Red Bow Cardi

You know how sometimes there are some items which you love as soon as you wear it in the fitting rooms at the shops? In fact your budget is so limited at that moment so you put it on lay-by (lay-away) even though you hate the idea of something you want so much sitting on the shelf, waiting for you to complete payments....

Oh God! That is exactly what I did almost two months ago. Then I finally picked up the cardi which I fell in love with, but it has been hanging in my closet, untouched for about three weeks! I just cant seem to like it on anything. I still love it on its own, but not with the combinations I form.

I am wondering, is it because I have lost a little more weight during the lay-by period that it does not sit as good as it did when I tried it two months ago??? Probably! Or probably I put it on layby knowing that I can't buy anything, so a layby will help me get some retail therapy? I have no idea!

So I threw it on today. Not quite how I imagined it, but oh well, saved the day! Next, I will try it with a skirt.

What do you think? Any suggestions?

Oh, and I think I'm due for a new pair of jeans!

Black & Beige on the Weekend

I need a beige jacket or even a cardigan. Why? Well, because if I had one, I would have worn that today instead of my black one! Check out the photos and you will know why... it would have looked better! :)))

Yes, it was a tad windy...

No, not picking my nose. My top lip was a little itchy. :)  

Don't you just LOVE my skirt?!!!

It's my new favourite. Rush to Katies girls, or even go on their website and buy online! I do think the price could have been cheaper as it's quality is not the BEST. But the length, the cut, the print, it's all perfect! I purchased mine from Epping (you Melbournians know where that is!), and they had sold out - I needed a size smaller and the belt is what is keeping it up. Oh, and this skirt comes with its own black belt. I just swapped it for my beige one today as I didn't want too much black.

See why I need the beige cardi/jacket? :) I cannot wear a plain beige hijab, because it totally washes me out. Looks awful on me. So I must wear a black one. Hmmm and what happens when I wear a black jacket/cardi? Too much black! So I tried to balance it out with the beige/gold accessories.

Who thinks I need a beige jacket/cardi? Put your hand up :))))

You can't go wrong with black and red

Who says you can? Put your hand up and I wilk boink you out. :))) Joking of course.

I wasn't planning to go out today at all, but mummy dearest called so I couldn't resist. I can never resist my mum. :)))

I had nothing ready, so I just saw all black things ready in my closet... I thought a red and black scarf would do just fine for a non-ready day. :)

And here we have it...

Oh and the bag isn't mine. I just saw it in the cupboard and thought it would be good for the photo hehe. It needs to be photographed and put up for sale LOL. Well, it matches. So yeah, a matchy matchy outfit.

This was also an opportunity for me to try out the knot belt trend I have been wanting to try out for a while... I did not have anything that was long enough to try the look before, but wooohoo, I guess now I do! :)) So do you like this knot belt trend? Have you tried it? And why doesn't anybody send photos for me to share? :)))))
