I can rock a midi skirt too.

So, it's taken a while, but I've finally found the perfect midi skirt for me. From Topshop of all places, and in the tall section. I have so much love for any shop that is the distributor of clothes for those people who are not of midget height. The one I have on in the photo is a petrol blue color, but thanks to the joys of a small changing room, an iPod camera and Instagram you can't see so well. I also made the bold decision to buy the skirt in black, because let's face it. You can never have too many black skirts.

So, those are the skirts. Topshop £20. 

(Which for Topshop, I thought was quite bargainous!)

The top I have tucked in is from River Island. It's a oversized tshirt. One of my personal favourite styles, because even if you're having a fat day, you have something that doesn't make you feel worse. Well, they don't make me feel worse anyway.

Unfortunately, it's no longer online, so I can't show you the proper picture.

Finally, I completed the outfit with my trusty "leather" jacket. Favourite thing, because it literally goes with everything in my wardrobe. 

Black tights and my black domino converse were my finishing touches.

Hope you like it. 

See, chubby girls can rock bodycon, midi skirts too!

Floral smock.

I am a huge fan of smock dresses. Mainly because they hide the area that I am most concious of: my stomach.

Please ignore my face on these photos. I took them at about 12am; therefore, my make up had worn off and I was a little weary.

Anyway, there is the smock. I love anything with a 60s feel to it and I feel that this dress has that feel. I realise it is short and I would more than likely wear leggings or tights with it. I know some of you reading this will, perhaps, think that is boring, but I'm trying to grow in my confidence at wearing more daring things. As I said, it hides the area that I am not most comfortable with showing off: my stomach, and has floaty sleeves which also hide my arms when I'm not feeling too great about those either. 

I bought the dress from a Next clearance store at the York Outlet. I was really pleased with this purchase, because I was, at one point, going to pay full price for the dress. So, instead of paying £40 (or maybe more) for the dress I got it for £15! See, every so often it does pay off to look in outlet shops. (I say it like that because I usually hate sales and outlet shops such as TKMaxx). I didn't buy the dress when it was originally in Next, because I wasn't sure as to whether I liked the pattern. However, with a reduced price, I decided that I like the pattern much better with £25 knocked off the price!

Enjoy!
