What I wore:
Earrings: festive cockatoo and presents statement earrings
Necklace: thrifted bronze foil statement necklace
Dress: Anko Kmart short sleeved tiered linen dress in coco brown (Christmas present)
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff prune MAC with pom pom and tassel keychain
Why I wore it:
First wearing of this cute brown linen dress I got from mum for Christmas. I love the Kmart linen dresses, and this one was an obvious choice for a humid day by the river with some colleagues. We are trying to get together more regularly, it was so funny seeing how grown up all our kids are since we caught up last!
While it was a post-Christmas meet up in January I thought I could get away with giving my Christmas cockatoo earrings another wear, and I liked the colour they and the pink Rebecca Minkoff MAC bag added to the neutral linen dress. The bronze foil necklace has neutral beads similar to the dress, but I figured the bright bag and earrings added enough colour that a neutral necklace was a good choice.

Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB Camera Bag in almond
Why I wore it:
Although this dress isn't linen, it is a nice light viscose, and dries so quickly in the sun so is often my go-to choice for pool parties and days by the water. I wore this for a playdate with some friends down at the beach. I only got into the water a few times, but I appreciated having this dress on to cover up my shoulders with for some physical sunblock.Just like the outfit above, I went with brown and pink again. The almond Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag is a nice match for the brown in the print of the dress, and I liked the neutral colour with all the pastel pinks and peaches in the floral print. We ended up heading home for lunch as it had heated up so much it didn't feel like a good idea to be in the sun after just a few hours, but it was nice to have spent some time catching up in the morning.

I would never have thought to combine brown and pink, but it's a stunning combo! Although I do love my prints, the first dress is my favourite. That's such a great colour on you! xxx
