Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all my readers! I must apologise for the lack of blogging in December, real life kind of took over, but a big thank you for all the lovely messages from so many of you asking me when I was coming back.

So how are all the New Year's resolutions going so far? I am not very good at sticking to a strict diet or doing the no drinking rule in January but I have imposed a spending ban and it's going well so far. I might extend it to the end of February, but let's see how things go. For me, this month is all about wearing what I already have, having a good clear out and trying to wear things I'd forgotten about.

Yesterday we had family over for lunch and I decided to wear the dress below from Hush. I bought it last year and wore it loads, but this was the first time this winter, and I'm feeling the love for it again:


It's so comfy and slouchy enough to hide any extra pounds gained over Christmas, but you still feel like you've made an effort. For me, it's the perfect winter dress, and it's still available in a size M/L in the Hush sale in the same colour:

Hush Rosie Dress £40 from £65


It's also available in the sale in grey/black:


And in most sizes in the mallard/black:


Or the full price version in damson/navy:


I'm so pleased to have rediscovered it and will be wearing it with biker boots next time for a more dressed down look. Do you have an easy winter dress that is the perfect mix of comfort and style?

  1. Great to see you again. Great dress but I look SO bad in dresses. One day I will find one that is suitable. I have resisted buying anything until I have shed the flab (coats and boots don't count) H xx

    1. Just realised I've never seen you in a dress! But am absolutely sure you'd look lovely as always. I can't buy anything for a long time, we will see how that goes! Xx

  6. Nice blog to find out latest women fashion trends instead of watching Indian / Pakistan dramas to find out latest women fashions.
