What I wore:
Shirt: Jeanswest 'Ruby' mixed print shirt
Jeans: Jeanswest Vicki skinny pant in moss green
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs metallic mouse flats
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff emerald green mini 5-zip rocker bag
Why I wore it:
In case you missed me sharing the news on Instagram, this fluffy and very curious dog is our temporary foster family member while we dogsit. She loves coming up to me while I'm taking photos and trying to figure out what I'm doing, it can make taking photos a little tricky!I was eager to wear my new Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag after I bought it on eBay, and I knew this green statement necklace would be the perfect match with it. I've worn it with olive jeans before so knew I'd like this combination, and this printed shirt is an easy simple piece to make my jeans a little more dressed up for the office. But when your boss wears jeans you don't really need to try too hard to dress up denim!
Last worn: mixed print shirt, green statement necklace, olive skinny jeans, gold mouse flats. It's the first time I've worn the bag on the blog as it's a recent purchase.
Other ways to wear: mixed print shirt and shorts, olive skinny jeans for long haul flight, gold mouse flats and wrap dress.
Perfect for pregnancy: mixed print shirt in first trimester, gold mouse flats in third trimester.
My Favourite Rebecca Minkoff Bag:
What I wore:
Necklace: thrifted red flat bead necklace
Shirt: Target mint stripe shirtPants: Jeanswest 'Fiona' skinny leg pant in shiraz
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs logo plaque flats in camel
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff red micro Avery cross body bag
Why I wore it:
I've worn this mint striped shirt with the burgundy pants before and really liked the combination, so I thought I'd wear it again. A classic button up shirt is great for the office, and this one is a comfortable linen. It does however start to look quickly crumpled through the day, and was more noticeable as I left the sleeves down this time instead of rolling them up.The red and burgundy combo was a new one for me to try - this thrifted necklace pairs so nicely with the red Rebecca Minkoff micro Avery bag and I thought they would be a fun combo together with the pants.
Didn't like this as much as last time I wore this shirt and pants together though, I think since I was trying the red and burgundy I should have went with a more neutral shirt. Very comfortable outfit for a busy day at work though!
Last worn: mint striped shirt, red statement necklace, burgundy pants, camel ballet flats, Rebecca Minkoff micro Avery tote bag.
Other ways to wear: mint striped shirt and pencil skirt, burgundy pants and embroidered blouse, camel ballet flats and sheath dress, Rebecca Minkoff micro Avery tote bag and shorts.
Perfect for pregnancy: mint striped shirt in second trimester, burgundy pants in first trimester, camel ballet flats in third trimester.
Printed Shirts Under $50:
How You Can Wear It:
A classic printed shirt works well in the office to bring a little interest to corporate separates. For something a little more fun, you can try pairing a printed shirt with colourful pants, or sneaking a pair of jeans into your outfit like I have with the first one if you work in a less formal environment.Weekday Wear Linkup #35

ReplyDeleteThe dog is funny. It's nice of you to dogsit. My dog likes to hang around when we're taking pictures too.
Matching accessories to your handbag is a great way to add some interest. I like the green so much - one of my favorite shades!
Have a super week!

DeleteYou know how much I love things that match, Mica! So it won't be a surprise to you when I say how much I love the idea of matching bags to necklaces! ;) I really like your first outfit! The print on the shirt is really pretty and I love the necklace and bag complementing each other so well! I love the mouse flats too! Thanks for the linkup! Hope you have a wonderful week, Mica! XXX

ReplyDeleteThe dog really looks adorable (and pretty curious!).
ReplyDeleteShe's so fascinated by picture taking, our dog cooper is over it and not interested any more, haha!
DeleteI really like that first outfit with all the green! It is a great color on you and I love all the little touches!

Looking very chic and polished at the office! Those gold metallic flats are a fun neutral!
ReplyDeleteI love the matching necklaces and bags! I really only have one or two bags i can do that with because I don't have many colored necklaces, haha
ReplyDeleteAnd such a cute puppy!

The Faceless Style
We often see people matching their shoes to their bag, but I love the idea of matching your jewelry, particularly necklace styles like what you're wearing in these looks! They really capture the eye and create a nice cohesive flow to your looks. Great styling and inspiration; thanks for sharing, beauty!

I've tried mint and burgundy before, but I love the addition of red! It's a fun bright color and compliments them both so nicely! I like the bright turquoise with olive too! Both of these outfits really shine with their bright accessories!
ReplyDeleteit was a fun colour combo to try! :)
DeleteThe matching bag and necklace is super cute:) You do have such a great bag collection! And yay for the new doggo friend (even if only for dog sitting:D)
ReplyDeleteLovely neckkaces! Thanks for hosting Mica!
ReplyDeleteYou seem to have such a relaxed dress code at work! I love the first outfit, the gold shoes look fab with the green!

I do! It's officially 'business casual' but in practice it is a lot of blue jeans worn through the week, even from the higher-ups!
DeleteLOL! I just love your little helper. I have two who are usually somewhere close to or right in the middle of things when I'm working on post photos. It can be a challenge. What great color mixes you come up with! They're not something I'd normally think of but they work out so beautifully. Definitely when you're wearing gray it's wonderful to add a pop of color and that teal is just gorgeous. I love the idea of matching the bag and just one accessory.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for hosting these linkups!

Dogs can be the cutest little helpers around though, haha! I wish our Shih Tzu was in more pics, like the early days, but he's just no longer interested!
DeleteLove the colors you chose!
ReplyDeleteThese are such great outfit ideas for the office! I love how you styled these colorful pants. Very cute!

I really like all of the green accents in your first outfit. I haven't gotten on the micro bag trend, yet. I'm tall, so I think I'd feel like I was carrying a child's purse. I like the burgundy and red together--I don't think I've put those together. Yet!
ReplyDeletebeing petite I love the mini bag trend, give me all the mini bags for my short self, haha!
DeleteLove both these colored bags, especially the green one. I've been very fond of bright teal/jade-looking colors recently.
ReplyDeleteYou look great.. you've styled the outfits beautifully as always.
ReplyDeleteI love this styling trick- it ends up looking so fun + chic!

ReplyDeleteI'm branching out so much with other colour combos! thanks for the encouragement and support Sheila! :)
