Casual Friday: Jeans, Striped Top, Rocco Bag | Tank, Maxi Skirt, RM Nikki Hobo

Here's what I wore to work on Friday:


Necklacecustom Cooper charm by Silhoupette
TeeLiving Doll stripe 3/4 sleeve top
Jeans: Sass and Bide "Straight up" jeans
ShoesNine West fascinate ballet flats in silver glitter
Bracelets: the usual
BagAlexander Wang Rocco with gold hardware in dark argon


Always predictable, jeans for casual Friday :) Covered up a little with this shirt as it was overcast and the weather was predicted to get cooler and storm a little. Forgot to pack an umbrella though, which meant I got soaked on the way home as the rain set in, haha. Meant it was a good night for comfort food for dinner and curling up on the sofa watching a movie.


Last worn: stripe top, skinny jeans, glitter flats, Alexander Wang Rocco bag.



Here's what I wore today:


Sunnies: Orange sunglasses from Paddy's Market in Sydney
Necklace: Roie Designs feather, quartz and love charm long necklace
Singlet: Cotton on caramel 'Forever Tank' in caramel
Skirt: Seafolly runaway maxi skirt in sunset (purchased at DFO Brisbane)
ShoesAsos metallic Freestyle leather sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus Roie Designs waxed leather cream howlite beaded wrap bracelet
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Nikki in Silverstreak


I will be honest, I spent a bit of time trying to find the perfect orange or yellow top in my wardrobe to wear with this to have a full obmre sunset outfit going on! Nothing seemed to match quite right, so I went with this nice brown tank in the end. Probably best, I might have gotten strange looks from people wondering if I was dressing up as a sunset for Halloween, haha!


Last worn: orange sunniesbrown singlet, ombre maxi skirt, Asos freestyle sandals, Rebecca Minkoff Nikki bag.

  9. I knew you would style this skirt so well- it's such a pretty skirt! I like it with the brown, I probably would have been safe and stuck with white.

    1. haha we did think of going to the Halloween parade and dressing him up a bit, but decided not to. He does have a little NYPD shirt my sister bought him in NY, so that's a cute costume for him! :)

  25. Well look at you Miss Chic! If I knew how to whistle via blog comment, I would ;)

  26. Looking amazing lately, Mica - you have the best bags ever. I would try a contrasting colour top with this skirt, like turquoise, then popping a turquoise shoe or bag to tie it together.

  27. Thank you all for your kind comments!

    And I guess I picked the top to wear with the maxi skirt really well, as lots of people thought it was a dress! :)
