The Blues

How easy are chambray shirts to wear! Not only are they comfortable but they can look semi-dressed up somehow. The perfect item for an extremely lazy dresser like me. I think the key is playing the denim hues right. Personally, I wouldn't wear the same wash of jeans as shirt, I think it would just overwhelm my frame too much.

That's why I love this chambray shirt so much. The colour blocking is just perfect for mixing and matching. Plus I cannot wait to wear it open as a light jacket during the warmer months. I am picturing it with a white billowy dress or lace shorts. The endless styling possibilities of this chambray shirt just makes me giddy!

Plus how cute is this necklace?! It's not a secret that I'm an insane cat lady and what better way to showcase that by putting the initials of my fat furry friends on these cute kitty necklace pendants.

Where did the weekend go? 

I hope you have a fab week ahead!

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!

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!

Acid Mix

I have a thing for skater dresses. They are simple enough to be dressed up or down and should be a wardrobe staple and should be owned in every colour you can get your mitts on.

You think that a bright neon yellow dress should just be left to it's own devices and should just be teamed with basic and neutral accessories, here I show you that you can throw in some print and some clashing colours aswell. Adding the military vest sort of tones it down and neutralizes all the clashing colours and leopard print.

Ok I admit, I have no clue. I could possibly have been temporarily blinded by the brightness of this dress and in the haze, think that this outfit actually works.
