Winter Brights

-
Well, winter has arrived in Brisbane!  This week we had a few cold and windy days, so it was definitely time to get out the jeans and jumpers!  I have lots of cardigans and jackets, but not many jumpers.  On windy days, nothing beats a jumper to keep the cold out.  There are lots of colourful and fun chunky knits around at the moment, so the other day I spied this one and bought it.  It was originally $60 and was reduced to $20, which was a great deal.  I love the colours and the zipper detailing.  I also love that it's bright and fun, which is a nice alternative to all the greys and black around at this time of year! 

Outfit 1:
Jumper: Rockmans
Jeans: Suzanne Grae


Frida Cat Brooch: Blossom and Cat
I thought Frida the Cat would be the purrfect accessory for this jumper.  Isn't she sweet?

Earrings: Lovisa
These earrings are a new purchase.  I love the colours and style and I think they complement this jumper nicely! 

Ring: Chakra 
Bag: Colette Hayman
This was my go-to bag over summer.  Perfect for hot summer days and equally vibrant for cold and windy winter days!

Outfit 2:
Top: Sussan
Jacket: Millers
Pants: Rockmans
After looking at the photos of this outfit, I made the horrifying realisation that it kind of looks like I'm not wearing anything under my jacket!  Eeeeek!  Trust me, I was wearing a pale lilac t-shirt underneath, but due to the lighting you can hardly see it!  I showed my 8 year old this photo to see what he thought, as you know you're always going to get an honest opinion from a kid!  He said that it looked like I wasn't wearing anything under the jacket and that my blog friends might faint when they see it!!  Hahaha! 

We'll, hopefully you're still with me and didn't faint afterall! 


Sammy the Smart Sloth Brooch: Erstwilder
Sammy's back!  It's been a while since I have worn Sammy, but as always, he is such a fun brooch to wear!  Nobody can see Sammy and not smile!  He has a way of brightening up even the gloomiest of days. 

Earrings: Lovisa

Bag: present from Mum (Thailand)

    What a great deal on that fun striped knit - perfect for winter! :)

    I really like that magenta outfit too - even if it did make me do a double take with the pastel top underneath looking a bit like skin tone, haha!

    Hope that you are having a great weekend! We had our son's birthday party today and it was loud but fun :)

    First of all, to put your mind at rest: I did not faint ;-) Had a good chuckle at your 8 year old's comment, though. Cheeky but cute! My favourite is your first outfit, as I totally love that jumper and the way you accessorized it. The Tucan bag, Frida the cat and those divine earrings are all perfect with it. Have a most wonderful weekend, Sasha! xxx

    I'm pleased that you have added colour to your Winter outfits as when the weather is bleak a nice bright outfit lifts the mood. I must admit your son certainly must be a bit of a character as I didn't think you would not wear a tshirt under your jacket in winter, ha.ha. Flossie xxx

Lady in Red!

Hi Blog Friends!  How are you?  I hope you're happy and healthy.  It really is a weird state of limbo at the moment, isn't it?  On the one hand, the schools are open, so life almost feels like things are returning to normal, but on the other hand, my work hasn't re-opened yet due to covid-19 health concerns!  There are some businesses and members of the public that seem to be enacting strict social distancing practices and others seem not to care at all!  It is such a confusing time!  At least during these unstable times, there is always fashion!  Being creative and wearing bright and colourful outfits, adds joy to my day.  It is something that we have control over and something that can bring us comfort in a weary world.   Red has been the colour I've worn quite a lot of recently.  Red symbolizes strength, determination, passion and love.  It is the perfect colour for these times!  Here are two red outfits I've worn very recently.  Hope you love them!💓💓 Outfit 1:

Hi Blog Mates!  I have missed you!  September has been a completely frantic and chaotic month, which unfortunately has meant my blog has had to take a back seat lately.  I apologise for being so behind with my comments on your blogs too!  I asked Amber to do that for me, but she said she was too busy sleeping and being beautiful!😹 Anyway, on to the outfits!  I had planned on spreading out the below outfits across a few different posts, but now that the end of the month has come, I thought I'd put them together into one eclectic mix of colours and styles!   Outfit 1: Top: Kmart Pants: Rockmans Shoes: Rivers Necklace: Millers Mum bought me this gorgeous bangle in the UK last year and a few weeks ago I found earrings that match perfectly at my local Lovisa store! Yay!  Ring: Diva Bag: Reaction by Kenneth Cole Outfit 2: Top: H&M Skirt: Big W Shoes: Habana Carmine Chocolaticas by HCD Necklace: thrifted Ring: Diva Bag: bought i
