My idea of a picnic involves about a billion dollars spent at the local deli to adequately satisfy my love of all things antipasto, crusty bread and fresh fruits. Seriously. When we picnic we picnic haaard. This time though, we were off to brunch. I was just awake...

My mother is a real estate agent. In the 90’s she was well into her awarded career and had the power-suited wardrobe to prove it. Jackets with matching skirts everywhere. Jackets in general appear to be her thing. And during a recent clean out I grabbed three...

OMG off the runway almost sent me into a crazy spiral of self-doubt. Runway, like I said to the ladies on the Aussie Curves Facebook page, is like declaring that you believe that your outfit is current and trendy and awesome. Runway worthy. And what if you’re...

I used to have an aversion to sequins. I loved the look of them but hated the scratchiness. Annoying with a capital A. So I didn’t wear them. In fact I even sold many the sequin item that was given to me or purchased on a whim and inevitably discarded. This...

Like most themes, it takes me a little moving around of things to make it work. I like to choose an outfit and then hang it up to wait for an occasion. This jumpsuit arrived in the mail and I wore it two days later. I’d planned necklaces and bangles and all...

I can’t really share a full photo of what I’ll be wearing Valentine’s Day here. The whole make sure I’m wearing clothes on the internet personal rule forbids such things. Haha. But I’m okay with that. It’s meant to be a surprise...

This post contains items originally gifted for review. Like a million years ago. Well, it’s activewear week and while it’s not really “fashion” {maybe I should have attempted a Sports Luxe themed post} it’s essential to the big girl on...

Animal print and I don’t really like each other much. We like each other very little actually. There was a moment there thanks to a fabulous peplum and some killer heels I thought I might get past it… But not. Last time this theme came around I managed to...

Doubkle take week, huh? Well this very nearly turned into a triple take {at least!}. I wear this black bodycon dress I picked up last winter from the team at 17 Sundays BASIC all the time. Layered mostly. Throw on a shrug. Tucked under skirts {short or long} like in...

Breaking all the fashion rules can be as simple as wearing what you want, when you want. There are plenty of voices out there who will tell you what they think you should and shouldn’t be wearing. Even more who will tell you that there’s a fixed method to...

Resort is one of those themes that is pretty darn open to interpretation. A quick Google of Resort Fashion for 2014 shows everything from unstructured, sheer, deep v-neck dresses to monochrome, pointed shoulder, crisp over jackets. It’s like free range something...

I have a funny story about maxi skirts actually. From my misspent youth that was absolutely not misspent. I had this mermaid hemmed, brown velour maxi skirt. It was divine. It was ridiculous really when I think about it. I wore it with ADIDAS t-shirts or loose,...
