Aussie Curves:15 week roundup

Hello lovely ones,

Just a quick post here. At the moment I'm in Adelaide for my nieces 4th birthday. Finished work yesterday, chucked everything in the car and BOOM! I'm waking up to my 3 nieces running around my brothers house. Anyways I have been busy again with school work and reports SMH. and I haven't had a chance to find anything strapless. When I packed to move to Mildura I took a whole heap of warm clothes because it gets sooooo cold and I left most of my summer wardrobe at home at the South Coast so my choices are non existent at the moment.

But I have come accustomed to my weekly curves submission and I thought I'd do a 15 week round up (geeeeeeze time flies when you're having fun) of the past 15 weeks worth of fun.

If you're a brilliant mathematician you will notice that there are not 15 pics here and that's because I didn't know about the Aussie Curves challenge until it had already started. The first weeks topic was Boots and the second was Bold Nails (from memory). I missed the first week but I had an outfit with boots and leggings on the third so I figured it made up for it.

What's your favourite outfit here? I think I like my skirts one the best. 

Hope you are all well. Enjoy your weekend.

Big love,

Falala Mele.

Aussie Curves: Stripes in NYC

Hello lovely ones,

It is officially the start of the school holidays! I have been busy and I crammed every ounce of work I could pull out of my backside in before Friday afternoon. Had pancakes with my lovely girls in Mildura. Slept at 1am. Up at 7am. Packed and started the 12 hour drive from Mildura with my sister. Made it home by 8:30pm. Greeted by my parents and Aunty and have been busy ever since.

Spent yesterday:

6:30am morning stroll with my Mum, Aunty & Snoopy

Picked up my gorgeous baby niece

Spring fair with my Mum, Aunty and sisters

Lunch with my sisters

afternoon snooze (OMG I am living on the edge)

editing US pictures

and a movie marathon (I never get to watch movies and my hard drive is full)

What's coming up:
2 weddings
a graduation
nieces birthday
op shopping raid on all my local spots "HONEEEEEY I'M HOMEEEE"
Lady Antebellum concert
beach time :)
catching up with all my friends <3

Anyways that's where I'm at right now.


This week called for stripes and I just so happened to have an outfit featuring stripes ready to go. I found this top and I loved it for a variety of reasons. I based the rest of the look around  this one piece. I love that it has a high cut around the neck. I have been wearing a lot of that lately. Fell in love with the low cut back. It's nice not hoochie and that's how I like to roll ;)

I combined some of my favourite never-fail combinations with the look and I felt cooooool in my OOTN. The red lips and gold eyes are one of my fave makeup looks. The city chic skirt gave my body extra hips and shape and it allowed the top half of my body to be accentuated by the stripes. One of my favourite New York outfits of this trip :)

So this night we went out to Shadows in Manhattan. Sooooo many funny stories from that night but I guess you just had to be there. NY night scene is on another level. We are so timid here in Australia. Those New Yorkers like to party and it's a good thing cause we do too.

Major thanks to our Trini-Sissys. They took us out and danced the night away. This was our last night in New York. Next afternoon we flew out to Vegas. Danced all night and walked to Maccas for some chicken bites. That was the only thing open and all that dancing made us hungry. Sorry about the poor picture quality. Just took the little point and shoot because we planned to dance our asses off!

Striped Top: SES Westfield / Skirt City Chic $15 (sale) / Shoes Target $35 / Bag Earring Chain: Thrifted

If I hear music and I like it, then I will dance. I'm not shy at all (see above). I love dancing with my girls!

Candice, Mele, Ruth, Gabby and Theresa

OMG I love my gold drop clip-ons. I think they were like $2. Thrifted find baby!

Last shot before leaving shadows.

Big Love,
