Now what I've been wearing. I've been enjoying red recently. My little red Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag is such a great pop of colour with an outfit, but sometimes I can't resist adding a red scarf as well.
What I wore:
Jacket: Asos Black by Markus Lupfer printed leather jacket
Scarf: Alexander McQueen red skull-print modal and cashmere-blend scarf
Shirt: Jeanswest 'Ruby' mixed print shirt
Jeans: Jeanswest 'spoylt' flared jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag in cherry red (on sale and on sale in brown!)
Why I wore it:
Another foggy start to the day, although it did warm up again later on. I was glad to have my leather jacket in the morning, even though I took it off in the afternoon when I went out with my sister.Had a busy morning running a couple of errands, so the Converse were a good shoe to pick as I dashed around. Perfect for our afternoon walk with my sister as well, enjoying the slightly warmer day.
Last worn: printed leather jacket, red skull scarf, mixed print shirt, flared jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag.
Other ways to wear: leather jacket and printed jeans, red skull scarf and grey dress, printed shirt and a LBD, flared jeans and a neon tee, Converse and a maxi skirt, two ways to wear a saddle bag.
Where to buy the Rebecca Minkoff Saddle Bag:
What I wore:
Sunnies: Ray-Ban new Wayfarers (30% off at Nordstrom!)
Scarf: red tartan scarfTop: Jeanswest 'Marina' stripe henley
Jeans: Jeanswest Bindi skinny 7/8 jeans in indigo luxe
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag in cherry red (on sale and on sale in blue!)
Why I wore it:
I was so incredibly excited when I wore this outfit! My friend was visiting Brisbane and I hadn't seen her in person for a few years so I was really looking forward to catching up and introducing the boys to her. We ended up just walking around Southbank which was really nice, as I hadn't had a good look since they redid the area. Toddler T was fascinated with the community garden. Again, I wore Converse as they are ideal for a lot of walking.The striped top and tartan scarf are a combination I thought up the night before when trying to plan out what to wear. I didn't have a lot of time in the morning so I'm pleased that they looked nice together and I didn't have to come up with something else at the last minute.
Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarers, red tartan scarf, striped henley, skinny jeans, Converse (above), Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag (above).
Other ways to wear: red tartan scarf in the office, striped henley and printed shorts, skinny jeans and boots, Converse for a weekend trip, Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag and a striped maxi skirt.

Mica, I don't know which outfit I like better. They both look so good. I love that saddle bag. I've never really taken notice, but now I want one. It's a great color! I love the mix of red, grey and black. Looks so good. What's really catching my eye is your scarf in the second picture. It is beautiful and goes great with that saddle bag.

I love the outfits and the red really suits you and adds a lot of character and colour to your look. Converse sneakers are so perfect for errands because they allow you to run errands comfortably and stylishly!

Yes Converse are the best, so comfortable and easy to wear :) I've been wearing mine a lot.
DeleteThe second outfit is my fave. I love both looks but the striped shirt and red bag combo got me! I love how red and stripes look together. It looks classy. :)

DeleteHow nice is Southbank!! So family friendly with lots to look at and plenty of playground action, the garden is so cool too. I want that saddle bag in fuchsia quite badly.
ReplyDeleteYes I bet you enjoyed it when you visited :) And get the bag, it's a great buy! ;)
DeleteCongratulations, you deserve to be featured :)

Both outfits are just great!
ReplyDeleteLove both of your looks because they make me happy that fall is coming soon!
ReplyDeleteYou can never go wrong with a pair of Converse for classic style and comfort. That second outfit looks great and how nice that you were able to catch up with your friend.
ReplyDeleteIt was so good catching up! Facebook and email are great for keeping in touch, but nothing compares to being in person.
DeleteI am seriously loving both outfits, they both look equally stylish and good on you. I really love the pop of red too, it really brightens up the looks.

I love every details about these two outfits! The color combinations, the little pops of red, the cute skull scarf, everything! Converse are indeed ideal for walkings, and I'm glad you had a great time with your friend, dear. <3

The Color Palette
You know I've always believed that red is the perfect colour for accents. when it comes to creating an accent in an outfit and adding that pop of colour or pattern (or both), red is a lovely option!
ReplyDeleteI love how you added red in both of these outfits. That red bag is really adorable. Moreover, those scarves are so perfect. I like the fact they're not only red but also printed...a touch of print and tartan pattern is so fun. Plus, it creates a cute subtle mix of prints.
You look very pretty and fresh in both of these looks. Well styled!

Thanks Ivana! I agree, red is such a fun accent colour - it really packs a punch :)
DeleteBoth gorgeous looks on you! Lovin' your scarves <3

Love the way you styled this!! So cute! xo

I will admit, red is one of those colors I tend to neglect. lol I think it's because of my hair? Growing up I was always taught red hair and red is a no no, but c'mon, it's 2016! Let's break all the fashion rules. (; I recently picked up a red striped long sleeve tee for the fall, so we will see how well I can rock some red. (;
ReplyDeleteYou will rock that top for sure! :D
DeleteI love those pops of red! Beautiful bag :-)
