What I Bought In Autumn and How I've Worn It: Shopping Haul & Try On Video

Sharing a bit of everything with this What I bought post! Just like last month, I'm wrapping up a few weeks of purchases at once, so sharing my April and May autumn purchases.

Fashion items I picked up before our trip away, as well as the souvenirs I bought in Europe. (Technically the Europe purchases are spring buys but it felt like winter to me over there 😂 )





What I've Bought In Autumn:




What I Was Given:









Why I Bought It:


Quite a few impulse buys this month! The Mickey Mouse tee was something I hadn't intended to buy, I went to Uniqlo to check out the kids Disney tees for our Disneyland trip and when I saw adult sizes I had to get one too! I was hunting for kid's shoes in Big W when I came across the mustard tee and given how much I love mustard and that I've been wearing a lot of v-neck tees lately, had to add that to my trolley!

The berry blouse I'd been admiring at Jeanswest for a while waiting for a sale, and when it was reduced from $70 to $20 I had to buy it! They didn't have my size in store so I had to order it in and when it arrived shortly before we left I decided just to pack it for my trip as a last minute addition. The denim jacket is something I've had on my wishlist for a while, my current one is over 10 years old and I've mentioned a few times I want to update it, and when I saw this one I knew it would be perfect.

The Mickey Mouse scarf and the Edinburgh tourist tee were fun souvenirs from our trip!




How I've Worn It:





Not everything has been worn twice to meet my 'wear twice in the month I buy it' goals. Due to 3 weeks of travelling I'm giving myself a bit of grace there! The orange cami my mum picked up in the sales I couldn't wear due to the cold temps, which is a shame as it's so cute! I did get in one wear when I got back to Brisbane.

  4. I love everything you bought (wonderful video)! Mustard is my favorite yellow, too, and I'm trying to add more of it to my wardrobe. Our Target stores have v-neck tees and one of them is a beautiful mustard color. I LOVE that berry-colored blouse! It's so flowy and looks great on you. And that denim moto-style jacket! I can't say I've ever seen a denim moto-style jacket. I, too, have a denim jacket I've had for so many years I can't remember when I got it (probably close to 10). I finally got a new one this year so I could have something with a lighter wash and a little closer-fitting. I'm in love with that Mickey scarf, though. It's so unique and the colors are wonderful. I'm so glad you had an amazing trip and I hope your weekend is super!

      This denim jacket is so unique, I had to get it. My old one is probably 15 or so years old, time for an update!

  21. You do a great job with styling your clothes with different layers and everything! Big plus that you find your outfits at such a great price - forget paying full price. You made a great choice with your purchases!

  26. As usual you bought wonderful and versatile pieces and I like how you have styled them. Your impulse buy, the Disney shirt, is really fun and I'm not surprised it felt for you like winter in Europe :)

  30. love your Mickey Mouse tee and how you styled it! You bought a lot of pretty items, I'm sure you'll get lots of wear out of them. The denim jacket is adorable.

    I don't think I bought anything new this month. I'm not on a shopping ban or anything, I just didn't feel like shopping. I might buy a new printed t-shirt or dress soon, I don't think I have enough printed t-shirts and they can be so versatile.

    1. I agree printed tees are a good piece to have! Sometimes I don't feel like shopping either!

  31. Love your video. U did an amazing job picking these pieces and I always admire how effortless your styling is. That scarf caught my eye and you could rock that any time of year. I also love the denim jacket. The Mickey Mouse tee is so fun. I need to rock more graphic tees.

  35. I think the mementos of the trip are lovely! A great way to bring back memories of what sounds like a great holiday. You got some amazing bargains, too. I'm having a thing for berry tones at the moment so I'd definitely have gone for the Jeanswest top too. Hope settling back into real life is going well!

  39. You are excused ;) Its ok to indulge once in a while.
    The mustard tee shirt is beautiful and for 3.00 USD I would have gotten it too. The bright blouse that you got on sale, that use to be 70 was a score! I love it tied up. The denim jacket was also a great find Mica. I'd call this haul a win.
