Welcome back to this week’s Confident You challenge. Last week we took the challenge to question that inner voice of yours to better equip you to ignore it when it’s being a jerk. This week I’m challenging you to find your confidence through being good to your parents, the creators of your life, no matter…

Mid-season Date Night Outfit
I hesitate a couple of times writing the title for this post. I really wanted to call it what it was, it’s all about wearing the nude skater dress and how to do it when it almost exactly matches your skin colour. BUT this is the interwebs and having a title like plus-size nude is…

Retro Polka Dot Swimmers
For my Gold Coast jaunt the team at Capriosca Swimwear decided that I needed a new pair of swimmers. And being based on the coast themselves they dropped me this cute retro suit to the apartment with a note to say enjoy, even though it’s not really beach weather. They were right, of course. The…

You can never tell by looking
When it comes to people you just can’t tell by looking. You can’t tell how smart they are, where they grew up, if they are kind or when they last went for a checkup. You can assume, in fact I was reading something the other day about how our brain filters items by processing them…

It’s finally cool enough for leggings!
I have a thing for leggings. I love them. Too many years of having to choose between whether pants fit me at the waist or in the leg left me a little OVER the whole button digging into my belly, saggy leg, can’t there be something in the middle, dear God someone help me, thing.…

My Dad and the GoPro.
My Dad declared himself the other day. This born man of the roads hopes to make a few trips on his motorcycle to some of the best spots this country has on offer. But he had a problem. He’s ridden across the Nullarbor from Perth to Brisbane so distance, time on a bike or the…
