What I wore:
Tee: Atmos&Here charcoal grey v neck tee
Skirt: Target navy side split maxi skirt
Shoes: slim gold Havaianas
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB Camera Bag in almond
Why I wore it:
Wore this for a day with the boys, trying to get back into our usual routines after returning from Europe! We went to the playground and the library and did a little bit of grocery shopping. I needed a nice easy outfit, so a simple grey tee and striped maxi skirt seemed the best fuss-free way to dress. The splits up the side of this maxi skirt mean it doesn't get worn much in winter, but when I wore this back at the start of the month it was a milder day. It felt really warm compared to the cold temps we'd experienced on the other side of the world too! 😂This Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag was overdue a wear - I'd considered taking it overseas with me so that I could wear it to the wedding, but I went with the little silver mini MAC in the end. I was glad I'd taken the mini MAC, but still wanted to wear this camera bag when I got home.
Last worn: grey tee, tassel necklace, navy stripe maxi skirt, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag. First time I've worn the denim jacket as it's a recent purchase.
Other ways to wear: grey tee and olive pants, navy stripe maxi skirt and band tee, Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag and shorts.
Perfect for pregnancy: grey tee in third trimester.
What's In My Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB Camera Bag
What I wore:
Necklace: Kmart gold and navy beaded necklace
Tee: Spectrum basic v-neck tee in grey marl
Skirt: Target black and white striped maxi skirt
Shoes: slim gold Havaianas
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB Camera Bag in almond
Why I wore it:
Another day with the kids, another easy outfit, with a different grey tee and striped maxi skirt, but again the same outfit formula, with the same denim jacket, shoes and Rebecca Minkoff bag. I actually ended up taking the denim jacket off in the morning - it was such a nice day and we spent it at a park in the bayside, soaking up the sun.This black striped maxi skirt is one that hasn't been worn in a while. A pregnancy purchase when I was pregnant with my eldest boy, it's a piece I've already hit 30 wears on. When I'm thinking of things to wear I usually pass over this skirt for another one that hasn't hit 30 wears yet, but on this day I wanted to go back to an old favourite!
Last worn: denim jacket (above), beaded necklace, grey v-neck tee, black striped maxi skirt, Havaianas (above), Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag (above).
Other ways to wear: grey v-neck tee and shorts, black striped maxi skirt worn 30 ways, Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag and dress.
Perfect for pregnancy: grey v-neck tee in second trimester, black striped maxi skirt at 39 weeks.

How You Can Wear It:
A striped maxi skirt is an easy wardrobe staple for stay at home mum days, and can be paired with the ever classic grey tee so you don't have to worry about prints clashing. For cooler days, you can add a denim jacket on top.Linking up with Fancy Friday, Fabulous Friday.

Girl....this jacket is so good you can wear this everyday with any outfit!:) I really love this look with the skirt, and you look great as always. It's stylish but still something you can wear while hanging out with your boys.
ReplyDeleteHope you're having a lovely day/night:)
Thanks Emmy :) A comfy maxi-skirt is a go-to for mum life!
DeleteOh I love that your denim jacket has moto jacket styling! But now you're making me want one and I realllly don't need another jacket! LOL! Hope you are fully recovered from your amazing trip!
ReplyDeletehaha I was long overdue and update, my old one's over 15 years old!
DeleteI think it's nice to have similar outfits. They say that helps with decision fatigue!!
ReplyDeleteLove them both Mica.

A maxi skirt just makes the rest of the outfit look fancier - love both of these, Mica! That is a really pretty bag, great colour.
ReplyDeleteWelcome home!
Thanks Sheila! It's good to be back :)
DeleteLovely outfit ! :**
ReplyDeleteI like the cut of that denim jacket, it reminds me of an aviator jacket. Great way to mix two classics. I see nothing wrong with wearing a same jacket with a similar outfit formula, especially if the jacket is as cute as that denim one. Lovely maxi skirts and top...both outfits are fab. You look pretty and girly!
ReplyDeleteI think it is an advantage if one can rely on an well-working outfit formula - especially when the outfits are as beautiful as the two you show here!

Both of these outfits are so cute! I really like the edgier feel to that denim jacket. I only have one denim jacket so I always grab the same one! Ha!
ReplyDeleteYes I've only had 1 for about 15 years, it's good to have some variety, even if I forgot to switch it up a little with these! :)
DeleteI am loving the camera bag! It's so cute! Works perfectly with the denim jacket. I really like your hair too, Mica! It's looking lovely!

It's a great bag, I recommend it! :)
DeleteYou always look amazing in maxi skirts! So it's forgiven that the looks are alike!
ReplyDeleteI wish I had a chance to wear my denim jacket, but it went from sooo cold to hot hot in a few days and I never had a chance! :/ Hoping for next spring :)

Ah yes blame it on jet lag! It is a super cute jacket I can see why you grabbed it twice. And love the stripes. So much sunnier there!

Love both of these outfits! I don't think I've ever seen a denim biker jacket! It's so cute!

I'm a big fan of an outfit formula, too! I have a similar navy stripy skirt from Kmart that I wear to death in spring and autumn. So good to throw on when the weather's sliiiightly cooling down a bit. I think you did well to get as much done as you did with post-European jet lag!
ReplyDeleteThanks! The jet lag was the worst!
DeleteI love your outfit formulas,Mica! It makes getting dressed that much easier when you don't have the time and or energy to put a new look together! ;) These are both such stylish looks too: I especially love your denim jacket! It would look great with everything! XXX
ReplyDeleteso cute<3
ReplyDeleteI think the denim jacket looks great in both looks. I love how you wore your maxi skirts with it.
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful that you're getting back into a routine.

It's so good that you've created a "uniform" of sorts for yourself, and that it looks so pulled-together! My "uniform" is just jeans, a t-shirt, and sneakers! :D
ReplyDeleteAny uniform works! :)
DeleteI love this outfit formula of the denim jacket and maxi skirt! It's a great combination!

Thanks all for your lovely comments :)
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that you always accessorize, even if its just a small detail, like here with both necklaces... it makes all the difference.
