The concept of celebrity is a really strange one to me, and often when people talk about celebrities I don’t know who they are (fun fact: I only found out who Beyoncé was a couple of years ago when people were talking about her in my office). When the theme of “celebrity style” came up for the NZ Style Curvettes outfit challenge I was a bit stuck, so I decided to steal the style of one of my fellow blogger babes. View Post
When 17 Sundays released their grid print dress and matching tee, I shared them on my Facebook page and y’all went bananas over them! Then I did a giveaway of them both and woah. Everyone was so excited! Except one person – she was determined that this dress was a sack and probably the worst thing to happen to plus size fashion ever because it was loose fitting rather than curve hugging. Well guess what? I don’t agree (and neither do the 300+ people who entered to win one). View Post
One of the things I’ve learned as someone who wears a lot of black on black is that texture is important – it makes an all black outfit look much more interesting. Lately I’ve been getting in to sheer fabrics and I feel like it’s making a big difference to my outfit game. View Post
I’m very much an autumn person. I love the autumn weather, when it’s warm but not too hot, and days are still long; when leaves start to turn red and fall from trees (do you know how satisfying it is to stomp through crunchy autumn leaves?). I love the colours of autumn, both the colours in nature and in fashion. Blacks, greys, deep reds, mustards, burnt oranges, navy blues … that is my kind of colour palette (no matter what time of year it is). View Post
I’m lucky in that my current job doesn’t have a dress code. When it comes to workwear, most of the time if I’m working from home I’m wearing pyjama pants or leggings because if I’m not comfortable I find it hard to concentrate on writing. If I’m heading out to meet with someone or to an event I’ll dress up, it’s always fun picking an outfit now that I don’t have to wear a uniform or comply with an office dress code. View Post
