I am LOVING this ,slightly cooler, Autumn weather.
Being someone who isn't that fond of showing off too much skin, the nippier weather really agrees with my wardrobe choices. I'm really enjoying adding an extra layer and am looking forward to wrapping up even further. I love to wear my Summer skirts and light dresses layered with merino tops and thick opaque tights and boots in Winter . There's something that just feels so much more feminine about having everything covered up.
You know what else I'm loving clotheswise at the moment?
- Wearing skirts up on my waist, with my tops tucked in. I've never been brave enough to try this one out before, but I'm really enjoying it.
- Belts over cardis. I guess I've worried that bringing things in at my waist would make my two-babies-blobby-tummy stand out more but I think it's worth the risk.
- Not doing my hair everyday. There's something kind of cute about messy hair every now and then.
- The idea of hooded dresses over tights. I wonder if I could whip one up. I saw a great one on a young girl in the weekend, 'twas stripy and just above the knee. Not super dooper flattering but looked very styley and very comfy too!
I am loving your very funky skirts and brooches! Am not loving that Autumn has made way for Summer here again. Can't wait for it to finally cool down. :)
ReplyDeletePS. I just added you as a friend on Ravelry. It didn't even occur to me until now! Duh. :)
ReplyDeleteI know I've said it before, but I love your style. very cool!
ReplyDeleteYou truly do have the BEST sense of style! Lovely to see your beautiful self this morning xx
ReplyDeletelove love LOVE your style!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! man i really need to get otu and opshop more huh?
ReplyDeleteYou look very cute. Really love that skirt in the top pic. And cardis are just the best. I agree with the skirts round your waist and tucked in top too, I've been a bit nervous about it. But if you get it right it seems to make your waist look smaller and skim over the hips (and my muffin) xx
ReplyDeleteI love the colours of the skirt in the top photo. I'm with you, I love to cover up a bit more and I'm looking forward to the weather cooling down even more, roll out the scarves and hats.
ReplyDeleteoh yeah, I love cardis, I must own about a million. And yes the high on the waist thing totally seems to cover my not-shifting-post-baby-belly.
ReplyDeleteYou really have the sweetest style :)
ReplyDeleteThat last photo is adorable. What a hooty!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you commented on my blog- always nice to "meet" someone new. And it seems we have a similar sense of style (though you pull it off better than I do!), and yours is a fun blog to read.
