Outfit of the Day and an odd question?

*****double click the photos to enlarge*****







Dress - H&M
Belt - Primark
Leggings - H&M
Boots - New Look


I love this dress its so bright and colourful and I love the fit.
Not sure about this belt with it though!


Its depressing today in weather and in my mind!

I feel low as I have still not got a job and its starting to get me down.  Some days are not as bad as others, I suppose its because the weather is horrible today its grey and dreary and I even put boots on! Anyway because I felt so low I bought a bag of greasy chips from the local chip shop for lunch! How naughty....I hardly ever get chips from the takeaway!


Anyway the question will probably sound a bit weird but then again I am a bit odd ha ha
Basically do you think my upper arms are big?  Ever since I was little I have had an obsession with my upper arms it started as my older sister once said I had big arms (as a joke) and it stuck with me! Up until a few years ago I hated showing my arms. 

I feel they are manly and big and it really does affect what I wear and how I feel.
If I walk past a guy and I am showing my arms I always think they will look at me and think 'OMG look at her massive arms she is built like a bloke'! lol I know it sounds weird but its funny how things stay with you after many years!
Anyway you can be honest I don't mind I know they are biggish anyway!


The thing is I have small feet size 4/5 and I have small hands, small wrists and I am short so not exactly built like a man but its just my upper arms I just wish they were smaller!

  2. Hi Louise
    I know its terrible how something so small can affect you and stay with you. Just goes to show really people don't realise what they are doing just making an innocent remark.
    aww thanks for your comment its very kind xx

  3. Lisa, there's nothing wrong with your upper arms! I have some qualms about my upper arms but I try to deal with it by using weights (or food cans) to tone them up a bit!

    Oh and lovely outfit! :)

  12. Your upper arms are lovely and not big at all, its sad that her reckless words have been eating away at you. You always look so pretty, I'm loving this print dress with those fab boots. I'm being tempted by my boots too.. Must try to make the most of summer first though. Thanks for your lovely comment n my blog, I think we have the same good sense of humour x
