Hello lovelies,
Once again it’s Wednesday, and I’m sure you know it’s Fatshion Faceoff time! If you’re new to the blog, please see here what Fatshion Faceoff is about :). I’m so happy to be back doing the challenge, it was weird (but needed) to skip the last two weeks! This week’s theme was chosen by me, and I chose underwear as outerwear. This gives us a chance to do something a bit more daring, and to bend some ‘rules’.
I tried 3 different outfits before I chose to do this one. I had a great idea with one of them, but couldn’t do it because of various reasons.. I’m sure you will see that outfit someday in the future though. I wore my trusty biker jacket, my new wetlook-scubaish skater skirt from New Look Inspire (which is sadly sold out online already – but I have still seen them in stores) and the gorgeous floral slip from Simply Be that I modelled at Plus North last year.
Slip*: Arlene Phillips for Simply Be | Jacket: 20, Primark (similar at Simply Be, similar at Forever 21+) | Skirt: 26, New Look Inspire (A-line skirt at Forever 21+, skater skirts at ASOS Curve: 1, 2, skater skirt at New Look Inspire) | Tights: Lycra Xceptionelle 40 denier 3D tights, Yours Clothing | Booties*: Luxury Rebel via Shopbop (same in burgundy/taupe at Bloomingdale’s, similar at ASOS: 1, 2) | Glasses: LensWay (similar at Select Specs) | Lippy: Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids in Electric Orange (US link at Target, UK link at Boots)
I really like this look, it’s sexy, but not way too revealing. Not sure what would be the right occasion to wear it though, maybe a gig or a festival? Anyway, enough about me and my outfit – I’m too excited to see the other girls’ looks… let’s click to see!

You look awesome. You should rock bras as shirts more often.
Underwear as outerwear is my bread and butter. I embellish many of my own bras with studs, sequins, disco balls, beads, etc., and you can see them here, if you like: http://plumppinup.wordpress.com/2013/03/04/photos-from-the-runway-show-for-my-body-positive-line-of-bras/
