Summer Style with Yours Clothing

*This post is in collaboration with Yours Clothing

It’s taken me a while to feel comfortable in my own skin. Getting older, becoming a Mum to two children and surviving both post-labour trauma, sepsis and a global pandemic has really put my body to the test. I’ve gone from being a slender size 10 to a comfortable sized 14 and whilst social media may tell you that’s something to be disappointed about, I’ve slowly learned to embrace my curves and enjoy the body I’ve been blessed with.

I’m rapidly approaching 40 and now my mindset is changing. Instead of hating on my body or feeling self conscious – I’m aiming to enjoy my body and what it can do – it’s certainly never let me down so far! I’m focusing on health and fitness rather than losing weight, enjoying having breasts and a bum and seeing my curves as a positive.- something to be proud of.

Gone are the days of squeezing myself into clothes that don’t fit purely down to the size on the label, or saving clothes in 3 sizes smaller ‘just incase’ I can ever get back in them – instead I buy clothes that actually fit – and don’t half feel better as a result.

The school holidays have arrived and whilst we’re not going on a holiday this year (financial market crisis anyone?) I will be having a couple of weeks off with the girls and enjoying some days out and activities with the girls this Summer. When it comes to my Summer wardrobe, I’ll be embracing the floral dress trend, as quite frankly, you can’t get more comfortable in a long midi or maxi dress, no matter what your shape or size.

I recently worked with Yours Clothing to see what their Summer collection had to offer.

About Yours Clothing

Yours Clothing are the home of plus size fashionable and affordable fashion clothing for women in sizes 14-40. They have over 150 stores across the Uk and a vast online collection at yoursclothing.co.uk.

Unlike many brands who pass on a price detriment if you need a larger size on the tag, Yours offer afforable clothes that are the same price regardless of which size you require.

Their clothes are made to fit and flatter and come in the latest seasons trends – everything from outerwear, dresses and trousers to footwear, lingerie, nightwear and accessories.

Our Selections

When it comes to easy Summer fashion, the restrictions of shorts and trousers just aren’t for me. I love the ease and comfort of a floaty floral dress, which offers a versatile staple for any wardrobe.

Yours Clothing have a wide collection of Floral Midi and Maxi dresses to choose from, all of which are cut to flatter – showing just enough leg to embrace the summer season whilst still maintaining a level of comfort and coverage.

Ideal for wearing in in a variety of different styles, these floral dresses look great with a belt and white trainers or pumps for a relaxed daytime look, or you can switch the shoes out for a pair of delicate sandals or heels to take your look from day into night!

We also love

• Navy Blue maxi pocket dress – an effortlessly stylish jersey maxi dress with elasticated waist and two fully functional side pockets – who doesn’t love a pocket? So comfortable, so casual yet can be styled up and down depending on your mood.
• Limited Collection Lilac Ditsy Floral Midmaxi dress – with a scooped neckline and short sleeves, this looks great with white trainers for a relaxed and feminine weekend look.
• Floral Bardot Maxi Dress – With a longer length, we love the shirred bardot top to this dress and the two side slits that look fab with mules or sandals for both day and night.
