Sasha's Daily Style

1) Anchor ring: Madame Butterfly. Rings are probably my favourite accessory of all time! Although I probably said that about necklaces and bags too!😉I love chunky, cute and quirky rings and have soooo many in my collection! I love to wear a different ring every day, so I much prefer to have dozens of fun (cheap😜) rings than a few very expensive ones! I think rings are a really fun and easy way to add some colour and character to any outfit. I couldn't even begin to narrow my favourites down to 5, so here's my top 10! (in no particular order!) 2) Bird ring: Equip. 3) Pressed flower ring: Lovisa.  4) Flower bouquet ring: Lovisa.  5) Jaguar ring: Lovisa.  6) Owl ring: Bought in Japan. 7) Cat ring: Present from mum.  8) Butterfly ring: Present from mum.  9) Fox ring: Bought at markets. 10) Cherry Blossom Ring set: Bought in Japan. And the winner is...... I genuinely don't know this time! I c...

Instant Karma Brooch by Erstwilder I love John Lennon. I love cats. I love brooches! So, imagine (pun intended) my delight when I recently discovered this brooch! For my first time wearing this brooch I decided to add it to my necklace instead of wearing it as a brooch.  The outfit: Top: Sussan Skirt: Crossroads Shoes: Gino Ventori The accessories: Necklace: Autograph Bracelet & ring: Lovisa Bag: I bought this bag about 20 years ago, so I guess I can call it vintage now!😉 I'm finally having my hernia repair surgery tomorrow so I'll probably be out of action for a little while. Catch you soon! Thank you for visiting my blog! XXX

I've only started wearing "short" skirts in recent times, as I've always preferred long and flowy maxi skirts. When I say "short" I don't mean a mini skirt, I mean anything shorter than to the ground!😂 I wasn't sure about pencil skirts (on me) at first, but surprisingly they are quite flattering! They do feel super short on me when I've been used to maxi skirts, but I realise they aren't that short and showing some leg isn't so bad after all!😉 The outfit: Top: Suzanne Grae Cardi: Mix Skirt: Rockmans Shoes: Chocolaticas The accessories: Bag: Rockmans Bangle: Sportsgirl Ring: Madame Butterfly Thank you for visiting my blog!

This is not me! Created by Senivpetro - Freepik.com I recently bumped into a former class mate of mine from university. I hadn't seen her in sooo many years, so we caught up on each other's lives with the usual exchange of info regarding career, marriage and kids. Then I happened to mention that I'd recently started a fashion blog as a hobby: just for fun! Her reply was, "Don't you have to be skinny to be a fashion blogger?" I was a bit stunned and didn't answer immediately. "Oh, so you're a plus size blogger" she said. "Umm, I guess...I just like clothes and accessories and connecting with people from all around the world" , I meekly replied. This is not me! Created by Javi_indy - Freepik.com Later, it got me thinking....and it made me mad 😠. I am not a model. I am not trying to be a model. I just happen to like clothes and accessories and looking at other people's clothes and accessories! I also ...

Today I wore my new skirt from Byron Bay for the first time with success! "Success" means the skirt was comfortable, fit well and I enjoyed wearing it! Wearing a unique skirt like this, that can only be bought at one store (Skallyrags, Byron Bay) is a great feeling. I know that it's unlikely that I will see anyone at my local shops wearing the same thing!! That is actually something that I dread. I remember way back in 2001 when I was in London, I walked into the entrance of a hotel to go and check-in and I saw another Aussie woman wearing the same top as me! I promptly turned around, dragged my suitcase and left immediately! All to avoid running into someone wearing the same top!! I remember waiting in a nearby park for ages, until the "coast was clear"!! Although I still have a bit of a "thing" about not wanting to come face to face with someone wearing the same thing as me, I think I'd just laugh if it happened now, rather than hide!!...

I have so many pretty and colourful bags, so choosing my fave 5 was not easy! My favourites change all the time, so I guess I should specify by saying that these are my fave 5 at  this  point in time!  Here they are (in no particular order):  1) Cat patterned bag, Lily Bloom. I love this kitty cat bag! I especially love that it's made from recycled plastic! I love the colours in this bag and the fact that it has lots of different compartments for all my junk!😉 2) Tokyo print bag, Robin Ruth. It was love at first sight when I spied this bag at the last-chance-before-boarding-the-plane-shop at Narita Airport!! I had to line up for ages to buy this bag-but it was worth it! 3) Purple bag, Guess. Purple is my favourite colour so I was very excited to get this bag as a present from mum! I particularly love the flower and stud detailing on the front of this bag. 4) Red tassel bag, Rockmans. Nothing beats a good red bag! ...
