Outfit:
I found this dress for an absolute steal on My Kind of Dress, a company based in Ireland that sells utterly gorgeous dresses and seperates perfect for weddings and other events. I found the plunge neckline flattering on my more generous chest while the stretchy fabric helped with actually fitting both my backside and waist in, a daily struggle. This dress also has a cut out detailing on the back, perfectly positioned so I was able to wear my normal bra, a real win in my books.
I paired the dress with my gorgeous red Ivy heels from Ruby Shoo and the matching Brighton bag. The shoes I had purchased from my work and the bag I found on amazon when we were invited to the wedding as I was determined to wear these heels. Surprisingly comfortable, I wore these heels for around 5 hours having worked a full day beforehand, I am very tempted to get these in more colours!
Makeup and Hair:
For my hair and makeup I kept it relatively simple to let my accessories do the talking, My hair is an unruly mop and tends to do as it wishes so I have learnt to just give it a good brush and let it do its thing. I wore my usual base which I am planning a post about soon. For my eyes I used my Naked basics palette from Urban Decay to create a soft smoky eye and packed Space Cowboy glitter by them over the top. I always wear a winged liner, current favourite being Soap and Glory and my lipstick is Red Carpet by Charlotte Tilbury.
I really loved this look and trying to embrace my figure a bit more, I have struggled with the way I look over the years as most of us have but my other half thinks I'm 'comfortaboobles' and to me that's all that matters,
