Had a big presentation to do on Tuesday, to around 100 people. I was so nervous. The night before I tried on 3 different outfits as I kept changing my mind. After picking one, I changed my mind again in the morning as I got dressed, and went back to this one!
This was a good choice, I felt as confident as I could speaking in front of all those people. It could have gone better, but considering my nerves and the size of the audience I think I did well. :)

Lots of orange today! Last night I read Sheila's first monochrome outfit post and was thinking about what monochrome outfit I could possibly put together for the challenge.... All blue would have been easy (you know I have lots of blue!) but I wanted to try something different.
This dress has been pretty neglected in the cooler weather but now it's spring I will be trying to wear it a lot more. I thought it would work well with my rusty orange Balenciaga bag, and the camel flats are a kind of orangey-tan. I did cheat and add a little beige with a scarf to keep me warm on the way to work in the morning.

What do you think, is it a successful monochrome look?

Short but sweet blog post today, sharing what I wore to work for casual Friday. A nice comfortable jeans and tee outfit. I've been looking at this top in my wardrobe for a long time thinking I should get round to wearing it again, today was finally the day as I was having trouble thinking of what to wear when I remembered this tee hadn't been worn in a while.

Spent a little bit of time today planning tomorrow - a girls day out is on the cards! :)

Work has been a little hectic this week - so Tuesday it was time to pull out a comfortable outfit! This tee is another one of my purchases from my DFO shopping trip on the weekend. As usual, I bought lots in Jeanswest, haha. Tried to take a photo to show off the colourblocking, as the back of this tee is pink. You can see a better pic on instagram.

I've shared a couple of times on the blog about the presentation group we have had in the office the past two months. Today was the final session where we had to present to the entire department and show them what we had learned. I was extremely nervous! Wore heels for a bit of a confidence boost, and a pretty dress. Was so pleased by everyone who turned up to support us, and all of the encouraging things people said afterwards. I know I have a lot further to go, but I've really improved my public speaking. Had a big slice of cake afterwards as a reward! :)


Last worn: Warehouse blazer, glitter beltWittner heels, Balenciaga work bag. First time I've worn the dress as it is a new purchase.


Thought I'd share with you that the Melbourne designed Kiargo and Funkita Form swimwear labels are having an end of season sale! Although it's been too cold to swim in the pool this month and I've just been using it as a photo backdrop, I'm hoping in September I'll be able to enjoy taking a dip now and then. No harm in stocking up on swimwear now while it's on sale ;) I really like the Mansfield bikini for classic pool-side glamour.

DFO Brisbane: Shopping for Father's Day

Father's Day is getting closer (next Sunday!)  so today I headed out to Brisbane DFO in the hunt for the perfect Father's Day gift for my Dad and Father-in-law. I usually find guys are so tricky to buy for.

Thankfully, Brisbane DFO has a lot of choices available for men's fashion, and some special offers just for Father's Day. We had a nice day browsing some of the stores and looking for great gifts for guys. And of course we couldn't resist buying a few things for ourselves! At up to 70% off, it's hard not to buy!

Nice relaxing Sunday. Had Church Online in the evening and spent some time outside with Cooper enjoying the sunshine during the day. Although it's still cold in the morning and evening, it's nice and warm during the day.

Just realised as I was looking up the last time I'd worn this bag that it's been getting a lot of wear lately! Should try use other bags on the weekends and mix it up a bit. It is perfect for weekends and errands though :)

Maxi Skirt, Pistol Boots, RM MAC | Skull Scarf, Striped Tee, Jeans, Converse, Balenciaga City

Here's what I wore on Saturday:



Top: thrifted 3/4 length sleeve knit jumper from AWLQ jumble sale
Skirt: Shareen thrifted brown maxi skirt
ShoesAcne pistol boots in "skin"
Bracelets: the usual plus studded and chain link Oroton leather bracelets
BagRebecca Minkoff MAC bag in deep purple


Wanted something a little different from jeans and a tee today, so decided to wear my maxi skirt with boots. I really liked the colour of the jumper and skirt together, but walking around in the heat of the day I realised I probably could have just worn a tee, it wasn't that cold. Shame Cooper was all shy in front of the camera, he kept hiding behind me, haha. Nice day, relaxed and spent some time with mum.

Today we went to a local festival for a bit of a walk around. It was really good, nice to get out and enjoy the sun. I ended up taking my scarf off for a bit before the rain blew in as it was really humid. The local church had an op-shop so I went in for a brief look, and walked out with some nice new tops. Don't often score at thrift stores, so I was pleased I found two items! :) Especially pleased at the prices, $6 for a brand new Ben Sherman shirt!

Worked at Church Online in the evening. This is the final week we will be showing movies, so if you want to watch a free movie with us, click on through :) This weeks movie is a good one if you like animated movies. I didn't get to see this one in the cinemas, so happy I get to watch it online!

This dress is another Leona Edmiston sale purchase :) I really like the print, and as it's a long sleeved dress it was perfect to keep me warm. So many colours in it, today tried to pull out the green and blues with the Rocco bag. Also a better picture of the new addition to 'the usual' that bracelets I wear - my sister brought me this cute Tiffany bow bracelet back from her travels, she got it in NY. I'm blessed to have such a generous and thoughtful sister! :)

I made yet another matches fashion sale order, haha! I picked up two Marc by Marc Jacobs scarves I'd had on my wishlist for a while, and this scarf was one of them. They are massive and so soft, perfect :)

Wearing the black trench again as it was down into single digit temperatures today. Also had to layer a singlet under the knit as it was so cold! Had considered wearing pants, but didn't feel like wearing the heels required with them. Just wanted to be warm and comfortable, and work appropriate for a big meeting.

Wet and rainy Friday, so boots were the perfect footwear choice :) Brightened up my outfit with my new skull scarf and a colourful Balenciaga. I wasn't too sure about the mix of prints with the pattern on the jacket, star print on the tee and skulls on the scarf, but I think it all worked together. Feel free to tell me otherwise and leave me tips for how to do it better in a comment! :)

Really like my new scarf, so wearing it two days in a row! :) This lilac and cobalt combination was another outfit I had thought of when considering the purchase of the leather jacket. Think the colours worked out nicely. A pink or purple bag would have been good, but picked my Bal day as I had a bit to carry around.

Thank you all so much for your kind comments, prayers and messages about Cooper and his health lately. Special thank you to Pat from Shoes of Prey who sent me a lovely email. Cooper is doing really well, although we still have to keep an eye on how much walking and running he does for a little longer until his wound is completely healed after surgery. The vet has given him the all clear, which is great! So nice to have good news!

Dress: Jeanswest Aztec print dress
Belt: Black braided belt, came with the dress
ShoesAsos Aggie leather western ankle boots in black
Bracelets: the usual plus Indigo Rose Design black leather Swarovski beaded wrap bracelet
BagBalenciaga RH city in 2008 sapphire


We had a lunch to celebrate our project success and catch up to some old colleagues who had left earlier in the project so I wore my favourite dress. Was such a lovely day and a great reward for all of the hard work.

I tried to do wavy hair again by braiding my hair overnight, it ended up looking great once it fully dried, but again, wet hair for photos. Because I pick my clothes the night before, I just have to getup and get dressed in the mornings. Doesn't leave me time to try fix my hair though, so I think I'll stop trying this braid thing, haha.

BagBalenciaga Coquelicot Velo (2011 RH)


Very relaxed outfit for casual Friday today! Under the hoodie I'm wearing a team polo shirt that we were each presented with at the lunch on Thursday. It has a large logo on it that I can't really share on the blog. As it's cold in the mornings I usually cover up with a jacket, so this hoodie was a nice casual, comfortable alternative that had the added bonus of covering up the shirt nicely until I got to the office.

The Balenciaga velo seemed like the perfect bag choice, and had the added bonus of covering up the logo of my shirt on instagram! One of my favourite things about Balenciaga moto bags is how versatile they are - I wear them with dresses and heels or dressed down with jeans, they just work in any situation. :)

Took a little video of my bag using Vine now it's on android, for something a bit different. I'm AwayFromBlue on vine, feel free to add me. Thanks to Kim at A Very Sweet Blog for helping me with it!


Last worn: skinny jeans, studded mouse flats, Balenciaga velo. First time I've worn the jumper on the blog, and first time I've worn the polo shirt as it was a recent gift.

It was much too cold outside for thongs! Should have worn boots or closed in shoes instead. It's suddenly got so much colder. Just a nice casual outfit to relax in after working Saturday. Luckily I wasn't asked to work Sunday as well, so I could still help out at church online.

Thank you for your good wishes over the weekend on my last post, the work went well. We celebrated in the office this morning, with balloons everywhere! So we had a little silly fun with them at lunch time.

Decided on tights, boots, long sleeved top and a jacket today as it was so cold! Lots of black but I thought the stripes and jacquard print kept it interesting. So pleased I got to wear my new skirt today too, will be a great winter piece! Unfortunately they don't have it on the Jeanswest website, but it is in some stores.

Interesting day today! Spent the day relaxing before heading into the office. Scheduled this post as I'm going into the office to work this evening. We get to wear casual clothes, so my awesome Church Online tee gets an outing. One of the many perks for volunteering at Church Online, they keep my tee collection growing :) Took a different detail shot today to show off the back.

The project I've been working on for over a year is going live this weekend, and that's why we are working. I'm extremely excited, so working on a Saturday night doesn't seem so bad. My favourite team members will be there in the office too. Wish us luck! :)

Here's what I wore to work on Wednesday:


Cardi: JeansWest zig zag knit long sleeve cardigan
Dress: Glassons black cotton skater dress (New Purchase)
ShoesWittner 'Bloomy' black heels
Bracelets: the usual
BagSarah Conners python bag in ebony


Received this dress on Tuesday, which is great considering I ordered it on Sunday! I've been doing little bits of wardrobe organisation here and there, and it's highlighted how few good basic items I have, so I placed a Glassons order as they had a good sale on basics. I got this dress and a couple of tops. Pleased how quick delivery was.
Probably should have worn a shorter cardi with this though to show the flare of the skirt better, I just thought the print would like nice against the black dress.

Jeans: Jeanswest 'spoylt' super skinny jeans

Bracelets: the usual plus gifted Balenciaga classic pearly grey double tour bracelet
Bag: Mimco Cocoon bag in metallic silver lambskin


We got up at 3.30 am to attend the dawn service, so I wore comfortable clothes. I also swapped my thongs for converse, and added a hoodie and scarf. The service was very moving, even the priest was tearing up as he told a war story. Lots to be thankful for. It warmed up to a lovely sunny day, so changed out of the layers and warm footwear as we took Cooper out for a walk. The sunglasses were needed as it was bright, but also appreciated having them to hide my tired eyes!

Was trying to decided what to wear when I realised it had been a very long time since I wore this top! Over a year. Had a big meeting despite it being casual Friday, so I wore a blazer over this and I thought the black and grey worked well to look more professional. Added pink sandals and a fun bag too though, it was Friday after all!
