So I haven’t updated it almost a week! No excuse! No notification! I am sorry to those of you who check in each and every day and I’ve heard from some of you asking where I am. Well I’m here, I just needed a little break.
This dress is a recent addition to my wardrobe that’s been getting a lot of wear of late. It was second hand so didn’t cost me very much(maybe like $7?) but almost every time I wear it someone comments. Generally it’s on the colour but it’s also kind of satisfying to know that of all the clothes I wear people like my $7 dress. You must have pieces like that in your wardrobes I’m sure.
My money goes into accessories which I’ve talked about plenty of times before here on the blog, with the occasional investment piece thrown in. Even when I want to update my wardrobe, follow a trend or buy a new item, I search vintage and second hand shops and online first, then I go shopping for new clothes. A little bit strange?! I just like to have my own version that no one else has. Well that’s my story and I’m sticking to it. 😉

pretty blue dress…
I think I have that exact same dress which I got at a market a couple of years back! So strange! It’s looks so much better on you though and I’m loving the look of your necklace 🙂
You haven’t mentioned your accident that prevented you from being at fashion week… Hope all is ok
Absolutely love your flats. The tassel detail is perfect.

I love that I see you wear the same items (accessories/clothes/shoes) over and over. They always look fantastic and it makes me feel pretty good about re-wearing my own stuff too!
Your blog offers one thing magazines don’t – a true working wardrobe. That’s something everyone should have!
same here! i splurge more on accessories! :p
btw, pretty blue dress there (:

Apt that you mention the accessories… did you know about this fundraising auction? Designer jewellery – and you get to donate to a worthy cause. As you are well aware, my accessories usually range from about 10c to $5, but I’m prepared to pay more to support disaster victims.

i am in love with your dress
Everybody needs a break sometimes, glad to see you back here 🙂
Very nice dress, I like how the sleeves are cut, and the colour looks great on you!
Wow I have a dress almost exactly the same as that, though mine was $25 rather than $7. I tip my hat to you and your $7.
Yay you’re back! That colour looks fabulous on you! Very well put together as always! Have missed your blogs, hope you enjoyed your break 🙂 xx
The colour really does suit you! I hope your accident wasnt too bad ?
