What I wore:
Earrings: Kmart navy tassel earrings
Jacket: thrifted Zara black blazerNecklace: Target silver Alisha trinity pendant necklace
Dress: Target Dannii Minogue Petites printed faux wrap dress
Shoes: Walnut Melbourne 'Ava' black lizard ballet flats (also available in silver)
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Regan Satchel Tote in moon
Why I wore it:
Because I wasn't feeling very inspired when thinking up what to wear, I went with this simple faux wrap dress, navy earrings to match the navy bag and black ballet flats to match the blazer. Nice and simple.A slightly chiller morning with some rain, so I wore my blazer for my commute to work. I usually have a blazer or cardigan with me to battle the cold aircon at work! This faux wrap dress is sleeveless so the blazer was appreciated, especially as it started raining while I took pics. I usually stay away from faux wraps being petite, but this is from the Target Danni Minogue petites's range so hits at the perfect spot!
The necklace was a last minute addition and something I think didn't work that well with the dress - a different length of necklace would have been better.
Last worn: navy tassel earrings, black blazer, silver circle necklace, geometric print faux wrap dress, black ballet flats, Rebecca Minkoff Regan bag.
Other ways to wear: black blazer and jeans, geometric print faux wrap dress and trench coat, black ballet flats and pencil skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Regan bag and navy blouse.
Perfect for pregnancy: black blazer in third trimester, geometric print faux wrap dress in second trimester, black ballet flats in third trimester.
What's In My Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Regan
What I wore:
Dress: Atmos&Here Betsy jersey wrap dress in watercolour print
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs logo plaque flats in camel
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Regan Satchel Tote in moon
Why I wore it:
I had a cardigan in my bag to wear over this short sleeved dress in the office too, but as it was a warmer autumn morning I didn't need it to keep me warm while taking photos.It's not the first time I've worn this wrap dress with the Regan bag and the camel ballet flats - as I pointed out on Instagram, if a combination works, why change it? I like trying something different when I rewear things, even if it's just changing an accessory, but I'll happily completely copy things I've worn before. Even if I did slightly change the outfit this time by picking a different necklace!
Last worn: silver initial necklace, watercolour print wrap dress, camel flats, Rebecca Minkoff Regan bag (above).
Other ways to wear: watercolour print wrap dress for a birthday party, camel flats and skinny jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Regan bag and printed shorts.
Perfect for pregnancy: watercolour print wrap dress in third trimester, camel flats in third trimester.

You look great in both of these wrap dresses! Interesting, the Danni Minogue for Target line must be an Aussie exclusive. I don't think we had that here in the states!
ReplyDeleteGina || On the Daily Express
Oh it's a shame you don't have it! It's a permanent fixture here in Australia, such good value especially on sale!
DeleteEstupenda entrada! Espero verte pronto por mi blog! 🤗🤗🤗
ReplyDeleteI like the longer necklace with the first dress, Mica.In fact, I might have even worn a couple necklaces. I've been trying hard to layer my necklaces lately, so you can see where my mind is...ha ha

Layering necklaces is a great idea! :)

ReplyDeleteI just love that bag! Such a gorgeous navy!! And the llama is adorable, hehe! Perfect work outfits

The llama is just the best!
DeleteBeautiful smile and dress. Blessings. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteBoth of these wrap dresses look amazing on you. I love how the first dress looks paired with a navy jacket and bag. I actually love that necklace with that dress, but I can see why you might prefer a shorter one. I really like the pattern on the second dress. It looks wonderful on you.
ReplyDeletehttps://modaodaradosti.blogspot.com/
Thanks! Yes I think I'll try a different one next time!
DeleteBoth of these are work appropiate, liked the second one more
ReplyDeletehttps://www.stylebasket.in/
Having pieces you can always turn to when you’re not feeling inspired or in a rush is so important! I love the dress you chose on that kind of day, as well as the second one; those camel flats look so good with it! Thanks for sharing and have a great week!

Yes dresses are great for those kinds of days!
DeleteBoth of these outfits are very chic. When I have no idea what I want to wear I head over to Pinterest. Have a great week.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.amysfashionblog.com/blog-home
That's a good idea! :)
DeleteYou have so many nice bags. I'm just too lazy to change mine. HA! Love both looks. Great office wear for sure!
ReplyDeleteI try to use them often so I can justify buying more, haha!
DeleteBoth of these looks are great. I like the first one in particular. And nice that it is cool enough now to wear a blazer. And oh boy the aircon at work. Every place I have ever worked it has always been a battle between people who are hot or cold. Ugh. I worked places where people turned the heat on in the office during a heat wave b/c they said the AC was making them cold. And people who turn fans on during the polar vortex b/c they say the heat is making them too hot. First world problems for sure lol

I managed the whole day without any Aprils Fools jokes - to be honest, I didn't even think about it until now.
ReplyDeleteI saw a few around, haha!
DeleteBoth are cute dresses, and they look great with that navy tote—it's such a classic color and shape!

Blue is my favourite colour so the first outfit is really serving some looks - I'm OBSESSED with how you've put the navy shades together! The bag complements the outfit perfectly - another beautiful wear from you! x

These are great formula outfits, especially for a mom on the go like you, Mica! I actually thought that the necklace in the first outfit was a brooch.
ReplyDeleteA brooch would look great! :)

ReplyDeleteYou look so good in these dresses! Love the colours

I love that navy dress. It's such a beautiful colour and print on you. I also love Danni M's range at Target. One of my best ever buys was a denim jacket. It's such a great cut and fit. I always get people asking me where I got it from!

I need to check out the denim jackets! I love this dress but haven't got anything else from the range yet!

ReplyDeleteThat's a really pretty dress, Mica...I love navy blue. It's always a good idea to have a standby look for those days when we just don't feel the usual creativity when getting dressed. Have a great week!

Mica that bag is so cute! I only own one navy bag and it's a small suede one from Loeffler Randall. I love this one! Goes so well with all your looks.

I actually forgot about April Fool's until I started seeing jokes on Instagram so the first one was a fun reminder.
ReplyDeleteI like both ways you styled wrap dresses, but the second look is my favorite. I really like the combination of colors.
