Curves Around The World: Week 6 - Colour Blocking

Good Morning, fabulous fashionistas!!!

 

You all know that, it is that time of the week for "The Themed Outfits" with my beautiful lady friends who are from all over the world. I must say I am happy I came across these girls in the bloggerville world. I am really loving these themed outfit exercises as they really challenge me and it feels good when I succeed doing them.

 

This weeks theme is COLOUR BLOCKING and by far it is the most that has really challenged me as I never tried the trend before. I really tried my best so you need to cut me some slack and forgive all discrepancy identified.

At first I thought id do royal blue and yellow but I recently had posted an outfit with yellow accents and it felt wrong to be using the same colours for this theme. Pink came to my rescue.

 

I wore this outfit to work on Monday and it got highly windy and very cold after taking these pictures. Thank god my mink jacket saved me. My hat is a recent purchase from Alwal North Foschini. Got it from the sale rack...it sold for R199.00 and I got it for R120.00. So, I just had to wear it this day although weather did not approve. I cared less, I just needed to wear it. You know when you have bought something new - you get excited and itch to wear it #that's how I felt: the wind was never gonna stop me at all, lol. 

 

Please enjoy this post cause I really made an effort putting everything together. Taking these pictures was really fun as I jumped around posing. I must say I love the pictures, they are a great translation of how I was that day. I really thank my colleague Ntembi for being patient with me even when the weather sucked.  She really is an awesome photographer - am lucky to have her :)

The only principle I know about colour blocking is that, one should not use more than 3 colours when putting together a colour blockin outfit. So, I used royal blue, plum and pink - I did pretty good, I think - the colour mix well. What is your opinion? 

"The wind really punished me on many of these pics - please excuse some"

Tropical Punch

  Afternoon, Ladies!!!

 

Hope you are all enjoying your Saturday.

 

There is not much story behind todays post, I am just sharing one of last weeks outfits worn at work on a chilly day. Just woke up on this day feeling happy. Due to that I ended up mixing all these colourful items together and whoallaaaa, I had this tropical punch outfit, hehehehehe!!! Really, who said we cant wear colourful clothes in winter? My outfit is a testimony that we can brighten up the gloomy winter by wearing any colourful clothes!!!

 

My outfits are always playful and full of colour and I just love that because they are a reflection of myself on many levels. Bought my Juicy Couture bag in 2011 to carry my school books and right now I am definitely carrying it to work throwing in everything you can think of - for example I carry my iPad, Laptop, diary, makeup bag and other things ladies throw in their bag - fortunately this bag is big enough to handle all this craziness :)

 

I have been thrifting lately and my outfits posts are bound to have a thing or two from the thrift store. For example on this post my colourful Marks and Spencer cardigan has been thrifted a week ago and loved it the minute I laid eyes on it. It feels good to look great and be complimented on items that cost close to nothing compared to fully price new items. That inspires me to get more, I am telling you :)

 

Do you ever thrift? What is your recent thrifted item? Have you posted anything on your blog about it so we can check it out??? If yes, please leave your blog link alongside with your feedback so we can check it.
