What I wore:
Scarf: Marc by Marc Jacobs bright blue stole
Tee: Oscar's Law 'Break the puppy trade' tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Bindi skinny 7/8 jeans in indigo luxe
Shoes: Asos leather Chelsea boots in tan
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather
Why I wore it:
The style challenge for the day was 'put a scarf on it'. Easy to do with the cold weather making me want to layer!I thought this was going to be a quiet and relaxing day, but after getting home in the morning and settling down to feed baby boy I checked my phone as I knew I had a doctor's appointment coming up that week. Only to find that my appointment was in 15 minutes! Thankfully the traffic lights were in my favour and we were only 5 minutes late for my appointment, and as the doctor was running a little late I was able to sit there in the waiting room and feed the now very cranky baby boy.
Last worn: grey cardigan, cobalt scarf, graphic tee, Prima skinny jeans, Chelsea boots, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC.
Other ways to wear: wool cardigan and a skirt, cobalt scarf and stripes, graphic tee and a maxi skirt, skinny jeans and a kimono, Chelsea boots and a chambray dress, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC and floral print.
More long cardigans under $50:
What I wore:
Jacket: Izabel London striped waterfall cardigan (C/O)
Scarf: star print pashminaTee: Atmos&Here rolled sleeve oversized tee in wine (similar in black or grey)
Jeans: Jeanswest prima denim super skinny jeans in absolute black
Shoes: Asos leather Chelsea boots in tan
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather
Why I wore it:
Another cosy cardi, skinny jeans, ankle boots and scarf outfit! Needed something simple as we had to stop by the shops on our way to playgroup that morning and I was in a bit of a rush. While the tan ankle boots don't look too bad I think black ones would have been better.The style challenge for the day was to wear your favourite coat. I wore this a lot last winter, although this was it's first wearing this year. It's a "coatigan" which is a word that makes me giggle ever since I first heard it. A cosy cardi that's thick and warm enough to be a coat! It came in helpful as it was such a windy day.
Last worn: black and white cardigan, star print scarf, maroon tee, black prima skinny jeans, Chelsea ankle boots (above), Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC (above).
Other ways to wear: black and white cardigan and a maxi skirt, star print scarf and floral tank, maroon tee and metallic gold jeans, black prima skinny jeans and a printed cami, Chelsea ankle boots and a blue dress, aquamarine mini MAC bag and red jeans.

The littl cross body bags must be extremely handy when you have to carry so much with two babies :) I like how you always pair colourful accessories with your casual outfits!
ReplyDeleteI do love my bright accessories! :) And yes cross body bags have been an essential lately! :)
DeleteIt's always nice to have a couple of coats that you can style over and over again for years to come. What a warm looking coat!

Your skinny jeans and boots have me beckoning UK winter already - I miss teaming those two together, they always look so chic. I've also chuckle at the 'coatigan' name - it is an amazing idea though! x

Yes long cardis are the best for cold weather :)
DeleteI have OTK boots and normal height boots but no ankle boots. I use to have one pair but I find it to look funny on me and I gave it away. I adore that stripe cardigan in the second outfit, actually I'm a huge fan of stripe anything!

Hope you can find the perfect ankle boots for you soon! I really like mine :)

Oh that doctors appointment scenario is my worst nightmare, and I don't even have a baby to worry about! Glad it all worked out in the end. That bag is so pretty, and it seems to go with everything!
ReplyDeleteYes I'm so glad we made it in the end, gaah! haha. Happens to us all at one time I think.
DeleteI love that coatigan - what a great idea! I'm desperate for some tan boots - yours look fab!
ReplyDeleteThese were a great sale buy last winter! :)
DeleteI heard it's officially winter in Australia... I wish Chicago winters looked "as good." Lol!!
ReplyDeleteHey, mama, give yourself a break for almost missing an appointment. You have a new little one to keep you plenty busy. Glad you both made it in time and hope you two are well!!

You look great in both outfits:) I've been meaning to knit a long cardigan but just haven't found the time. After seeing yours, it's more of an incentive now! And LOL on your doctor's appt.:D That's happened to me more times than I care to remember.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, you should definitely knit one, that would be awesome! :)
DeleteLovely look! As always that purse is to die for <3

Ah, what is worse than realized you've totally forgotten about an appointment and having to rush around to make it! but I'm glad it worked out and you were too late and too stressed. Love your long chunky cardigan - it looks so cozy.
ReplyDeleteChic on the Cheap
Love that bag!
ReplyDeleteGreat that you still made the appointment :)
I can imagine how stressed out I would be for a minute haha.

Love your coatigan! And scarves are so much fun - such a great way to change up an outfit!
ReplyDeleteNow I'm looking forward to winter over here ;) I love long cardigans like this! And ankle boots are always a must for the cold season.
ReplyDeleteChristina ♥ https://caliope-couture.com
The long cardigans look perfect for so many occasions. I think I could do with a couple.
ReplyDeleteYes they are so cosy, a great buy! :)
DeleteLoving the coat, I can see why it would be your favourite! :) I think it's gorgeous and versatile, it looks lovely on you! x Also, you know I'm a fan of that cute bag, the colour is so vibrant and goes well with so many outfits! Thanks for sharing x x

As much as I love the sun, it's so cosy to bundle up in scarfs and cardi's just as you've done here! There's something really lovely about layering up!

Yes it's nice after all the heatwaves we had for it to be cool enough to layer :)

Coatigan is a funny word ;) Your's looks very chic and cozy at the same time and I can see how it would be a very versatile piece for you. Great job on the challenge Mica!
ReplyDeleteI love the comfy, long cardigan style! I always wonder how winters in australia is like; my cousins live there and it's so strange when we meet up in Hong Kong in December and they just came from summer and I come from winter!
ReplyDeleteMacarons and Mischief
It's pretty mild here in Brisbane, we don't get snow. Still feels cold to me though! :)
DeleteOoh I love that cardigan in your second look--it looks so warm and comfy!! Good thing you checked your phone when you did and made it to your appointment--that's so frustrating when you think something is later in the week when it is.
ReplyDeleteYes I'm lucky I checked or I would have forgotten entirely!
DeleteLove love love fhe graphic tee in outfit 1... Kinda makes you a badass mommy :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking up with Weekend Wear

"Coatigan." I mean I'm giggling too. haha Anyway, now that it's roasting here, I miss ankle boots. lol You're giving me so many fun fall vibes. Really, I went shopping last week and came home with two fall sweaters. What? lol
ReplyDeletehaha it is good to buy off-season though, you get the best sales that way ;)
DeleteThank you all for your comments :)
ReplyDeleteLove the ankle booties! You are making me wish the weather was cooler so I could take out all my layers!
