Black Trench, Leona Edmiston Paris Print Wrap Dress, Rocco Bag | Black Knit, Pencil Skirt, Croc Print Scarf, Balenciaga City

Here's what I wore to work on Tuesday:

Away From Blue Aussie Blogger Leona Edmiston Paris Tassel print wrap dress and trench

Away From the Blue Alexander Wang Studded Rocco Dark Argon

Jacket: Temt Black trench coat 
Necklace: gift from DH
Dress: Leona Edmiston Paris tassel print wrap dress (new purchase)

Bracelets: the usual
BagAlexander Wang Rocco with gold hardware in dark argon


This dress is another Leona Edmiston sale purchase :) I really like the print, and as it's a long sleeved dress it was perfect to keep me warm. So many colours in it, today tried to pull out the green and blues with the Rocco bag. Also a better picture of the new addition to 'the usual' that bracelets I wear - my sister brought me this cute Tiffany bow bracelet back from her travels, she got it in NY. I'm blessed to have such a generous and thoughtful sister! :)


Last worn: Trench coat, patent flats, Rocco in dark argon. First time I've worn the dress as it's a recent purchase.

I made yet another matches fashion sale order, haha! I picked up two Marc by Marc Jacobs scarves I'd had on my wishlist for a while, and this scarf was one of them. They are massive and so soft, perfect :)

Wearing the black trench again as it was down into single digit temperatures today. Also had to layer a singlet under the knit as it was so cold! Had considered wearing pants, but didn't feel like wearing the heels required with them. Just wanted to be warm and comfortable, and work appropriate for a big meeting.


Linking up with Three-fer Thursday, Fashion and Faith today.

Last worn: Trench (see above), black knit, jacquard skirt, Rubi black flatsBalenciaga sapphire city.

  24. The new dress looks great on you! I always love seeing people pulling out a bit of colour when it's cold (I generally stick to boring hues of black).

    Love the second outfit for work - the skirt is gorgeous (I'm tempted to try and buy this for myself). I've just made my first Matches Fashion order.. kind of excited for it to arrive.
