My favourite brands
I have always enjoyed fashion, I love simple staples that are versatile and able to be mixed and matched.
I do value comfort as well as looks when choosing outfits.
When I'm not at work, I am very meticulous with what I wear, I like to look and feel good too.
I wear runners, shorts and a polo shirt to work every day so out of work I tend to wear a lot of dresses and skirts.
I wear a 16/18 in dresses, I wear a 14/16 in the lower half and a 16/18 on the top half.

Milou Dress House: Online and In store- Flinders Street, Townsville:

I love all the gingham as well as different length dresses.
I recently bought the Jade Blue Dress that I am obsessed with, I prefer to wear it off the shoulder.
Little Party Dress: Online from Sydney
I used to love little party dress and order from every single release because I loved all the bright colours! I still do love it but I feel my style is changing at the moment so I prefer a more understated colour or pattern. Little Party Dress have some great basics as well, I have a simple black shirt that is a staple in my wardrobe and some skirts and shorts that I love to wear but my choice of colour and pattern now is very different.
My favourite cut is the Bam dress (I have 3 in different colours), I love the Folded Fauna print as well as the Matilda Gingham dress in both orange and purple.
Chain stores-
City Chic:
As a girl who sits on the bigger side of the spectrum, I do like going into City Chic as they always have some nice options for a more dressy outfit as well as some staples as well. I don't always like the length of some of the dress, It can sit on that awkward spot on me between a mini and a midi so I will sometimes get them hemmed up
Sportsgirl:
Always loved sports girl! Some great pieces that are a little bit more alternative, I love the more rocker vibe of the T-shirts, the range of staples and skirts. I used to have 2 shift dresses that had a real 70's vibe to them that I was absolutely in love with. I have a denim jacket with a grey hood and arms that I actually bought 2 of because I love it so much!
Just Jeans:
I swear I've kept them in business over the years. They stock my favourite shorts- Amaze Girlfriend cut that I wear for work and casually as well. At one point I had 6 pairs- that's how much I love them! They also have some nice dresses, always with a more floral vibe.
Budget Friendly Options-
Best and Less:
Great options for shorts that are very budget friendly
Shein:
Not top quality but always have some nice dress prints and styles.
