Aussie Curves - Everyday Style

If you know me then you will know that I'm a pretty casual kinda gal.  I go out to movies, date nights at local restaurants and go shopping.  When I'm not out and about I'm at home playing video games and watching movies, but wherever I am, I like to dress comfortably. 

I'm probably not the only one who thinks 17 Sundays when I want comfortable clothes and I'm probably preaching to the already converted, those who are already converted, just keep reading anyway. 

This dress is the best piece that I own, I love it so much I considered buying another but sadly it's sold out in my size. It's the first thing I turn to when I want to go out somewhere these days that I have to do the washing more often just so I can wear it more than once a week. 





I'm not the only one that loves my dress either. On the way home Daniel said that this was his favourite dress for me too. It reminds him of a modern interpretation of the dresses Elizabeth from Bioshock Infinite wears. The colours are what mostly remind him of her outfits, the gorgeous blues and whites and the full skirts. 



I love Elizabeth, she has such a kind soul, is completely gorgeous and probably the first AI (artificial intelligence) that is actually helpful and not in need of protection while playing the game. Naturally I was elated when he made the connection because this is my absolute FAVOURITE game. It kinda makes me want to get a full cosplay costume for the EB Games Expo in Sydney this October, but I have left the preparations way too late. Maybe I'll just wear this dress instead. The longer I think about it, the more I want to get this choker to wear with the dress too.

Aussie Curves - Denim

I love all of my jeans, they are such a great piece of clothing to dress up or down. I knew exactly what pair I wanted to show off for this weeks challenge.  You see I have been hunting for a decent pair of boyfriend jeans for years now. Suger tried to help, she even took hers off and let me try them on to see if I liked her Torrid pair (that I'm pretty sure are the same ones she is wearing for this weeks challenge). She is one of the best gals I know, I mean come on, there aren't many people out there who dack themselves just for their friends, AM I RIGHT!  A couple of weeks later I found my own pair and for a complete steal. 

Much thanks to Suger again because I paired the jeans with my Star Wars tee and the floral jacket that she borrowed off of me and has been flouncing around in for months to teach me how to wear it. Thanks lady, I owe you big time! 

I thought the new round of Aussie Curves themes might give me some decent excuses to wear my clothes a bit more often and show you lovely people how I work my style now that I think I've found it.
