Happy Hummingbirds!

Image
One of my favourite knit tops is this hummingbird one, that I last wore on the blog  here .  In the last few weeks I've had quite a bit of wear out of it, as the weather is in between seasons at the moment, so this top is the perfect choice to keep warm but without overheating.   More importantly, I just love the colours and print in this top and how soft and comfy it is!  Each time I wear this top, I like to pair it with a different bottom and of course, with different accessories!  There really are so many outfit combinations possible with this pretty knit.  Another thing I love about wearing this top, is that other people seem to love it too!  It's so nice to get compliments, isn't it?πŸ˜‰ In the first outfit, I chose to pair it with my purple skirt and added red accessories.   Outfit 1: Top: Caroline Morgan Skirt: Skallyrags Shoes: Neko Chocolaticas by Hot Chocolate Design Necklace: bought at op shop Ring: Div...

Professional Dreamer

How cute is the top I'm wearing in the first outfit?  I actually bought it in the sleepwear section!  I love sloths and I'm a dreamer, so buying this tee was a no-brainer!  The slogan is cute, but it also resonated with me at a deeper level.   I'm doing post-graduate study so that I can start a new and meaningful career.  It's not easy and by the time I complete my studies, I'll be 44 years old.  Some people I've told this to, have said that I'm crazy to be starting a new career at this age and that I'm too old!  To them, I say, while I am breathing, I will never be too old to dream, to study, to create and to live my life.  I will not be brought down by other people's negativity.   Now, to the clothes!  In the first outfit, I chose to wear one of my favourite maxi skirts.  I chose to add some whimsical unicorn accessories to complete the outfit. In the second outfit, I wore the same skirt but this time pair...

All the colours of the rainbow!

Some mornings I wake up with a certain colour in mind to wear that day.  Some mornings I wake up with a certain print/pattern in mind to wear that day.  Some mornings I wake up with nothing in my mind and have absolutely no clue what to wear!!πŸ˜‚That's where a multi-patterned, multi-coloured skirt like this one, comes in handy!   With a skirt like this one, the options for choosing a top and accessories are plentiful!  This could potentially cause even more confusion as the colour combinations are endless!  On the plus side, you can't really go wrong with any choice!  This time I chose to wear an aqua coloured top with a red cardi.  I chose to accessorise with colourful jewellery, shoes and bag.   This was such a fun outfit to wear!  I couldn't help but feel uplifted wearing so much colour!  Next time I will choose a different colour scheme to wear with this versatile skirt.  You can see how I last wore this ski...

Carpe Diem!

What a terrible week it has been!  It's been  a week full of doubt, stress and anxiety.  To top things off, my internet connection kept dropping out, so I couldn't do a blog post!  Blogging really does make me happy!  It helps get my creative juices running, connects me to other people and relieves my stress!   Rather than elaborate about my terrible week, all I want to say about it is, things ended up working out well in the end.  I really feared the worst, but thankfully it was ok.  I am so grateful to have had a positive outcome.  So grateful for the life I live!   Now, to the clothes!  I recently bought (another) pair of Hot Chocolate Design shoes!  I have become obsessed with them lately!  They are just so much fun to wear and so comfortable.  (As always, this is not a sponsored post: I just can't get enough of them!)πŸ˜‰ Outfit 1: Top: Katies Silk Kimono: bought at Bangalow Markets Ski...

Hello September & Hello Spring!  Can you believe it's September already?  I really can't!  I swear time is going faster with each passing month and year.  Is that just a sign of getting old?  I swear the years didn't move this fast in my twenties (or thirties)!  Right?  Ha!πŸ˜‚ Now that spring has sprung, I thought it was a good chance to look over the outfits I wore during winter.  After having a look through my past blog posts, I chose my top ten outfits.   Outfit 1 Outfit 2 Outfit 3 Outfit 4 Outfit 5 Outfit 6  Outfit 7 Outfit 8 Outfit 9 Outfit 10 Which outfit do you like the best?  Let me know!  I'd love to hear from you !
