We had a busy Saturday last weekend catching up with friends. On Saturday during the day G and I went to celebrate our friends 30th Birthday. We had a tea party, drank some wine and then headed out for a lovely Italian dinner at Aldo's in Brighton.
We love Aldo's and have been there a few times now. It's really proper home cooked italian food, not that expensive, and the best bit is that you bring your own booze! Love a bit of that!
I had to rush away from dinner and head up to my friends leaving party. She is headed off to a new exciting start with her boyfriend in New Zealand.
I had to get ready for the whole day at about 12 so wanted an outfit that could take me from day to night. I thought a minimal outfit would work best and opted to jazz it up a bit with a big hair style and some leopard print accessories; scarf and shoes (if only I could get leopard print nails to match!)
I often find that keeping things simple with an outfit is the most flattering. Being bigger I think that sometimes patterns, extra accessories and lots of fuss can make me look bigger, so I kept to simple lines with the sharp white blazer, some dark coloured skinny jeans and a plain black silk top.
(Excuse the background! I still haven't managed to get too arty with the fashion pics!)
