Aussie Curves- Orange





Knock knock
Who's there?
Orange
Orange who?
Orange you glad Aussie Curves is doing an orange theme!

Please excuse the bad joke but I could not resist. Truth be told orange has never really featured in my wardrobe, I tend to stick to colours like red, blue and black. Knowing the orange challenge was fast approaching I spotted a few orange things in my latest impromptu shopping expedition. I have not entered a Glassons store since I was about fifteen on the account of their sizing and generic clothing lines. I was drawn in on this occasion but heir cardigan table and thought I needed a new one so why not try it out at $25 a pop. They only go up to a size 16 which I am not but I tried anyway in light of my recent weight loss and surprisingly they fitted me just enough to be okay. Super stretchy and with tons of colour options I felt brave and ventured further into the store to the sale racks where I found this amazingly cute orange spotted cardigan. I grabbed it and left happy to have something to use in Aussie Curves orange challenge. November 17th saw me sporting the cardigan out for the first time with a causal jeans and t-shirt outfit both by City Chic. On the way back to the car I spotted this orange wall and quickly started posing for my boyfriend to photograph me hehe. So here for you I present my orange outfit complete with orange wall and construction signage!





Further up the road I spotted some dismantled road works signage and got a bit silly. If it is orange it works right? Hmm..

Have you embraced orange into your wardrobe yet? If not maybe these lovely ladies will inspire you to!

  5. I love the cardi! So cute and your photos are so fun :) I always ignore sizes, they are just numbers, I've got clothes that range from size 8 (yes, it shocks me too!) to size 20. If it looks good, wear it and ignore the stupid sizing numbers. :)

    1. This is so true. for the past few years I have just avoided shops like supra and glassons because the clothes are cheap and nasty and usually ill fitting anyway but this day I tried and I liked. Usually I can squeeze into a small size but they are never long enough int he arm or torso as I am quite tall.

  6. GREAT photos! Love them. This is a cute and casual outfit that I would wear in a second. The cardigan especially. Gorgeous.

    I loved the Dad joke at the start. I'm still having a bit of a chuckle even now. Haha.
