I don’t follow fashion trends. I wear what I like and what suits me. If I like what’s ‘in’ then I guess I’m in. If not, then I’ll just be a out-of-date me. Black and Brown? It’s so 2009 apparently.
My husband and I had three children while we students (not sure how we survived, but we did), so I know all about shopping on a budget. To me, being stylish is making the best with what I have.
Skivvy: Ezibuy
Cardigan: Fashion Fair (wore it here and here)
Belt: Fashion Fair
Boots: Half price from Mika Boutique on Main Street Caloundra. Also worn here and here.
Necklace: Diva
My Tip: Don’t follow fashion. Wear what you like. Shop within your means. Be you.
What I Love Most: The necklace. It’s like wearing a little bit of happiness around my neck.

I love that you do your own thing and love it! For what its worth I think you look great but I’m glad that it doesn’t matter for you
That’s a lovley sum up Robyn… Thank you.
I couldnt agree more kelly, i am all for wear what you feel comfortable in. with me thats always jeans and a long shirt, im a big believer in not wearing what everyone else wears, or fitting in with the “trends”. i think you look great and you always dress very nice. your a busy mum, i take my hate off to you! God bless xo
Yep, be the jeans long shirt mum… Be you xx
You are looking HOT! love that you have found your own style and are comfortable with it…you are more than a fun mum – you are the MUM!
HA! Thanks Naomi…
Cute necklace! You could wear that with so many outfits. Gotta love diva!
Yep, loving Diva and necklaces that go with everything.
I love the necklace but don’t know if I could pull it off – maybe I’m a bit shy in my fashion choices??! LOL
I think it would suit everyone. I just make sure what I’m wearing is fairly plain so it’s not so full on.
Kelly, I’m beginning to think that you could make a hession sack look stylish…I envy your flare.
hehe, what a cute thing to say…
Know ALL about being students with 3 kids haha!! Bargain hunting becomes second nature. LOVE ebay (once got a Cooper St top for $8!!), and my Mum just knows that every Winter & Christmas I want clothes hehe. It’s a given
Yep, you would! But it can be done… and you show that you can shop on a budget and look AMAZING still.
**Whoops, I meant Birthday & Christmas. Well, my birthday is in Winter, so that’s when I get my winter clothes
I think fashion trends are created by those in a position to make money from the clothes people have to buy. Combinations such as yours are classic and timeless. How can something like that date in a year? We’re not talking about assymetrical toga tops or something. It’s ridiculous. Colin
Absolutely Colin. It ridiculouos and I don’t buy into it.
