This week’s Aussie Curve theme is Tee. I have been thinking all week which tee to wear and trying to figure out which one I have available to me that I have not used in a blog before. I was almost going to pass on this week (because I’m sick, again), but then I remembered there was a t-shirt that I haven’t blogged about and that I do actually have in my tiny apartment wardrobe.
I’m sure you’ll all recognise it, it’s one you’ve seen many times before, just not on me.
This week I had grand plans to put together my outfit for Aussie Curves – Job Interview early and get it all blogged and done before Friday.
But the best laid plans and all…
Sure, I had put it off for a couple of days because I hadn’t quite figured out the entire outfit, but I was getting there. Thursday was going to be the day.
Then in the early hours of Thursday morning I had a rather rude awakening in the form of my dinner deciding to come back up (gross). I won’t go into any other details, but two days off work and four days later after a diet of not very much, I’m still not feeling that great. But I am getting better.
Which is why, at the last hour, I have come to write my Job Interview post for Aussie Curves.
Last night I spent a few hours going through multitudes of photos sorting them into various folders to try and find a couple of photos of my outfits from when I was actually interviewing for jobs a few months ago. Lucky for you, I found them.
I had great plans for this week, but alas, life got in the way and I failed the goal I had set myself.
The idea for this week was that I was going to wear what I normally wear to work and just make sure I got an outfit photo everyday. The aim being at the end of five days I would have successfully posted a photo on Instagram every day and I would have five photos to make up the post for this week’s Aussie Curves challenge.
I managed two. Two out of five. Utter fail much?
My everyday style is quite simple. Usually it revolves around jeans and a top of some kind. Lately I have been rocking the singlet and jumper combo. Wellington has decided to turn on the cold finally (just when Spring is approaching!)
So another year of Aussie Curves begins!
The only denim items in my wardrobe are many pairs of jeans, so when it came to deciding what to wear my decision was pretty much made for me.
But of course if I was just going to wear jeans, they were going to be the best pair of jeans I own – a pair of City Chic’s TDFs.
I can’t believe the year of Aussie Curves challenges have come to an end.
When I first started the challenges at week four I didn’t really know what the year was going to hold. I have participated in 26 challenges (including this one).
I’ve had some good outfits and some horrible ones (in my eyes), but the one thing that I can say is that my body confidence has grown enormously. Before starting the AC challenges, I worried about what people would think and say on photos of myself online. I barely posted photos of myself on Facebook, Instagram or here on my blog. A lot has changed.
I have figured out what clothes I like, what I don’t and most importantly what I feel comfortable in. I’ve gone out of my comfort zone several times and bought clothes I would never have bought several years ago. And, most importantly, I’ve made friends with people that I would never have met otherwise.
So here are a few of my favourite outfits from the Aussie Curves challenges.
