Aussie Curves - Perfect Purple

Well I'm just going to put it out there and say that I'm another who doesn't really wear purple. I was actually thinking that I was either going to have to 
  1. Bust out some purple accessories as an easy way out, or
  2. Pour myself into a gorgeous purple bridesmaid dress that I'm sure I'd need a shoehorn to get my rack into
when Mr 9 walked straight into my cupboard and pulled out a purple dress/tunic and asked "What about this?" How this kid knows my wardrobe better than me beats the heck out of me. So the tunic it was.

Being that it was a rush job to get any pics done, here's me a-la natural (and I mean sans makeup, not naked before you're too scared to scroll down) having a casual family day on the way to the local Australia Day fair.
 Sunglasses: Some generic brand  
(since I recently broke my prescription ones *sob)
Scarf: Valleygirl
Cardigan: Katies
Tunic: Moda - Target
Leggings: K Mart
Shoes: Ruby Shoes

Sorry about the dodgy pic, but sometimes you just have to work with what you've got.
Keen to check out the rest of the Purple Posse, then read on below.

Aussie Curves: Fabulous Feathers

After a major blogging hiatus where life just seemed to get in the way, I'm back with a new exciting challenge for myself. Yes, I'm sure everyone who sees this will groan as they know my penchant for starting all these wonderful things then the novelty wears off all too soon but this is different. This is a new year. A new me. I'm six months off forty. It's time I sorted myself and my life so this year is dedicated to me. A happier, healthier me.

So with no further adieu, I bring you me. You know the one that's always hiding her face behind the lens so that there are no pics of her. Well no more. It's all about to change with a little help from some bloggers that I stumbled across. Bloggers who embrace their curves. Bloggers who understand that plus size doesn't mean wear a muumuu or something your Nanna would wear. Bloggers who look fabulous. So this challenge to myself is all about stepping out of my comfort zone. Doing, trying and wearing things I wouldn't normally consider. Each week there is a new challenge. And this week is feathers.




Necklace: Equip
Singlet top: K Mart
Sleeveless cardi: Katies
Skirt: Avella for Big W
Shoes: Ruby

P.S. Yes, yes I know. Those chook legs of mine need some spray tanning, stat.
