The colourful scarves were really just for decoration and didn't need to keep me warm, on two beautiful spring days where we made the most of the sunshine at the park.
What I wore:
Dress: Asos grey skater dress
Shoes: Kmart sparkly silver glitter sneakers
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff red micro Avery cross body bag
Why I wore it:
This grey skater dress is a little worn piece in my wardrobe. In the past I've wondered why as it's always a nice piece to wear. Last worn over a year ago! Wearing it again reminded me I really should enjoy it more often, and not pass it over for more 'interesting' printed dresses.They grey dress was a beautiful backdrop for the bold red poppy print scarf and mini Avery tote bag. Also was a nice length for walking around and playing at the playground with the boys. Being knee length I found it an okay length, even if I was a little more considerate with exactly how I crouched down to toddler level!
First time I've walked so far in these shoes - and I was really pleased they were so comfortable all day. There was a little rubbing right before we got home but I think that was because my sock slipped down. We decided to make the most of the beautiful weather and walk to a park a couple of Ks away, a little further than our usual park. The boys loved it though, it was such a nice day.
Last worn: red poppy print scarf, ASOS grey skater dress, glitter sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff mini Avery bag.
Other ways to wear: poppy print scarf and red tee, grey skater dress and purple scarf, glitter sneakers and green jeans, Rebecca Minkoff mini Avery bag and skinny jeans.
Perfect for pregnancy: grey skater dress in second trimester.
Rebecca Minkoff Vs Balenciaga:
Showing you more of my Rebecca Minkoff and Balenciaga collection side by side and talking about the similarities and differences of each. Since they are the two brands most common in my handbag collection, I also share my favourite and why!
What I wore:
Dress: Rivers Aztec print dress
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC
Why I wore it:
Another lovely spring day, another morning at the park! Took the boys on a quick errand in the morning and then we walked to our local park to enjoy the sunshine. I love the spring days where it's warm enough to get out and get some fresh air but it's not so hot you're suffering!I really liked the orange scarf with the Aztec print on this dress. The print wasn't as orange as I thought it would be when I was planning this outfit, but I felt the crinkles on the scarf still worked nicely with the lines in the print. I did consider adding a denim jacket to this as it was a little breezy in the morning, but I actually couldn't find it. I had slipped off the hanger in my wardrobe, I found it later that evening. While there were a few moments during the day I felt a bit of a chill, with all of the walking and running around I was pretty warm and glad I hadn't found the jacket in time.
Picked my little silver Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC to wear with this outfit, as it felt quite busy with the bright scarf and printed dress. I loved how well it worked, it's one of those neutral bags that goes with everything. Most importantly, it slips inside the baby bag which I still carry even on trips to the park as who knows when the boys will find a puddle and I'll need that extra change of clothes!
Last worn: orange crinkle scarf, Aztec print dress, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff silver mini MAC.
Other ways to wear: orange crinkle scarf and navy dress, Aztec print dress at the beach, Converse and pencil skirt, Rebecca Minkoff silver mini MAC and maxi skirt.
Perfect for pregnancy: Aztec print dress in second trimester, Converse in second trimester, Rebecca Minkoff silver mini MAC in third trimester.

You look so pretty in both of these dresses, Mica! I love how you've styled both dresses. The red poppy scarf looks fab against the grey dress and I love how the bag matches the poppies and your sneakers match the dress! Fabulous! I love the Aztec print on the second dress and how the pattern on your scarf complements it so well and adds fabulous colour too! Hope you have a great weekend, Mica! ;) XXX

I love the red in your outfit. The scarf and the bag is a perfect pop of color with your adorable dress. They add an oomph to your look. The geometric dress is so beautiful on you and I love how you styled that beautiful silver bag with it.

I love how you matched the colorful scarves to more neutral dresses. It really is so nice to be able to wear dresses without all the extra layers.
ReplyDeleteKathrin | Polar Bear Style
It is so nice to shed all the layers when spring arrives! :)
DeleteIt's always exciting being able to wear dresses and not worry about the cold weather. Love how you paired the scarf with the bag! Your pup is cute! You're always rocking the lovely Rebecca Minkoff bags!
ReplyDeleteNancy ♥ exquisitely.me
I do love Rebecca Minkoff bags, haha!

ReplyDeleteAnne - Linda, Libra, Loca
Must be nice starting to look at your winter wardrobe though! :)
DeleteScarfs are really great accessories. Indeed it's not about keeping warm, they just enhance your outfit. I love both of them and how you wore them.
ReplyDeleteNgumabi xxo | ngumabisglam.blogspot.com
Yes, it's nice to wear them just to add colour when you don't need to be too warm! :)
DeleteI try to do the same and get most of my clothes worn year round. Your grey dress is my favorite out of the two outfits and it's a nice color contrast with your printed scarf! Red is my favorite color but do not own a red bag - truly love RM and this one you are wearing.
ReplyDeleteMaureen | www.littlemisscasual.com
It is such a cute little red bag! I love accessorising with red :)
DeleteI love the way your poppy scarf looks with your red bag! They make such a great combination! I recently got a grey dress this past spring and I really like wearing it with brighter colors too. It makes a great background for fun accessories!
ReplyDeleteThanks Laura! It really does make a great background, I should wear it more often! :)
DeleteI'm loving the grey skater dress! The skirt would make me feel like twirling!
ReplyDeletewww.jeannieinabottleblog.com
I love how the use of a scarf can instantly change or even improve an outfit! I definitely need to improve my collection as I literally have one!
ReplyDeleteI also adore those sparkly sneakers, glad to hear they don't rub either as that can be the one issue with cute shoes!

So true! One of the best things is to wear dresses and the dresses you wore are both beautiful! I understand your thoughts that you think you should wear the first dress more often as it is really beautifu - especially with the colourful scarf!

These are both lovely spring outfits! I love how the gray dress makes the red poppy print scarf stand out. And the aztec print of the other dress is really pretty! Even thought it's fall here this is making me want to wear more dresses and scarfs. I hope you have a wonderful week ahead!

You know I love those glittery sneakers!! They're so cute, and they look great with that adorable skater dress!
ReplyDeleteThey are such a fun shoe! :)
DeleteLove the floral scarf and red bag! I forget that you can use scarves as an accessory, not just to keep your neck warm!

That dash of red works wonderfully with your outfits, dear! xoxo
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I love how you accessorized these dresses with scarves. The bright orange is such a fun, vibrant color. And what a cute twirly pose on the first dress. Who can resist? :)
ReplyDeleteGina || On the Daily Express
haha yes, impossible not to twirl in such a twirlable dress!
DeleteYour first look is so cute, and one I can totally duplicate, so I'll have to keep it in mind, you know, for my spring, which feels decades away right now.
ReplyDeletehttps://www.iamchiconthecheap.com/
hope it makes you happy as this did for me when your spring rolls around! :)
DeleteThat poppy scarf is so pretty with that dress. It really pops with the red. I think scarves can really change up a whole look and make a dress doable for cooler weather!
