Dresses, Ankle Boots and Rebecca Minkoff Cross Body Bags

Dresses and ankle boots will always be a favourite outfit for spring. It's the perfect weather for bare legs and boots. I haven't worn the outfit combination much this year though, as I've been preferring separates that are easier to breastfeed in, and relying heavily on easy denim outfits. Although not all of my dresses are breastfeeding friendly, the ones below are as they have buttons.

What I wore:

Sunnies: Ray-Ban new Wayfarers

Jacket: New Look Petite print kimono
Dress: Jeanswest Rachel Lyocell chambray dress (C/O)
Shoes: Asos leather Chelsea boots in tan
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan satchel in Harvest Gold

Why I wore it:

This was a quiet day. Spent time with my mum in the afternoon, and in the morning I had a couple of errands to run as well as baby boy's weekly weigh. I went with a pretty blue outfit, again to try boost my confidence a little for the weigh in session! I'm at that point in my maternity leave where dresses are starting to feel a bit too much like 'special occasion' pieces, so it's nice to get them out even if the day doesn't call for being dressed up. I want to wear more of my wardrobe and not just the same few things over and over!


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarer, navy kimono, chambray dress, Chelsea ankle boots, Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan bag.

Other ways to wear: navy kimono and skinny jeans, chambray dress and lace, Chelsea ankle boots and skinny jeans, Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan bag and denim shorts.

What I wore:

Sunnies: Ray-Ban new Wayfarers

Dress: Atmos&Here Nigella collarless shirt dress
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots (on sale!)
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag in cherry red (on sale and on sale in pink!)

Why I wore it:

I picked this dress out to wear again, it's been a while and I had been looking forward to wearing it with bare legs in warmer weather when I bought it. With ankle boots of course, and then the red bag seemed nice with the red print on the dress. This was a simple and easy outfit for a boring morning at the accountants and shopping for groceries. Again, like the outfit above, I did feel a little overdressed for the occasion. It was nice to wear this dress without all the winter layers though.

I was starting to run a little late for the appointment at the accountants when I noticed the lighting was perfect for photos - cloudy but bright. I was hurrying to setup and take a quick shot before I left, and was unimpressed when the sun popped out just as I snapped a picture! There was no time to reposition the camera into the shade before I hopped in the car so this squinting into the sudden sunlight shot is the best I got, haha! Should have just pulled my sunnies off my head...



Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarers (above), printed shirt dress, black ankle boots, Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag.

Other ways to wear: printed shirt dress and winter layers, black ankle boots and printed skinny jeans, Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag and skinny jeans.
