OOTD: Monday 22nd June 2015

Monday is always a rubbish day! It drags on and on! Wasn't a massive fan of my outfit for the day either but I was in a major rush and didn't have time to change.

I felt like the top made me look really wide and didn't flatter my new appearing waist line. But the jeans are getting looser and looser and they are the smallest pair I learn so I guess there are still positives there.

OOTD: Sunday 21st June 2015

Happy Fathers Day everyone! 

I got loads of compliments today about how I'm looking which was really lovely to hear! These photos are a little dark but you get the gist of the outfit.

The top is from a car boot sale. £1 - yes please! The jeans are from New Look, they are a size 18 and absolutely huge! I can get my arm down the side of my leg whilst wearing them. When I bought them, they were a squeeze. This week has been full of so many non scale victories, I'm actually starting to believe that my body is changing. Everyone else is starting to notice too! I love the compliments that I'm getting. I just want to keep going now and showing myself just how brilliant I can look! (more than I already do)

OOTD: Saturday 20th June 2015

During the day I pretty slobbed around in my PJ's but I went out to a Ballroom social dancing and then out clubbing so I dolled myself up a little bit.

I can really see my body starting to change as I keep going with my fitness and healthier eating. My tummy is really shrinking, as well as my thighs and my love handles.

Love the colours in this outfit too. The material of the top is so beautiful. It's got a thick under layer that hugs the body and then a really lightweight mesh that floats on top. It makes me feel so confident when I wear it. I bought it years ago and am really glad that I now have a skirt to wear it with. I used to wear it with jeans but I love the combination of this shirt with it. Especially with the lovely pattern on the skirt! 

OOTD: Friday 19th June 2015

Oh my gosh, I am so behind with my blog! Life has become horrendously busy and I have had no time at all to sit and write anything at all!

This outfit is so old! I think I bought both the shorts and the top about 5 years ago! But I fit back into the shorts so I don't care!! WAHOO! Non scale victory! 

Love how my tummy is disappearing.

#100happydays Days 64 to 70

Oooo we are getting very close to the end of this #100happydays project.

Day 64) Another new PB on the run. Feeling great! It blinking hurt though!

Day 65) Not so much happy as it is funny! I was gardening at after school club yesterday in my sandals and got really dirty feet! The first thing I said to Belinda when I arrived at ballroom was 'I need to go and wash my feet.' Got a very strange look in return - obviously! So here is me... Washing my feet in a sink at a village hall....

Day 66) Looking super hot in my swimming hat tonight at Shepperton Lake.

Day 67) Our first strawberry is turning red our veggie patch at school!

Day 68) It's 'Beach Day' at school today! Rocking the floral maxidress. Love the colour and the pattern of this dress. Looks a bit odd with the white top underneath but as I'm wearing it at school, I can't wear anything low cut for safeguarding reasons. But it's still a lovely dress! 

Day 69) My sister painted my nails for me! The are so beautiful, shame that they are already chipping off. 

Day 70) I was absolutely exhausted on Sunday after 2 nights of dancing and getting in after 3am. I spent all day on Sunday switching between napping and colouring. I have not been that tired in a really long time!

A fantastic week! Had loads of fun over the weekend but it did end in a major bed day as I was utterly shattered! Check back in soon for this weeks happy days.

OOTD: Thursday 18th June 2015

Today was a really random day. I started off feeling really quite thin and then as the day went on I got more and more worried that I look horrendously like a hippo on what I was wearing. I bought this T-shirt a year ago (without trying it on) at a festival I was working at and it was so tight that I refused to wear it in public. The fact that I will now wear it to work speaks volumes. However, I would still like it to fit better than it does.

The battle against my spare tire continues.

In the picture below, especially, I can see how my body has already changed! I can't wait to see how it looks in a couple of months when I have shifted some more lbs! 

So, like I said, the top is from a festival stall that I cannot remember the name of and the trousers are from Next. I wore the same sandals from JustFab again. I wanted to be summery but Thursday is gardening day so I went for trousers. Still managed to top up my tan! Wahey!

OOTD: Wednesday 17th June 2015

Today I embraced the summer - even though the morning was actually cold! This dress is orignally from Sainsbury's in their TU collection but I got at a car boot sale. Still in perfect condition and less than half the price, I can guarantee! It's a big win all round!

My waist is kind of emerging here. I like the cut of the dress a lot. I have to wear a little crop top underneath to raise the 'dip' of the neck line. It's a little low cut for school but a small vest top does the trick just fine to make it appropriate. I'm wearing a spaghetti strap, navy blue vest top underneath the dress here. It was from New Look about 3 years ago and I still wear it under things all the time and when it's really hot - by itself. 

The sandals are from JustFab, I love them. I've literally worn them every day this week so far - I am getting tan lines on my feet from wearing them so much! They have a lovely jeweled panel up the middle which is really pretty and they pretty much cover my tattoo which is also a bonus for the classroom. 

If/when I remember I will take a close up picture of the sandals and post it. I love them
