floral pencil skirt from rosewholesale

Skirt: Rose Wholesale. Singlet: Supre. Sunglasses: Rubi. Shoes: Kmart.

I absolutely love high-waist skirts and shorts, they’re perfect casually or dressed up and to hide my little post lunch tummy bump. When Rose Wholesales approached me to do a clothing review I was thrilled to say the least. After looking through their massive range online I decided on this skirt and a bodycon dress which ended up being too small for me. Postage took around a month to arrive and when I opened my skirt there were a few stray threads I had to cut off. 

This skirt is so versatile and always shows off the minimum curves I have (it looks like I have a booty!). So underneath a baggy white button up, with this basic Supré singlet or even under printed t-shirts it is always flattering and a bit sexy. I have trouble choosing high waisted clothing as I am always a size 8AU however my waist is a size 6AU so I went for a small and it fits so well, although I think I will put a bit of elastic in the top to bring it in. It did have a bit of colour run when I washed it the first time however I take no special steps in washing my clothes and this could be why.

Overall I absolutely love this skirt and it has started my new love affair for pencil skirts.

Also, I finally had my hair done at a salon after months of growing out my bleach blonde. I had regrowth down to my ears and noticed that it looks absolutely awful after seeing a few pictures of myself from the previous weekend (example: last picture at bottom of post). I had a slight balayage done so I can continue trying to grow out my hair.

It was my twenty first birthday on the thirteenth of February and in the spirit of Valentine’s and an adorable breakfast date with my boyfriend, I wore this lovely mulled wine colored, heart shaped cut out, skater dress by Paper Heart. I absolutely love this style of dress and saw them everywhere a while ago however this one is somewhat disappointing. The zip is quite stiff making the back of the dress slightly out of shape and the top is sort of out of ratio with the skirt. It is still very wearable though and it was another bargain I found on EBay. 

On the weekend after my birthday my friend’s and I got a rooftop apartment in a building that has a nightclub at the bottom. The view was absolutely spectacular and the location was lovely. We went to dinner at a local Mexican restaurant where we had a few cocktails to start the night. Overall I was just happy to spend time away from work and with some close friends.

Dress: Paper Scissors. Shoes: Naughty Monkey. Sunglasses: Rubi. 

I recently remembered you can buy perfectly good new or used dresses from EBay and that is exactly where I found this little beauty. The pictures weren’t too great and I was a bit iffy but the bid was really low so I decided to go for it. I scored it for $25.00 including postage and when it arrived I was absolutely amazed at how perfectly it fit, the quality and the condition it was in. 

The brand is Paper Scissors a little Australian dress company that usually supplies boutiques. It is a perfect skater style with fit bust and flared skirt from the waist. Gorgeous cut outs at the back and padding around the bust so you don’t have to wear a bra! 

Oh and these boots! My boyfriend and I were window shopping because we’re a little strapped for cash when we walked into London Rebel, I saw these and tried them on knowing perfectly well I could not afford them. I have been looking for boots like these for months and standing in the full-length mirror I fell in love and almost cried because I knew I couldn't have them. However, my wonderful boyfriend, without saying a word, scooped up the box, took it straight to the counter and bought them for me, he could see the want in my eyes.

caged bikini by asos

Bikini Top: Asos. Bikini Bottoms: Asos. Sunglasses: Rubi.

I feel a little tacky posting pictures of myself half naked but I love this bikini so here we go anyway. I have always known Asos sold bikinis but never really looked at them because I rarely go swimming and bikinis are an item I feel like I need to try on before I buy. After a friend recommended them and I found these beauties online, I needed to buy them. This pair fit absolutely perfectly and I could not be happier, I find them flattering and the caged style is different yet everyone has said they’re gorgeous. 

However, I did buy another pair and sized up in the bottoms because they didn’t have my size, the bottoms fit perfectly but my normal size top was too small but being Asos they have a super easy return policy and I will be sending the top back and getting a size up. 

I have always had a love hate relationship with my body and was so nervous to take these pictures but I am happy with the way they came out and they gave me a little confidence boost too! This summer I have been making an effort to get down to the beach and have little tanning sessions. Before I met my current boyfriend I was an inside person and wasted a lot of time on my computer. Now I feel like I am wasting time when I spend beautiful days inside. This year my boyfriend and I are saving to take our first trip overseas together and I could not be more excited!
