Passion for Patchwork Prints!

-

This is the outfit I wore a few days ago, which was the first time to ever wear this top!  I bought it about two years ago and for two years it has resided comfortably on a hanger in my wardrobe!  I really don't know what's taken me so long! After discovering this top, it prompted me to go through my wardrobe more closely.  What struck me was how many patchwork prints I own!  

I really do love a good patchwork print!  I like the mix of colours and patterns and the crafty, quirky, handmade feel.  It also makes accessorising lots of fun, as there are heaps of options to match with! 

The outfit:
Top: Katies
Skirt: Jeanswest
Bag: Anne Klein (present from Mum)
Earrings & Ring: Lovisa
Bracelet: H & M

    Can't believe you had that top for so long without wearing it. It's fabulous! The print is quirky and interesting and as you mentioned, totally combinable with lots of different colours. It would look great with orange too. See, you and Amber are a perfect match, so a brighter orange would work as well ... xxx

    You certainly have some lovely patchwork tops and skirts in your wardrobe. I really do like this one and am also surprised that it was hiding in the back of your wardrobe. Keep looking as you never know what else you might find!!!

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!

Burgundy & Beads!

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
