Here's what I wore to go to my new parents group:
Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers
Scarf: Seed Heritage Paisley print snood (new purchase)
Tee: Kmart plain black tee
Jeans: Sass and Bide 'Three Words' metallic gold jeans (new purchase)
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs pretty nylon Eliz-A-Baby bag
I feel I should explain this outfit! Yes, it's winter here in Queensland, but we had a bit of a mini-heatwave where the temperatures got up to early summer temps during the day. That's when I wore this outfit (about a week and a half ago), which explains the lack of coat and warm shoes. I thought that the snood paired really nicely with the jeans, although the studs on the snood are silver and the jeans are gold. This is the second pair of jeans that I bought on ebay a while back to celebrate fitting back into regular denim again and putting away my maternity jeans. First wearing of the snood since I bought it last month, need to wear it again soon to meet my goal of wearing everything I bought in July at least twice by the end of August.
Have always wanted a pair of metallic jeans! Couldn't resist when I saw these online. DH thinks that they are a bit much but I think they are just right. What do you think? They are actually cropped jeans, but as I'm so short they are just hitting above the ankle, quite a nice length on me. Means I don't need to go to the tailor to shorten them ;)
Last worn: Ray-Ban wayfarers, black tee, Havaianas, baby bag. First time I've worn the snood and jeans on the blog.
Here's what I wore to go out early in the morning with baby T:
Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers
Jacket: Asos Black by Markus Lupfer printed leather jacket
Tee: Atmos&Here 'Cara' mesh panel tee
Tank (under tee): Kmart lilac basic singlet
Jeans: Jeanswest 'shale' super skinny jeans
Shoes: Asos Cleo leather boots in black
Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs pretty nylon Eliz-A-Baby bag
The heat-wave was short lived, so back to winter temperatures, and winter clothing. It was fun while it lasted! Wore this outfit to go out early in the morning to see the child health nurse. This is only the second time I've worn the jeans on the blog, the first was early in the second trimester. After the baby bump expanded, I couldn't squeeze into them any more. Pleased I could wear them again now, so many months on!
This is also the second wearing of this new sheer stripe tee from my July purchases. It looks much nicer with the jeans in this photo than it did last time with the maxi skirt I think.
As it's the second wearing of the tee since I bought it, the final verdict is:
The oversize shape is great but the way it's cut might limit what I can wear it with. It looks awesome with jeans but I wasn't too impressed with the photo after pairing it with a maxi skirt first time I wore it. Will need to be conscious that I don't just fall into a denim rut with it. Although I like it, it's not as practical a purchase as I thought it would be - striped tee, sheer so I can layer different coloured tanks underneath each time - seemed like a winner! Need to focus more on different ways I could wear things before I buy them.
Last worn: Ray-ban (see above), printed leather jacket, lilac tank, stripe tee, skinny jeans, leather boots, baby bag (see above).

Looking fab. I love that metallicised denim! I bought a half metre of it in a coppery gold sheen. It's a really beautiful fabric. You look so well. Xx
ReplyDeleteIt is an awesome fabric! Would love to see what you do with it :)
Deletethe heat was short lived over here too. i LOVE those new jeans of yours!! what an awesome colour and fit, i think the length is just perfect (lucky thing!)

OMG love those metallic jeans and how you styled them, Mica. =) You look AWESOME so soon after the baby.
ReplyDeleteWow I must say that you really know how to wear your jeans really well! I love the first and second outfits, but I am really taken with the golden metallics of the first and how you styled it so wonderfully with that scarf! I really need to learn how to wear scarves more often and better (I always feel like they're coming undone or something when I wear them). And love the high boots in the second-- once autumn comes around, I'll be so excited to wear booties and boots once again! Thanks for visiting my blog earlier lovely-- hope we can keep in touch!

Love those metallic jeans, MIca! I also want to have a pair too but haven´t found the right one yet. :)

both of these outfits are lovely! the metallic pants are so much fun. most guys are always afraid of fashion that's a little bit edgy. i know my boyfriend is! haha. loving the rocker girl vibe of the second outfit. maybe you'd be able to wear the striped shirt with a fitted pencil skirt?
