Daily outfit 11/12/2013

Last weekend I finally put up my Christmas tree.  I’d been hanging out to do it since December 1st. However I didn’t want to decorate the tree on my own, and my parents had offered to come around and help.  But it took more than a week to find a day when we were all free.   Finally the whole family got together, cranked up the Christmas tunes and decorated my tree.

DSCF9175Ta-Da!

I’ll have some more detailed tree photos for you next week, but for now I’m going to show off my outfit.

DSCF9176I am wearing:

– Turquoise earrings (were my Nana’s)

– Cotton printed dress (thrifted)

– Black leggings from K Mart

– Pink Converse sneakers.

DSCF9177I got this dress a few months ago in one of my massive op-shop hauls.  I adore the print on it, and it’s really cool for summer.  The only thing I don’t like about it is the neckline.  It’s so low and that makes it hard to find a bra that will work with this dress.  I think I tried on half of the bras in my drawer with the dress, and almost all of them were peeking out the top.

DSCF9178Pockets!  I adore the fact that the pockets on this tunic are a slightly different print to the rest of the dress.  It’s a cute touch.

DSCF9179What did you wear to decorate your Christmas tree?

  1. Love those earrings – and all the more so because they came from your grandma. That’s so sweet!

    Hmmm, I wouldn’t say as though I have a particular type of tree trimming outfit, though if we’re home alone, pajamas with a vintage robe over top would be a fairly common sight.

    Merry two weeks until Christmas!

    • Merry two weeks until Christmas to you too! Thanks so much for your compliment of my earrings. I’ve got a big box of earrings that all came from my Nana. She only ever wore studs, and I usually choose dangling or hoop earrings for myself, so it’s been a nice change to wear some of her vintage stud earrings.
