Can you believe this is my first outfit post of the year? All the rain and dark days mean I've found it hard to snap what I'm wearing but there were a few rays of light in my garden today so I managed to take a handful of photos. There have also been a lot less posts on Fat Frocks as I'm trying to be more frugal and spend more time in the great outdoors which means less pretty dresses *sob*
I’m trying my best to save for a house and being very strict with myself. No more impulse purchases or buying coffee on my way to work in the morning. It sucks a little but it will be worth it in the end when I can settle down and have my own lovely home.

I've been buying far more functional clothes recently like skater skirts and jersey tops which I can wear to work and layer up but I fancied wearing something a little frivolous and fancy today so I popped this Lindy Bop number on which has been sitting in my wardrobe since before Christmas.
Dress: Lindy Bop
Shoes: New Look (old)
Necklace: mynamenecklace.co.uk
Ring: Daisy
The skirt is already very full but I'm planning on wearing this with my net underskirt for a more dramatic look next time. I'm also planning on getting some Melissa shoes that are black with red hearts on to go with this dress, adding a few smart accessories like a beautiful Tissot watch that I found on watches-of-switzerland.co.uk and doing something creative with my hair like trying out some victory rolls to complete my Valentine's day look.Do any of you know which YouTubers are best for retro hair and make up tutorials?
You can get these in lots of different colours and Lindy bop sell lots of these retro style dresses for under £30. I love this dress and feel very feminine whilst wearing it. The fact that it has sleeves is a bonus so I don't have to cover most of the dress in a cardigan. I might have to purchase it in another colour...
Lindy Bop
also sell some lovely wiggle dresses and I know I will be purchasing from them
again. If you’re going to order I suggest taking a look at the sizing chart as
the dresses come up a little small and can be tight in the arm. I sized up for this
dress. You have to pay to return so it’s best to make sure it’s right before
you buy.
Even though I'm posting a little less on here at the moment I'm using instagram a lot more and post lots of photos of my dog, dresses and Buttons the bunny over on there. If you want to see those updates head over here. You can never post too many photos of your shoes and dog right?
