Lately my old faithful skinny jeans haven’t been quite so comfy. A wee bit on the firm side if you know what I mean. So I’ve roped in some discipline to cut back on the sweet treats.
But perhaps that explains why I’ve been loving a full skirt in the last couple of weeks. They’re a bit more forgiving when I’m feeling a little curvier.
So here’s what my Instagram feed tells me I’ve been wearing lately in Styling You‘s #everydaystyle challenge. As well as how I might wear it if we were holidaying somewhere lovely.
Home – This outfit is one of my absolute favourites at the moment. Not least because it caught the attention of Styling You for her metallics wrap-up. This was a running around day of errands and playgrounds.
Away – The planning has begun for our Disney Extravaganza trip to Florida next year, so I’m thinking this would be ideal for a day of exploring at the Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral.
Top – Forever New
Skirt – Sussan
Shoes – Target, similar here
Home – I wore this striking Portmans skirt for day 1 of the transition program for Master 5 starting school next year. Time to get the tissues ready!
Away – I love visiting an art gallery when on holidays, but hubster and the kids are not so keen, so I would wear this to have a peaceful wander around The Fashion World of John Paul Gaultier, which is currently on at the NGV in Melbourne.

Skirt – Portmans

Home – Once a week I do some voluntary teaching at Miss 7’s school, so I dressed up a little in this lovely silky Target dress.
Away – I’m sure it’s not just us who will be travelling to spend Christmas with family this year, so a “dressy” dress like this one will be required in the suitcase.

Wedges – Diana Ferrari, similar here
Home – This is such a versatile dress. I’m sure it would look fab dressed up with some heels, but it’s a stretchy comfy pull-over-your-head kind of dress that made it ideal for having friends over for a bbq and a swim.
Away – Sparkly flats with this eye-catching dress is as fancy as I get for a family dinner at a resort restaurant. And practical enough for a walk along the beach after dinner.
Dress – Boden
Sandals – Nine West, similar here
Will you be Christmassing at home or away this year?
Any Florida tips for me? It has been a very long time since I was there!!
