Denim Shorts, Slouchy Tees, Printed Scarves and Louis Vuitton Neverfull Tote

When I bought these tees from Jeanswest in the sale a few months ago, I didn't expect them to become as much of a staple as they have! I already have a few slouchy tees in my wardrobe, something just makes me keep picking out these tees. They are loose and light, perfect for a hot day when paired with denim shorts. To keep my outfits interesting, I added in a print with my lighter scarves. Both these blue scarves are made from viscose.

Why I wore it:

This outfit was a hastily pulled together last minute one, but it doesn't look it! I love how a scarf makes your outfit feel more pulled-together. I was in a bit of a rush that morning to get the boys ready and out the door to go to our local ABA group catch up. The blue printed scarf wasn't a necessary addition - I certainly didn't need it to stay warm! - but it was a great completer piece for an otherwise basic shorts and tee outfit. I really liked the red and blue together too.

These studded Rebecca Minkoff sandals are becoming a frequent go-to when I want to wear my Louis Vuitton neverfull tote - they just go perfectly together and with every outfit!

We had a busy morning with some errands to run after our ABA meeting so I picked my neverfull tote to carry everything we needed around the shopping centre and I could leave the bulky and heavy baby bag in the car!

Why I wore it:

A slightly less hectic start to the morning with this outfit! It was another hot day, but there was a bit of a breeze so this time around the scarf was added for a little extra warmth! I seem to wear this navy mixed print scarf with a lot of olive, this dark olive tee was a natural pairing with it when trying to figure out what to wear that morning.

While these glitter shoes were only $8 at Kmart, I've found them to be really comfortable shoes, so I figured I'd switch things up a little from my Converse and take them out on a stroll through the mangroves. I can't find a definitive answer on the length of the walk online, but the walk is part boardwalk part path through a little bit of bush. Other Bayside locals will know where I mean. It took us nearly 2 hours, lots of stopping to pat dogs walking along, or talk to fishermen, or watch trains once we climbed to the top of the hill. The breeze was perfect for stopping us from overheating, and my scarf came in handy when the wind got too much as we got further out into the bay.

We will need to take Cooper next time - we had to stop at the grocery store afterwards so he had to stay home this time.

Again I carried my big neverfull tote for everyone's water bottles, I didn't feel like carrying the heavy baby bag all the way around the walk!

Slouchy Tees Under $50:





How You Can Wear It:

A plain slouchy tee is a wardrobe basic and a mum essential. You can't beat a shorts and tee outfit or summer. If you need to change up the outfit a little or you just want to add some extra interest, try a printed scarf! Scarves draped loosely around your neck and made from a light fabric like the viscose these ones are made of will introduce a fun print without overheating you. You can wrap them a little tighter around when it gets cooler in the mornings or evenings, or when you're caught in the breeze being out on the water.

  1. Cute and comfortable summer looks! I love those RM sandals! They really do "dress up" a casual outfit in a perfect way. I also had to laugh because I did a double take when you said you went to an ABA meeting. At first I thought it said "ABBA" meeting and I was picturing something else entirely! LOl!!

  6. I love your outfit. The scarf along with the bag have nice contrast. Great summer/spring outfit. I cannot wait to pull out my shorts and wear them . Here it is quite cold and I am pretty much with my winter heavy coat all the time.

    1. haha! I find tucking them in a little helps make it better on a petite frame, as does sizing down when you buy ;)

  8. It's hard to resist buying a good t-shirt when you find one. Love your bag with both of these looks too. I have been considering buying one for a long time. I watched part of your video. Do you have any about how to properly weather/wear the patina?

  12. What a gorgeous bag! It has certainly held up pretty well after 7 years of use. The water marks look barely visible to my eye. May you enjoy many more years with it :)

  13. I really love the slouchy tee's you're styling here and I prefer them over fitted tee's! I like my body to breath in the summer. I feel like it is always so hard to come up with outfits in the summer and the scarf def. adds some color and a little something to this basic outfit! Love the Louis Vuitton tote!

  22. It is so true that a scarf can make an outfit more pulled together. I'm somewhat of a scarf addict and I love how you wear yours. That first outfit is super cute, it doesn't look hurried at all.

    The second outfit is fabulous as well. You wear shorts so well.

  26. You look great in shorts - it really helps that the length on these is a bit more modest than most jean shorts! I love that you go that little bit extra and add a scarf or sparkly shoe, Mica.

    Wishing you a very Merry Christmas! Hugs to you, my bloggy friend!

  29. A slouchy tee really is such a staple, but I don’t own one. All my tees are fitted, and that isn’t always the best option.

  33. I see your slouchy shirts are definitely wardrobe staples and I love it really both times how you combined them. It looks super cool that you added a scarf to the shorts and tee looks and I see your Neverfull is also so versatile.
    Merry Christmas!
