Suiting Up

It’s no secret I lurve me a good lady suit. A blazer and a pair of pants does wonders for my figure and always makes me feel powerful. See what I did there…Powerful…like Power Suit. I swear in another life I would’ve been Hilary Clinton’s stylist. I feel my best when I’m wearing a pink powersuit that nips in at the waist and skirts over my chunky thighs. These days it’s easy for us ladies to buy a suit online that will flatter our figure, you’ve just got to know where to look. That’s where I come in. I’ve been…

Dress Rentals: My Experiences So Far…

I get a number of messages now and again from a few friends and followers about my recommendations for renting a dress. I’ve rented a number of dresses a number of times, and think it’s a great way to save money on a dress, as well as space in your wardrobe. So many times in the past I’ve bought a beautiful dress, worn it once, and then popped it in the back of my wardrobe to gather dust. I’ve also found that with social media there’s a lot more pressure to wear something different to every occasion and follow that…

What I Wore: Hyatt Hotel Canberra

I’ve had the privilege (and got so freaking excited that I danced around in my pi’s with my mum and my fat corgi kinda privilege) of being invited to a number of Hyatt Hotel Canberra events. This outfit featured shows a trench coat, that I, being the clever chicken that I am, wore as a dress. I had seen this trend for trench coats in magazines, but like many things in magazines I didn’t really think it would suit the love handles on my hips or my boobs are bigger than a size B cup. But, forever the optimist, I…

What I Wore: Lusso VIP Opening

Last week I had the pleasure of meeting up with my fellow bloggers for a sneak peak of the Lusso Luxury Boutique in Manuka,Canberra. Leather, Fur, Handbags and Boots all straight from the runways of Milan were on display as we nibbled on canapés and sipped on Moet (I don’t actually drink, but sometimes I like to pretend to #pretendadult). The Brumbies made a guest appearance, and proceeded to tell us which items of clothing they would like to see on a woman. As you can imagine, it was rather entertaining. I organised my outfit for the event the week…

What I Wore: January 2017

I’ve never been a big fan of crowds. I’ll choose a big book and a cup of tea over a crowded room any day. So it will come as no surprise that I avoided last year’s boxing day sales. Well at least, the actual store fronts. Online shopping, however, provided me with an easy solution to my lack of enthusiasm for crowded queues and pushy fellow shoppers. So there I sat with my big book, a cup of tea, and my lap top. Of course. And ever since I have been wearing my new pieces obtained from my online post…
