Trench, LBD, Tan Flats, Alexander Wang Rocco | Wildfox Skeleton Tee, Skinnies, Rebecca Minkoff MAC

Here's what I wore to work on Monday:
away from blue blog workwear LBD trench coat MbMj flats Rocco bag

Away from the blue accessories alexander wang rocco in dark argon

Jacket: Barkins beige trench coat 
Dress: Jeanswest tucked ponte black dress (New purchase)
Belt: Black embossed belt that came with the dress
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs Logo Plaque flats in camel
Bracelets: the usual
BagAlexander Wang Rocco with gold hardware in dark argon


This dress was another of my Jeanswest sale purchase from May. I knew it would be perfect for work, it was another one of those pieces I'd had my eye on in store but was patiently waiting for it to go on sale. I don't like paying full price for things ;) And since the temperature has dropped, the trench coat returns. It will be making frequent appearances this winter!


Last worn: trench coat, tan flats, Alexander Wang Rocco bag. First time I've worn the dress on the blog as it's a recent purchase.

Here's what I wore to spend the day with my mum today:

away from blue wildfox skeleton tee skinny jeans RM MAC

Sunnies: gifted Cotton On 'Kirsten sunnie' in yellow
TopWildfox Skeleton black tee with long sleeves (with Kmart black tank layered underneath)
Jeans: Jeanswest blue skinny jeans
Shoes: gifted black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff MAC bag in deep purple


Greatly amused a lady who walked past Cooper and I today as she exclaimed "even the dog has a skeleton!". I hadn't noticed, but Cooper and I coordinated with our matching long sleeve skeleton bones tees.

Had the day off work today to relax and spend time with my mum. We headed up north to the beach to relax and chat, it was a great day. Of course it was windy on the beach, so crazy hair for photos, haha! I figured I'd put up with beach hair to have the 'excitement' of a different background ;)

Although it's winter, I'm still gonna be a real Queenslander and wear my thongs (flip flops) as long as possible! Nice casual outfit for walking along the beach and doing a spot of shopping, relaxed outfit for a relaxed day.

  11. How cute that you and Cooper match! I love the skeleton top you're rocking :)
    Oh, and Senior photos are a traditional sort of thing for high schoolers in the States to get done when they graduate. Photographers charge high prices to get fancy photos of the Seniors that they can then send out to others and let them know they're graduating.

  20. What a lovely trench with that dress! They both go perfectly with your Rocco. I love that purse! And for your second outfit, I think that skeleton tee is fantastic! It's probably the geeky bio major in me.

  27. Haha it's so cute that Cooper and you accidentally coordinated! Who would say know to a skull themed outfit? Even Cooper couldn't lol!
    I'd wear open toes sandals all year round if I could! I personally hate socks but now I relocated to this bloody northwest of the US, I'm covered up pretty well up to 6 months of the year (sigh)!

    1. I hope it's a really long warm summer so you can stay in sandals for a while! :)

      And haha yes being bigger I always win when it comes to dressing Cooper! Sadly I only have this one skeleton top so we won't match often! :)
