What I wore:
Tee: Atmos & Here black essential v-neck tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: Walnut Melbourne 'Ava' black lizard ballet flats (also available in silver)
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff small Darren messenger bag in peony
Why I wore it:
While I'm trying to be more adventurous with colour, I do sometimes like to play it safe and stick with the classics. With a neutral black and grey outfit, I thought this pastel pink small Darren bag was the perfect accessory. I was pleased by how well it matched with my Fashion Scarf Girl leaf scarf as well!It was a wet day and I was working from home so I just needed a comfortable outfit to do the daycare pickup and drop off and sit in front of my computer. Jeans and a tee were perfect for that. These ballet flats have a rubber sole too, perfect for rushing around in the rain.
While it is a simple outfit, I really liked wearing this.
Last worn: black tee, grey skinny jeans, black ballet flats, Rebecca Minkoff small Darren. First time I've worn the scarf on the blog as it's a recent addition to my wardrobe.
Other ways to wear: black tee and olive pants, grey skinny jeans and navy blouse, black ballet flats and pencil skirt, Rebecca Minkoff small Darren and stripes.
Perfect for pregnancy: black ballet flats in second trimester.
Unboxing My Rebecca Minkoff Darren Bag
A quick reveal explaining why I bought this bag, first impressions and different ways you can wear it!
What I wore:
Tee: Spectrum basic v-neck tee in grey marl
Jeans: Jeanswest prima denim super skinny jeans in absolute black
Shoes: Walnut Melbourne Ava White leopard ballet flats
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff small Darren messenger bag in peony
Why I wore it:
Since I liked the outfit above so much, I wore exactly the same one again a few days later. It was a much drier start to the day, and I decided to take my new leopard print ballet flats out for a spin. Keeping them away from the mud the boys seemed to find on our morning walk was tricky, but they were mostly unscathed!As well as the different shoes, I flipped the colours around in the outfit so it was a grey tee and black jeans, the opposite of the first outfit. Again I accessorised with the same pastel pink bag.
We had a fun morning after our walk at our ABA mother's group catch-up, then a couple of quick errands to run. For a first wear, these shoes were very comfortable. I've shared them on the blog before, although this was the first time I wore them.
Last worn: grey tee, beaded necklace, Prima skinny jeans, white leopard print flats, Rebecca Minkoff small Darren (above).
Other ways to wear: grey tee over a maxi dress, beaded necklace, Prima skinny jeans and stripes, white leopard print flats and printed dress, Rebecca Minkoff small Darren and pencil skirt.
Perfect for pregnancy: grey tee in second trimester, beaded necklace, Prima skinny jeans in second trimester.

How You Can Wear It:
Jeans and a tee is a wardrobe staple, especially as a stay at home mum! These outfits are a great example of how you can still wear the classic combination while staying away from the blue jeans rut, with grey and black denim instead. You can also add a little colour to your jeans and tee outfit with some fun accessories. Sticking with a neutral outfit makes accessorising easy as any colour works!Linking up with Style On The Daily, Chic and Stylish, Weekend Wear, Flashback Fashion, Lizzie In Lace, Fancy Friday, Weekend Linkup, Modest Monday.

That pretty pink pastel bag is pure paradise sweet Mica! I love how you styled it with neutrals, the perfect colour combination. I agree that it matches your leaf print scarf so dreamily too :) I adore your leopard print ballet pumps, they fit so well with your necklace and tee. As always two stunning looks! ♥︎

Thanks Sophie! Pink is such a fun colour to accessorise with! :)
DeleteI do have a couple of light pink bags like this and they really are surprisingly neutral and go with a lot! Love how you've paired them with chic black and grey combos here. Always a favorite!

I really love the blush shade of your new bag - it's basically a neutral, so wear it with everything!

I have been loving all the colour combos I've been creating with it! :)
DeleteThat RM pastel bag is such a great buy:) I didn't think pale pink would be such a great neutral colour but there yah go:D And the simplest outfits are always the best IMO. Love both your looks here.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely agree - simple and comfortable is the way to go! It's such a nice bag too.

What a fun bag! I really want to get a good neutral crossbody and I keep seeing so many pink-ish ones but I am never sure how it would coordinate with what I wear. But it looks way more versatile than I thought! Plus, your grey skinny jeans remind me that I have a pair I want to snag on Black Friday!! Hope your week is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteVirginia | More to Mrs. E
Yes this is definitely a versatile bag! Hope you got the jeans you wanted :)
DeleteAgain, loving the baby pinks! This is so pretty!

Your accessories are so pretty and look wonderful with your neutral look! I also love your animal print flats. I need to get me a pair!
ReplyDeleteThey are such fun flats, hope you can find a similar pair! :)
DeleteWhat a lovely bag. Love the soft pink colour. Thanks so much for sharing your post with us at Welcome To The Weekend Blog Hop. Have a great weekend and we hope to see you soon.
ReplyDeleteI love the colour of that bag - it's so pretty!
ReplyDeleteYou look very cute! And how perfect is that blush color? I love how the RM bags have those long leather tassles (? I'm not exactly sure what to call them)--perfect for fidgeting with! When my bffl got her MAB back in the day, we would both just sit there and fiddle with the tassles! :)
ReplyDeletehaha yes! I love the tassels, I'm often playing with them without realising!
DeleteSometimes simple classic outfits are the best kind and just what one needs for the day. These are lovely looks. I especially like the pink accents in both looks.
ReplyDeleteKathrin | Polar Bear Style
Yes, sometimes simple is best! :)
DeleteBlack and pink always makes a lovely combo, and you're rocking it dear. Such a cute pop of soft color from the black tee.
