Aussie Curves – Second Hand

aussiecurves-2ndhand-00
I had to really think this week, cause I don’t own many 2nd hand items of clothing. I knew I had a few pairs of shoes and some jewellery passed down from family, but clothing, nope. That was until I remembered my Beth Ditto for Evans Domino Dress! This dress was love at first sight for me, but I didn’t have the money to buy when it came out, and it sold out pretty quickly. However, a year or two later, Definatalie sold hers. I snapped it up ASAP.

It fit me perfectly at the time, but now I’ve lost a little weight it’s a bit big. I often wear it with a skirt over the top (as seen here), but with a belt I don’t think it looks too noticeable (unless I put my hands on my hips, as below).

These shoes are also 2nd hand. My 2nd pair of Jeffrey Campbells, I bought them off ebay for a fraction of the price. I’d always loved the look of the Tardy boot, and the silver gave it a futuristic edge.

Aussie Curves – Dark

This weeks Aussie Curves theme was ‘DARK’. Now that’s something I could do. As a teen, I was constantly called ‘goth’, I dyed my hair black, liked spikes and cuffs, wore my Dr Marten boots with my school uniform, so yeah, I guess you could have called me goth. I wore a lot of black because that was avilable to me, as a plus size teen I didn’t have many options. I think that is one of the reasons why I love fashion so much these days.

It’s funny how we grow and evolve. This obviously isn’t something I’d wear everyday. Yes, I’d wear elements of this outfit, but as a whole look, no, not unless is was a fancy dress party. Flash back 8 – 10 years ago and I would be in heaven, I would have never ever took this outfit off. So no, I didn’t wear this outfit all day, or even out of the house.

I think I look a bit like a futuristic goth hooker. I actually asked my brother to take these photos for me and his reaction to my outfit was rather amusing. So, thanks Daniel for being an awesome big bro! Oh and of course Frodo decided to get in on the action.

Bodysuit – Gisela Ramirez | Skirt – New Look  | Jacket – Damn you alexis
Belt – Gift from Sarah | Headband – Gift from Too Many Sequins (it’s from ASOS)
Shoes – Jeffrey Campbell Litas 

My favourite brand of lipstick by far is Lime Crime, I actually own 7 of their lipsticks. Centrifuchsia is usually my ‘go to’ lipstick, but I picked up Poisonberry the other week and i’ve been constantly wearing it. I love it!
