Raining Cats & Dogs!

-

I just love the weather at the moment: cool and rainy.  It's the kind of weather where you just want to curl up under a blanket with a good book and a cup of tea.  Fortunately, I am able to do just that today!

This is the outfit I wore yesterday.  I chose to pair my patchwork print skirt with a pink long sleeved top and grey knit vest.  I bought this knit vest at the same time as I bought my mint coloured vest, that you can see here.  I'm so glad I bought one in each of the two colour choices available because they are so versatile: not to mention warm and comfy! 

I chose to accessorise with my new necklace and bag.  This necklace is another one of the handmade necklaces that Mum recently bought at her local craft markets.  I bought the Scotty dog tote the other day.  I just thought it was so adorable and I love the colours.  I knew Amber wouldn't be impressed with the dog tote, so I added my cool Instant Karma Cat brooch to keep her happy!!😂
The outfit:
Top: Big W
Knit vest: Katies
Skirt: Tasa Jara
Shoes: Rivers


Scotty Dog Tote: Millers
Ring: Bought at markets
Necklace: present from Mum
Earrings: Rockmans

Amber: How could she buy a bag with dogs on it?  Dogs!  I can't believe it! I need a loooong nap!!

    You look really snug in your latest outfit. Vests are perfect until the weather gets really cold. I can see Amber doesn't like your bag. Poor little Darling. Flossie

    Love the Scottie dog bag! I'm a cat person, but still I can't resist anything with Scottie dogs. Totally understand that Amber's not a fan and prefers to take a long nap. That photo of her is so cute! Love the skirt and how the colour of your top matches your shoes! xxx

      Thanks so much, Ann! Scottie dogs are adorable, aren't they? Amber does look so cute in that photo! She really does look exasperated! Thanks for noticing my matchy matchy! ;) XXX

    I'm a big fan of Erstwilder brooches! I don't own any yet but I've been looking on eBay for weeks hoping to pick up a bargain. I love the cute dog print tote bag. Thanks for linking up!

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
