Okay, this is an awkward one.
I always LOVE it when my favourite bloggers do outfit posts. Reading about fashion and style is something I've always loved and seeing it here online in the blogging community makes it real and tangible. I've mentioned before that my wardrobe consists of cheap threads from glassons and that i'm no longer as slim as I once was. But that's okay, I'm real. So, at the risk of sounding self important I thought I'd give it a shot.
If this makes you cringe (hi mum and dad), don't worry- I'm cringing too.

scarf bought whilst holidaying in Arizona.

Thanks Jess and Ana for indulging me and taking my photo's (and for only laughing at me quietly or with your backs turned).

Over the next couple of posts i'll be filling in some of the blanks in this story (with the help of my beautiful mum- she and I have shared a tear or two together today).

Ps. I'm laughing at loud at what an outfit post of mine would look like...It's so funny what you can get about in at home when it's just you and the bebe.
I LOVE the cardigan...and the plait in the hair...always wanted to be able to do that with my hair. x
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous. The only thing missing is a little more confidence in yourself. Please keep posting your fashion. I am so interested.
ReplyDeleteI especially love your hair and your shoes.
P.S. I saw your pictures on a blog called Happy Families today. Did you know?
Dude, you know everyone is gonna love you! Duh!
ReplyDeleteSmexy lady.

Thanks for your super wonderful comment on my blog just then - it made me smile deeply inside.
And just yesterday, I took my first "outfit" photo for the first time in half a year! (Maybe we're in "blogging sync" or something completely irrational like that...)

ReplyDeleteand all the colours

you're adorable!
ReplyDeleteI'm laughing at the awkwardness. I could never do a post on my outfit. Love it!
ReplyDeleteYou're so pretty! Love your hair, mines short-short so I'm envious of that do and those shoes. Glad you felt awkward, just shows you're like... well a real person!
ReplyDeleteGreat post. Love your braid and the hearts above the fringe on your Arizona scarf. I think it's pretty normal to feel awkward doing outfit posts at first, but that goes away with time. Well done.
ReplyDeleteYou look GREAT and I lurve those shoes xx
ReplyDeletei think ... gorgeous!and brave ... and v stylish! you're onto a very good thing. Hx
ReplyDeleteI love the polka dot chambray shirt and the shoes especially. If you're still feeling brave tomorrow you might consider linking up with Wardrobe Wednesday over at sailorspy.co.nz - there are prizes and I would so love so have some Aussie style happening there.
ReplyDeleteYou look wonderful. honestly. hot. thank you for the 'real' posts ... no designer threads for me since we bought the house, and the dog ... oh, and started thinking about starting a family. butter you know what - i wouldn't change a thing. keep your wonderful posts a coming!
ReplyDeleteYou did great! I remember my first outfit post (not that I've done so many nor was it very long ago). I felt like the biggest tool despite the fact that I adored seeing everyone else's outfit posts and never thought them the least bit foolish. It gets easier :).
ReplyDeleteOh, you are so bloody beautiful Em. Look at your gorgeous hair in these pics. Loving your super cheap cardi too. I think you make a gorgeous model and I'd be stoked to see some more of your outfits hitting the blog whenever you're up for it.
ReplyDeleteI will wait to read the addendum to your About Me page. I still stand by my original comment on it, that it is one of the best About Me pages I've ever read.
xo
You're. simply. adorable.
ReplyDeleteI'm also diggin' those shoes.
Oh, that looks lovely. I'd like to make my daughter a scarf like that. You mentioned you bought it in Arizona - do you know what material it is?
ReplyDeleteI love to knit and usually only make wool scarves out of this material: http://www.alacraft.com.au/yarns-and-knitting-cat5 but would love to try something different. Please let me know.
Kind regards
Betty
Ohh please, you look fantastic!!!
ReplyDeleteStyle posts are always a little bit scary because everyone has their own opinion on style. I think you did great and you should do more! =)

ReplyDeletegorgeous girl. you should do more :P
ReplyDeleteYour link on those GREAT shoes just send me to a facebook page (which I liked). It's an Australian line? I can't seem to find anywhere to purchase them. I think there may also be a shoe buying club that goes by the same name. Can you clarify? Maybe offer hints at acquiring our own wear everyday flipping excellent shoes? Thanks! And kudos to you for posting outfits- I love it!
ReplyDeleteyes, it's an australian line. I've just contacted them re your inquiry- hit me back in a coupe of days and i'll get you some answers.
DeleteThey are GREAT shoes, i truly wear them ALL teh time

Will do! I'm in the US but just had a dear friend transfer to Australia- maybe I can get her to be my buying agent:)Thanks again! I always get wonderful inspiration from your posts!
