Waterfall Cardigans, Printed Shorts And V-Neck Tees With Rebecca Minkoff Mini MAC

It's been a very hot spring so far in Brisbane but the mornings and evenings started out a little cooler, so I decided to add some cardigans to my shorts and tee outfits to keep me warm. Even if I did end up taking both cardigans off by lunchtime 😂

Tee: Spectrum basic v-neck tee in grey marl
ShortsJeanswest Parker printed shirred short
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
BagRebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC

Why I wore it:

I really like pink and purple together and I like how this purpley-magenta cardigan works so nicely with the neon pink Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag. They were fun accessories with the monochromatic grey tee and black printed shirt too. The cardigan became much too hot halfway round the trail the kids were biking and scooting around so I quickly took it off. Had been perfect in the colder start to the day though.

Nice quiet day with the kids, shorts and tee and Converse was a great outfit, even if the cardigan didn't stay on long.

BagRebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC

Why I wore it:

This navy cardigan didn't stay on long at all! It had seemed like a nice idea in the morning but I quickly realised during swimming lessons that it was far too hot for it, and left it in the car!

I did like the way the navy cardigan worked so well with the navy printed shorts and the bright mustard tee, just was a much warmer day than I anticipated! I like mustard and navy together, and although the yellow in the print on the shorts is lemon I think the mustard tee paired nice with it and was a fun pop of colour with the navy. I went a little matchy-matchy with my accessories, wearing my metallic silver mini MAC bag and also my glittery silver sneakers.

Waterfall Cardigans Under $50:



How You Can Wear It:
In spring and autumn, cardigans are great layers to add for the cooler mornings and evenings and aren't too bulky to pop in a bag if you take them off during the day. You can try wearing your cardigans with printed shorts when you know the day is going to heat up, using the cardigan to add more colour like I did in the first outfit, or matching the print in the shorts like I did in the second outfit.

  1. I love the pink and the purple in your first look too. Such a great combo. That cardi is so cute. Lovely bag as well. You look very fresh. I like the second styling just as much. The touch of yellow with the top is simply perfect. Fab tee and shorts combo.
    Have a fab week ahead!

  2. I love a waterfall cardigan. I wore mine yesterday (had a doctor's appointment and I hate going in my grubby work clothes, so I wore a dark tee for work and threw on my waterfall cardi and replaced the tennies with loafer-style shoes and was good to go). I've never tried wearing it with shorts, though. It's a great idea for the cooler mornings and evenings (it's fall here and we're going through the same things - warm days but cool mornings and evenings) and it looks super cute! I love the purple and hot pink together, too! I really love that silver bag in the second set and it's perfect with the silver sneakers! Thanks so much for the link-up! I hope your week is going beautifully!

  6. You are the queen of colour combo, Mica (and wearing maxis, of course:)). Thanks for the inspo. Love both outfits. The waterfall cardi is such a great piece for any season IMO. I only have one, and have been meaning to sew a few but laziness...:P

  7. Ha, same story here. Cardigans are a nice idea for the morning but they sure don't last long. Great color choices, Mica! I especially love that "boysenberry" duster.

  12. That's the best thing about cardigans...they keep us warm when we need them, and are easy to take off when we don't.

  13. I love these cardis - you really can never go wrong with a nice drapey one like these. The thing I really like about both of these outfits are the bright pops of colour: the pink bag in the first outfit against the purple cardi (LOVE) and the deep yellow with the soft blue. You look good in colour, Mica!

  15. Cardigans are such a necessity - I really love a waterfall cardi - just so much more interesting than a plain one. Our mornings start off cool in spring and then the heat gets intense by noon - our weather sounds so similar!

  18. We do experience a pretty warm autumn here too, although I do need a jacket whenever I leave the house.
    Cardigans are great for the transition phase though, I wear them a lot.

  30. It is always fun to see your outfits because of the different seasons you all have! My brother lives in Thailand and said that the beef they have is imported from Australia. I am assuming he has the same season as you!

  33. The cardigans looked great with both outfits, even though you did end up taking them off.

    I especially like the second look. I also really like the combination of mustard and navy.
