    In the dressing room – Crossroads – Premium Denim!

    It’s been a hot minute since I’ve done an ‘In the dressing room post‘. Sorry about that! It’s been a mix of not finding anything I like and not wanting to try on clothes. As I was walking past Crossroads today a few things caught my eye. Their denim, shock horror, I know! Plus their rose applique. I do love some good rose embroidery! So I thought I’d give them a try and see what the fit was like. Now you know, jeans and I aren’t great friends. Being an apple shape, finding pants to fit right that I like is hard. I’ve also never really liked thick hard denim.…

    In the dressing room! Crossroads edition.

    It’s been a while since I’ve done an “in the dressing room” post. I’ve been in a bit of a fashion rut again and am unsure about my style. I go through these periods now and then where I question what I actually like, and what I feel is pushed upon me by designers/stores/advertising/what fat women should or shouldn’t wear etc. This is something that pushes me a little out of my comfort zone of what I normally wear, but OH MY GOSH, it was so comfortable, it felt like I was wearing pyjamas. First up, this top. THIS TOP. It is made out of the softest most beautiful material, it’s…

    In the dressing room – City Chic & Peter Alexander

    The other day, I posted on facebook admiring this top (& a skirt that I couldn’t find instore). Something a little different for City Chic and quite fashion forward. I decided whilst I was near a store today to go in and try it on. I often find CC sizing all over the shop, so picked this up in a L to try. Top – City Chic – $119.95 – Tried on in a size L (Probably could go a M) It has pros and a con for me. Mostly pros. Firstly,  I probably could have sized down. The shirt is really fitted with the bandeau being slightly stretchy. The bandeau…

    In the Dressing Room – City Chic

    On Friday, I headed out to Westfield Southland, and after having a delicious lunch with my buddy Mallory, I went and tried on a couple of things in City Chic. It’s been awhile since I’ve been into a City Chic store, as I don’t have one near me anymore. Top – Simple Pussy Bow Top – Size L – $69.95 Pants – Walk on by Culotte – Size 20 – $89.95 First up a top & culotte combo. I loved this top the moment it went on the site, but I don’t generally like anything with a high neck. I decided to try it on, and surprisingly, I loved it!…

    In the Dressing Room at Crossroads

    It’s been an age since I’ve done an “In the dressing room” post, but I was truly inspired when I walked into Crossroads today. Crossroads can be very hit or miss with me. They are on trend, but often stick to a few particular trends, some which aren’t my style. However, when they do go with a style I like, I find I often want to walk out with multiple bags filled with clothing! This skirt is something I would never have thought I’d have loved, but it just called out my name. Very 70’s boho. I picked up this top just to try the skirt on with, but really…
