You need a good coat to see you through the winter with Yours Clothing

#betheblogger
Did you hear that weather predictor guy on This Morning this week saying that he reckons we are in for 3 months of bitter coldness? Guys, he even said SNOW is a possibility (it's snow joke - hee hee)

Cold weather for me means layering up, wrapping myself up to the point of cocooning. I wanna be as snug as a bug in a rug.  I HATE being cold, so I needed to find a coat to be the final layer to any winter ensemble.

This coat from Yours Clothing is a lovely addition to my winter wardrobe, it's suitable to wear to work as my day to day outfits are corporate, this coat is smart enough to wear daily but also it makes a stylish addition to a night out outfit.
I am 5ft 4" and this coat comes to just above my knees. It covers most knee length dresses on me.

The general fit of the coat is good. I chose a size 20, my regular dress size and it fits me perfectly. Arm length and fit is just right, not too long or too tight at all. I am between an 18/20 size-wise so if you are more of a 20/22 then perhaps consider sizing up on this one.

The coat is designed in a front wrap style and the faux fur keeps your neck lovely and warm. The faux fur is soft to the touch, can't help stroking it!

Buy this Coat
The belt is both removable and fully functioning. It nips the coat in at the middle creating more definition of the natural waist. Even with an apple or round body shape this will create a waist but if you don't like a belt you can completely remove it and wear it without.  There are two front popper buttons, these are a little annoying to be honest as they don't stay together but if you tie the waist belt the coat stays closed regardless.

This coat is not really something I would wear with joggers and trainers for example but you could wear it with jeans, jumper and boots for a more casual look.

Buy this Coat
If this coat is not for you there are a load of coats available on the website <Shop NOW> and in store too so make sure you take a little look-see.

Rating:  Overall - 7/10

Potential improvements:  I'm not a huge fan of the popper buttons, as with their positioning they do seem to pop open quite often.  A securer button would be beneficial.


Would I recommend these?  Yes, this coat is a staple in my opinion.

Save Vs Splurge with Yours Clothing

#psbloggers
When you shop are you ever struck with that inner turmoil of whether you should save some money or splurge out on that gorgeous dress?  Yeah me too, like all the time, every time I turn on my laptop...or start scrolling on my phone!

So I am gonna show you two dresses which are perfect for an autumn occasion; one a saver option whereas the other is more of a splurge.

You can tell me which one you prefer...







Can you guess which one is which?

No? Okay okay...I'll tell ya!

Red Lace Dress//Black Floral Dress
The black number is Chi Chi dress - so this is a concession line that Yours Clothing sells.  I absolutely adore Chi Chi's designs they are always so eye catching and beautifully cut to really compliment your curves. This dress retails at £75.00 so this dress is the SPLURGE.  Did you get it right?

The red lace skater is one of those dresses that doesn't look very appealing in the stock photo, but when you put it on, it's a knock out number!  This dress retails at just £36.99 making this the SAVER.  

In my opinion as much as I love the design of the Chi Chi number I actually prefer the red skater. It makes me feel so girly. For the lower price it doesn't feel of a lesser quality.  They both fit equally well, they both are comfortable and eye-catching but when you can get such a gorgeous little dress for under half the price I would find it pretty hard to justify paying the extra for the Chi Chi.

Would you Save or Splurge??

Fasten your seat belts, we're ready for take-off!

#psbloggers
Props to those glam women who opt for uber stylish travel outfits, but that's just not me.  I have one underlying rule for any plane journey; comfort!

Having a pilot boyfriend definitely has it's perks, like flying to Southend-on-Sea just for fish & chips, seeing the beautiful sights of England from miles above ground or roping him into taking some impromptu photos for you at a local airfield. Thank you Andy :) 


I'm going to show you three super comfy outfits, all available from Yours Clothing which are perfect for any plane journey.


I chose a pair of cuffed joggers, a basic t-shirt and a pair of converse style pumps creating an outfit that oozed comfort.

Joggers//T-shirt
When it comes to joggers I always go for the extra baggy look, so I chose a size 22/24 and they are perfect. Just how I like them. Lightweight enough to keep you cool if your travelling to warmer climes. For the t-shirt I chose a size 20, it's a nice length (no roll up) and it's not fitted in any way.


I wanted to also give you an outfit that is versatile enough to be able to wear out on the other side of your flight. 

 I teamed a pair black skinny jeans with this white sleeveless choker style top.

Rebellion Top//Black Jeans
This top is lovely and loose, I adore the slashed back, I may even add a few more slashes to customise this top further as I am really loving this look right now.  Plus it has my birth year on it - so it was always gonna be a winner. The top is a size 20 and I could have sized down to be honest.These jeans fit so well, they hug you in all the right places and they feel so soft, just like a second skin. I chose a size 20 for the jeans and they literally fit me like a glove.


The last option is the addition of this lovely red sweater.  I always get cold on planes, so I usually pack a light jumper, hoodie or oversized scarf to add another layer.

BUY THIS NOW
Red V Neck Jumper
I like my jumpers like I like my joggers, oversized and baggy. I went for a size 20 and it's roomy - perfect! 


All these outfits make for fab travel choices, they are not restricting in any way, they are breathable fabrics which don't overheat and keep you warm when necessary.


Check this out, I even got to "pretend" to fly!  Maybe we'll leave the flying to the one with the license, eh?!

What do you go for, for the holiday journey??
