With the rainy spring weather lasting longer than I’d like, I’ve started looking at ankle boots again – because on a rainy day those strappy sandals just won’t cut it!
I love lace up boots because I find them the most comfortable. If you’re ordering online and aren’t sure if the boots will fit your ankles, look for stretch panels or laces as they have some more give. View Post
Just when you’re lying in the warm sun thinking that summer is just around the corner, BAM! It starts raining and the cold wind starts blowing, reminding you that it is still very much spring. When I was out for my walk this morning, I found myself thinking about how necessary it is to have a good coat at this time of year! Here are a few of my fave finds at the moment…
Racing season is upon us, and if you’re planning on attending any of the events over the next six months then you will need to be well dressed! A certain standard of dress is expected (you can read the dress code for Ellerslie here), and if you’ve never been before then it can be quite daunting trying to figure out what to wear to the races – but never fear, I’ve found some great frocks that will have you race ready in no time…
A few months ago I was contacted by a reporter to talk about the popularity of the fatkini (that’s bikinis for plus size babes, y’all). I declined for a number of reasons, one of them being that the media outlet interviewing me has a history of body shaming and I would much rather use my body positive blog to talk about why I love wearing a bikini! I love swimsuits of all different cuts, but two piece bathing suits have to be my favourite – you can mix and match patterns and choose different sizes depending on your body shape. Bikinis always make me feel brave and powerful, because for so many years I shied away from them. But no more! There are loads of different shapes, styles and prints to help you look and feel fabulous.
Hemlines have dropped this spring, with midi lengths becoming increasingly popular. Sitting just below the knee, the midi skirt (or dress) is a little more demure, a lot more grown up, and gives a nod to the styles of the 1970’s. You’ve seen me wearing midi skirts a lot on this blog, like this black one, this pink one and this printed skirt – and now here are some of my favourite midi skirts for spring.
