Blogger interview, Cooper and Mica want Oscar's Law!

I am so excited to see this post on The Fashionoclast today! Frederik, one of the writers at the Fashionoclast asked if I would like to be interviewed and of course I said yes. The thing I like best about it is how eloquent his introduction is compared to my responses ;)

So go ahead and check out my first ever blog interview here at The Fashionoclast!


Relaxing day today spending time with my family and a trip to the park. Cooper got some exercise while we fed the ducks and strolled around. My sister and I couldn't resist playing on the swings for a bit before we left!


Here's what I wore:
Singlet: Oscar's Law pink ladies singlet (via  http://www.oscarslaw.org/)
Necklace: gift from DH
Bracelets: the usual
Shorts: Jeanswest denim shorts
Shoes: Balenciaga sorbet 2010 RGGH studded sandals
Bag: Balenciaga 2008 Sapphire RH city

I wore my pink Oscar's Law singlet as Cooper and I want Oscar's Law!

In Australia puppy farms (puppy mills or puppy factories) are legally allowed to exist and provide pet stores with puppies to sell, while over 200,000 animals are put down in shelters every year. (Source)
I dream of one day being able to proudly say that I come from a country where puppy farms are outlawed and the only animals in pet stores are shelter animals waiting to be adopted.

That's why I support Oscar's Law. (Plus Cooper looks so cute in his bandanna!)

Wrap Dress and a little bit orange

After feeling so blah yesterday, I wore some old favourites today. I really like each item in this outfit, and you can't go wrong with a classic wrap dress.

Unfortunately I got home from work late tonight and had to take an indoor pic, and it doesn't really capture the black well. I tried to improve the photo colours so you could see the detail but now I look really orange..haha. Sorry! Trust me, I'm still really pale. No orange fake tan here!

Here's what I wore:
Dress: Diane Von Furstenberg (from linda*s***stuff on ebay)
Singlet underneath: Supre snake print singlet
Necklace: gift from DH
Bracelets: the usual
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs patent mouse flats
Bag: Balenciaga 2008 Sapphire RH city


Closeup of accessories (and my natural skin tone!):

Hope you had a great day, and you got a bit of a giggle from the orange photo!

Star Print Top, Tribal Print Skirt, Diamond Tights

Thought I would give pattern mixing a try today :) Just subtly with different prints on my top, skirt and tights.


Here's what I wore:
Cardi: Jeanswest grey knit cardi
Top: Cotton On Salta peasant top in black / gardenia star gazer print (New Purchase)
Necklace: Indigo Rose Design pearl and antique gold long necklace

Shoes: Rubi black ballet flats
Bag: Balenciaga 2008 Sapphire RH city (similar at Barneys)

Closeup of accessories:


Not sure if I should keep this skirt - I love it but every time I wear it I'm never quite pleased with the outfit. Here are some of the other ways I've worn this skirt pre-blog:

Today was a last wear before I decide what to do with it. I think I should let it go. What do you think? Keep or donate?

Hurtful comments

Crazy day today. Stress at work is really getting to everyone. To top if off, came home to an extremely rude comment on one of my youtube videos. Someone randomly decided to leave a horrible comment about Cooper.

I deleted the comment but it still made me sad.

DH has told me it's okay, people on the internet are just crazy and rude like that, but how could you be so mean to such a cute little doggy?



On a completely unrelated note, here's what I wore today:
Dress: French Connection Melanie sleeveless navy and white dress
Necklace: glass pearls and black ribbon, made by a talented friend
Bracelets: the usual plus some freshwater pearl ones made by the same friend.
Shoes: Nine West
Bag: Balenciaga 2008 Sapphire RH city


I covered up with a cropped Asos jacket in the office:

Also got some parcels today - a dress and a bracelet - I'll post about them later.

Rain, rain and a little more rain

Been watching the http://qldalert.com/ website all afternoon with the flooding and road closures. Keeping those who have already had their homes go under water today in my prayers, and hoping the rain relents soon.


This was what I wore today for a big meeting at work:


Dress: Valley Girl
Necklace: Gift from DH
Bracelets: the usual plus purple one made by a talented friend
Shoes: Cotton On black flats. Really need to get myself some rain boots! Needed sensible shoes today, but all my boots have heels.
Bag: Balenciaga 2008 Sapphire RH city

And I wore a cardi over the dress most of the day to keep warm:

And despite the rain Cooper popped out his doggy door now and then to check on the weather - he is one wet pup!


Don't forget to check me out over at the Fashionoclast - I was featured in their Frivolous Friday challenge again :) This time it was for my Bold Hat.

Hope wherever you are in the world you are warm and dry!

Wet Wednesday, Reebonz twitter Giveaway

Even more rain and road closures today. Thankfully it stopped raining in the afternoon and hasn't started again, hoping it continues to stay that way and we have a dry Australia day tomorrow.

Here's what I wore today:
 Dress: French Connection Kay dress
Necklace: freshwater pearls, made by a talented friend
Bracelets: the usual plus some freshwater pearl ones made by a friend.
Boots: NineWest Odin Black Leather ankle boots
Bag: Balenciaga 2008 Sapphire RH city


Closeup of accessories and houndstooth print on the dress:

The boots were a much better choice for the rain than my black flats yesterday, but my knee did get sore after wearing them all day. Need to ease into heels!


If you have twitter, @ReebonzAU and @Young_Republic are having a twitter giveaway once they hit 2,000 followers.


Hope you are all dry and warm and safe!

February already!

Can't believe it's the 1st of February already! Really wish January had welcomed in the new year in a much more pleasant manner, but there is still lots more of the year to go.


Here's what I wore today:
Dress: Jeanswest ruffle neckline animal print dress
Necklace: Chanel (via Reebonz)
Bracelets: the usual
Shoes: Big W thongs ($1!)
Bag: Balenciaga 2008 Sapphire RH city

Closeup of accessories and digital leopard print on the dress:

I did have work today so I swapped out the thongs for my Nine West black flats and wore a long black cardi too. I always have flats and a cardigan in my desk, they are really useful.

Glad it was Wednesday, only 2 days left of work before the weekend :)
