Spring Dresses, Ankle Boots, Rebecca Minkoff Mini Affair Bag

With the weather warming in Brisbane and some proper spring temperatures arriving, I took the chance to wear my favourite spring outfit combination - ankle boots and a dress. I added an extra layer to both outfits as it's not quite as warm as I'd like it to be yet.

What I wore:

Sunnies: Rayban new Wayfarers

Top: Valleygirl blue 3/4 sleeve tee
Dress: Jeanswest Rachel Lyocell chambray dress (C/O)
Shoes: Asos airtime leather Chelsea boots in tan
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini quilted affair bag in fire engine red (on sale in burgundy and on sale in grey)

Why I wore it:

Yep, that chambray dress again! I did warn on instagram it was going to be the dress I wear over and over for spring/summer this year, haha! It's pretty much being worn as soon as it's washed and ironed.

Decided to layer the blue tee under the dress for a little bit of extra warmth, as I wore a cardigan with it last time. I thought the red bag was a nice colourful option with the blue.

Wore this on a busy day! Went grocery shopping, viewed some more houses, and had to rush Cooper to the emergency vets in the afternoon as he cut his paw. Poor pup had to wear a bandage and the cone of shame.


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarers, blue tee, chambray dress, Asos Chelsea ankle boots, Rebecca Minkoff mini affair bag.

Other ways to wear: blue tee and a pencil skirt, chambray dress and a cardigan, Chelsea ankle boots and printed jeans, Rebecca Minkoff mini affair bag and a maxi skirt.

What I wore:

Scarf: Marc by Marc Jacobs Stargazer scarf in aquamarine (on sale, and also on sale in black!)

Dress: Atmos&Here navy stripe tee dress
Boots: RMK Chester black ankle boots
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini quilted affair bag in fire engine red (on sale in burgundy and on sale in grey)

Why I wore it:

This was pre-groom, with Cooper still wearing his fluffy winter coat as he sits in the background of my shots. I'm so behind with blogging what I wear that I often just pick a few photos that make sense to post together, even if I do post things a little out of order.

In contrast to the outfit above, this was worn on a much quieter day. Spent the day with toddler T, running some errands in the morning. I had to do a little bit of driving around so I wore my knee bandage for some extra support.

This dress hasn't been worn in a while! I didn't wear it as much this winter as I did when I first got it. It's great for winter layering as it's quite a thick fabric, and it has a dropped hem in the back so it's got extra coverage when running around after a toddler. Hopefully I'll get a few more wears out of it before Brisbane gets too warm. I actually ended up taking the scarf off for some of the day, as the dress kept me nice and cosy.
