Hello Yellow!

-

Yellow is a colour that I've only started to appreciate in recent years.  Last year I bought several yellow accessories for the first time.  My first ever yellow purchase was this pair of shoes.  I loved them so much that I soon after bought a yellow necklace and bag!

The yellow t-shirt I'm wearing in this post is my first ever yellow clothing purchase!  I've always thought yellow wouldn't suit my complexion, but I loved the colour of this tee so much, that I didn't care!  I just knew that it would make me happy, and it has!  

I decided to pair it with my blue/white/grey pants and grey kimono.  I also wore my recently thrifted yellow bangle too, which was fun!  Speaking of thrifting, I visited my parents over the weekend and thought I'd check out the op-shops in their area.  I took Mum with me and we explored three stores. We had so much fun! 

At the first store, I bought the bag you can see in this post.  Isn't it cool?  I love the colours and shape of the bag and it has heaps of pockets, which I love.  I also love the detachable strap so that it can be carried or worn over the shoulder.  I also bought a skirt, which you'll be seeing soon!

Have you recently bought an item of clothing or accessory in a colour that you haven't worn before/ haven't worn much of?  Let me know!  I'd love to hear from you! 

The outfit:
Top: Sussan
Kimono: Katies
Pants: Rockmans
Shoes: Rivers
Necklace: bought at pop-up store

Ring: Lovisa
Bangle & Bag: thrifted

    I think I've got most colours in my wardrobe, including yellow! Yellow most definitely suits you, Sasha. I loved that you paired it with grey. In fact, I love the whole outfit. My eyes keep being drawn to your yellow shoes. I'd love to have yellow shoes! I have one pair (vintage) but they're not the most comfortable, so I hardly wear them. Love the bag you found at the op-shop, and can't wait to see the skirt! Have a great week, Sasha! xxx

      Thanks so much, Ann! These yellow shoes were a great buy, because I don't often see yellow shoes at the shops (old or new)! ;) XXX

    Your yellow pieces all look so good together! :) I find yellow such a cheerful colour to wear too, I've really been embracing it recently. Green is the one I'm introducing most to my wardrobe though, I've been on a green buying binge which is interesting since I used to find it a really hard and tricky one to wear!

    Hope that you had a great weekend! It was supposed to be a rainy one, but we managed to get out in between all the rain which was nice :)

    I'm glad you decided to give yellow your attention as this outfit really looks good on you. It's funny how we think a particular colour won't suit us & when you decide to give it a go, it turns out to be really flattering. That bag sure was a good find. Flossie xxx

    I love the mix of grey and yellow in this look! I never thought I would wear green but starting to add this in my wardrobe. I adore the boho chic vibe here.

    Yellow is such a happy colour! I'm glad you've gotten into it, Sasha - this shade looks great on you. It's my go-to 'Power" colour when I'm feeling out of sorts. Happy week to you and Amber!

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
