Aussie Curves - Nature

Nature; this weeks Aussie Curves challenge is Nature, not natural. My first thought was Natural? I should do some tasteful Nude shots! But no Charlene! It's nature, not natural!! Gees no nudies already!  

As I looked through my wardrobe to see what nature themed clothing I had I realised just how much nature must be a huge inspiration for clothing designers. Flowers on floral, leaf patterns & shapes, animal prints and all the colours of the rainbow! These are just some of the nature inspired prints from my wardrobe. 
For this challenge I decided to wear this dress I opshopped ages ago for $3. I actually think it is a skirt but I prefer it as a strapless dress. Pastel colours aren't me but paired with black in this skirt I can pull it off, I actually think I rock it!!
The flowers on this dress are so lifelike I love them, hence why I've used it for my Nature challenge post! 
Target skirt made dress - opshopped $3
Belt - opshopped $2
New Look tights - given to me by a friend
TS14+ sleeveless cardi - opshopped $5
Looped scarf - opshopped $1.50
City Chic black top (underneath) - opshopped $4
Kmart boots (these don't pull all the way up but still look good scrunched down) - opshopped $4
Coral bangle - opshopped $1

    1. Thanks babe! I pair nearly everything with black, I should probably attempt it with a different colour but black works too well for me!

  6. The print is gorgeous! Love that you've worn it as a dress, I wouldn't have even noticed/thought it was a skirt if you hadn't pointed it out!
