“Your Meme is Not Funny” Shirt from Iro Iro Clothing \\ Art Nouveau Leggings c/o Galaxy Leggings \\ 3.1 Phillip Lim Medium Pashli in Multi-media \\ Shoe Cult by Nasty Gal “Strut” Cutout Chelsea Boots Printed leggings are probably the single most difficult item to style (that, and maybe dresses made of meat), but the trade off is that they look and feel amazing on legs. You just don’t want to take them off once they’re on. These art nouveau print leggings (Alphonse Mucha’s  to be precise) from Galaxy Leggings reminds me of somewhat of medieval armour. So understandably, I feel real badass wearing them. Going back to my point about styling printed leggings, my tip is you can’t lose with paring them with blacks and whites. My printed T Shirt is from Canberra Facebook shop Iro Iro – Miona always has the coolest unexpected pieces. Since I knew you guys would be foaming at the mouth with desire like I was over these leggings, I’m giving one away to one lucky reader! All you have to do is share this giveaway on Facebook!

BARE THEM LEGS

I won’t deny it. I’m a shameless leg-barer – always have been. Even back in high school I used to wear tiny shorts every single day, even if my butt cheek showed, and I had 10 pairs of them. But it wasn’t because I thought I had great legs. On the contrary. I’ve always hated how ‘athletic’ they look. People would always ask me if I was in a basketball team or something. The irony was that I’ve never run a full mile in my life. I’m pretty sure the last time I tried I threw up at the 100 meters mark. Ok, I exaggerate for effect, but I think you get my point. No, it wasn’t about showing them off, or even because I liked to see them myself (heck no!). It just feels great, no? So liberating. You feel like you could get up and do kart wheels if you wanted to. And trust me, the urge does inevitably hit once in a while. The short short is still among one of my favourite things to wear, but these days I opt for the non-butt-cheek-baring styles. That’s why I love these perfect Jorge lace trim shorts. They are decidedly short but cover up all the places that need covering including the notorious fat part of the thigh. Wearing sleeveless tops with short shorts is way too obvious in my books, so on this warm spring day I paired these with a breezy silk blouse. These days I love everything in slouchy fits. I guess it’s like leaving the figure to the imagination, like, does she have any boobs, or not? Keep them guessing!

Shoe Cult Strut Cutout Chelsea Boot

It was shoe - *ahem* - love at first sight, guys, as you probably saw from my Pinterest spam a couple of weeks ago how obsessed I was about the Shoe Cult by Nasty Gal (Yup! They make shoes now, and so awesomely too!) ‘Strut’ Cutout Chelsea Boot. It turns out I found out about this shoe almost too late and I was somehow able to nab the very last size 37 left on the Nasty Gal website – see, it was meant to be! I just love the shoe-slash-boot-slash-sandal idea, and with the transparent strap, the ‘Strut’ looks as though they’re magically adhering to your feet. If there was such a thing as a ‘summer boot’ then these are them! I don’t have the research and data analysis to prove it, but I’m pretty darn sure the cut out feature make legs look longer!
