What I wore:
Necklace: Jeanswest Taryn turquoise tassel bead necklace
Dress: Jeanswest Sophia high-low maxi dress
Shoes: Acne pistol boots in "skin"
Bag: Chanel vintage quilted lambskin flap
Why I wore it:
I wore this pretty maxi dress out to brunch with some other Brisbane style Instagrammers. When I first tried on this dress in Jeanswest back in Spring last year I was wearing ankle boots and I loved how it looked - so I am glad with the cooler weather I got to give this combination a wear!We all caught up for a wonderful brunch at Little and Oliver's on the Bayside and then some of us went and took a few extra photos afterwards. Big thanks to K for taking this shot for me!
I rarely get a chance to wear this vintage Chanel bag so I decided to wear it out since I was kid-free for a rare change! It was a nice accessory with the colourful printed dress.
Last worn: denim jacket, gold pendant necklace, printed ruffle hem maxi dress, Acne Pistol boots, vintage Chanel flap bag.
Other ways to wear: denim jacket and shorts, printed ruffle hem maxi dress and sandals, Acne Pistol boots and printed shorts, vintage Chanel flap bag and snakeprint dress.

What I wore:
Necklace: Kmart pink multi-colour beaded necklace
Dress: Jeanswest 'Elodie' tie dye grey jersey maxi dress
Shoes: Asos leather Chelsea boots in tan
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff small Darren messenger bag in peony
Why I wore it:
Repeated the outfit formula from above again with different pieces. You can't really see in the pics but I picked my tan ankle boots to go under this tie dye maxi dress with the peony pink Rebecca Minkoff Darren cross body bag and the same trusty denim jacket.Couldn't resist being a little matchy-matchy with the blush necklace to match the blush pink bag! Wore this out to church on a rather busy day. The dress was a throw on and go easy outfit.

How You Can Wear It:
Maxi dresses aren't just summer pieces! By adding boots and a jacket you can make them work for spring and autumn as well. When winter hits you might need to layer leggings or tights underneath though!Linking up with Lizzie In Lace, Mutton Style, On Mondays We Link Up, Modest Monday.
Love this look!
ReplyDeleteBoth maxi dresses are such lovely prints and look great with your denim jacket. I'm on the look out for a denim jacket at the moment! I
ReplyDeletelove both of your bags too! So pretty! Hope you have a wonderful weekend, Mica! ;) XXX
I just bought a denim jacket at Jeanswest! Maybe worth checking out :)

Denim jacket is classic and I love how it complements maxi dresses perfectly. Nice to know you attend instagrammer style group, it would be so fun.

Scotland is my absolute favourite place to visit in the entire world - I'm more than a bit jealous that you're there! And I am also a fan of longer dresses and ankle boots in chillier weather, it always makes for a nice combo.

It is a beautiful country, very cold though, haha!
DeleteI love a jean jacket with dresses like this Mica!! What a great way to travel.

Oh both of these dresses are so great. I love the hi-low hem detail on the first one. What a fun and flattering way to show off your shoes! I hope you are having an amazing time in Scotland!
ReplyDeleteWe had a great time thank you!
DeleteI'm drawn to both of your bags! I love a classic Chanel purse but am too afraid to use lambskin after wrecking a favorite lambskin purse (caviar all the way for me!) The blush color of your Rebecca minkoff is sweet too!
ReplyDeleteYes this one is definitely lived in, haha!
DeleteLovely outfit, jean jackets are my favorite!!
ReplyDeleteOh I love maxi dresses with denim jackets, this is a go to look for me in the summer months. I wear this to the office and the jacket helps with the AC and from not showing too much skin.

Okay well I am swooooooning over your vintage Chanel right now! Although I can totally understand why you're careful not to bring it out around your children too often haha! Have a fabulous weekend :)

You look gorgeous as always, I also love the combo of lightweight chiffon dresses with chunky boots :) There si definitely something super appealing about it!
ReplyDeleteLots of love ♥ January Girl
I love the maxi dress. What a great outfit for summer. To be honest I am totally obsessed with your handbag. I am jealous!
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me to wear my denim jacket! It's a great cover-up over your pretty dresses! I hope you are having fun in Scotland - I was there in 1996 and had a great time. The people are so friendly!
ReplyDeleteIt is such a lovely country, we enjoyed our time there! :)
DeleteThat high low dress looks fabulous with ankle boots!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great weekend. We have a three day holiday weekend here!
I so need to bust out my jean jacket. When I went to Scotland a few years ago. I was freezing. I had on a sweatshirt, my coat and my husband coat.

Oh yes we needed all the layers in Scotland, haha! Even now it's winter in Brisbane it's still not been that cold yet!
DeleteBeautiful maxi dresses dear! I love how you styled it with a denim outfit and ankle boots. Your vintage Chanel bag is beautiful. I think vintage designer bags are always such a good choice because they are more sustainable and to me they always look better than new ones. I think it has to do with the fact that materials used were treated with less chemical in the past and that makes vintage items more valuable.
ReplyDeleteThe second outfit is very pretty as well. That dress is so lovely. I love its colour and the subtle print. You look fantastic in both outfits. I hope that you have enjoyed your European trip. Have a great weekend!

Dresses, and not just maxi dresses, worn with ankle boots are my outfit formula. It's ankle boot season for most of the year here anyway, even in Summer. Love both your outfits! The first dress with the hi-low hem is perfect for showing off your boots, and even though we cannot see them in your second outfit, that dress looks fabulous on you! Have a great weekend, Mica! xxx
ReplyDeleteMica, I just love how your new hairstyle is gently waving in the breeze - it's so flattering! And I love how you've styled both maxis (I love to wear maxis in the summer and should be carrying them through the autumn at least) with the ankle boots and denim jacket (I wear my denim jackets with everything). I hope you're having an awesome weekend!

I love wearing dresses with ankle boots as well. There's a little something sassy about it. Both outfits are so effortlessly stylish.
