Daily Outfits

First up is my roller derby outfit! New Zealand had its first intercity bout on Saturday and it was with our 2 most rival cities – Auckland and Wellington. The extra few years practice Auckland has on us were very evident as they whooped our ass 174 to 88! Not once did the crowd become discouraged though, we screamed our lungs out in support till the very end. It was SO great.

Welly’s colours are orange and purple so I wore every piece of orange clothing I own – a tie that came free with a shirt, a corduroy skirt from when I was at high school, and socks. I made my bow at Jo’s fascinator/banner making session the day before, it’s stuffed with paper, that’s how I roll.

I totally guessed how to tie my tie and got it right first time! Stoked.

My usual staples – a tee, skirt, sneakers. But this time it’s minus the leggings! Behold the glorious whiteness of my legs.
The grin is courtesy of free rum cocktails.
If you look closely you should be able to see that my t shirt features a punk version of Bambi. She’s very cool.

    Rawr! You’re too cute.
    And you’re using your bag, yay! I think I’ve only seen it before you got it.

    Yay for ties, when we lived in apt a few years back, S’s neighbour would sometimes knock on my door and have me or S tie them for him. Wonder how he did after we moved….

    Sigh. I liked that version of Lily Allen much more than the current Chanel spokeperson version of Lily Allen.

    O no, sorry if I gave the impression I’m an actual derby girl! I am far too unfit, lazy, and weak to be a derby girl!! I am just an avid supporter, a semi-pro jeerleader if you will (I didn’t some up with that word btw, but i think it describes us derby fanatics quite well.)

    Tut, tut. You did you very cute even though you were supporting the other team. I wish we had the red and black colours, would’ve made dressing up a shit load easier!

    Awwwww! You is so cute! I actually had a dream recently that I was going to roller derby, but i was freaking out because I had nothing cool to wear. Exciting huh?!
    Ooh, me loves the Misery pics in the background!
    And i can see the bag candy looks right at home on that sweet handbag :)
    I’ve worn the lovely deer brooch a few times, but I need to take a good photo so I can do a post on it to show it off!
