You may have seen my plea for help on twitter on Saturday night. Big thanks to those who replied!
My Saturday night consisted of a friends birthday cocktail party where semi formal dress was requested. We knew it’d be more semi than formal so didn’t want to be too flash. And afterwards we had an album release party to go to at a bar. I ended up pulling out an outfit I bought for a work do last year, I love wearing a poofy skirt anytime and this one always gets compliments.

Beads – Some cheap jewellery store (Diva, Bling, Equip?)
Ring – Cupcakes and Mace
Blouse – Jay Jays
Jacket – Portmans
Silk skirt – Portmans
Leggings – Valley Girl
Sneakers – Converse

Ooo two outfit posts in one week. You are spoiled!

This is what I wore to have yum cha that never happened. The disorganised birthday girl forgot to book! We ended up finding a cafe for eggs, toast, and other associated foods.

Glasses – Burberry
Fuck necklace – Cupcakes and Mace
T shirt – Misery
Trousers – Supre
Sneakers – Converse
Bag – Loungefly

My recent decision to work some more coloured pencil skirts into my wardrobe was sparked by wearing this outfit out on Saturday. I felt really good in it!

Glasses – Genesis
Ghost necklace – Cupcakes and Mace
Greenpiece t shirt – Dr Moose
Skirt – Pagani
Bag – Loungefly
Sneakers – Osiris

You may not be able to beat Wellington on a good day but when you walk home in the hot sun wearing a black dress, thick tights, socks, sneakers, and a back pack it makes you feel like walking into the sea!

One of the “new me” outfits I purchased this weekend just gone.  The shopping trip was great, we spent from about 12.30pm till 5.30 pm at the mall in Lower Hutt scouring the chain stores and managed to score some good sale items.

I am particularly in love with my new check dress from Portmans. I’ve had my eye on it for a while so when I saw that it was $50 off I was stoked. It’s sleeveless and has a huge skirt that is able to be held up to my sides making a semi circle. It’s polyester and reminds me of raincoat material so it holds shapes really well and swooshes when I walk. It’s awesome. But you’ll have to wait for another day to see it.

There is still a lot more shopping to be done, I hope that the city, and in particular Cuba St, will hold some cute stuff. I see a lot more skirts in my future.

What I’m wearing

• Crazy eyes – Courtesy of my mother
• Knobbly knees – Courtesy of my mother

  I plan on changing the buttons on this dress to something more eye catching. Don’t count on it happening anytime soon though.
• Pink belt – Supre
• Black knee high socks with lace detail – Farmers
• Sneakers – Babycham

As always you can click on the photos to see just how much the wind storm messed my hair.
