Aussie Curves: Heels

If you were wondering what the Doc Martins girl was going to wear for the Aussie Curves "heels" challenge, well the answer is...Doc Martins! My Mary Jane Docs, that is.

shirt: ASOS, size 18 (here)

blazer & skirt: CITY CHIC (XS & M)

shoes: DR. MARTINS

silver heart locket:THRIFTED

I'm starting to realize what a pear shape I am. On my top, I'm size 16-18. From the waist down, 22-24. That's a BIG difference (and a lot of booty!). The great part about that is being able to buy my tops from the ASOS standard sizes section, so long as they go up to sizes 16 - 18. This purple blouse is an example of that. Purple is my favourite colour.

I've really felt frustrated in my blogging lately because we no longer have daylight savings. This means that my usual photographer (the faithful bf) wasn't getting home 'til after dark. It has really made me realize why a lot of my favourite bloggers always pose OUTSIDE - the lighting is soooo much better and even photos taken on the humble phone can turn out alright for those of us who are more camera challenged. 

My boyfriend took a few inside photos out of desperation earlier this week, and I might salvage some of those for a blog post soon, but I was so disappointed with how they turned out. 

However, the bf's work hours have changed for the next month, so he's getting home earlier which means...more OOTD posts, yay! 

This shoot was one of those after-school quickie photo shoots outside of a supermarket! A girls gotta do what she's gotta do! The downside is that I'm not as "fresh" - blog photos are usually taken at the beginning of the event for me. But nevermind. I've so missed having more regular posts. I've only really been taking photos for Aussie Curves, but I wear so many other interesting outfits during the week that seem to go to waste a bit! Well at least my students appreciate it - "Your clothes make me happy, Miss!" - bless!

These Mary Jane heels are just beautiful to wear. Comfortable, sturdy and classic. I've never seen them in stores, but I got these off eBay from a seller in NSW, I think. I really don't wear heels, even though I love how they look on me, but these I can manage without too much discomfort. 

I'm in love with the Houndstooth trend at the moment, so this skirt is a bit of favourite with me right now. I also adore this City Chic blazer, which I purchased last year. BUT my favourite thing right now is this vintage silver heart locket which I found at a CAR BOOT SALE! I've been looking for a locket just like this for AGES. I'm so thrilled.
