Aussie Curves: Nature

Nature..... hmmmmmm. Would I say I'm a naturey person? Probably not.  Well I like the beach. And I like the forest. And I love the wild view from my balcony. So maybe I am??? Anyway, I interpreted this theme as flowers and brights, because they make me happy! Like the beach! ;)

Top: Lily and Lou via Best and Less

Skirt: Dream Diva

Body necklace: Diva

Shoes: swapped

Melissa and Kel popped around for lunch last weekend and Suger was kind enough to take these piccys for me! We also spent quite a bit if time playing in my room-robe with Suger helping me plan my outfit! I love dressing up and playing with clothes. Even better with equally as stylish and fabulous plus-size bloggy friends! 

I adore the colours on this Dream Diva skirt. Its a purple, pink and turquoise explosion!! I don't give it as much love as it deserves, I really must find more tops to go with it. This Lily and Lou tank was actually not what I had initially intended to pair with it, but it went perfectly! Plus I think I need to be injecting some more colour into my outfits!

I'm totally obsessed with body chains at the moment, This beauty I picked up for $6 in the Diva sales! Bargain!! I've been wearing it with everything! They take statement necklace to a whole new level, its subtle- but everywhere!!! 

How would you wear this skirt???

Aussie Curves: Swimwear

This Aussie Curves post is perfect timing for the week we just spent on the beach at Hamilton Island! I've pretty much lived in my togs for the whole trip so these piccys were snapped on a not so special mid-week morning in paradise!

Swimmers: Lily and Lou via Best and less

Board Shorts and Coverup: Torrid

What I love about these photos is that they are completely natural. No makeup, no hair styling, not even any shoes- just au naturel, on the beach, ready for a day in the water!

These togs are so comfy and cute that I picked them in this classic one piece and in a funky fluro green tankini. Apart from being a little crazy for polka dots, I also love the retro feel of the cut and the way they draw attention to my hips.

I still can't leave the house without a pair of board shorts. I guess I kind of feel a little too naked without them. Anyway, I shopped around for ages to find a mini cut pair as most of the available plus-size shorts are that horrible mid thigh length. Not surprisingly, Torrid delivered with this perfect pair AND this awesomely girly and classic coverup! Perfect beach chic!

How do you feel about swimwear?

Do you wear board shorts over your swimwear??

Rocking my fedora

I totally fell in love with this cream fedora while window shopping the other day, and snapped it up for a bargain $11.95!

 Fedora: Best and Less, Shirt: City Chic

Interestingly enough, I thought this hat would be awesome for Spring shenanigans and Shay from A Thick Girl's Closet, had just added a really similar one to her Autumn wishlist on the other side of the world! Goes to show a truly classic piece like this cream and brown trilby, rocks no matter what time of year it is! :)
