Where have I been?

Hi There,

I guess 5 and a bit months is way too long to write a new post if I have any chance of developing any followers! I have been a little scared of pouring all my time into a blog that no one reads but am setting myself a goal of giving it a red hot go!

What better than to share pics of my amazing Valentine's Day flowers I came home to on Tuesday Feb 14, 2012.

My Bf, E and I have been dating for nearly 2 years and have been living together for over 1 year.

We had briefly discussed Vday a week or so before and decided that since our '2 year Anniversary was only a week after, we would not give in to all the media hype that is Valentine's Day! Now in saying this, I still had it in the back of my mind that I might get the call from Reception to come and collect a large floral arrangement that was taking up most of the front desk.

Unfortunately I went home empty hand but to my surprise, I walked in my house to the most gorgeous flower arrangement I have ever received! I was so wrapped!

Every year (even when I was single) i would say that I wasn't bothered about the most loved up day of the year... But let's be honest, receiving flowers from someone you care a lot about is a wonderful feeling!

Did you receive a gift from a loved one? Do you not celebrate Valentine's Day?

Until next time, Stay Sparkly!! X x

Introducing Me

Hi Everyone,

I hope you enjoy reading my blog as much as I hope to enjoy writing it. I have spent months reading blogs about plus size fashion and fashion in general and I wanted to have a go myself.

I'll start by introducing myself. My name is Katy and I am a 27 year old plus size girl with a plus size personality to match. I am often described as the loud one of my friends and always cracking a joke. I find that if I am wearing something that I really love, I am more confident and in a nutshell, happier! Other bloggers I have read have inspired me to think outside the plain, blend into the background look and push the boundaries of fashion to stand up and be counted.

I also love a bargain. I get no greater joy than finding something that I must have and IT'S ON SALE!

So this is me. I was trying on all my dresses for a party I was going to a while ago so my hair and makeup aren't done.
