Denim Discovery!

Isn't it funny how some of the most basic wardrobe staples can be the hardest to find?  I had been looking for a particular style of denim skirt for ages and had tried lots of local shops, not-so-local shops, op-shops and online, to no avail! Last week I went to another op-shop and began browsing.  I searched high, I searched low and then suddenly like a mirage, there it was: a denim skirt in my size!  Woo hoo!  The cherry on top was that it was only $7!  Double woo hoo!

With my denim desire satiated, I proceeded to investigate the multitude of necklaces.  I sure have honed my op-shop skills recently, as I was able to see past the many other shiny and sparkly necklaces to find the two that I wanted!  The first was the fun beads that remind me of lady bugs, worn in outfit 1.  The second was the turquoise and silver one, worn in outfit 2.

Outfit 1:
Top: Harris Scarfe
Cardi: Millers
Skirt: thrifted


I like the embroidery around the pockets on both sides.


Necklace: thrifted

Ring: Diva
Bag: Handbag Republic
Shoes: Hippie Chocolaticas by HCD
Do you like the matching smiley faces on my bag and shoes?  You know how much I love a bit of fun matchy-matchy! ;)

Outfit 2:
Top: Rockmans
Kimono: Best and Less
Skirt: thrifted

Necklace: thrifted

Ring: Lovisa
Bangle: present from Mum
Bag: Guess

  2. Well done on finding the denim skirt of your dreams in an op-shop! It's gorgeous and a great shape on you, and I especially love the embroidery on the pockets. I love both of your new-to-you necklaces too, my favourite being the "ladybird" one. I've got a hard time choosing between your two outfits, as they both appeal to me, but I'm going to go for the second one with the purples. That kimono really is a stunning piece! xxx

  3. It's the best feeling when you finally track down something you wanted in an opshop! this skirt is so pretty and such a bargain too, what a great find! I love both ways you've worn it (and you know I like a bit of matchy-matchy too!)

    Hope your week is going well! :) I've so been enjoying our cooler weather!
