Green and Blue Tee and Midi Skirt Outfits With Mimco Teal Bag

Wearing some midi skirts into the office with blue tees and my little teal Mimco cocoon bucket bag. I like the teal bag with these green and blue outfits, despite the different shades in both.

What I wore:

Earrings: Avocado Santa hat earrings
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Skirt: Kmart breeze green broderie anglaise midi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual plus jade bracelet
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal

Why I wore it:

This pale blue tee feels a littler more casual than a darker navy one, so I did consider adding a blazer to this. Despite the overcast start to the day it was still very humid though, so I decided not to add the extra layer. It was a quiet day in the office anyway.

I did like the paler blue tee against the bright green of the broderie skirt though. I often wear this skirt with blue tones. The blue Converse were a good match with the tee as well, although not exactly the same shade, they are very similar. I added a little more green with the jade bracelet as well. Wore a neutral navy statement necklace to try dress this up slightly for the office, and then my Mimco cocoon bucket bag that's been a real staple lately.

Last worn: pastel blue tee, navy beaded necklace, green broderie midi skirt, blue Converse, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag. First time I've worn the earrings as they were a gift.

Other ways to wear: pastel blue tee and shorts, green broderie midi skirt and Christmas tee, blue Converse and dress, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag and pencil skirt.

What I wore:

Earrings: DIY green clay Christmas tree earrings
Necklace: Starfish Project Hannah turquoise bead necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Sophie navy v-neck tee
Skirt: thrifted &Me blue linen button up midi skirt with pockets
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal

Why I wore it:

Again with the green and a lighter blue! This time around I wore this blue linen midi skirt, with a navy v-neck tee and my green beaded statement necklace for an extra pop of colour. I love wearing this green necklace with navy pieces in my wardrobe, I like the combination. And I really liked this linen midi skirt too. It does get creased up terribly easily, but it is also so light and perfect for a humid spring day. I like that it's also long enough to keep my legs covered up from the freezing aircon in the office.

Just like the midi skirt and tee outfit above, I wore my teal Mimco cocoon bucket bag with this outfit. I've been wearing it with almost everything lately, but I think the dark teal looks so good with blue.


Last worn: Christmas tree earrings, navy tee, green beaded necklace, linen midi skirt, white Converse, Mimco cocoon bag (above).

Other ways to wear: navy tee and jeans, linen midi skirt and printed tank, white Converse and dress, Mimco cocoon bag and blazer.

Bright Kmart Dresses and Black Rebecca Minkoff Unlined Tote Bag

Wearing two bright Kmart dresses with my black Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag for warm spring days recently in Brisbane.

What I wore:

Necklace:  thrifted blue tone flat bead statement necklace
Dress: thrifted Kmart short sleeve godet skirt linen blend dress in fuchsia
Belt: came with dress
Shoes: thrifted Anko Kmart black strappy sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff medium unlined tote in black with shellac studded dome hardware

Why I wore it:

This was a very humid day! We had a birthday party in the park to attend, followed by a sports event for my son in the afternoon. With the heat and being outside so much, I knew this Kmart linen dress would be perfect. I thrifted it a while back for $1, after I missed out when it sold out so quickly in store I was thrilled to find it in the opshop. It was perfect for a morning in the sun as it has good shoulder coverage, and it helped keep me cool all day.

I needed my big Rebecca Minkoff black unlined tote bag for water bottles as well as all my usual essentials, and then I added the big statement necklace for a little extra colour. Wore simple sandals to match the bag too, I love a little matchy-matchy! The sandals were an opshop find too.


Last worn: Kmart linen dress, blue statement necklace, strappy sandals, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag.

Other ways to wear: Kmart linen dress in winter, strappy sandals and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag and shorts.

What I wore:

Earrings: Kmart glitter gingerbread man earrings
Necklace: Jeanswest Taryn turquoise tassel bead necklace
Dress: Kmart Whsdch Red short sleeved tiered midi dress
Shoes: Les Tropeziennes Par M.Belarbi leopard print and gold leather sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff medium unlined tote in black with shellac studded dome hardware

Why I wore it:

Just had to wear this coral dress for our annual family Christmas photo! We had church in the morning, then our photos and then I did a little Christmas shopping with my son in the afternoon. It was really interesting trying to juggle two dogs for the family photo for the first time, with Cooper and Bonnie!

Added gold accessories to this dress with the turquoise tassel necklace and my glittery gingerbread earrings - I'm loving wearing all my Christmas earrings this year, I've got quite a collection now! Because it was a hot day I wore another pair of sandals, these leopard print ones were an opshop find and I liked that they had a bit of glitter to match the glittery earrings too.


Last worn: gingerbread earrings, tassel necklace, Kmart tiered midi dress, leopard print sandals, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag (above).

Other ways to wear: Kmart tiered midi dress for Christmas, leopard print sandals and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag and shorts.
