Thematic Dressing!

-

I recently went op-shopping and came across this fabulous skirt!  It is fully-lined and in great condition and features a quirky and fun print with various images and writing on it.  The first word I spied on it was "Paris".  I knew then that I had to have it because I knew it would complement my "J'adore Paris" top perfectly!   

I love thematic dressing and all things matchy-matchy!  I think it makes dressing more fun and creative!  I don't always dress to a theme, but when I see something that I know will go together well, I absolutely have to put them together!

Here are two themes I tried recently:

Outfit Theme: Paris!
Top: Sussan
Skirt: Bought at Op-shop
Shoes: Rivers
Bag: Bought at Op-shop
Ring: Bought in Japan
Bracelet: Lovisa



Another outfit that just had to happen was a unicorn themed one!  I already had a unicorn skirt and brooch, so when I recently bought shoes with unicorns emblazoned on them, you know I just had to pair them all together!😉Initially I thought maybe it was a bit too much unicorn but then I thought, I like it so who cares?! Although according to my gorgeous 7 year old son, there wasn't enough unicorn in this outfit and he insists I buy a unicorn ring, bracelet, earrings and bag!!😂

Outfit Theme: Unicorns!
Top: Sussan
Skirt: Rainbows & Fairies
Shoes: Hot Chocolate Chocolaticas


Brooch (worn as a necklace): Ula The Unicorn by Erstwilder
Ring: H & M
Bag: Rockmans



Themes I've done in previous posts:

Outfit Theme: Stripes!


Outfit Theme: Dots!


Outfit Theme: Frangipani Flowers!


What do you think of thematic dressing?  Do you think it's fun or a bit too much?  Do you like to match or clash your prints?  Let me know! I'd love to hear from you!

    I love a themed outfit, and I certainly love matchy-matchy! My favourite is the unicorn outfit. That skirt is simply amazing, and I think your son is right. The Paris skirt is another great op-shop find. I have another blogging friend who'd recently posted an Eiffel tower bag, which would have been perfect for your theme! Have a lovely weekend! xxx

    I love a bit of matchy matchy, and if you have the pieces to dress to a theme I'm all for it! I'm in complete agreement with your son too, you can never have too many unicorn pieces! If it makes you smile, it's a good idea to wear it! :)

    Hope you had a good week and you have a nice weekend ahead! We have family visiting so it will be a busy but fun weekend :)

    I have to agree that I like a bit of matchy matchy. I really like your new skirt-well done at the op-shop. I agree you can never have too many unicorn items.

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
