Thrifting Thursday!

Image
Until yesterday, it had been absolutely ages since I'd last been to an op-shop/thrift store!  The last time I went to my local stores, it was highly unsuccessful and I came away empty handed.  Yesterday I was in a different part of town, so I decided to check out the big Lifeline store there.  It was a huge store with lots to check out.  I had forgotten how much fun it can be rummaging through the racks looking for treasure!   This time I had success!  I bought the pretty paisley skirt I wore today (below) for $7, several beaded necklaces and two cuffs.  I was very happy to come away with some vibrant and fun accessories.  It was so much fun doing some spontaneous shopping yesterday, that I suspect this weekend I will be seeking out more op-shops around town!  The outfit: Top: Sussan Skirt: W Lane (thrifted) Shoes: Tie dye Chocolaticas by Hot Chocolate Design Bangle: present from Mum (Scotland) Bag: Rockmans How cool is the bangle above that Mum bough

Boho in Blue!

Image
I recently bought a couple of new plain but brightly coloured t-shirts.  In my last post, I wore my new raspberry fizz top and in this post I'm wearing my new azure blue top.  Such fancy names for plain cotton tees!😂.   In the first outfit, I chose to pair the tee with an orange and blue boho style skirt.  I love the combination of orange and blue.  As luck would have it, the day I bought this top there was a pop-up store at my local shops selling the orange necklace below!  I knew it would be the perfect match for the orange in the skirt below!  You gotta love the feeling of stumbling across the perfect accessory, right?  Especially when it only cost $5!😉 Outfit 1: Top: Katies Skirt: Suzanne Grae Shoes: Hippie Chocolaticas by Hot Chocolate Design Necklace: bought at pop-up store Ring & Bracelet: Lovisa Bag: Rockmans In the second outfit, I chose to wear the boho style pants I'd bought previously at another pop-up store!  These pant

Raspberry Fizz & Electric Blue with a cherry on top!

Image
Don't you love the names of colours given to items of clothing?  The colour of this top is raspberry fizz and the skirt is called electric blue!  How fabulous, right?!  This was my first time to pair this top and skirt together.  I love the vibrancy of the top and skirt individually, so I knew that pairing them together would make a very vivid and vibrant outfit!  I don't often put together two solid colours to make an outfit.  I never really embraced the whole colour blocking trend.  I usually prefer to pair a print with a solid colour, but it was fun to pair these brights together for a change.  That's what fashion is all about, right? Outfit 1: Top: Katies Skirt: Sussan Ring: Madame Butterfly Bangle: present from Mum Bag: Banned Apparel Necklace: Rockmans Tie Dye Chocolaticas by Hot Chocolate Design I loved this skirt so much, that I wore it a second time this week.  This time I chose to wear it with a cherry print top.  You know

Orange Ombre Skirt Styled 6 Ways

Image
When I bought this skirt earlier this year, I had no idea how much wear I would get out of it!  It is surprisingly versatile and I love how floaty and comfy it is!  There is something so fun about wearing orange.  It is such a vibrant and happy colour and really matches with lots of other colours and prints. In the last few weeks, I have worn this skirt several times.  The first two outfits haven't been seen on the blog yet, and the other four have.  It's so fun creating new outfits with this gorgeous skirt!  The combinations really are endless.  I expect to get a lot more wear out of this skirt in the next few months as the weather warms up.
