Playing Dress-up!

-
Hi Blog Friends!  How are you?  I hope you are all well and coping with the current crisis that the world is experiencing right now.  My thoughts are with you and your families.  My family are currently safe and healthy, adjusting to our temporary new lifestyle of staying at home all day, every day!  I'm not complaining though, as I am just grateful that we are all well at this stage.  

Not surprisingly, I have been spending a lot of time the last two weeks wearing my pajamas and what I call, "my stay-at-home-clothes"!.  These are clothes that I do not even want to wear out to the letter box to get the mail, for fear of being seen!  They will obviously, never make an appearance on the blog!!  Therefore, I have decided to start playing dress-up at home and try out new outfit combinations and post them on my blog!  These photos were both taken yesterday in my front yard.  I admit I did feel a bit silly getting dressed up to go outside and then come straight back inside and get changed, but ultimately, it was fun and creative to try out new outfit combinations and get dressed up with a bit of lipstick!  So, I will continue to play dress-up as much as I can while I am (stuck) at home!

    It's pleasing to hear that you & your family are managing to stay well in the present circumstances. I really like your outfits even if you say are playing "dress ups". Amber looks lovely with her accessories & I'm pleased to see she is looking well. I would think she's spending her time mainly eating & sleeping!! Stay well, Flossie xxx

    Good on you for playing dress-up, and no, you shouldn't feel silly at all. Dress-up therapy is the best. In fact, I can imagine not dressing up, even when I'm at home all day. Dressing up is definitely essential for me. I'll only be working 2 days for the foreseeable future, and I foresee my seasonal wardrobe changeover, lots of reading, and tidying home and garden. I won't be bored at all, even if I do miss normality quite a lot. Now, to your outfits, and my favourite, which beyond any doubt is the second one. That maxi skirt is a delight, as are the beads! Good to know that Amber has her priorities straight :-) Keep safe, lovely Sasha xxx

    Ah yes I can imagine that if would feel funny to get dressed up just to stay at home, but it helps to feel a bit more normal and plus you got photos!! Love these looks and the necklace is so fun. Glad you and your family are safe and well.

    Love Amber's tips! Also I really like that second outfit!

    I'm struggling with knowing what to wear at the moment - I'm getting dressed to walk the dog or go get groceries but nothing more exciting than that. I've started getting dressed on some of my at home days, but most of the time I'm in pyjamas or lounge wear I wouldn't go outside in either! The more I stay home the safer I feel I can keep my kids though so that's a good thing I can do - no matter what I wear! :)

    Hope that your weekend is going well :) We are all staying home and staying safe.

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
