GIVEAWAY! Elomi lingerie and swimwear


 



Hey one and all!

So about two years ago, I was unemployed and a bit bored, and I decided to start a blog on a bit of a whim. My first outfit post was on my birthday too, so there are two reasons to celebrate today! The past two years have been great, and it still surprises me whenever I get a new reader. The support I’ve had over the years, through both the good and the bad, has been more than I’d ever anticipated. To say thank you to all the friends I’ve made, I’m running a giveaway or two for you all to celebrate.

The first one is with Elomi. I had the chance to be fitted by Elomi at Plus London 2 earlier this year, which was (shamefully) my first bra fitting ever! I went from a 46B to a 40E, which was quite amazing at the time (and officially took me out of the small boob club, I guess), and had the chance to try out my first bra from them. It still fits perfectly, and manages to do its job without my being aware of it at all (a small miracle for a supportive bra). Their lingerie is practical and functional, but also cute and colourful (which, as any fellow fatty knows, is a real challenge once you get over a 38” back). I also LOVE the old school Hollywood styling they’ve got going on at the minute – it compliments the styles so well, and of course appeals endlessly to a vintage enthusiast like me! Their size range is superb too – 34-48” back up to a J cup – so of course they were my first port of call when I wanted to arrange some prizes.

Elomi also make fantastic swimwear including a high waisted bikini that I’ve loved ever since I saw it on Bethany of Arched Eyebrow fame:




Elomi have very generously offered up a set of both lingerie AND swimwear for the lucky winner – how great is that?! All you have to do to enter is visit the Elomi Lingerie website, have a nosey around their collections and let me know which are your favourite style in both lingerie and swimwear. The lucky winner will then get both of these sets sent to them! To give you some extra chances to win, I’ve also put in some additional options for you. Here’s the new fangled widget containing them all:

This giveaway is open to absolutely everyone! It will close in a couple of weeks time, so get your entries in. Good luck!

Still wayyyy behind with all of my outfit posts - I still haven't posted about my sales purchases! Here's an outfit I remixed for work before Christmas - the dress is a summer sale purchase, and one of my staple work dresses. I'm not great with tailoring (you might have noticed), mainly because my body completely changes shape when I'm sat down (this move turns most knee length shift dresses into minis! Not good!), so I try and go for smart jersey pieces instead.

Dress, £15, Dorothy Perkins
Cardigan was one I picked up from Rebecca when we met over the summer (summer?! What's that?!), free
Boots, Rocketdog, £50
Necklace, Primark, £2

In other news, I'm super excited about Plus London 2! Claire of Monkey Fatshionista is organising it this year, and it looks great. Brands involved include Domino Dollhouse, One Stop Plus, Simply Be and Anna Scholz, and there's going to be a fashion show, pop up photography studio and a clothes swap (so you know I'm there). Hopefully I'll get my arse into gear and finish my zine in time for it too! It's open to bloggers and friends of bloggers, and you can see the facebook event here and the tumblr here. If you want to attend, drop Claire a line at supermonkey79atgmaildotcom to RSVP. Hope to meet some of you there! Link
