Investment piece has been a tough one for me because the majority of my clothes, shoes and accessories are opshopped, second hand etc.
However for about 6 months now I have been all for Australian brands and designers. I think supporting Australian plus size or just body positive brands is a really great idea, for so many reasons.
And even though some of my pieces are secondhand I still think it's good to help get the brand name out there but I promise I do intend to buy from them when I can!
Here is my collection so far!
The 'Gone Fishing' skirt $65
The 'Deep Sea Skirt' $65
Safari Shirt - Moss green $129
(Photo from the Hope & Harvest website)This moss green 'Safari shirt' I preordered from H&H. Can't wait till this baby comes! It feels amazing on! Approx. $129 Must have to be the most expensive top I've ever bought but it feeels ssooo goood!!
White Anchor tee $45
Nauticus capri pants $79
Black Fringed top off eBay for $18
Wet look Scuba leggings
Bought second hand $40 (which includes P&P)
Lace overlay dress $25 (on sale)
Chambray Chiffon tie shirt $30 (on sale)
It's a small collection I know but I have started. And I have my eye on heaps more...like
Pho Sizzle has more I'm a bit excited about!
Huudaverti has This skirt lined with a jersey material!
(picture from Huudaverti website)Lisa Kerr Designs had lots of great staples I would love! Especially the denim look dress cause it feels so comfortable!
Nyata has the Wanita lady top I need cause my middle name is Juanita.
I could go on forever really but I won't! Instead check out the Investment pieces of the other Aussie Curve babes below!

Thanks Charlene. We love that skirt too and it is so comfy to wear.
ReplyDeleteI love the Jersey lining! At the CCR market I showed your sister (or you, depends if you're Jan) the lining of the skirt I had in then. It was non stretchy, splut and fraying and so frustrating! So the jersey lining is what has sold me!!! :)
DeleteThis is such a nice post Charlene, I think you've got the right idea about investment pieces and I'm so flattered that you'd consider PHO sizzle an investment piece. xxx
ReplyDeleteI reckon it's partially because of you and your [much appreciated] rants that I realised the need to support Local or Australian Brands and designers! Thanks Jacqui!
