OOTD - Pretty Pink Shoes

Oh how I love my shoes!!! Obviously I have some shoes I want to show off. If I am going to be honest, I have never been one to wear heels and that includes wedges, although I have always loved the look of them, I was never comfortable in them. I think it was more of an excuse now, I was blaming my weight on not being able to even wear wedges. BUT hey, hey, hey it turns out I am an ultimate wedge wearer and now owner hehe.

If you have been keeping tuned to my blog, you will have noticed that I have a little collection of wedges now and that is definitely a recent collection, pretty much in the last 6 months anyway.

I bought this pair of shoes at the end of last year for my end of the year xmas party, but I didn't end up wearing them as we ended up going with a theme. I had put them away in a shoe bag and thought I had lost them and I couldn't remember where I put that shoe bag. I was totally devastated.

Last week, I found them they had been sitting in the boot of my car and I was so relieved to see that bag and because they are so comfy I decided to wear them to work today.

Aren't these shoes just gorgeous. I love them!! So that was my outfit for the day, I think there is some repeat offenders in this outfit, but hey REAL PEOPLE do the same!

OOTD – Dark – Aussie Curves Catch-ups

This is probably as ‘DARK’ as it will get for me, other then when I attend a Tangi (funeral) which is the only time I really wear Dark Clothing. Don’t get me wrong I do have my fair share of Dark Clothing, but I always have a splash of Colour somewhere.

As we are having beautiful weather here in Auckland City, I didn’t want to get to Dark, so even though it’s dark I am still rocking a little bit of colour.

This dress I have just snatched up recently from City Chic, this outfit is a bit of a ‘Breaking the rules’ outfit for me, well ‘Breaking MY OWN rules outfit’ I have never really liked the look of ‘Handkerchief Hems’ on dresses or skirts, but as it was on SALE, I decided to try it on. Well didn’t I get a surprise! I must admit I love the way it looks on me and I love wearing it, but I can’t say it is one of my favourites. I have been given a lot of compliments about this outfit, so it makes me feel good too hehe.

How terrible, this dress has everything going for it and it’s still not one of my favourites, one day maybe! I have to apologise for the terrible full body shots, the light outside was a bit too much and then the breeze was too strong, so these were the best I could do for today.

I must admit I am loving my shoes!! 

The necklace is what we call a 'Hei Tiki' the pendant being a 'tiki' and the 'hei' being the action word of tying aroung the neck. Gorgeous colour isn't it, this was a Valentines day present from my husband, bought at the Okahu Bay, Waitangi Day Celebrations 2008.

Overall I must admit this outfit is very comfortable to wear, nice and cool for the Summer, the Wedges so light and easy to walk in. I usually rock this without a bolero, but as I don't have a black bra on today, I haven't given you all a look at the detail on the back of the dress.

Aussie Curves - The Color Purple

Hi all,
This is my first Aussie Curves post and I just wanted to say it is truly because of all you fabulous ladies (participants) that I have got the confidence to start this Blog. I'm not sure if I was suppose to register properly somewhere, please do let me know if I need too. Thank you all so much again, you's truly inspire me to take my love of fashion to the next level. So here goes!

The Color Purple loved the movie, but the colour is not something I have a lot of in my wardrobe. So I had to settle with a colour that I would call purple, but it has a pinky tone to it as well.

My husband took me out to dinner last weekend and so I thought I would kill two birds with one stone. My husband took the photos and I must admit that it really was a barrel of laughs for both of us, I am not use to taking photos, I usually shy away from a camera, so posing for these photos was I must admit difficult. But we managed to get some shots that I think are fine.

I loved the colour combination. Purple and Teal/Aqua.

I then thought I would play around with some of the APPS available on my Ipad and that was a lot of fun too.
