Wardrobe Discoveries!

-

This is the maiden voyage for this outfit!😉  After a close inspection of the contents of my wardrobe, I discovered this top and skirt!  I can't believe I have never worn this top or skirt before!  It is also the first time to wear this gorgeous necklace and ring set Mum bought me last year!  I thought it was time these clothes and accessories finally saw the light of day, so a new outfit was born!😉

I've had the top for about a year I think and I love the design.  It reminds me of a mosaic but in the shape of a sailboat steering wheel!  It was good to finally wear it!

This skirt is about two years old and I can't believe I hadn't worn it until now!  I bought it because I thought it would be a great neutral and it has a really nice soft fabric.  It was actually really comfy to wear too, so I'll definitely be wearing it again soon!  

It was fun putting together a completely new outfit from the contents of my wardrobe!  I vow to never let an item of clothing go unnoticed and unworn for that long again!  I'm so happy that I discovered the world of blogging, because it really is encouraging me to be more creative and make the most of the great items I already own!


The outfit:
Top: Autograph
Skirt: Jeanswest
Shoes: Instep




The accessories:

Necklace & Ring Set

    Could have happened to me! I was looking for a particular cardigan in the depths of my wardrobe last week and unearthed quite a few items I didn't know I had. I'm loving the top with the funky design and the skirt is the perfect neutral basic. The necklace and ring set is fabulous! xxx

    I'm pleased you decided to check out your wardrobe as you certainly found a nice outfit. You aren't alone when it comes to buying items which tend to gravitate to the back of the wardrobe. You have really amazing accessories which I love, as well as the clothes of course. Keep searching as there might be more hidden gems at the back of the wardrobe!!

    That's one of the things that blogging has really done for me, is to really make me wear everything worn, and to get those new things worn right away. It's hard but a fun process over time! I look forward to seeing how your style evolves as you play with your clothes and make outfits! So fun! I love that necklace & ring set of Murano glass! I have a black snake pendant that my mom bought for me in Venice - these are the kinds of pieces you'll treasure forever.

      Thanks so much, Sheila! It is so much fun making new outfits, isn't it?! Blogging really is a great way to be creative and to keep a record of your style over time. It's awesome that it's your tenth year blogging: what a great achievement! Hope you're having a great weekend, Sheila! XXX

    It's a lot of fun shopping your wardrobe to come up with outfits each day! It's good blogging encourages you to find more ways to wear what you already own too, I find blogging do that for me. It's much more interesting to see the different ways people wear things, rather than just seeing something worn once just for photos. I went on a mission a while back to wear everything I bought immediately when I wore it, and now I have nothing new with tags in my wardrobe, which is a great result! :) I've kept implementing the rule everytime I buy something.

    Hope that you are having a great weekend! Our weekend started early with a day off yesterday for Australia day. Good way to end the week!

      Thanks so much, Mica! I love the idea of shopping your wardrobe! ;) It's a great and creative challenge to get multiple wears out of clothing and accessories, without constantly buying new items! Hope you had a great Aussie Day yesterday, Mica! ;) 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
