Aussie Curves


This weeks Aussie Curve theme is "Vulnerable Side"... for me that is my arms, I hate having them naked, I feel very vulnerable when they are not covered. But this is why I am doing Aussie Curves, to take me out of my comfort zone :)

Meaning of "Vulnerable"

  • Capable of or susceptible to being wounded or hurt
  • Open to moral attack, criticism, temptation, etc
  • (of a place) open to assult


I believe this one looks much better with the arms covered up...



Today I am wearing:
Cardigan: 'Autograph'
Leggings: 'ASOS Curve'
Shoes: 'Vans' Not sure where, but know it was a shoe shop in Byron Bay
Headpiece: 'The Rainbow Shop'
Necklace: 'Markets'
Earrings: 'Gypsy Fair'

  1. Thanks for your courage in posting this week. I think you look beautiful in each photos. The voice in your head is the only difference. Thanks for participating in this week's challenge. Every post - including yours - takes power away from that little voice.xx

  3. I like your new blog :)

    My vulnerable area is my arms as well. I literally feel naked when they are exposed, which is only bedtime and after shower!

    Yours look nice, shapely and smooth actually. If mine were like yours I would totally go sleeveless.

    I used to think I needed to somehow learn to show them to accept them. Now I realise I can accept them but still not really like them.

  9. No no no Jackie - the cover up draws the eye up and down your torso which of course elongates you and looks great. But you would get the same affect with a vest or something sleeveless - your arms are just arms, nothing more nothing less and if I saw you on the street the things I would be thinking are 1. great leggings and 2. AWESOME shoes!
