Rust Tees, Black Knits, Skinny Jeans and Converse

Layering up some rust toned tees for Brisbane's winter with black jeans, Converse and cosy black knits recently.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Dotti black cocoon cape cardigan
Scarf: Alexander McQueen modal and cashmere skull scarf
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed red clay
Jeans: thrifted Cotton On The High Rise Skinny Jean black coated denim
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe Marcie medium shoulder bag in nut

Why I wore it:

I love the subtle different these coated denim jeans make to an outfit, I'm glad I thrifted them a while back to give the look a try. With a nice cosy cardigan is my favourite way to wear them, and this black cardigan is also an opshop find. With the black jeans, black Converse and black cardigan, I wanted to add a little more colour to this outfit. This washed clay tee is a lovely rust tone that had me pulling out my taupe Alexander McQueen skull scarf and nut brown Chloe Marcie bag to complement the colour.

This was a nice comfortable jeans and tee outfit for working from home, I wasn't planning on having too busy of a day, until I got the message from school in the morning reminding us it was a themed day. I ended up scrabbling to get to the shops and buy the kids something appropriate before drop off! Thankfully they made it to school just before the bell rung. Definitely an eventful morning! Luckily the rest of the day, working from home, didn't have any big surprises!


Last worn: black cocoon cardigan, Alexander McQueen skull scarf, rust tee, coated skinny jeans, Converse, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wear: black cocoon cardigan and printed jeans, skull scarf and dress, rust tee and shorts, coated skinny jeans and jumper, Converse and skirt, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag and dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Necklace: Roie Designs coral beaded tassel necklace
Tee: Anko Kmart short sleeve slub v-neck tee in copper 
Jeans: Nobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

This tee is a similar rust colour to the one above, although a different saturation so this one is a lot more vibrant. I liked the peachy necklace with this, but I kept everything else black so the tee was the only colour in my outfit. It was a quiet weekend day and I didn't have much on other than a couple of errands, after dropping my son off at a playdate and then picking him up later in the afternoon.

I only needed the essentials so this Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag fit everything I needed for the day.
