mention of the plans for the day. I leave him for a couple of hours then I can't stand it any longer I message him asking him the plans for the day! His reply was " I have to be at the estate agents before 5pm and I have two work visits to do :-(.
Ok in my head I am thinking your not answering my question, what are you telling me exactly? I say so you are busy, well I am going to go do some shopping up west! I ask him what time will he be home, he says 6pm. Now in my head I am thinking that's not late at all!!
I go about my day, I am feeling irritated by this point as I have no clue as to what is going, while I am out I get another text saying he should be home soon, but he has to be up at 6am for work.  Now I am thinking this dude can't be serious (usually being up early is code for I can't see you tonight) I then say "so I guess I won't be seeing you today!" his reply was his battery was dying, he will text when he gets home.

7pm I get a message saying he is home asking how my day was, I say I am still out and about! Bearing in mind people he hasn't even apologised to me! I am absolutely fuming!! So I tell him he owes me a decent Valentines Day! Only then does he give any kind of acknowledgement  "I will make it up to you :-(" by then the damage is done, that does not cut it, that does not pass the grade for an apology! I can't even begin to describe my anger.  I just leave it at that before I say something I regret!

So once again another Valentines Day flop! Not even a card, or chocolates or

 Don't get me wrong, I have no problem in spending Valentines alone in that way, but why should I if I have a "man" in my life!!
Even if he was truly busy that's ok, I just don't like how he handled the whole thing, he should have come better than that! E.g. " Babe I'm sorry about today, just been really busy, I promise to make it up to you" or a phone call of that nature! Without me having to prompt him to say sorry! I don't like being treated like the chick on the side! Right now I am still cheesed off so all I can muster is the cold shoulder!
 Sometimes it's better to be single, you don't get disappointment when all you have is yourself to rely on! That's one thing about relationships I never could stand, and I had a lot of it with my Ex.  I know perfection doesn't exist but I can't help but have high expectations maybe that's the Virgo in me!

 P.S. Maybe  I'll do that outfit post anyway! Thanks for reading XOXO

A Girl Can Want





  1. Bespoke Monochrome Dress-Simply Be
  2. Anna Scholz Kimono Sleeve Dress-Simply Be
  3. Fringe Kimono Blouse by Love Label-Isme
  4. Peplum Skirt  by Love Label-Isme
  5. Aztec Print Sweat Top by Love Label-Isme     




It's just too cold right now! I am not coping in these minus conditions especially when my job has me standing outside in them for 8 hours!! All i wanna do after a long day is go home, get into my pyjamas and put that kettle on! I swear spring needs to hurry up already! Plus there are predictions of snow at the weekend Grrrrrrrrrr, I am definitely staying in this weekend!

Anyway lets get back to what makes me warm and fuzzy inside, Internet window shopping! (I.W.S)
Right now its all about the online catalogue purchases for me.  As much as I do love Simply Be, Isme seems to be taking over.  It's more of a straight sized catalogue but it does have a lot of straight sizes available for us larger ladies! Plus i find a lot of it more youthful, less frumpy because it's available to all sizes (well most)

Is anyone else loving the peplum trend? I am loooving it, not only is it my sexy secret weapon of 2012 the pencil skirt, the peplum frill hides a multitude of sins, I don't even need support panties with it! No more long trips to the toilet having to spend an extra 10mins of my time fixing my support pants! I just pee and go! #Flipshairandstrutsoff.  Thanks for reading. XOXO
