(I wish these shoes came up just a tiny bit higher to eliminate the dreaded toe-cleavage. Also, enjoy the scratches on my foot. I fell over ONTO a bike in my shed in the dark the other night. I've got grazes all over my legs (hence the midi skirt) and my knee is still swollen!)

This skirt pretty much wrinkles as soon as you look at it, but I wanted to show you guys the cute scalloped edges on it.

sometimes i like to dress like a teenage boy

Everything in this post is from either Target or K-Mart and the entire outfit cost less than $50. Most the time when I go out I wear dresses and cute shoes and then I'll see some girl wearing jeans and sneakers and I'll feel a bit over-dressed. Then when I go out in jeans and sneakers I'll see a bunch of girls looking babely in dresses and I'll feel like I'm under-dressed. I felt a bit like that last night when I wore this to go see Girls play at The Corner, but I was super comfy all night even if I did look like a 15 yr old boy.

Lately when I'm going out and actually wearing a cute outfit I've been either forgetting my camera or having too much fun to bother with taking photos so instead these are ones of me dressed super casually hanging out with my cat in my kitchen.

I have a bit of an obsession with eyebrows. They're the first thing I notice about people and I over-plucked mine when I was younger so they're pretty thin/weird and I really don't like them. So after however many years of being insecure about my eyebrows I decided it was time to do something about it and bought Brows-A-Go-Go from Benefit:

I love it so much! I can't believe the difference it makes and I actually kind of like my eyebrows with this stuff on. I'm only a beginner so please excuse me if they don't look perfect but here's an example:

lazy monday afternoons

t-shirt: savers, shorts: target, shoes: havaianas, sunglasses: paola loves to shop

basic black

dress: silence and noise, shoes: target, scarf: target, jacket: jay jays, tights: myer.

I usually hate it when bloggers post photos that were taken inside their apartments because a) it's boring and b) I want to see them actually wearing their outfit somewhere out of the house! But it was just too damn cold to go outside and take photos so you'll have to forgive me for the boring scenery and believe me that I did wear this outfit to work.

In other exciting news I signed up to flickr because my blog was getting so much traffic that photobucket were telling me I was about to run out of bandwidth! Also, let's be friends on twitter? Add me: twitter.com/FatAus.

purple skirts and cats

skirt: tokito, boots: same as here, tank top: target, jacket: op shop

I wasn't completely sure about buying a purple pleather mini skirt when I tried this on recently but something about it made me think of Teer Wayde and the photo of her in the orange dress on her header. So I bought it and I have no regrets. A friend also showed me a photo of Drew Barrymore wearing a very similar skirt so I'm in good company. In case anybody is wondering, no these photos were not taken in my bedroom.

This is not related to clothes or being fat but I'm going to talk about it anyway. I adopted another cat! His name is Maloney and he's a year old and such a little sweetie. So far he and my other cat, Ziggy, are getting along really well. Here are some photos:
