Purple Singlet, Shorts, Sandals, RM MAC | Suboo Striped Maxi Dress, Pink Accessories, Studded Clutch

Here's what I wore on Friday:

Sunglasses: gifted Cotton On 'Risky Business' sunglasses in sky blue
Top: Cotton On Alexa pocket tank in potent purple
Shorts: Jeanswest denim cuff shorts
ShoesRebecca Minkoff 'Beach Babe' strappy sandals in electric pink
Bracelets: the usual plus Hermes pink clic clac
BagRebecca Minkoff MAC bag in deep purple (extra 25% off sale items with code 'OURGIFT2U')


Just a casual shorts and singlet outfit for Friday! We didn't really get up to much. We relaxed and enjoyed the pool, and spent some time at home as a family. I made a start on some of the books I got for Christmas too - hopefully I'll be able to go back to work having finished at least one book (I currently have 3 on the go!).


Last worn: blue sunglasses, purple tank, denim shorts, Rebecca Minkoff sandals, RM deep purple MAC.



Here's what I wore to go shopping today:

Sunglasses: pink leopard print sunglasses from Paddy's Markets in Sydney
Necklace: gifted beaded statement necklace from local markets
Dress: Suboo Riviera Nautical maxi dress
BeltAsos Metal Keeper super skinny belt in pink (Asos 50% off sale on now)
ShoesBalenciaga studded sandals in sorbet RGGH
Bracelets: the usual plus beaded neon and gold bracelet set. Disney Couture Winnie the Pooh bangle on other arm.
Bag: gifted Typo neon pink studded case worn as clutch


I really like pink and blue together, so went with all pink accessories today!

This morning DH and I had to brave the shops after we had a minor miscommunication. We have a party coming up, and we were each under the impression that the other had organised the gift, when neither of us had. It wasn't as busy at the stores as I thought it would be, although there are certainly a lot of sales around. We ended up sticking to just getting what we needed, having lunch and getting home again. The pool was calling so I will have to spend my Christmas gift cards another time ;)

Have you shopped the post-Christmas sales in person yet?

  12. That pink bag is so fun!!! I have not gone to the malls post Christmas but have ordered a bunch on things online. What books are you reading? If they are good, please pass the names along. I am always on the hunt for new books to read.

    1. What kind of books do you like to read? I'm in the middle of a novel, a fashion book and a book by my pastor. Quite a mix! :)

  13. I love your bags especially the gorgeous pink. I was brave enough to go to the shops a couple of days ago because its only a short walk from home. But it was a big mistake because it was way too busy and very overrated (although I did come home with one amazing pair of shoes so it was not all negative).

  29. I love that purple and denim together Mica. Fabulous striped dress. So glad you guys got what you needed. I know that can be frustrating, but you two did very well. I haven't shopped any post-Christmas sales. HAHA I've been quiet. I have 3 books to read as well. Lately, I haven't been in the mood to read. LOL
