I like a good drive. I like to get out of the city and see things bigger than myself, especially lately as I’m feeling pretty ill. I’ve always felt like I belong in the mountains or at the least snug in between rolling hills, so when Nick asks where I’d like to go on a nice afternoon drive I usually say, “the mountains.” We left this afternoon to drive through the Brisbane Valley and stopped at Wivenhoe Dam for a little while so I could generate blog content, ahem, take outfit photos.
Unfortunately I was too busy gasping, feeling tiny and insignificant (actually a good feeling to me!) as we drove past the mountains and hills and the incredible Somerset Dam at sunset, but here’s a lot of nice photos of me and green stuff. I don’t have a terribly whimsical wardrobe, so instead of a gentle photographic journey to soft colours and greenery you get my black velvet and pink/blue lipstick jarring against the lovely backdrop of Wivenhoe.
Top: New Look (actually a dress but it’s incredibly short!)
Skirt: Valley Markets
Shoes: Evans
Ring: xVELVETx
Wrist brace: Terry White Chemists
I don’t think it’s jarring, you look like you live in a cottage right behind the trees, right at home! Is your thing really heavy?
Lol your ring. Stupid phone.
I think the outfit is lovely and works well in the photos.
LOLBIAS!
It’s a witch cottage like in Hansel and Gretel!
I agree!
Cute outfit, Natalie! <3
I’ve been checking out your blog on and off and really enjoy it…I really admire your body confidence and acceptance. You’re really inspiring me to love my own body. And I love your outfit — especially the nails and the ring. Coolest thing ever.
