Animalia

What can I say about this vest? Well first of all, it's not a vest, its a dress, so it actually serves 2 purpose and it doesn't look bad being worn either way.

It's one of those clothing items that I think you either love or hate. I was initially iffy about it, is it just too trendy? Will I love it later on? To me, the answer is YES and YES! While I'm not into really "trendy" items, I however like out-of-the-norm pieces and this is one of those pieces. My boyfriend hates it with a passion. Usually when I ask him what he thinks about what I'm currently wearing, if he likes it, he will say "Yeah." (that's all I ever get!), or if he hates it or is confused by it, his reply is "Do you like it?", and his reply to this vest was the latter.

I'm never one to care what anyone thinks about what I'm wearing. If I like it, it's all that matters, yeah it's cliched, but in my time, I've had some very confusing items to some people. Very rarely do I come across anyone who has the same taste as me. Granted I dress very boring all of the time, it's only cos I dress for my lifestyle. I have nowhere Avante Garde to go, to wear something so ridiculous. But I think with this piece, I may start. If they're going to look, I'll make it worth their while, and probably cause some retina damage at the same time.

Midi

I've been loving all the full midi skirt I've been seeing around lately. Granted it's out of my comfort zone being this girly and frilly, however it's extremely comfortable to wear. I love that it's being worn high waisted, this enables me to let my gut hang out without anyone really noticing that much. So if you see me pigging out at a local Maccas wearing these skirts, don't be scared to say hi, I promise I won't eat you too.

With the skirts being worn so high, it gives anyone an excuse to wear a crop top or a midriff top, which I thought I would never go near again. The last time I wore one was in Year 8 and my best friends Grandpa asked where the rest of my top was. Funnily enough, that's how my mind works right now. Maybe I'm just jealous cos I don't have the abs of steel to rock one now.

Either way, I can totally get on board with this look and it makes me never want to look at a mini-skirt ever again.

Sun & Stripes

Finally the rain, gloominess and humidity has stopped. I figure if it's going to be hot, it should at least be sunny, not miserable and hot.

How cool is this Finders Keepers Hold Up Long Sleeve Dress? I love the hem and I really have never met a stripe I didn't like. It's apparently the last week of summer, though I don't think the heat is going away just like that, I wanted a last rendezvous with these gladiator heels. They'd look ridiculous for everyday wear, but I love their flippancy, so they only really come out once in a blue moon.

I hope you have a great weekend ahead!

Reflection

I've been in love with Cameo's Reflection Bustier since it first came out in leopard print, but by the time I really deeply wanted it, the leopard print went extinct (pun intended!). Then came out this amazing print and instantly fell in-love. I was in luck, as it was about to be my birthday and Christmas at the same time and this was high on my wishlist.

I've been desperately trying to think of ways to dress it down and what better way than to stick a simple singlet and ripped skinny jeans with it. Plus I'm definitely not one to care about clashing prints, (just as long as you don't look like a shabby chic doona cover, which I love, but I don't want to look like one) with the black and white geometric print, teaming it with leopard print shoes and a statement red clutch was just a perfect combo for me.

Happy Australia Day Long Weekend to all!

White Not?

How perfect is a white outfit to show off a tan? Admittedly I don't have much of a tan expect for my arms when they got burnt a few weekends ago. While I don't condone laying out in the sun and possibly catching melanoma, there's just something about a sunkissed skin.

As much as I love to complain about the heat, having a natural dose of Vitamin D gives you a little spring in your step.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
