OOTD_Shift Dress

Mr. and I had a little lunch date on Friday, so I put together this outfit as I wanted to look a bit more dressy than my usual. We went to Cafe Boungiorno and it was absolutely delicious! 

Dress and Tights_City Chic, Shoes_Kmart, Lipcolour_Sportsgirl Pout About It in Orange Crush

I really love the cutout detail in this dress. It takes a plain dress to something a bit more exciting. The tights I'm wearing in this look are absolutely phenomenal! They are baby soft, the perfect fit and really nice and warm. I'm sad I didn't discover them sooner as I used to shy away from skirts and dresses in the winter due to my tights not coming up high enough on my belly. There's also a big range of colours and patterns to choose from as well. 

He everyone's enjoying their weekend.

OOTD_Overalls

As promised here are the overalls I purchased recently. They are beyond comfortable as they are really roomy but without the fear of them falling down.

Top_Supre, Overalls_City Chic, Shoes_Crocs (Thrifted)

Yep you read that right, these flats are actually Crocs brand. I really dislike the classic crocs shape but when my friend bought a pair in a Mary Jane style and raved about how comfortable they were I thought about getting my hands on some for work. Then yesterday while at Savers I spotted these ones (which fit perfectly) for $5! I quick wash with soap and water and they were ready to go. Boy are they comfy. They are incredibly supportive and no rubbing at all! 

Has anyone else tried the Crocs flats?

OOTD_Acid Wash and Platform Sneakers

I put together this outfit for work last week. I wanted something work appropriate but I had to go straight to a friends 21st so I wanted to be warm and comfy as well. Luckily I went for comfy as I didn't get home until 5 in the morning! (I'm usually such a homebody)

Top, Jeans and Jumper_City Chic, Sneakers and Bag_Sportsgirl

I am completely and utterly in love with this jumper. Plus, I get to wear it at work (Bonus!).This outfit is a lot more monochrome than I've been wearing lately, usually I'll wear a bright piece or two, but I wanted to go for something a bit different. I've been getting so much wear out of this top, it's pretty much a basic in my wardrobe now. I got these platform sneakers on special from Sportsgirl as I had been eyeing off a pair for a while. These still need a bit of wearing in (lots of blisters), but I think they will be great in a week or so.

This weekend is denim themed at work so I'm thinking of breaking out my new overalls for the occasion.

OOTD_Cropped Denim

This is a little outfit I threw together for work last week. I'm really enjoying all the new clothes I'm getting for work and am so excited to show you my new purchases!

Top, Jeans, Kimono_City Chic, Shoes_Gifted, Head Chain_Lovisa

I absolutely love peplum at the moment, I don't know how I lived without it for so long. I love that it cinches me in at the waist but also hides all the problem areas. The kimono was a definite must for me. I love floral and I love chiffon and this is the perfect piece to throw on to show the versatility of plain tops. I'm really in love with these jeans as well. I mentioned previously that I wanted to try the jeans City Chic makes for apple shaped ladies which these are. They are a little loose in the waist so I wouldn't go for the apple shape again but it's not something a good belt can't fix.

I went on a bit of a work spending spree yesterday so I have lots of new items to wear. I'm really excited to put some things together to show you.

OOTD_Peachy Keen

I wore this to go buy some clothes for work from harbour town. Unfortunately I underdressed as it was so windy and cold but it was a fairly quick trip so it didn't matter too much.

Top_Supre, Pants_Kmart, Sandals_Rubi, Jacket_Thrifted (Savers), Glasses_Ray Ban, Necklace_Handmade

I get complimented on these pants every time I wear them. I really love the pattern and they were only $19! I really like pairing it with this top to bring out the pop of peach in the flowers. I'm not getting as much wear out of this jacket as I'd like only because it has been so cold lately, but I'm sure come spring it will be my go to jacket to throw on over everything. 

I can't believe how long my hair looks in these pictures. This time last year I had a pixie crop and it's almost completely grown out now. I'll try and hunt down some photos to show you.

Makeup. Monday_Lilac Lovin'

I wasn't 100% happy with today's look. Unfortunately I had to do my makeup in a rush because I had a really full day so the colour wasn't as intense I had hoped. Hopefully I can try it again and show you all the results. I decided to stray from my usual and put a bit of colour into my eyeshadow today. I recently bought a beautiful floral sheer kimono for work (outfit post to come) and I wanted something that would tie in with the pretty pastels in the flowers.

I used a pale lilac over the lid with a plum purple in the crease. The lip colour is Revlon balm stain in Darling which I mentioned last week and I used Benefit Posie tint on my cheeks. I really like how girly this look is, next time I want to focus more on the lilac and really build up the colour.

I feel like I'm really channelling spring with this makeup, even though it's right in the middle of winter!

OOTD_First Day

Just a quick outfit post today to show you what I wore to my first day of work. It was so so cold so I finally broke out my winter coat and I was surprised with just how nicely it fit, I didn't remember it fitting this well before. 

Jeans_City Chic, Coat_Rivers, Scarf_Sportsgirl, Bag_Sportsgirl, Boots_Kmart

I'm really enjoying work. Everyone is so nice and I'm learning so much. I'm actually excited to go in everyday. These jeans are so great. They are from the City Chic TDF range which have different fits for each body shape. I got the hourglass skinny jeans in the long length (it was all they had, I'll definitely be going the short length next time) and they fit great. They are truly high waisted and have adjustable elastic on the inside if your waist is really tiny in proportion to your hips. I'm going to eventually buy a black pair in the short length but I also want to try the skinny jeans for Apple shaped and even though I'm not usually a fan I want to check out their bootleg offerings too.

Has anyone else tried the TDF jeans?
