today I am wearing...

I'm sporting the governess look today.  Would you like to look after your children?  Pfft!  No thanks. I don't do other peoples kids.  Just being honest.

I don't wear this Sussan dress very often as it's a tad matronly.  It would look better if I look the hem up a bit, to the knee.  As it is, it hits my calves at their widest. But I'm too lazy to borrow a sewing machine.  I find sewing so tedious.  It must have been all the sewing I had to do when doing my fashion/design diploma all those many years ago...

I'm wearing my Zoom zebra print slingbacks to jazz the look up a tad. Happy Monday!

I must admit, I only tried on this Review dress because it was on the sale rail and in my size. I had promised myself a treat, to cheer me up a bit. I trekked round three shopping centres (!), tried on a stack of things and was starting to sulk at the thought of returning home empty handed.

So, just to make sure (that I didn't want the dress), I tried it on again. And suddenly it hit me - what would make the dress a hit - a belt! Of course! I added a belt and decided I loved it after all! A simple belt is such a fab accessory and really can make an outfit. I love that you can change the colour and overall look so easily.

Besides, this dress is quite different to all my other dresses, and it's a perfect casual everyday dress. And for $51 down from $249 - how could I not?!
