Top: Kmart lilac basic singlet
Skirt: Vintage black pleated midi skirt from my Mum's closet
Belt: Forever New 'orchid petal' skinny belt (New purchase)
Shoes: Novo 'Tahnee' black studded sandals (New purchase)
Bracelets: the usual plus Forever New coral / white wrap around charm bracelet (New Purchase)
Bag: Forever New 'Poppy' gunmetal embellished clutch (New purchase)
A relaxing Sunday after a busy Saturday with the girls! The warm weather made it the perfect time to wear some of my newly purchased spring accessories together. Although we weren't going out anywhere fancy, I was really looking for a chance to wear this beautiful beaded clutch. I thought it added a nice bit of interest to the outfit.
Last worn: vintage pleated skirt. The tank I've had a while but this is the first time it's been worn un-layered on the blog. Everything else was a new purchase from the weekend shopping trip!
Here's what I wore to work today:
Scarf: Marc by Marc Jacobs Island pine-print scarf
Dress: French Connection 'pendragon panache' cap sleeve dress in 'winters day base'
Belt: Forever New 'White Croc' skinny belt (New Purchase)
Shoes: Novo 'Camilla" brown bow flats (New purchase)
Bracelets: the usual plus Indigo Rose Design labradorite bracelets
Bag: Chloe Marcie medium hobo bag in Nut
Wearing more new things from the DFO shopping trip on the weekend! I thought the brown flats and white belt would work well with this printed dress, and I needed a nice simple outfit option for a big meeting this morning. A printed dress is always a good choice for work :)
Linking up with Sunday Style, My Style Monday, Style Sessions, Trend Spin today.
Last worn: Marc by Marc Jacobs scarf, French Connection dress, Chloe Marcie hobo bag.
That Chloe bag = absolute perfection x

ReplyDeleteWhoa you can wear sleeveless already? I am kinda jealous haha. I mean we are still getting a lot of sunshine but I almost need to wear a light jacket already! Your mum's pleated skirt fits you PERFECTLY! You should just forgot to give it back to her haha!

Very cute girl! Please check out my newest post at www.loveolia.com!
ReplyDeleteI have to get some of those thin belts. They just seem to tie everything together for you in so many outfits! Love how you're doing your hair with a slight curl to it lately. Trying to work out how you're doing it.... sparkle2day.com
ReplyDeleteYes the thin belts work in so many outfits! I'm using them a lot lately, haha.
DeleteAnd my hair is simply my natural waves not being fully straightened every morning - I'm getting lazier with my straightener, haha.
That clutch is so perfect - would be great for a night out - but I'd love to carry it with cutoffs and booties!

Mica, yap that red mac has some major fading around the corners as well as the bottom. I had the camera setting in "pop" so it didn't show up as obvious sadly :/
ReplyDeleteOh nooooo :( That's so sad :(
DeleteThat pleated skirt is so pretty! Love it with the purple belt.

ReplyDeleteLOVE your bejewelled purse!!! The clutch really brings your casual outfit to a cocktail level :)
ReplyDeleteOh seeing you in your cute maxi skirt just reminded me I have one somewhere. Must find it! I think brown flats / white shoes from your DFO haul goes very nicely with the dress.. and that Chloe of course! So jealous of your shopping trip - it looked really fun! <3
