warm and fuzzy

I've never been very good with winter clothes, which sucks right now as it feels like it's getting colder by the minute here in Melbourne. Floral dresses and skirts are unwillingly put away, and colour seems to disappear from the wardrobe. Dressing up isn't so much fun when whatever you wear ends up being covered by frumpy sweaters and jackets. So it was great to find this pretty pink Witchery sweater on my latest thrifting day out. It was only $3 too! Was actually $6, but they had a half-price day -- yay!

The sweet heart necklace and badge are from Maria.

There's more where those came from. Maria has absolutely spoilt me with this amazing heart-filled package. Her "one badge a day" (how cute is that name?) badges are just what I need to brighten up my winter wear. I've already pinned most of them already on my jackets and coats.

Terima kasih ya Anna, maunya sih begitu di-kliping..Cm blm sempet2, hehehehe...

Ide yang bagus untuk menjadi "cerah" di musim dingin (walopun blm prnh ngerasain sih :p) dgn menambahkan pin warna-warni, apalgi pinnya motif hati gitu...Makin colorful ^^

Cuuuuute! I had a necklace just like that when I was little. Makes me wonder if I don't still have it lying around somewhere.
And thanks for the sweet compliment. = )

Love the colour of your sweater! Badges are lovely to spice up jackets or bags!

So strange that here it should be getting warmer and down under it's so cold :)

You should come over here!

This post is filled with all kinds of adorableness. Adding pins to outfits are one of my favorite things to do when I want to add something extra (and fun) to a piece.

I love that heart necklace.

Missa said...

That first picture matches your banner perfectly with the color of the sweater (which is so pretty) and the adorable heart necklace :) Of course the badge is adorable too!

Lovely sweater!

Quixsa said...

I couldn't agree more! Whenever winter comes around, all colors seem to fade until only gray, black, and charcoal remain. Keep wearing that pink sweater! and for only $3, That is just silly!

Wanderlusting said...

wow - 3 for a sweater? Can't beat that!

Maverick Malone said...

Really love that necklace...so cute.

xox, mavi

Sam said...

Pretty, pretty! Love the pastels! I've got a bit of a thing for dusky pink at the moment!

Pretty Little Pictures said...

I struggle with winter clothes too, and i find it very hard living in the southern hemisphere when so many of my favourite blogs are in the northern hemisphere. When its cold here i'm inspired by their summer, and when its warm here i'm inspired by their winter!! Can't win!!

*gasp* thrifted Witchery! You struck gold, my darling. The colour looks lovely on you. Here in NZ there's currently a Witchery outlet store with the cheapest tops priced at $11.90. I've spent many a long lunch hour in there.

I've passed 4 awards onto you, gorgeous.

I'm so jealous of your cold weather! It's so ridiculously hot and humid in Hong Kong... maybe time for a vacation down under?

Love the sweater, by the way :)
