The truth of the matter is my time has been taken up a combination of my actual proper day job, studying for a jewelry related qualification and general life stuff which meant something had to give so sadly it was the blog!
So what have I been doing since we last spoke, well apart from working, studying and joining a mixed martial arts gym not much! Yes you read that right I have joined an MMA gym but that is a post for another day!
Anyway I'm sure most of you are here for the fashion and I will be honest that after what has felt like a few months in the wilderness and losing not only my mojo but also some of my confidence in the last month I have regained a sense of self so bought a new dress for my works Christmas party.
Disclaimer some of these photos were taken at my work place in the staff room before we went out!!
I nabbed this dress from Boohoo for the decent price of £22 and I am so pleased with it, I did pop a camisole on underneath from Primark as where the dress wraps over it was quite low and draped open when I sat down! I also treated myself to my first ever Scantilly bra from Curvy Kate in the black Friday sales and you can see some of the strap details under the dress. I was going to wear some shape-wear to try and smooth out my VBO but in the end I decided sod it there is nowt wrong with my VBO so ditched the shape-wear and got on with it!
Taking my new Voodoo Scantilly bra out for the night!! #scantilly #curvykateA post shared by NattyNikki 💋 (@nattynikki) on Dec 1, 2017 at 11:53am PST
I had a fantastic night out we went to a pub called The Church, the food was great and the DJ played so many indie songs that I felt like I was a student again!
Sadly this dress is no longer online but there still lots of velvety dresses to be had!
Also huge thanks to Scantilly for finally making a bra that doesn't look like scaffolding but please consider expanding your sizes as I have had to squeeze into a 38HH which is slightly small in the cup but worth it for how the bra fits!
Hopefully I should be back soon and I intend to talk about being plus size and going to the gym!
Stay tuned!
