    Aussie Curves – Celebrity Copycat

    I was having trouble with this weeks theme. Celebrity Copycat. I don’t know, there are a few celebrities I find inspiring, but no one that I think I could do justice trying to copy. So, I sat down in front of what’s left of my wardrobe & tried to piece together something that would remind me of a celebrity. Probably a very backwards process. At first I was thinking Lady Gaga, that was until my eyes landed on my petticoat. That’s when it hit, I could totally pull together a Cyndi Lauper copycat outfit together! I’m a big fan of 80’s music, and as you can see from the photos,…

    OOTD – Five bad boys and peplums!

    I had planned to write up a different post for today, but I currently have food poisoning. Instead, you get this OOTD from last week, that I had planned to post later this week. Guh, does that sentance even make sense? I’m going back to bed. No, your eyes are NOT deceiving you, I am in fact wearing a Five shirt, peplum skirt and glitter shoes. I mean, why not!? This is one of my crazier outfits for sure, but i’m kind of in love with it. That may also have something to do with the fact that I LOVE Five, and have for *cough* 15 years. TOP – A Five Concert in Sydney, I…

    OOTD: Bird print peplum

    Peplum is a trend that I’ve been loving, yet hadn’t taken the plunge until recently. In theory, I thought it would suit the way I like to dress. I like to accentuate & cinch in my waist and then have a skirt flare out. It gives the illusion I have more curves then I do, i’m rather straight up and down. I finally caved and bought a top I’d been lusting after at Dorothy Perkins for ages. Yay for sales! Oh, and yes, it is ANOTHER animal print. Well, I am in LOVE. It’s amazing! Dotty P goes up to a size 22, and i’m wearing the 22. This skirt…

    OOTD – Pink & Neon Orange

    I know i’ve said this before, but if you’d have told me 5 years ago, that I would be wearing pink and orange, without any black, I would have laughed at you and called you crazy. One thing that self accaptance and blogging has helped me do, is to not ‘dress for my size’ or to make myself look slimmer. Sure, I always like to look my best, but I’m fat, wearing black may create the illusion of looking slimmer, but I’m still going to be fat, so I am going to dress in what I want too, in what colour I choose. While there is still so many fashions,…

    Teja Jamilla Tights – Sizing Info

    I don’t remember how I originally stumbled across Teja Jamillas hand printed tights, I just remember being surprised that they went up to a size that would fit me. I ordered them straight away, not knowing what size would fit better, tights can be tricky, I ordered 2 different sizes. When they arrived, I had fractured my foot  couldn’t wear them with my boot, but I busted them out for MBFWA (HERE) and they went down a treat. PLEASE NOTE: Apart from the 3rd photo down (with the site text on it) these photos have only been re-sized and sharpened. I have not edited them in away, not even to colour correct…
