Aussie Curves - Headwear

The challenge for Aussie Curves this week has been Headwear.

I've seen some gorgeous and some very creative pieces this week! From electric Christmas lights by Omega here, a helmet by Ellecurve here, a flower crown by Dani here and everything inbetween!

I, on the other hand don't have anything that really stands out or makes a statement in the headwear department so I just decided to challenge myself by wearing something "headwear-ish" every day of the week, like I did for last weeks Yellow challenge.
Monday I did nothing flash. It was too hot for anything thick or heavy so I just went with the boring classic black headband. I saw a lot of other impressive headwear on Instagram and Facebook so said I would step it up a notch tomorrow.
It was still simple but a bit prettier. I got this (above) from Lovisa.
Wednesday I decided to do something a lil' different and wear a hair barrette. I love this one by Mimco - I'm told its from a Monet painting and was only a few dollars from an op shop. 
I love this headband and green top together so much that when I hang the top up the headband stays with it!

By Friday I had well and truly realised that headwear is not my thing. Maybe the occasional little headband or clip but that's it. I really felt I struggled to do anything fantastic. I thought they were good but nothing great. 
Today I decided to try out my hats. I like hats but don't feel right in them. I especially like the brown one but never know what to wear it with....
What would you wear it with?

Aussie Curves - Yellow

This weeks challenge for Aussie Curves was Yellow.
This City Chic skater dress is the only item of clothing I own with yellow on it. I bought it in Geelong New Years Eve 2012 just in case I decided to go out, that and cause it was only $30! Unfortunately I didn't get to wear it this week as it shows too much cleavage to be appropriate for work so I've reused the above photo of the dress from my Frocktober posts.

So back to what I did for this challenge... I decided I would wear something yellow every day of the week. 
Monday
Yellow Ray Ban Sunnies - op shopped $4

Tuesday
L'Oreal Exotic Canaries nail polish - Big W $6
Wednesday
Yellow headband - op shopped 50c
Thursday
This coloured (yellow included) bone like necklace - op shopped $4
Friday
Fluoro yellow earrings - Diva $3
Yellow hair clip - $4 at local quarterly market
Saturday
Yellow earrings - op shopped 25c
yellow thumb ring - op shopped $1


 
Next weeks challenge? Headwear. I'll be doing another every day challenge 
 
Until then check out some of the other Aussie Curvettes rockin' yellow below!
