Aussie Curves: Ruffles

Petticoats are a great way of adding some length to those skater skirts and dresses that are just a touch too short. ASOS Curve had sold out of my size in this tan leather skirt, so I went down a size. This just means that I have to wear it higher, so adding this white petticoat was ideal. The added bit of ruffle is a bit cute, too!

skirt: ASOS CURVE

top: PIPER WOMAN

fishnet tights: VOODOO

sunnies: COTTON ON

boots: NOVO

petticoat: ELEGANT MOMENTS

I'm a bit attached to the boho look right now, as you might be able to tell! I'm loving those earthy tones.

I found this dress for $5.99 at Savers. Score! I added the ribbon and broach for an extra somethin' somethin' and paired it with my City Chic charcoal tights and trusty Doc Martin boots.

I've been watching the Vicar Of Dibley a lot during my school holidays. No wonder I have such good self-esteem about my body these days, having grown up watching the buxom Dawn French in this show - the ultimate babe! A bosom you want to plant your face in and a gorgeous personality too!

Aussie Curves: Colour Clash

I love being colour coordinated, and in the past, I would feel aghast with the idea of wearing red with pink.

I'm not so obsessive compulsive about that now, and once I'd researched what colours are considered a "clash", I realised that there are some combinations that I love, and I have always loved. Like purple and yellow together!

cardigan: THRIFTED

belt: THRIFTED

skirt: ASOS CURVE

shirt: ASOS

shoes: JELLYBEAN

lipstick: LIMECRIME (AIRBORNE UNICORN)

Aussie Curves: Pretty In Pink

John Hughes' films have a been a big part of my childhood and teenage years. So for this week's Pink theme, there was no question in my mind - Molly Ringwald had to make an appearance. 

This wasn't too hard since...I MET HER A FEW WEEKS AGO! That's right - she was in Adelaide doing a show for our Cabaret Festival.

While not a "powerhouse" jazz singer, she was absolutely charming. I bought her jazz album after the show and lined up for the signing. I was fourth in line and she said she liked my dress!

Initially, my friends and I had decided to dress up in pink for the event, but last minute we changed our minds and decided to present more of a "mature" vibe. We certainly looked like we had it all together, but as soon as she'd signed our gear, we ran away giggling like little girls and jumped on Instagram to brag! haha!

Anyway, I'm sure you're interested in seeing my "pink" outfit...

dress: THRIFTED $6

shoes: DOC MARTEN

belt: CITY CHIC
lipstick: BARRY M, COLOUR 62

Truth be told, I hardly ever wear pink. I'm more of a purple kind of gal, so this dress is sort of the best of both worlds.

"The Bouquet dress may be short or long, tight or full, bare or modest, but in all its incarnations it is covered with embroidered, appliqued, or printed flowers...The Bouquet Dress is meant to call to mind the traditional association of women with flowers: whether you are a shrinking violet, an exotic orchid, a full-blown rose, or as fresh as a daisy, the Bouquet dress conveys that you, too, are a beautiful miracle of nature and deserve appreciation as such." - Erin McKean
