I have wanted to do an Aussie Curves post for a while, but have always felt too awkward/self-conscious/scared to do an outfit post.
This year one of my goals is to do more things that scare me, and so, here we are (an outfit may not seem like a big deal, but for someone who struggles with their appearance/ever-changing body shape, it is for me. I take a crap-tonne of selfies, but outfit posts? Yeah. Nah).
Anyway, this week’s Aussie Curves prompt was ‘shoes’, which I think is a good starting point for me (next week’s prompt is swimwear, which would definitely be throwing myself into the deep end; I don’t feel that confident yet).
Today, I wore two pairs of shoes; in the morning, I wore my one of my favourite pairs of shoes. They are a pair of black flats with metallic studs, which I when we went to Canada. I wanted something I could take off easily while we were on the plane, and these were the cheapest I could find. I’ve worn them a fair bit since, but are now only worn around the house (the grip is now non-existent; I blogged about it here about a month and a half ago).
The second pair I wore are a pair of red suede flats with a black bow. I wore these, when I went into town to have coffee with my mum (these have much more grip, and I don’t feel as if I’m going to slip down our hill in these)
Because it can’t be an outfit post without an actual outfit, here is a photo of what I wore today. Phillip took a bunch of photos, but I’m sharing the one where I look the least awkward/self-conscious about having my photo taken.
Cardi – Mirrou

Awww, thanks :) I feel so awkward having my photo taken, but this is the year of doing things that scare me! Xx
Love the stud pair, oh and your tee is super cute! I freaked out when I first started sharing my photos but I had my bestie take them for me which definitely helped me relax when starting out. Have fun with it ;-)
So glad you joined in, I want to see more!!! ;) I’m with you in getting comfy, slip on, slip off shoes for flying (and going through airport security). Both pairs are super cute!
I love both the shoes, the bows are cute. I had some bow flats but my dog ate the soles out!! Good on you for stepping out of your comfort zone. So nice to see your smiling face :-)
Thank you so much. I feel so awkward doing these posts, but they’re fun and I will definitely be doing more Aussie Curves posts xx
