CITY SLICKER IN THE COUNTRY

Living in Melbourne all my life, I certainly feel like a city slicker when I come up to Townsville and am surrounded by acres of bushland at my boyfriend’s residence. I’m not complaining though… I certainly love it up here. Especially at the moment as it was a chilly 1 degree at home yesterday morning compared to waking up to 21 degrees when I got up this morning. Perfection. The warmer weather calls for some summer lovin’ with my Saboskirt Lace Denim Shorts that are oh so cool and oh so comfortable. I love high waisted denim and I actually did not expect these to be as the photos on the website made them look regular but much to my surprise, I got more than I wanted.

I had also been looking for another statement necklace to add to my collection. I had been lusting over these petrol necklaces (available here if you’re interested in what I mean) that would certainly POP out of my regular black & white outfits. However, as I was leaving for Townsville the next day (this was on Monday) and could not find this necklace in the Lovisa store near me I head over to Colette Accessories. I saw this blue beaded knot necklace and I had to have it! I was a bit concerned with the colour not matching my skin tone but after a second opinion from my mum, there was no doubt I was leaving without it. For only $15, how could I say no? I thought this necklace was perfect during the day with lighter tones such as white and denim for a summery look during the day but quickly jazzed up with all black and I would have a perfect outfit for dinner or for going out to town.
