Aussie Curves: Blue

I knew just the dress I was going to wear when I read this weeks Aussie Curves theme was blue! This amazing ASOS dress has just been unpacked from storage and it was so much more than perfect!

Dress: ASOS Curve

Necklace: eQuip

Glitter Wedges: Torrid

Bag: Saved from the rubbish bin!

The dress has a really gorgeous circle crotchet-like over layer. The cut is super cute too and makes me feel ultra feminine.

The blue is so vibrant and eye-catching. Its such a royal blue that it matched perfectly with gold accessories. These amazing wedges I picked up for $4 on sale at Torrid- $4!!! How amazing is that!!

Whenever I think of a white t-shirt I see it as a complement piece not a statement piece. Although I really love that relaxed-faded-jeans-and-a-white-tee look, it's never been me. So I styled it the way I always do- as an finishing layer!

Tee and Skirt: City Chic

Belt: New Look Inspire (off a dress)

Jacket: Virtu

Necklace: Diva

I was late with Fatshion Faceoff this week (too many lights night sorting the new house). I had this post 70% ready to go already an then changed my mind after buying this totally amazing Virtu blazer! I had popped my nose into the shop today just to squiz over their sale stock; but all blazers were 25% off and I couldn't resist this wonder!

I love how the white tee sets off the whole look. Its so easy for an outfit to look dark and drag down the whole appeal. Just that little stripe of white makes a world of difference!

The most awesome bit of these photos? Afterwards, we had pancakes for dinner! Omnomnom! :-D

Pop on over and check out the other Fatshion Faceoff ladies in their white tees too!

OOTD: My favourite jeans

I really do think that no matter what your size or shape, the most important thing to buy is a perfect pair of jeans. I still remember my first 'perfect pair'. I was about fifteen and my sister found the ultimate pair from Just Jeans. I lived in those pants. Seriously. I still have them because honestly, when the fit is perfect- you can't get let them go!

So, over the last ten years (and definitely as my bum has become more *ahem* rounded) I've been on the hunt for my new elusive perfect pair. Some City Chic ones have come close, but none were perfect...... Until now.

While in New York, I was lucky enough to attend the Torrid trunk show A Torrid Affair. Hosted by Jessica Kane, the event was a true blogger morning full of laughter and fun! Nicole, Bec and I went together and I feel so honored to have shared this day with them and that I was able to meet a few of my favourite bloggers- Chastity from Garner Style and Kris from The Fun Between My Legs aka The Chubby Cruiser.

It was also so awesome hanging out with some of the Torrid team and of course- trying on their new jeans (and taking a home a pair!) from the Stilletto Denim range!

Now saying this was love at first try-on would be an understatement. It felt like these jeans were made for me!! They are soft without without being thin material and super stretchy but don't loose their shape when washed. Te thing I like best of all though?? The pockets are stitched slightly higher on the bum so you don't get that dreaded 'half-way-down-your-ass-pocket-pouch'. Winning!!! And I wans't the only one totally loving the new jeans!!
