Bonsai Kitten

July 27, 2015 · 11 Comments

It is only fitting that my first post back in Australia features an Aussie designer – Bonsai Kitten, who are a Melbourne brand that specializes in pinup and retro clothing. Bonsai Kitten were very kind to send me this lovely and very warm top to get me ready for dressing for winter again, making the chilly foggy mornings we’ve been having a lot less harsh!

As you can probably tell, black and red is one of my favorite colour schemes lately. I think that this is because they are both strong, powerful colours and I always feel incredibly confident wearing them. This outfit in particular is my own take on the concept of power dressing – strong shoulders, defined lines and high heels, softened and made feminine with a bow on top and hearts on my toes.

This lovely pussybow top is an excellent winter wardrobe staple, made from a soft viscose-lycra mix it is warm for cold winter days, and extremely figure flattering with the way it compliments curves. The best thing of all is that the pussybow top comes in a wide range of colours and prints, making it an essential winter wardrobe piece that is easy to mix and match to create a variety of outfits – as well as coming in a short sleeve variety to wear in summer!

    I love the red/black combination. You look wonderful!

    By pure coincidence I have just posted on a bright orange/black combination.

    No. Stop it. This is too great. You are a mega babe! I'm love with that top, I might need one too (sorry). And I love red and black too, it's the most fabulous combination. I feel like it always says, 'Look at me! But don't approach me, I'm too hot for you!' πŸ˜‰
    (and I'm really sorry I make you buy all the TOBG tops, I'd stop, but then I'd have to stop buying them, and that would be sad… πŸ˜› )
