Wednesday Wardrobe Challenge: Attire to be worn whilst beating off cannibals

This weeks challenge comes from our very own Helga Von Trollop - attire to be worn whilst beating off cannibals. Slightly obscure sure - but If I am going to beat off cannibals I need two things from my outfit - first up I need it to be comfortable. So I decided to wear a pair of doc martins as you can pretty much wear these anywhere (and run in them if you need to) and also the most comfortable dress I own!

 

I also decided that I needed to look a little bit bad ass - that will account for all the black and skulls.

I wore my new sucre noir sweater clip and favourite skully scarf.

I wore my boots of course - they would totally help me fight of cannibals (not entirely sure how, but I'm sure they would)

I wore my bone bracelet and chunky ring.

I'm rather fond of this shade of lipstick at the moment - its an avon shade called "Rich Terracotta".

Finally - putting on my angry face to fight off all those cannibals.

Hope you're all having a super week xoxo

Wednesday Wardrobe Challenge: Alt Country

I'm not quite sure what's happening with Wednesday Wardrobe Challenge - this is the second week with not challenge.So I asked Rich to give me a challenge and he chose "Alt Country".

I really wish I had some cowboy boots - they would have been perfect for this challenge! I wasn't sure quite how to tackle the challenge Rich set, I think perhaps my outfit is a little more alternative than it is country.

Given that the challenges for Wednesday Wardrobe Challenge have become so sporadic - I've been wondering what to do. I have considered joining the Aussie Curves challenge, but then I had another idea that could also work out.

I decided, that I would ask you, dear readers to give me some Wednesday Wardrobe Challenge ideas!

What do you all think - all you have to do is leave your challenge in the comments section and I'll do my best to meet all the challenges.

The challenge can be a colour, an item of clothing or a colour or something more obscure like "Alt Country".

Wednesday Wardrobe Challenge ???

Hey guys, I'm not quite sure what happened with Wednesday Wardrobe Challenge this week! My friend Kat usually sends out the challenge and then I upload it on facebook - but I didn't get a challenge from here this week. However, she is pregnant right now - so perhaps she has baby brain.

My own wardrobe challenge didn't quite work out this week - so I decided to "borrow" a challenge from elsewhere.

I noticed earlier this week that Olivia from Wait Until The Sunset was taking part in the Aussie Curves Challenges, so I figured I would join in as well - I'm kind of crashing the party, but I'm sure my Australian friends won't mind.

After all - last week the Daily Telegraph did decide that the country of Aus Zealand existed (at least for the purpose of the Olympics) so I'm sure my Aussie friends won't mind me joining in.

Anyway the challenge this week for Aussie Curves was boots - when I saw that I thought it would be a great chance to wear my brand new suede boots. However, overnight it completely poured down and it was still raining a lot this morning. I decided that even though I had waterproofed by suede boots, I didn't really want to push my luck and wear them out on a rainy day. Instead I decided to stick to my trusty old Doc Martins.

I really love this dress at the moment - It used to belong to my friend Hiliare, but she bought it to a clothes swap party and then it became mine!

My bone bracelet from Rich - plus another clothes swap score, my deer ring!

I love this little guy - I got him in an "owl & fox" swap I did on Craftster - I have shown you all the fox brooch I received before, but I am pretty sure that the owl is making his debut.

In case you couldn't guess - Rich was feeling in a rather artistic mood when he took these photos! Makes a nice change from the same old pose (or perhaps it IS the same old pose, just from a different point of view).

I hope you are all having a good week - I've been taking in some film festival films, catching up on study and of course working. Here's hoping for clearer skies so I can show you my new boots soon.
