A year of Polly Dolly
And some of my own. I just loooooove taking the time to put together an outfit. As a closeted fashion girl this has been a huge revelation to me. A chance to hone my wardrobe building skills even though cash flow can be tight. And I can wear anything in these sets. I don’t have to worry…

Happy New Year {Oh, is that what day it is tomorrow}
Yup. The bah humbug continues long past Christmas in this household. We got a total of zero invitations to anything NYE related and thus has pitched one and are staying home. Come for dinner if you want. It is BYO. And it may or may not have been me doing all the fit pitching. I’m…

Christmas Day Dressing {Poolside}
Well. A girl can dream, can’t she. Oh goodness, if only I owned everything here so I could be so effortlessly glamous {and little quirky but oh so me} this Christmas day as my mother’s family gathers for the first time on Christmas day in years. Making a come back from a Boxing Day catch…

For you Madmother
When Danimezza set this week’s challenge I knew exactly the look I wanted. Roller Derby cool. And let’s face it. I don’t actually know much about what that looks like in real life {and I doubt it includes a sports bra, I’m thinking more a sexy demi cup bra or something}. And these looked like…

Get your tramp on…
This week Polly dolly was a little traumatising. I would select an item on it’s trashiness and then discard it stressing that someone might like it and I’d insult them. Sigh. Always the people pleaser. But I soldered on and it turns out that I did, in fact, end up wanting one of the items in my set,…

What’s better than Green?

Good Vs Evil {Naughty & Nice}
I saw this week’s Polly Dolly theme while browsing facebook awaiting for a viewing appointment. The point of this trivia? Only to let you know that ever since I have been desperately waiting for an opportunity to build my Dolly. I even held off on checking out other’s dolls until I could build my own.…

On Safari
So it was a mere two weeks since our wedding and I was preparing to board a plane. We had a house under construction and it made me nervous to leave it behind. I would also miss my new husband. Because in an unusual twist he wasn’t coming with me. No honeymoon for us. I was on…

I got a little caught up..!
I just couldn’t stop at one. I started a formal outfit and it turned into the second hot pink and cat themed outfit. And so when I was done, I went back to create an evening look. And then I couldn’t decide on my favourite. So now you get to check them both out. Which…

Moment of Realisation/Polly Dolly
So today I joined Curves. I have spent the past two weeks tossing up Gym, Curves or Weight Watchers. I have spent the last week in serious pain with a lower back strain. All in all my time had come. When my cousins joined Curves this week she gave my name and number as someone…
