Lighter

I love dark coloured clothing/items as much as the next person, but as my inner motto has always been to try and create a point of interest in my outfits, I have always felt that anything dark would just blend in and become incognito. So for as long as I can remember, when I see something I like, I always see if they have it in a lighter colour. I guess for me, I gave the colour black a stigma that it's boring. I think it's stemmed from my love of handbags. Now unfortunately I have a champagne taste with a tap water budget when it comes to accessories, especially handbags. When I used to mull over what handbag I wanted, I never chose the colour black as I felt it was too boring and mainstream. I mean everyone has black handbags and I certainly didn't want to blend in (not that there's anything wrong with that!). Plus, I figured if you're going to spend a bit on an item, you would like it to stand out, right? Well, that's just my mentality, though that's not to say I don't have anything black.

Just lately I have been leaning a lot towards much lighter hued clothing. I'm loving that lighter tones are becoming for the colder seasons where previously it has been darker, richer jewelled tones. Give me the icy greys and pretty pastels anytime!

Have a lovely weekend!

Icy

I'm pretty excited for icier days ahead. Icy is probably a melodramatic word to use, but here in Australia, when it's cold, we feel it cos we're usually so spoilt with warmer days.

It's finally sweater weather and I have been waiting patiently to wear this cosy fluffy turtleneck. 

The ripped white boyfriend jeans are new. I know I already have 2, but the 2 pairs I already had were really loose around the butt area and it just wasn't that flattering, I wanted something a little more fitted but not skinny. I eventually found white skinny jeans from Asos for $29, purposely bought them 2 sizes too big and I strategically put rips on them. I don't think they turned out too bad, in fact I love the fit!

Have a fantastic weekend!

 Michael Kors Selma Mini Messenger in Neon Pink.

This is a very hard colour to come by now. Bought at the Sydney Michael Kors store sometime in 2013.

Very light wear as you can see from the pic.

I also have the neon yellow one and have been reaching for that more than I have this one. So I am only selling this as I haven't used it as much.

 Please note that this is a PRE-OWNED item and is NOT BRAND NEW.

  

I do not come from a pet-free home, I have two fluffy cats.

Payment can be made via Paypal or Bank Deposit if you're in Australia.

I am only comfortable sending the bag out insured, it covers both the buyer and seller if anything happens to it during transit. Please contact me for shipping quotes.

Price is $400 and can be negotiable, however I will not respond to lowball offers.

For any questions, please contact me at pancakes2481@gmail.com

Thank you!

Leather Weather

It is finally leather weather! 

I got this leather jacket for Christmas and even trying it on gave me heat stroke (damn you summer!!!) I am happy to finally be able to sport it. 

My heart melts looking at the detailed sleeve. I really don't know where this intense love of leather comes from. There's a surge of excitement when I see a well made leather product, which is horrible for the wallet, but superb for the senses! Oh the heady leather aroma is my idea of sweet sweet perfume....*ahem*.

Here, I went for extreme comfort, with the most unflattering white boyfriend jeans. I mean, my ass is not usually this huge. Maybe it is, but I try not to accentuate it. Not that there's anything wrong with having a huge ass, but these jeans are so freaking comfortable that I don't care what I look like. I tried to look less homeless by adding the detailed leather jacket. Everything else was worn for comfort. I was going to a family Easter lunch that day and this was the best outfit to pig out on. I was literally at my parents for 45 minutes before a food coma slapped me in the face and all I wanted to do was go home and nap. Until the Easter egg hunt had to happen, then I came to life at the thought of chocolate eggs. 

I should say that I didn't really participate in the Easter egg hunt, I merely helped out in hiding the eggs for my little cousins but they didn't know how many eggs there were in total and I may have hid some of them in my belly.
