Jeans and a Tee with Blazer and Scarf, Statement Metallic and Oversize Tee

Here's what I wore to go to a BBQ and spend the evening with the in-laws:

Jacket: Zara black blazer
Scarf: Marc by Marc Jacobs scarf in Island pine-print
Tee: French Connection oversized khaki green tee
Jeans: Jeanswest blue skinny jeans
Shoes: Asos Cleo leather boots in tan


Last time I wore this tee I was in my third trimester, and enjoying the fact that the oversize style still fit over the baby bump. It was not one of my favourite pregnancy outfits though, I much prefer the tee worn lose and oversized with a bit of a drape, not all stretched out over a baby belly. Not all my regular clothes looked great as maternity outfits, but I had fun trying them out anyway.

Added the blazer to dress up this jeans and tee outfit a little for spending the afternoon with the in-laws, and to help keep me warm in the rain. I have a lot of blazers, but I don't think any has gotten as much wear as this Zara one! It's a jersey material that doesn't feel too formal, but dresses up a casual outfit nicely. My sister has a similar blazer and I've always loved the way she wears hers, so I was pleased to find this piece when op-shopping. Definitely a good purchase, one of those pieces that makes me understand why so many people have "a classic blazer" as one of their must-have wardrobe items.


Last worn: Zara blazer, Marc Jacobs scarf, khaki tee, skinny jeans, Asos leather boots.

Here's what I wore to go out for a walk and spend time with a visitor today:

Tee: Wildfox Skeleton black tee with long sleeves (with Kmart black tank layered underneath)
Jeans: Sass and Bide 'Three Words' metallic gold jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black


Trying to wear these awesome metallic jeans a little more casually, dressed down with an oversized top and Converse. Didn't need to be too dressed up, as I had a quiet day at home with Cooper and baby T, with a visitor in the afternoon. Was looking through my wardrobe for something warm to wear to pair with the jeans when I saw this little-worn tee.

Haven't worn this tee in over a year! I wore it a few times when I bought it in 2012, before the weather got too warm, and since then I've only worn it twice. I think the time I wore it to Fright Night at Movie World for Halloween was the best possible opportunity it could be worn. Not something I wear enough to justify keeping in my wardrobe, although it is incredibly comfortable for lounging around at home in.


Last worn: Wildfox skeleton tee, metallic skinny jeans, Converse.
