Feeling stripey!

-

Do you ever wake up with a particular pattern/colour scheme in mind to wear for the day?  Today I was feeling decidedly stripey (whatever that means!😉)  

I don't actually own many stripey items or many dresses, so today's outfit choice was quite unusual for me!  I have never worn this combination of clothes and accessories before, so I found it quite fun to put together!  

I'm not sure where my sudden inspiration to wear stripes came from, because it is not a pattern I choose very often.  Upon reflection though, one of the first things I see every morning is: my stripey girl Amber!


Nobody does stripes as well as she does, but I gave it a try!!😉

The outfit:
Dress: Rockmans
Cardi: Millers




The accessories:

Bag: Bought at markets (made in Nepal)
Brooch: Breton Kitty by Erstwilder
Ring: Lovisa
Shoes: H&M

    I guess it isn't hard to guess why you like stripes when you see gorgeous Amber. She is the ultimate striped feline. The outfit suits you & looks really nice. Experimenting is the name of the game.

    Your striped dress is beautiful and I love that you managed to find so many striped pieces to wear with it, even if you didn't think you had many! Amber is of course a great inspiration for you, so stylish in her stripes (as are you!)

    Hope that this first week of 2018 is going well for you! We've had such a relaxing week here, really appreciated after a crazy year last year!

    I'm totally in love with this outfit, Sasha! The dress suits you so well, and the bag is fabulous. And then of course there are the two gorgeous kitties: Breton Kitty and Amber! Couldn't say which of the two I love the most, but if I really have to choose, it must be ... Amber! 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
