Aussie Curves: PURPLE!

Hello beautiful Aussie Curves readers!

Purple week is here...WOOHOO! I love purple! One of my favvvvve colours to wear, always has been! I have been so busy with travelling home after the Summer holidays, unpacking our lives and getting straight back into preparing for the new teaching year that I have had no time to take any OOTD shots on the good camera (I have managed to get a few on my Samsung Galaxy!).It is definitely not a first choice of mine to use outfit shots from my phone on my blog which is why I have once again dug up some photos from my US trip last June/July to share with you...that and the fact that I just love reliving my USA life LOL. (I need to go back immediately ) Ehh ANYWAY, here is what I wore to the most anticipated night of my life for the whole of 2012...CELINE DION IN CONCERT IN VEGAS!!!!

People laugh at me when I say how much I love Celine because apparrrrrrently she's "old" and for "old people" but WHATEVZ...I will fly my Celine flag high until forever because I truly believe she is the GREATEST voice of our time! There was always a top 3 for me Mariah, Whitney & Celine. Whitney's gone *tear*, Mariah's voice fell down a well & never came back so Celine is the last (wo)man standing with her timeless voice, beauty & Grace. So yeah...I love Celine, LOL.

Here's how I wore purple:

Purple floral shirt/jacket- thrifted, Salvo's $3/  Fluro high-neck shirt, thrifted (Millers) Vinnie's $6/ Ruffle skirt, City Chic $20/ Wedge boots, Rivers $20/ Tan handbag, Equip $15.

Love this sparkle number sister thrifted from one of our favourite local opshops Mickey & Mallory.

I seriously love Ruth's dress she picked up in Forever21 in NYC paired with her blue suede pumps.

Totally clowning with our "sing like Celine" faces. LOL.

 Is there a musician or music artist who just makes your whole life? Do tell...

OOTD: A closer look!

Hi lovelies!!

Here's just a quick post to give you a closer look at my OOTD for a wedding I attended here! I didn't get a chance to post this picture with my wedding post because the only decent shot we got was on my sister's iphone that I didn't have access to at the time (please excuse the photo quality). Here it is:

Floral high-neck dress, $6 Thrifted- Salvo's/ Wedge T-bar heels, $60 from www.barefoottess.com two seasons ago/ Gold coin statement necklace, thrifted $3/ handbbag thrifted, $3 St Vincent DePaul's

This dress had been screaaaaaaaaming out for me to wear it since I bought it from a thrift store in early 2012. In my wedding post I mentioned that I had wanted to wear it to the Celine Dion concert I went to in Vegas while on our most recent US trip. Something about FINALLY seeing one of my most beloved performers in the flesh made me want to dress to the nines and that immediately made me think of this dress! Sadly it was waaaaaaaaaay to hot to be wearing this in Vegas so the practicality in me said "NO, Theresa...you will want to stab yourself in the foot with a rusty fork if you wear this and spend the whole time sweating your ring out and being hot & bothered...blah blah blah" haha, do you ever do that?

Ehh, long story short it went back kicking and screaming into my suitcase and was not to resurface again until this glorious day!! I'm glad I saved it too, its as if it was all meant to fall into place like it did and it was the perfect dress for this wedding!

Hope you like it coz I sure do! It's my faveeeeeourite thrifted dress to date!! :)

Big Love xx
