Braids, Dresses and Fuzzy Tights

This is how I'm wearing my hair today. I haven't braided it in such a long time I was worried it'd be super messy, so I cheated and did it while it was still a bit damp. Again, loving the colours in my hair.

What I am wearing. The maroon cotton dress I bought from Cotton On on Sunday (for the bargain price of $15), black belt, black jacket, and maroon with black tipped Fiorelli shoes.
These shoes have made numerous appearances on this blog before, but I do love them :-)

No face shots today, I thought my makeup was looking alright but in every single one I took I look like a tired, angry zombie...

No face shots from yesterday for a very similar reason. Face shots on a mobile phone in an office are not kinds.
Excuse the fuzzy bathroom picture. I wore a cream dress I bought from a Voguette on the Facebook group page, black tights, cream/black shoes and the same black jacket.
I bought these tights from the Queen Vic Markets on Friday, they're fleece lined and slightly cheaper than the Flox brand. The first fleece lined tights I have owned and I am about to go and buy myself a wardrobe full. I am warmer than if I was wearing
pants....looks like I will be wearing more dresses this winter!

  1. Loving your black belt with your burgundy dress!

    I know how to French braid but I'm not as good at doing it on my own hair. However, Fridays are sport days at school (I'm a teacher) and you've inspired me to give it a go as something different to my regular Friday ponytail!

  10. You've inspired me, I've not braided my hair since PE at school where it was mandatory. I think I'm scarred.
    And umm... The legs comment? Gosh that's why I don't have a blog. Thanks for being brave and giving me bedtime reads. Love the burgundy shoes.
