Aussie Curves- Knits

I love it when an outfit I put together in my head looks great on. This week our Aussie Curves challenge was knits. I decided to go full-on everything knit, and to pull out my rainbow socks for their first wear.


Knitted dress is from Asos Curve. I have it in red too, I bought it on clearance and though it is prone to pilling it's a great comfy dress. And a nice neutral palette for showing off my rainbow cardigan and socks. My cardy was given to me by a friend (it was too bright for her) and I love the mix of pink and red, with pops of green and turquoise. 


The fabulous socks are from Sock Dreams. They pull up to under my knee, and didn't fall down at all (I wore them the whole day). I think they would go higher on smaller legs. A bit pain of pain was involved in getting them up my legs- the top cuff is very tight and didn't want to stretch over my 20 inch calves. But once I got them over the biggest part they were fine.


Going with the rainbow theme, I pulled out one of my favourite necklaces, a unicorn from a local pin-up style shop, Catfight Collections. They have an online shop and are worth checking out.

  2. That unicorn necklace is so cool!! What I think is awesome is hot the striped cardigan actually goes really well with the striped dress! I wouldn't have thought it would, but it looks really great! Goes to show you just have to try mixing things up sometimes!
