Midi Skirts, Grey Tees and Aqua Mini MAC Bag

The first few weeks back in the office in January before school went back were pretty quiet, so I took the opportunity to wear some casual grey tees to work.

What I wore:

Earring: MIMCO fleur stud silver earrings
Necklace: thrifted gold and cream multi strand pearl necklace
Tee: Anko Kmart short sleeve slub v-neck tee in lead grey
Skirt: no label cream and brown floral print midi skirt
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus Mimco urban bracelet
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather 

Why I wore it:

I got this pretty midi skirt for Christmas from one of our pre-Christmas shopping trips, this one is from the opshop shopping day before Christmas. I found it online and so I'm pretty sure it's from Kmart. It's a lovely neutral brown print, so I wore it with more neutrals with the grey tee. To try dress it up a little more for a day in the office I added this statement necklace, it's so fun with all the faux pearl beads. I could have added a blazer to this to make it even more formal, but the day was too hot to want to layer.

I wore my white Converse to be a little matchy-matchy with the skirt, but decided to wear my little aquamarine mini MAC bag for a pop of colour. It's so nice against greys, and other neutrals like I'm wearing in this outfit, and carries all the essentials I need for work as I carry my laptop in my company issued laptop bag.


Last worn: Mimco silver earrings, beaded statement necklace, white Converse, aquamarine mini MAC bag. First time I've worn the tee and the skirt as they were a Christmas present.

Other ways to wear: white Converse and shorts, aquamarine mini MAC bag and denim skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: aquamarine mini MAC bag in second trimester.

What I wore:

Earrings: Target solid silver hoops
Necklace: thrifted mint silicone statement necklace
Tee: Atmos&Here charcoal grey v neck tee
Skirt: thrifted &Me blue linen button up midi skirt with pockets
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual plus Mimco urban bracelet
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather 

Why I wore it:

Even though this is the same outfit formula as the one above, this outfit felt much more casual. Not sure it it was the softer tee or the linen skirt, or a combination. I still loved this outfit for a quiet day in the office though. There were so few people there, most working from home or still on leave, so I smashed through a lot of work and so many meetings at my desk.

It's the first time I've worn this aquamarine mini MAC bag with this silicone necklace and it definitely won't be the last, they pair so nicely together. I wore my blue Converse as well for more matchy-matchy with the blue linen midi skirt.
