Clear Heels in Bulli


Missguided knitwearIt's finally winter down under and nothing can stop us from having a picnic. Honestly folks, a picnic is an almost forgotten fun event these days. I know, my boys would want nothing to do outside the house, with the crazy fun stuff they can do with online gaming who needs the outdoors.

But picnic can be one of those activities that family and friends can bond with awesome views of nature to enjoy. It can be cheap too if you bother to pack everything from nibblies to lunch. Though it doesn't come cheap with the boys as they always seem to find a café nearby and grab anything they fancy.

Bulli waves
Watching the waves break. How amazing, isn't it?
 So on a long weekend we went down south and headed to Bulli, a northern suburb of Wollongong. With its panoramic views of the ocean on one side and mountain on the other nobody could ask for a better location.

 I wore this grey knitted lace-up top I got from Missguided and burgundy skinny jeans from Forever 21. And to add glam to the outfit, I sealed it with grey patent boots with clear heels from Perspex.
  Burgundy leather jacket

This buttery smooth leather jacket gives an instant chill factor and I thank my sis-in-law for this burgundy outerwearI admit I don't like cold weather but it's the only time I can wear leather jacket so I welcome this season with an open heart and expect for more leather jackets to come :)

  12. I'm so glad you had a picnic with your kids, there's nothing like it. Even though it was cold outside, that was great that you went to the ocean with your boys. You look so stylish in this outfit, and those boots are fabulous. The ocean is beautiful, and I long to see it sometimes. It's funny that it's winter there, and here we're right in the middle of a warm summer.

    Have a terrific week, Mercy.

  42. Omg your boots are so cool!!! I'm drooling over them! I think your whole outfit looks amazing and the burgundy pants add some edgyness. By the way, picnics with a view are indeed the easiest and quickest way to disconnect for a while, right?
