Colourful in Coral!

-
Hi Blog Friends!  How are you?  I hope you are all happy and healthy.  I mentioned a few posts ago that I recently discovered a fantastic brand called Isle of Summer, that is based here in Brisbane.  The clothing is absolutely gorgeous and really appeals to my boho aesthetic.  All of the designs are by Australian designers and are ethically made in Indonesia from sustainable fabrics.  I love everything about this label!  Many of my upcoming posts will feature this brand's clothing, because I have bought quite a lot recently!  It is a really great feeling to wear clothing that is not only beautiful, but ethically made and environmentally friendly.  

I've been wearing some of these beautiful pieces even when homeschooling and lazing about at home.  That's because I am sick of wearing my dull and drab "round-the-house" clothing!  It really does feel great to dress-up for no particular reason sometimes, doesn't it?  It helps to put a smile on my dial and makes me feel more positive.  

The last few days have been a bit cooler, which is so nice!  It is finally feeling like Autumn!  As much as I love the summer, it is nice to not feel hot and sweaty!  Bring on the cool, I say!! I do love that the winters never get particularly cold here though, so I can still wear the same clothes from season to season.  I just need to add a cardi or denim jacket in the cooler months and I'm done! 

Without further ado, here are my colourful coral outfits!  


Outfit 1:
Top: Sussan
Cropped Cocoon Shrug: Isle of Summer
Maxi Skirt: Isle of Summer
Necklace & Bangle: thrifted
Shoes: Instep





Outfit 2:

Which outfit do you like the best?  How have you been dressing at home during covid-19?  Do you dress-up sometimes even when you're at home?  Let me know!  I'd love to here from you!

 Thank you for visiting my blog! XXX

    Once again I'm having difficulties in deciding which outfit I like the best. Usually I'm a very decisive person but not when it comes to choosing your best outfit. I really like you can make several outfits using the same basics. This is perfect fir travelling but I guess we won't be doing that for sometime. Anyway no 1 is my choice as the outfit is a burst of colour. You are to be praised using local industry as at this time so many small businesses owners are struggling. Flossie xxx

    Oh both of these are beautiful pieces! they look so good together and apart too! I was looking at their shrugs, they have some green ones on sale at the moment I was tempted by but couldn't decide on the length, this cropped one looks so nice on you! :)

    I've been in pyjamas and loungewear most of the time, although I guess that will all change next week now the schools are open again and I'll have to actually get dressed for the school run!

    Hope you had a wonderful weekend :)

      Thanks so much, Mica! They are all such lovely pieces, aren't they? That's why I've got their shrugs in both lengths! ;) Hope you are well. I can't believe the schools are opening again so soon! Hope all goes well :) Take care! XXX

    Dressing up always makes one feel better. There doesn't need to be a particular reason for it. As my friend Vix says, a day not dressed up is a day wasted! The print on your maxi skirt and cropped shrug is simply amazing, and the colours are instant pick-me-ups! And you have certainly proved their versatility with the outfits you've created. I particularly love the final look. That shrug is just perfect with the jeans! xxx

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
