Lilac Tee, Jeans, Converse, RM MAC | Leona Edmiston Blanche Dress, Marc by Marc Jacobs Bag and Flats

Here's what I wore on Sunday:

Away From The Blue walk to King Island outfit what I wore jeans converse

Sunnies: gifted Cotton On 'Risky Business' sunglasses in sky blue
Necklace: gift from DH
Tee: Spectrum basic v-neck tee in washed lilac (New purchase)
Jeans: Sass and Bide strayed misfits skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual plus gifted purple Salvatore Ferragamo 'Vara' leather bow bracelet, gifted blue Eiffel Tower bracelet on other arm.
BagRebecca Minkoff MAC bag in deep purple



DH and I got a free lovely sunny day at last, so we headed down to the beach with Cooper. We walked out to King Island at low tide. You can see a pic of it I took during high tide on instagram. Although Cooper wasn't allowed on the island (it's a nature reserve) it was a fun walk out there, and he got to have a few paddles along the way. Sand covered little monster had bath time as soon as he got home though, haha.

Just a nice casual comfortable outfit for walking around, and of course I had church online in the evening.


Last worn: blue sunnies, Sass and Bide jeans, converse, RM purple MAC. First time I've worn the tee as it's a recent purchase.



Here's what I wore to work today:

Away From Blue Leona Edmiston Blanche Floral Dress Trench coat

Away From the Blue Blog accessories Marc by Marc Jacobs Hillier Hobo

Jacket: Temt Black trench coat 
Necklace: gift from DH
Dress: Leona Edmiston Blanche dress (New purchase)
Belt: came with dress
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs logo plaque llats in two tone blush and black
Bracelets: the usual plus Marc by Marc Jacobs enamel turnlock stripey hinge black and white bangle
BagMarc by Marc Jacobs Classic Q Hillier Hobo in blush pink with silver hardware


Woah, a lot of Marc By Marc Jacobs today, haha. And another new purchase! I bought a couple of dresses in the Leona Edmiston sale, and I picked them up from my tailor this weekend. They are always too long on me, but when I get them on super sale I don't mind paying a little extra to have them taken up to fit. Nice simple outfit for a Monday. Bit colder than yesterday though, I think a scarf would have been a useful addition.

Got my long-overdue haircut on Saturday and I'm still figuring out how to style it to be honest! The hairdresser always makes it look so easy and pretty in the salon. Wasn't an issue on Sunday as the sea air made it wavy and it didn't need any input on my part, haha.


Linking up at Sunday Style, My Style Monday, What I woreTrend Spin Linkup and Summer Style today.

Last worn: trench, cap toe flats, Marc Jacobs Hillier hobo. It's the first time I've worn the dress as it's a new purchase.

  8. Oooo! I like the haircut and the way you styled it! Also, it's really cool how you incorporate multiple outfits into one post! Not very many bloggers do that, and it makes it so much more versatile to read. Thanks for sharing, you look lovely in both outfits!

    1. Thank you! :) As I share what I wear every day I figured bundling it up to only post once every 2 days was better, so two days of outfits :)

  16. Sounds like you had a lovely day at the beach. I was surprised to see you in a T shirt. Lucky you and even more so Cooper. Nothing better than a day at the beach for a dog. Love your pink hand bag.

    1. We weren't sure how Cooper would react at the beach, as he was adopted from the shelter and we didn't know if he had been before - but he definitely hadn't seen the sea, haha. It was so cute to watch him on his first time, I took so many photos that day of him running around smiling :)
