Night and Day at Conference

I have truly returned to work, last week was so busy, I had a talk to give and then a Work Conference took up the rest of my week. I am quickly learning how dedicated I need to be to get regular posts up on my blog. Although I had fun with my outfits last week, I had little time to get photos of my outfits and I didn't even get a chance to take part in last weeks, Aussie Curves challenge. : (

Even though I had a busy week, the conference was absolutely amazing, inspiring even. It also provided  me with great opportunities to pull out some of my dresses I have been wanting to wear and post on here, now I am definitely in two minds about whether I should post these pathetic photos, these dresses are so beautiful and it almost feels like I am not doing them any justice. Yes the photos are very poor quality, I ended up doing 'selfies' which I absolutely hate to do, but I had to snap myself in some of these amazing dresses and outfits because I felt absolutely gorgeous in these dresses.

These dresses are very similar in style and the cut I love on me because I feel that it gives an illusion that my stomach is smaller then it actually is and as I am loving my legs these days, in this style dress they look fantastic.

I tell you, when more fuller figured women realise that all they need is a great bra to give them a waste and most importantly some shape a lot more women would feel a lot happier with how they look when they go to things such as Cocktail events and formal dinners.

I hope you all like the outfits, huge apologies about the photos, but as I said I felt great in the dresses and I am going to post them even if the photos are shitty.

This first outfit I bought to wear at a Wedding I went to at the end of last year, I have been itching to wear it again, I love the colour and so do many others, I actually done a double banger of this outfit last week, I wore this to the Cocktail Part at Conference last Wednesday night and I also wore it on Sunday at another cousins wedding. I love, love, love this dress.

Waitangi Day Special - New Dress Tradition

For those who don't know, Waitangi Day is a national public holiday, similar to Australia Day, it is definitely a CELEBRATION DAY for our family and we always like to do something family orientated. Whether it be going to Waitangi for the day and enjoying the many events that have been prepared or just plain going for a picnic somewhere.

Today we decided to head to Army Bay for the day, SUN, BEACH, FOOD, SUN, FOOD, BEACH. It was a fantastic day, remembering that we have been so lucky to be blessed with a day off in the middle of the week, it was awesome down time for all of us. 

I felt I needed to do a special post of the day, purely because I have noticed that for the past five years I have bought a new dress for every Waitangi Day, it's sort of a tradition I started for myself hehe. Just another reason to go shopping hehehe I suppose. I wish I had photos of every outfit I have had for the past five Waitangi Day Celebrations. Is this something you do maybe? Do you buy a new outfit for a annual celebration?

So this is my dress I bought especially for Waitangi, I hope you all like it!

Dress - City Chic

My goodness I feel like a City Chic Bitch, CC sales have been amazing this summer and I am in love with how the dresses are looking on me.

I had loads of fun in today's outfit. But I must admit I hate wearing white I am so conscious of getting it dirty.

I rocked my dress boleroless today and I love how the sun and breeze kiss my gorgeous arms lol.
