What I wore:
Tank: MEV Britney bubble tank in mood indigo C/O Zibibo
Jeans: Jeanswest 'shale' super skinny jeans
Shoes: Asos 'five star' leather sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch C/O JORD
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur neverfull
Why I wore it:
I wore this navy tank with the mauve jeans not just because I like blue and purple together but also because this top is my favourite breastfeeding outfit option for when I'm babywearing. We had to go into Mater in the city to see a specialist for baby boy. I knew I was going to have to feed him at some point so this was an ideal top. The kimono was a nice cover-up and I picked it as the birds in the print worked well for the 'gone wild' style challenge of the day.The Louis Vuitton neverfull wasn't the best option for carrying while babywearing, but I hung it off the stroller when I needed my hands free and it was perfect for holding all the forms and things I needed to bring along to the appointment.
Last worn:Ray-Ban Wayfarer, navy breastfeeding tank, grey printed kimono, shale skinny jeans, Asos leather sandals, Louis Vuitton damier azur neverfull.
Other ways to wear: navy breastfeeding tank for a trip to the zoo, grey printed kimono and shorts, shale skinny jeans in the office, Asos leather sandals and boho dress, Louis Vuitton damier azur neverfull and maxi skirt.

What I wore:
Jeans: Jeanswest blackberry super skinny jeans
Shoes: slim gold Havaianas
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur neverfull
Why I wore it:
The style challenge for the day was 'habitual' and jeans and a tee is one of my habits! I think it will always be one of my go-to outfit options, even though I love my maxi skirts too.Wanted to wear blue and purple again so this navy graphic tee was nice with the purple skinny jeans. The kimono was a bit of an afterthought. While it was a warm day and I wasn't sure I'd need it, it was a little windy so I wore it just in case. Even though we were just popping out to do a little shopping and get some groceries, it was the perfect extra layer.
Same Louis Vuitton bag again too - I was too lazy to take everything when we got home from the appointment the day before so I just carried it again.
Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarer (above), graphic tee, navy printed kimono, purple skinny jeans, Havaianas, Louis Vuitton damier azur neverfull (above).
Other ways to wear: graphic tee and maxi skirt, navy printed kimono and shorts, purple skinny jeans and boots in winter, Louis Vuitton damier azur neverfull in the office.

Purpleeeeeee!! I need a pair of purple jeans, haha. I used to have one but then they got all yucky.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.closet-fashionista.com/
Hope you can find another pair! I really like mine! :)
DeleteI guess I wear a lot of blue and purple tones together without realizing! They work really well and actually compliment both of the kimonos you're wearing! (:
ReplyDeleteBlue and purple is a really lovely color combination and I'm totally loving the kimono in your first look! That print is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteBlue & purple does look great together! I've always liked the color combination. But as you mentioned, being a new mom you're also looking for functionality & comfort and style. I think you achieved all of those things Mica. The graphic on that second tshirt is too cute.

I like the bird print kimono. I can only imagine that with two small children getting out of the house must be a real ordeal, but you're keeping it together :)
ReplyDeleteYou know I am going to do some google search see if I can find a way to restore the inside of shoes... I am keeping my black ones.
Hopefully you can restore the shoes!
DeleteI'm kind of getting into a routine with the boys! Some days it seems to take us forever to get out on time though, haha!
I love colored skinnies! Great looks!
ReplyDeleteI just love your beautiful kimonos, adds such a nice relaxed look to an outfit! x

You look fabulous! Those purple jeans are great and I love how deep the color is! And I second using the same bag everyday. When I switch up my bags I always forget a wallet or something so I just end up with the same on most days! Yours is a great style and color that looks great with both outfits!
ReplyDeletehttp://www.mylittlenest.org
Yes sometimes it's easier than transferring everything between bags! I usually keep most stuff in little pouches in my bags so it's easy to swap between them.
DeleteWhat a cute look, I love your bag

Thanks! It's so fun, a teething necklace for baby boy!
DeleteI love the color combinations. Purple and blue are on of my fave colors and this is just so appealing to my eyes :D
ReplyDeleteJoyce | Joycentricity
I hope it is nothing serious that mad you see the specialist!
ReplyDeleteI wear purple and blue together occasionally, but only because most of my denim is blue anyway.

Oh I love the color of both of those pairs of jeans. I love purple and need to add more of it to my closet. I'm so impressed that you're able to breastfeed and babywear. I haven't really mastered either yet (breastfeeding is coming along, but slowly, and she's still too small to fit in the carrier) but hopefully I'll get there!
ReplyDeleteYou will get there! You'll know from the early days with your eldest - things seem so impossible at first but you get there in the end! :)
DeleteLoving both combos, top one especially, and hope all is okay with baby boy?
ReplyDeleteYeah he just needs a little extra investigation into some health issues :)
DeleteThose purple skinny jeans are so cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute necklace! Love the colors and how large it is!

I swear I am the last person on earth that don't own a kimono. It was all the rage two years ago and even last year but I still didn't pick one up. You look so pretty with the kimono!

I never wore them that much until the past few years - I wonder how I coped without them now, haha!
DeleteI don't think I have any purple in my closet. Those purple jeans are fabulous! Both of these looks are so cute!
