Aussie Curves : Lush Leather

This week I finally mustered up the courage to let The Husband take some pics for me. As much as I love the guy, I'm still quite self conscious when it comes to getting him to do things like this. But this week was different. The Husband and I ditched the kids and headed away for a weekend, so I was calm, relaxed, dressed up and under the influence of just a touch of red wine and thought what the hell. I even lashed out and took the pics in public and didn't care in people saw (okay well I did a little, but I figured that I'm about 4 hours from home so no one knows me).

Hello, old faithfuls
These are my seasons old favorite of favorites leather boots. I love them so much that they've been reheeled twice rather than buy new boots. But this year I must admit defeat as the toes are starting to get just a tad too scuffed to live another season. Who would've thought that a pair of boots from target would've brought so much joy.

      Thanks Marty. I was really happy how the photos turned out. Yes there was some ripper clangers, but others were great. We had a fantastic weekend. I highly recommend a trip to Warrnambool if you ever make it over to Melbourne.

    You look great. Love this style and the reheeling of the boots. Such a great idea to extend the wear on items you love.

    And yes! Congrats on your photo milestone, loving the coloured wall backdrop, that's a bit cool.

      Thanks Melissa. I actually went looking for new boots the following season but couldn't find anything that I like or that felt as good. I'm so glad I reheeled them now.
      My out and about photos are thanks to you. I was telling The Husband all about the pics that you and your husband take and he was like, "let's do it". So thank you :)

    Great photos! I was so self-conscious when my partner started taking photos for me. Sometimes he gets a little impatient about it, but overall I think he feels excited that he's a part of it all. I just try to be as vocal as I can when it comes to thanking him and letting him know that it means a lot to me.

      Thanks Sophie. I think I could take a leaf out of your book and be a bit more vocal with the praise. Might help with more pics moving forwards.
