Fabulous Florals!

-

As soon as I spied this bag at the Op-Shop last weekend, I knew exactly which skirt I wanted to pair it with! I've had this skirt for about ten years now and I still love it! It's fully lined and super comfy and cool.  

The shop I bought it at unfortunately no longer exists, but it was such a fabulous shop that had such a unique range of clothes and accessories with usually only one of each item, so you knew you were getting something truly special!

I was really happy with how the skirt matched the bag! I added aqua/green accessories for something different, to complement the greeny tones in the skirt and bag.  After my success last weekend, I can't wait to go op-shopping again soon!😉

The outfit:
Top: Sussan
Skirt: Sirocco
Shoes: Gino Ventori







The accessories:
Aqua cat brooch: handmade by Dom at Tattooed Zombie
Bracelets: present from Mum
Ring: H&M
Bag (brand unknown): The Salvation Army Op-Shop

    I think that skirt and your new bag were absolutely made for each other. I also like the teaming of the aqua brooch and accessories. Another lovely outfit. Good luck with any future op-shop shopping. It is also nice to think that there is room in this busy world for recycling.

    Oh what a great find! The skirt and bag look like they were made to be worn together, it's such a nice outfit combination. I like your aqua accessories too :)

    Hope that you are having a lovely weekend!

    That's such a gorgeous skirt, Sasha, and indeed it works a treat with the bag! It was very clever of you to lighten things up by adding the aqua details, and I especially love the cat brooch! Op-shopping can be quite addictive ;-) Have a lovely weekend! xxx

Up, Up & Away!

Do you consider yourself to be adventurous?  What does it mean to you to be adventurous?  Has the meaning of adventurous changed for you as you've grown older?   The other day I was out shopping with the family and noticed a new play area for kids, with hot air balloons painted on the walls.  After a quick family game of table tennis in which I truly sucked, the images of hot air balloons got me thinking about adventures and what it means to be adventurous.   I've never been adventurous in the extreme activities kind of way, such as partaking in skydiving, bungee jumping or even hot air ballooning!  I've never been interested in the first two activities, but I would like to ride in a hot air balloon and float up, up and away into the sky! In my twenties, I was adventurous in terms of travel and exploring new places.  I moved to Japan for two years when I was twenty one and travelled all around Japan (and other parts of Asia) by myself.  I always tried ne

Colourful Crop Cardis & Midi Skirts

Our internet is in and out at the moment, so while it's in , I'm going to go for it! The outfits I'm sharing with you today are quite different on the surface, as the colour schemes are dramatically different!  The first one has lots of autumnal colours and a bit of a 1970s vibe and the second one features more summery colours with a slight nautical vibe!  When I wore these outfits recently, I never thought they were similar at all, until I was going through my blog photos and realised both outfits were made up of colourful tees, cropped cardis and midi skirts!  So in that realisation, this post was born! My favourite outfit is the first one, because I haven't worn those colours much before and I was happy pairing these items together for the first time!  I like the second outfit as well, but I do wear blue and red together quite often.  Actually, it might be a good outfit for Australia Day, which is coming up soon!

Can you believe it is almost the end of February?  I am still getting used to it being 2019, and the second month is already almost over!  This is my last week to get everything sorted out before my postgraduate studies resume again next week.  I haven't even ordered my textbooks yet!  I really need to get organised!   In the outfit I'm sharing today, I'm wearing one of my fave maxi skirts that I've had for many, many years!  I've worn it with many different coloured tops over the years, but this was the first time wearing my new burgundy coloured top.  I love the burgundy and wine colours that are around at the moment.  They're so pretty! The outfit: Top: H & M Skirt: Tree of Life Sandals: Gino Ventori Necklace: Diva I've had these beads for so many years now, but I never tire of wearing them!  They add a bit of colour and cheer to every outfit.   Bag: Marikai This bag is a new purchase.  I had been on the lo
