Printed Maxi Dresses And Suede Maxi Edie Bag

Last time I wore these two printed maxi dresses, I shared them together in a post, and I'm doing that again today! Despite both being very different prints and colours, I thrifted them both for just $1 each and find myself reaching for them so much now with the warmer spring weather in Brisbane.

Both dresses I accessorised with my Rebecca Minkoff suede Maxi Edie bag, which is a nice neutral.


What I wore:





Necklace: Lovisa gold filigree heart pendant
Dress: thrifted JayJays white maxi dress
Shoesblack slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff quilted maxi Edie crossbody in Porcini brown suede


Why I wore it:

A simple dress outfit for a hot day working from home. I had to take a little break in the afternoon to see my son get an award at school. This Rebecca Minkoff maxi Edie bag was the perfect accessory as it has plenty of room for all of my essentials and I could fit my camera in there too for photos at the ceremony.

I decided to wear it just with the big chunky chain strap, and not use the crossbody strap (which is removable). I liked the way it looked but I think maybe I shouldn't have worn a rose gold necklace with this as the two different gold tones don't really compliment each other well with the necklace and bag. I did like them both separately though, just another necklace might have looked better worn all together.


Last worn: floral print maxi dress, rose gold heart necklace, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff suede maxi Edie.

Other ways to wearfloral print maxi dress with peach accessories, Rebecca Minkoff suede maxi Edie and stripes.






What I wore:




Jacket: Jeanswest Kitty denim biker jacket
Necklace: Kmart blue multi-colour beaded necklace
Dress: thrifted colourful geometric print maxi dress
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
BagRebecca Minkoff quilted maxi Edie crossbody in Porcini brown suede


Why I wore it:

Layered up this printed maxi dress with a denim jacket for a cooler spring morning - that quickly turned into a very warm day and had me discarding the jacket! I did like the light blue denim wash with the tri colour wooden necklace and the blue Converse, but what had started out as a cool overcast day quickly warmed up and I left the jacket in the car.

I went to the opshop with the kids looking for something for them to wear for an upcoming theme day at school, and to take advantage of the 'fill a bag of books for $3' sale at the opshop. Picked up some very cute clothes for the kids and ended up with two bags full of books for them and for me. A very productive shop!

Also had to run a few errands afterwards and picked up a special treat for lunch on the way home. Again I wore the Rebecca Minkoff suede Edie bag, although I didn't need to carry too much, it just saved me swapping out bags again!

Graphic Tees, Linen Shorts and Rebecca Minkoff Cupid Bag | Weekday Wear Link Up

More photos from our Sea World Resort staycation for today's Weekday Wear Link Up! I kept things simple and comfortable for our days exploring the theme parks, with linen shorts and graphic tees. the Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag was a good size for carrying everything we needed, yet small enough to leave in the lockers at the side of the rides when we rode.


What I wore:



Jacket: thrifted digital print no label kimono
Tee: Canada bear graphic tee
Shorts: thrifted Kmart turquoise linen shorts
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

Grabbed this opportunity to get an outfit pic after just coming off the Wild West Falls ride you see behind me, so I was a little drenched from the splashdown! It was lots of fun though, although not one of my son's favourite rides. Maybe when he's a bit older!

Although the blue in the graphic print on the tee doesn't match the turquoise of the linen shorts, I really liked the two together! And I added the printed cover up on top mostly for the extra sun protection, as we walked around the theme park all day. I liked those the little mustard triangles in the print complimented the yellows and oranges in the graphic of the tee.


Last worn: printed cover up, graphic tee, linen shorts, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid.

Other ways to wearprinted cover up and dress, graphic tee and jeans, linen shorts and white tee, Sketchers and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid and denim.






What I wore:




Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Tee: Kisschasy United Paper People 2023 tour band tee 
Shorts: thrifted Kmart cumin linen blend pull on shorts
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

Wore this for our trip down to the resort, and quickly realised once we were checked in and exploring the theme park that the denim jacket was a really silly idea for such a hot day! It had been a cooler morning when we had driven down the coast, but warmed up quickly, and the jacket spent most of the day in my bag as we jumped around between rides. I was thankful for it when we went out for dinner in the evening though and it had gotten cooler.

Again, the graphic print on this Kisschasy band tee doesn't really match the rust orange of the linen shorts, but I felt they were close enough together that this outfit worked. Especially with the dark navy Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag matching the black background on the tee nicely!

Tiered Printed Sundresses, Sneakers and Denim Jacket

Denim jackets and sundresses for spring again! Paired with sneakers, this is a staple Spring outfit formula for me.


What I wore:




Jacket: Jeanswest Kitty denim biker jacket
Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace plus thrifted yellow beaded statement pendant long necklace
Dress: thrifted peach and white floral print tiered sundress
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip 


Why I wore it:

This was a fun day! Family lunch with my parents and a few errands. Dressed up for a relaxed lunch with this pretty printed dress and added the denim moto jacket on top to keep me warm in the air-con inside, it was definitely warm enough outside that I didn't need it outdoors!

Thought the little yellow necklace would be nice with the pastel peach print on the dress, and the little yellow mini 5-zip bag was then an obvious matchy-matchy choice. It's just a shame my hair obscures the second necklace I tried layering with!

I liked how the blue of these Converse complimented the pale blue wash of the denim moto jacket too.


Last worn: denim moto jacket, Tiffany heart necklace, yellow pendant necklace, tiered sundress, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip.

Other ways to weardenim moto jacket and leopard skirt, tiered sundress worn two ways, blue Converse and midi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip and printed culottes.






What I wore:



Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
NecklaceTiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Dress: Kmart Aztec print tiered little black dress
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual


Why I wore it:

Wore this when we went out for dinner during out little staycation at Seaworld resort. After running around at the theme park all day it was nice to get dressed up a little for dinner. Even if I didn't bring a clutch or any different shoes and just threw on my denim jacket to add a little warmth. I hadn't needed the jacket during the day, but I was glad I'd brought it in the evening when we went to dinner! And no-one noticed the casual sneakers once we were seated at the table. 

My wallet worked well as a clutch to hold the essential cards and our room key. It would have been nice to have brought the right accessories and been a little more dressed up, but I was comfortable enough and it was nice to travel light and not over-pack for once. We had a garden view room, as you can see off the balcony, and we nearly missed our dinner reservation as the boys were having so much fun playing in the maze you see behind me!


Last worn: denim jacket, Tiffany necklace, black tiered sundress, Sketchers sneakers.

Other ways to weardenim jacket worn 30 ways, black tiered sundress under a knotted knit, Sketchers sneakers and jeans.

Spring Skirts And Denim jackets With Neon Pink Bag

Two denim jackets and skirts outfits for spring, with neutral tees and some very bright accessories. My neon pink mini MAC really adds a pop to an outfit!


What I wore:




Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace: thrifted chartreuse necklace
Tee: thrifted black scoop neck H&M tee
Skirt: Target animal print ruffle hem mini skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual plus Roie Designs black leather Swarovski beaded wrap bracelet
BagRebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC


Why I wore it:

Enjoying the warm weekend weather and running a couple of errands with the kids. We had a packed day with errands to run and a kid's birthday party in the afternoon. As it was a warmer day, I got this cute little skirt out that I picked up in the end of summer sales - was great to give it a wear again!

I kept it simple with the black tee and denim jacket, but then added a lot of fun colour with the chartreuse necklace and the neon pink mini MAC bag, as I didn't have to carry more than the essentials.


Last worn: denim jacket, black tee, statement necklace, wrap bracelet, animal print skirt, Converse, neon pink mini MAC.

What I wore:




JacketCotton On girlfriend denim jacket in whitehaven
Earrings: neutral clay disc earrings (new purchase, charity fundraiser)
Necklace: terrazzo and wood rose gold bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton on grey tunic tee
Skirt: thrifted Kmart rust button up linen blend skirt
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC


Why I wore it:

I thrifted this skirt last summer and feel I didn't get to give it a lot of wear before the weather cooled off. This is only it's forth wear and I'm not sure why, I love the button detail and the paperbag waist. I kept it simple (like all the other times I've worn this skirt) with a neutral tee - this grey tunic is a good basic. I added the white denim jacket as it was a little chilly on the school run that morning, although I didn't need it in the afternoon when we headed to the park after school. With the neutral white Adidas Superstar sneakers and the neutral necklace, the Rebecca Minkoff neon mini MAC bag was again a fun pop of pink. I wasn't sure about the rust and neon pink together but I'm glad I gave it a go as I really liked it.

As all I had to do was the school run, working from home, and then a couple errands and a park playdate in the afternoon, the little mini MAC was all I needed to carry.


Last worn: white denim jacket, grey tunic tee, statement necklace, linen skirt, Adidas Superstar, Rebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC (above). First time I've shared the earrings on the blog as they are a recent purchase.

Sundresses and Denim Jackets With Damier Azur Neverfull | Weekday Wear Link Up

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up, sharing two times I wore the classic spring combination of a tiered sundress and denim jacket with sneakers, for working from home and school run days. I'm really enjoying Brisbane's spring weather at the moment!


What I wore:





Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace: thrifted pastel pink and wooden hexagon bead necklace
Dress: thrifted peach and white floral print tiered sundress
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
BagLouis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull


Why I wore it:

How gorgeous is this dress? It is a bit loose on me, but for $1 at the opshop I had to get it. The tag was cut out but I'm fairly sure it's one of the Kmart sundresses which I already have a couple of. I like the pastel palm print, the peach is so nice against the white background. I matched the white with the white Converse and the checks on the Louis Vuitton damier azur Neverfull tote.

Needed a big bag for a couple of errands as we had to take Cooper to the vets after the school run, the Neverfull was perfect.

I do think that the necklace (also an opshop find!) kind of got lost with the print of the dress, so I'll need to try a bolder coloured one next time I wear this dress.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted Eb&Ive turquoise wooden bead multi strand statement necklace
Dress: Kmart strappy tiered sundress in watercolour blue and blush print
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
BagLouis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull


Why I wore it:

Since I liked the outfit above so much, I wore the formula again the next week, with another tiered sundress from my collection. I scored this one in the Kmart clearance for just $2, and it's a firm favourite. Surprisingly, I haven't worn this denim moto jacket with it before, it's such an obvious combination. I liked the paler denim with the darker blue of the background of the dress, and I picked my turquoise beaded necklace to add some more lightness too. 

I had a couple errands to run after the school drop off, then worked from home before picking the kids up in the afternoon. Didn't really need the extra space of the Louis Vuitton Neverfull, but I thought the colours went nicely with this outfit so didn't bother changing to another bag.

Two Ways To Layer A Colourful Spaghetti Strap Maxi Dress For Winter

I bought this awesome, colourful geometric print maxi dress at the opshop for just $1. A spaghetti strap maxi dress isn't something I expect to get a lot of wear from in winter, but since spring is around the corner I know this will get worn more often. And before the weather heats up here in Brisbane, I was able to layer it up a little for the last month of winter, on some warmer days.


What I wore:


rebecca minkoff cupid satchel and geometric print maxi dress | awayfromblue


Earrings: thrifted red dinosaur skeleton earrings
Necklace: rose gold and turquoise beaded necklace
Jumper: thrifted Valleygirl blue knit jumper
Dress: thrifted colourful geometric print maxi dress
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

We had a fun day out at Australia Zoo with the family, so I needed some comfortable sneakers for all the driving and walking. I also needed to be able to wear my knee brace to support my knee so that ruled out jeans. Decided it was the perfect time to give this maxi dress a wear! Since it was a little chilly, especially in the morning, I added this soft knit over the top. It's a bit oversized so I had to knot it to get it to sit nicely, but I loved the cobalt against the mix of colours in the print of the dress.

As always, wore my Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag. It is perfect for the essentials plus some snacks and water bottles that you need for a day out at the zoo with the kids.

Top: Kmart teal tank (new purchase)
Dress: thrifted colourful geometric print maxi dress
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

The next opportunity I took to wear this dress was for a school run and working from home day, with a quick errand after picking up the kids in the afternoon. Again I layered over the top of this dress, with this teal tank this time, and the denim moto jacket for an extra layer of warmth as it was a chilly morning. It warmed up nicely though and when I went back to school to pick up the kids, the denim jacket was no longer needed.

With the mix of colours in the geometric print of this maxi dress, I felt the teal tank complimented all the different shades well. I thought that the blue and green in the chunky necklace tied in the colours nicely, especially when worn with the denim jacket. I really liked this outfit!

Printed Dresses With Boots and Rebecca Minkoff Cupid Bag

Getting my printed dresses out again for winter. While both these dresses have long sleeves, leggings and boots were a definite must have as they are quite light. I also had a slip on under each dress for extra warmth, and of course a jacket on top to keep warm.


What I wore:


thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Jacket: Jeanswest navy suede moto zip jacket
Dress: Jeanswest 'Chelsea' printed dress
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

This navy suede jacket I got for Christmas I thought would be a lovely pairing with this navy tile print dress, but the jacket looks almost black here. It certainly kept me cosy in the cold morning though! I wore this for the school run and a quick errand, before working from home and picking up the kids again in the afternoon.

With the dark navy Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag, and the black ankle boots too, this felt like a really dark outfit, even with the white on the print of the dress. Good for this overcast winter day in Brisbane!

DressZaful floral print ruffle hem dress in ginger
ShoesAsos Cleo leather boots in tan
Bracelets: the usual plus Mimco gunmetal twisted bracelet stack
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

Unlike the outfit above, this is a lot more colourful! This dress hasn't been worn in a while so was definitely due a repeat wear, and I really like it with leggings underneath. I had to double up the sleeves a bit of get this denim jacket on top - the dress has long statement sleeves, that is sadly hidden by the jacket, but I needed the extra warmth from the jacket, especially on the cold morning.

With the comfortable and cosy tall leather boots as well, this was a great outfit for family fun day at church. The kids had a blast enjoying all the yummy food, playing games, and bouncing around on the jumping castle after the service. It was very difficult to pull them away to head home!

The Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag, that I still haven't stopped using and loving since I thrifted it, was perfect for storing all my essentials plus our water bottles for the day.

Magnificent 8 In Maxi Skirts And Dresses

This quarter's Magnificent 8 themed post is maxi skirts and dresses, which I have no shortage of in my wardrobe! Despite it being winter here in Brisbane, I still get my maxi skirts out now and then. While they are worn most often in the warmer weather, I can easily layer them up for our snow free winters.


What I wore:


Balenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India


Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace: thrifted gold large double circle necklace
TeeAtmos&Here 3/4 sleeve stripe tee in berry white
Skirtthrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
ShoesAtmos&Here tan Lola leather ankle boots
Bracelets: the usual
BagBalenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India


Why I wore it:

I did actually wear this back in June, when it was a little warmer as it was just the first month of winter. I really like this lightweight maxi skirt on hot days, but in cooler weather it needs a few more layers. Ankle boots were a must! With the gorgeous ochre shade of the skirt, I've enjoyed wearing different colours of burgundy with it lately, so this white and burgundy striped long sleeved tee was the perfect accompaniment with it, and the denim jacket was a good layer. I definitely needed the jacket for the cooler weather of the school run, but in the afternoon when we had an appointment after school, I was able to go without the jacket and still be warm enough.

It had been a while since I'd worn this cute turquoise Balenciaga first bag, so I got it out again. I love how it looks with the orange skirt, and with only the school run, working from home, and an appointment in the afternoon, I didn't need to carry much so this was a great size.

What I wore:


Balenciaga part time in black 2010 with SGH


JacketWitchery black belted moto leather jacket
ScarfJeanswest Lucille golden yellow scarf
Tee: Jeanswest Ruby frill sleeve Ric Rac detailed tee in deep iris
Skirt: thrifted pinstripe maxi skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
BagBalenciaga part time in black 2010 with SGH


Why I wore it:

This was a much colder day than the one above, so warmer layers were needed! Instead of ankle boots, I went with Converse under my maxi skirt, as I had a little break during my work from home day to go cheer my son on in his sporting event. Needed comfortable shoes for a lot of standing around. With the navy tee, grey striped maxi skirt, and the black leather jacket, this outfit was cosy, but a bit dull for cheering on my son. I added the mustard scarf, as yellow and blue always look so good together and I thought it would help my son spot me in the crowd! It worked well for that.

Unlike the outfit above, I went with a classic black bag this time, my Balenciaga part time bag with giant silver hardware. I had my camera as well as a water bottle. It was quite a windy day so I appreciated the thick leather jacket keeping me warm as I stood on the side lines. And when I went back to working from home, the jersey maxi skirt and navy tee were such a comfortable outfit.
