We went on a holiday to goa! Hubby dearest surprised me with a Birthday trip to Goa!
A surprise trip meant, an impromptu shopping spree! I am a little to the plus size, I am not really plus size, and not really 'normal' size, I am somewhere in between! I wear a size 18 or 16 , XL or XXL depending upon the brand! So this makes buying 'impromptu' stuff next to impossible! I can never find anything that fits my bum and boob together, lol. Also mostly all cute clothes are smaller in size :/ Even if I do find something that fits my chubby post pregnancy tummy it usually doesn't fit my big bum. Being Pear shape is a challenge!
Not having too much time in hand and having a 7month old super active mumma-clinging baby, meant that I could just not go to ALL the shops!
I went to Westside first, there plus size range Sassy Soda is brilliant and is probably the only plus size Indian Western Wear clothing range that caters to the fashionable plus size girls! Unfortunately sale had just ended and all the new stock was a bit winter-y. Lets face it, Winter is coming!
I hopped on to Marks and Spencer's next, I was sure I will get my size there, size 18, just needed to narrow down on design. I don't know if I never noticed before or maybe its a new thing but I found a whole wall/section of 'holiday wear', yay! Such a relief! Also found a few pieces on the sales rack!
You can go ahead and watch the video of what I wore, or scroll down for pictures and details :
Outfit 1 / Day 1 : My Birthday! I wore this wrap around dress from Marks and Spencer , it was actually M&S Maternity size 14, but it fit me really well, lol.
I wore it with a Marks and Spencer body shaper underneath and some Kala Niketan chappals.
My husband loved this look out of them all, personally I was never a big fan of wrap around dresses but this one made me change my mind :)
I later added my Soul Sling Ring Sling to the outfit to make it easier for me to carry Aryaveer.
Outfit 2 / Day 2 : I had this long transparent shirt from AND since forever, and I could never figure out how to team it, specially in a place like Delhi it always felt out of place, fit perfectly as a lounge / beach wear in Goa though. I teamed it up with a shift dress from Marks and Spencers, and my Hush Puppies Flip Flops.
More than my outfit I love Aryaveer's Mothercare yellow Dungaree.
Outfit 3 / Day 2 : Is basically just the shift dress and Soul Sling SSC carrier, lol. My husband was worried that the long dress will get too wet at the beach, so I took it off after breakfast....although I love the feel of long dresses at beaches! Next time I won't listen to him :P
Outfit 4 / Day 2 : I have also had this shrug since forever and somehow could never style it perfectly with anything, I finally made it into a 'set' with the white sleeveless slip, its really just a slip I got along with a top from Sassy Soda . Also wearing Sassy Soda Jeans.
The key necklace was a gift from my ex-boss, its a Tranoi key, love the bag that I have with this outfit, its from Zara and it says " Life isn't perfect but your outfit can be"
Outfit 5 / Day 2 : While on the streets of Goa we changed our plans to go to the beach instead of Aguada Fort, where we were originally headed. The fort closes at 5:30pm and it was already 5:20pm, so I quickly brought this shades of blue dress off the street and changed in the shop itself, lol.
Outfit 6 / Day 3 : The day was going to be all about sight seeing, going to a church and mandir, etc, so I wore a comfortable kurta and pants from Fab India. I look weirdly older in these pictures, like my elder sister or something :/
Outfit 7 / Day 4 : We were travelling back that day and I prefer comfy wear while travelling, I wore a black and white top from Chique, a little boutique shop in Delhi, and my Sassy Soda jeans.
