Gorgeous Chiffon Jacket from F&F at Tesco's - Plus Size #OOTD

This gorgeous little chiffon number caught my eye last week on my Christmas food shop @ Tesco's. 

There was only one on the rail and it was a size L, so I took this as a sign that we were meant to be together.  I was even happier to find that it had been reduced in the sales to £12.00; BONUS

When I tried it on the first time, I wasn't impressed, but at the time I had made no effort to dress it up. I tried it on over baggy jeans and a slouch top and it did nothing for me...well in fairness, I didn't give the poor thing a chance!  

With NY fast approaching, I thought I would dress it up a bit to give the item it's chance to shine and my, did it surprise me...


I teamed the Florence +F&F jacket with a pair of dark blue @Primark Skinny jeans which are slightly high-waisted to create a smoother silhouette. These jeans are from the "Pull in, Push up" range which are designed to taper the waist and lift the ass-cheek...winning in my books!  I added a simple black longline vest in size 16 from +H&M and donned my patent nude court shoes from +Dorothy Perkins and a simply drape necklace in gold.
