I have decided to start a new set of posts for my blog – the
ABC of shopping. When it comes to clothes we usually have a set amount that we
can spend on an item. The great thing about many plus size retailers is that
they have a range of items at all sorts of costs, so there is something for
everyone.
As a BBW blogger I want to bring you details of dresses to
suit all budgets and so I introduce to you, the ABC of shopping.
A - Absolute Bargain – usually a sale item or something that is
so cheap you simply cannot afford to have a wardrobe without this in
B - Best Value For Money – Something that is affordable and
offers great value
C - Cash To Splash – Items for special occasions that are worth
spending a little more of your hard earned cash on!
First up is a ABC on Simply Be Dresses:
I love Simply Be dresses; I really think if you look through
their website for a new dress you’ll always find something to suit you! Perhaps
what I like best about Simply Be dresses is that there is a massive range of
dresses, with all sorts of price tags attached to them – so whatever your budget, there will be something to suit you.
Absolute Bargain

Bow Print Tea Dress - £19.00
|
I actually have this dress & bought it when it was full
price and still feel I have had fantastic value for money. I love the print of
the dress and the fit is great. I really like the light blue colour and think
it is perfect for summer (if we have ever get one). It comes in petite, regular and tall which
means that it is perfect for everyone. The navy colour is also a great addition
to any wardrobe. At less than £20.00 for a pretty dress like this that you can
dress up or dress down I really think you cannot go far wrong! You can buy the dress here.
Best Value For Money

| AX Paris Black Floral Multi Prom Dress With Satin Belt - £40.00 |
I am in love with at least 95% of the dresses that AX Paris
offer up – I have so many of them in my wardrobe and it still isn’t enough. I
don’t have this AX Paris dress in my wardrobe, but I think it could well be my
next dress spend. I just need an excuse to buy it and wear it! I have a few
dresses from AX Paris in the cut and style, although with different patterns so
I know how it fits and works with my body. I love the length of these dresses
and the amazing patterns that their dresses offer. If you have a party or night
out coming up, this dress can be perfectly dressed up to suit almost any
situation. You can buy this dress here.
Cash To Splash

| Project D London Queens Print Maxi Dress Length 54 inches - £84.00 |
The Project D range of dresses first hit my radar when a
number of bloggers reviewed their pieces. This dress caught my eye because I
loved the pattern and it made me realise I simply do not have enough maxi
dresses in my life! I have a wedding to attend in September and I am currently
considering outfit options and what to wear. If I have the cash to splash then
I’ll definitely be considering this dress by Project D. The dress comes in
different lengths, so there should be something for everyone and its elastication
to the back helps to ensure that it is a lovely flattering fit for anyone that
chooses to wear it. You can buy this dress here.
So, there you have it - 3 amazing dresses to suit all sorts
of budgets. I hope to bring more ABC of shopping write-ups over the coming
weeks and months.
