100 Happy Days: Day 56 to 65

Day 56: Doing my first ever parkrun at Panshanger...I'm now a little bit addicted

Day 57: An impromptu glass of wine and risotto at my Dad's, I love those sorts of evenings

Day 58: Sampling lunch at The Old George in Ickleford, conclusion...I think I might have to go back and try their grilled cheese sandwich again, just to double check that it really was good!

Day 59: A glass of fizz in my Mum's garden, bliss

Day 60: A day off chilling out in the sun on Windmill Hill

Day 61: Finally plucking up the courage to brave the weights area of the gym #thisgirlcan

Day 62: Funny texts from friends

Day 63: Reminiscing on my London Marathon 2014 experience, this photo of my red and sweaty face will forever be one of my favourites

Day 64: Stopping the car outside Hitchin to appreciate the view

I love how this 9 days of the challenge really represents the small things in life that are making me smile. That's what's it's all about really.

A VERY pretty dress

I don't know about you but when I'm looking for dresses I NEVER see anything that I like. My best finds have always been something I have happened upon on browsing my favourite stores online or on blogs, this little beauty was no exception.

I first saw this dress over on Louise from Sprinkle of Glitter's YouTube channel and knew I had to check it out. I have an important wedding of two very good friends coming up in August and I wanted to start planning my outfit early. 

I've looked at the Very website many times but I've never committed to buying anything. However after this purchase the Very website is well and truly saved into my favourites (did you see what I did with the title...sorry). 

This dress is from the Myleene Klass range and I could not be happier with this. The material and quality of the stitching feels like it should be a lot more than the £65 price tag and its the sort of style that would suit absolutely any shape. How gorgeous are the colours and pattern?

Myleene Klass for Very.co.uk Floral Print 50s dress, £65, available in sizes 8-20

And of course I had to do some token silly photos...

I'm sure after a few glasses of fizz at the wedding I will be doing a lot of this, so its just practice really!

Originally I ordered a 12 but it didn't quite close at the back so I exchanged it for a 14 and it fitted perfectly so I would recommend sizing up. 

So the shoes...

These are currently the contenders for choice of shoes. I got the top pair of couple of years a go from Primark, I think they're really unique and its very unlikely anyone else is going to have them. On the other hand, I love the rose gold ones. They're pretty and super comfy as well. I'd love to know what you think, answers on a postcard...or in the comments would also do :)

I do love a good wedding, are you going to any this year?
