Hello Autumn!

-
Well, although it is technically autumn here now, it sure doesn't feel like it!  This week has been another hot and humid one and it just feels like it is never going to cool down!  Even though I have been sweltering, sartorially I've been desperate to start wearing autumn clothes like cardigans, jeans and long sleeves!  Although it is still too hot to wear the aforementioned, it's never too early to wear autumnal colours!  Maybe wearing such colours will encourage autumn to hurry up and make an appearance!  Worth a try, right? 

Outfit 1:
Top: Katies
Skirt: Tasa Jara
Sandals: Gino Ventori

I bought this ombre orange skirt last year on a mini getaway to Byron Bay and it has become a firm favourite of mine.  The store I bought it at only has a few sizes of each design, so you are pretty much guaranteed to not see anyone else wearing the same thing!  Always a plus, I'm sure you'll agree! ;)

I knew that my recently thrifted bag would be perfect to keep the autumn vibe going and of course, my groovy chunky bangle that I thrifted last year!

Ring: Diva
Bangle & Bag: thrifted



Outfit 2:
Top: H&M
Kimono: bought at Bangalow markets
Skirt: Millers
Sandals: Gino Ventori

This outfit began with just the burgundy top with the skirt, which matched well and the outfit was fine.  I felt that I wanted to add more colour into the mix and have a bit of a play around with print mixing!  The original outfit was much safer, but I felt like wearing something a bit more unusual.  It was a bit of a mishmash, but it was fun to wear, which is the whole point of creating new outfits, in my humble opinion! ;)

Necklace: Equip

I couldn't resist wearing the bangle and bag again, but this time wore my daisy ring instead!

Ring: Lovisa
Bangle & Bag: thrifted



We all know that Amber always wins this competition!  I can't compete with her kitty cuteness! ;)

    Of course, as usual, I like both outfits but am finally going to make a decision & say I like the first outfit a tiny bit more. I do like your accessories which lift every outfit. The necklace competition is very close & Amber has the colouring match so...yep she's the winner. Flossie xxx

    Isn't it mind boggling that you're welcoming Autumn while we're welcoming Spring? But just as I'm always longing for my Spring clothes at the end of Winter, I can so look forward to wearing my Autumn stuff at the end of Summer. So I totally understand, especially as I love Autumn. I'm loving your Autumnal hued first outfit and that bangle is just fabulous! But I'm absolutely drooling over the necklace you're wearing with your second outfit on which, by the way, I applaud you on your print mixing. But I really can't decide who's wearing the necklace best :-) Have a wonderful weekend, Sasha! xxx

      Thanks so much, Ann! It is mind boggling, isn't it? It's so cool to be able to see your spring style in autumn! ;) I'm slowly getting more adventurous with my print mixing! I'm usually the queen of matchy matchy so it's not easy for me! Luckily I have you for inspiration! ;) XXX

    I am loving the mix of prints in your last outfit! The colours in these are so autumnal. That's about all we can do at the moment with the humidity, haha! At least the storms are a nice change - I hope you haven't had any more power cuts! I like the little bit of coolness that hangs around for a bit after they blow through. Hopefully we get some cooler weather soon!

    Hope you have a great weekend ahead of you :)

    I would say it is a tie, you both wore the necklace well.
    That ombre orange maxi skirt is so pretty. I like the second outfit as well. Nice combinations of colours.

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
