Flash The Flesh

A couple of weeks ago during our weekly Sunday #psbloggerschat over on Twitter a group of us bloggers were talking about our preferences between mini and maxi's and Becky over at www.doesmyblogmakemelookfat.com  thought that it would be great to create a challenge with the goal being to show a little bit more skin and our body (but with style and no vulgarity) showing proudly our curves. And so “Flash the Flesh” was born.

My own particular challenge is to 'flash some leg'.

I don't like my legs at all and so this is my quest to try to learn to love them. 

The reason's I don't like them:

a) They are short and stumpy

b) They are so white and pasty

c) I suffer from really dry skin on them

d) I bruise easily on them, if you look closely enough you can see some bruises. 

I made the most of the sunshine we had last weekend to take the pics and get me pins out. 

I'm not gonna lie the thought of posting a pic of my legs is pretty daunting, I would normal wear this dress with either tights or leggings, but I NEED to embrace them and embrace them I shall... with you all!!

Outfit:

Dress: Inspire at New Look

Wedges: Simply Be

Cardi: George @ Asda

Sunnies: Primark

Outside My Comfort Zone Challenge 4 - Orange / Floral / Bright Lipstick

Hi Everyone,

Two posts in one day, I'm really spoiling you ;)

I'm a bit behind on this post as some of you may know my nan has been really poorly. 

She seems to be on the mend and fingers crossed all will be OK.

So, tonight I finally got around to the challenge that Rachel at HappynessMagnet set.

This weeks challenge was: Orange / Floral / Bright Lipstick

I'm already quite a fan of orange 

This particular orange blouse is an old one from Primark along with an old New Look Vest top.

The pyjama floral trousers are from Simply Be I got them a little while ago and and have been waiting for an excuse to wear them.

I wore them for the first time over the weekend when we had that teeny bit of sun and I really can't wait for the summer now to show them off properly.

 Floral print trousers are a big deal this summer and I have already invested in a few different pairs which no doubt will be appearing on the blog at various points and will be in my suitcase in 5 weeks when we go to Majorca, yippie!!!

As for bright lippie, no problem.... Bright Lips are my favourite, this shade is 'Passionfruit' from Collection 2000, its a shimmery coral colour to accompany the blouse.

My necklace is a little bargain that I picked up from a local charity shop for £2, I jazzed it up with some glittery nail varnish and I'm really pleased with the result.

Why don't you check out how the other girls took on their challenges?
