Todays outfit....


Today I was inspired to dress somewhat like a 40's pin up girl. I donned my button detail red high waisted shorts (made to my own pattern) and a cute little collared, pinup girl print, tie front top. ( I need to find a pattern for this one....it was a gift from Brookie, and I want more !!!) I found some darling red and white spotted wedges in Echuca this week, and I popped a red hibiscus in my hair for that holiday look. Ta da, transformation of dowdy Mum in pajamas to 'sexy mamma' (here's hoping !!) dispite my not-quite-ready-for-summer legs ! Let's just say the fake tan will be making an appearance tonight - milky white is lovely on the face, chicken meat white is just not acceptable on the legs....a hint of colour and a bit more tone required !!! For now it's off to enjoy the summer day with my little ones !

  4. Lovely!! <3 The shorts are so cute and I love the red flower in your hair that picks up the color of it:) How I wish I could pull on my summer clothes, we have lots of snow piling up outside at the moment and more coming down.. *sigh*

  5. Blushing - oh thanks everyone !!! XX ScaryMary, when we get a week of 47 degrees (116 F) heat like an oven, I may just come and enjoy that lovely snow with you !!! Guess there are good and bad points about both - how I adore spring and autumn !!! :o)

  8. Beautiful outfit, I like the way you repeat the red colour! :)

    I just found your blog, and I'm guessing you live down under since you're in summer clothes in January? I'm sending some very "weather-envious" thoughts from snowy Norway at the other side of globe ;)
