So we're half way through the first month of Spring here and it's still cold and overcast almost every day. I don't think I would have survived my first winter in Melbourne without this giant fluffy American Eagle coat to fall back on. I bought it off of eBay a year or so ago while still living in Adelaide, where it was never cold enough to wear it without feeling overdressed.
Today I'm going across town to pick up my roster and uniform (hello, blue polar fleece!) in preparation for working at the Melbourne Show next week. Is anybody planning on going? I'll be working in the showbag hall so come say hi to me if so! I'm sort of looking forward to having my braces tightened again at the end of the month; my teeth are slowly, slowly becoming more even so I can almost smile now (I even managed a small one for these photos!). Have a happy Wednesday!

Hello! I'm in Adelaide, and it is fuhreezing here this week. Still, good excuse to get the last use of the season out of yummy coats and scarfs etc. :)

Very pretty dress, loving the huge bow. I've been on the hunt for a blouse with an obnoxiously big bow for some time now but no luck!
Congrats on the magazine feature :)
You look beautiful in the Alessandra dress! I've been stalking ebay forever looking for one of those!
Love the coat!! I usually go to the Melb show, but not this year as I'm living in NZ. Gotta love showbags, especially the Bertie Beetle one! Have a blast! xx
I love your whole outfit; the bow is amazing.
Congrats on your feature btw!

I just found your blog through your comment on Animastro. What a gem!
Loving the Marc Jacobs, very cute :)
I'm reading your blog from the UK where we are heading into a yucky cold winter :( so I am just getting out all my winter coats.
Congrats on the feature!
Hi Sushi
I am a sucker for over the knee socks at the moment. Perfect for the current weather! There's a cute frilly pair at Dotti at the moment. I think you could pull them off.
I have braces on atm too. I just had jaw surgery and will hopefully have them off early next year. It hurts when they tighten them, doesn't it?
Love Rin
I love the GIANT bow and the mustard yellow and navy blue combination. Definitely an outfit that is YOUnique. Corny, but the pun was just screaming to be made. :))

Lovely outfit! Your dress is very original, I like the colours and the shape.
Have a nice Sunday.
i love your style!

Moyra & The Velvet Bow - Thank you! x Sushi
Melissa Buchanan - Haha I remember last winter I was so disappointed because Adelaide was not very cold at all. Now this winter in Melbourne I'm pining for a bit of warmer weather and can't stand looking at the grey, sunless sky for one more day :( Glad you had a real winter in Adelaide this year and had a chance to wear all the cute winter clothes x Sushi
mandstar87 - Did you end up making it to the show? It was fun working there! x Sushi
Venn - I love these shoes so much! They go with everything, don't they? I might have to get them in tan too x Sushi
Jenny - Thanks, Jenny! Hope you come by again :)
Rin@SewinLove - Thanks for the tip, I haven't been to Dotti in ages so I'll try to stop by next time I'm in town :) You're very brave to get jaw surgery! I hope it all went smoothly. I found that having my braces tightened was a bit sore but not where near as bad as when you get them on x Sushi

Love your whole outfit.You are looking adorable in this outfit.
