Two Ways To Wear A Navy V-Neck Tee: Jeanswest Sophie V-Neck Tee

This navy tee is one of the ones I picked up from Jeanswest during my massive Christmas gift card shopping spree. They'd only brought out into the store that day (the sales assistant had trouble scanning it) and so it was perfect timing! While I love blue I didn't have a navy v-neck tee. So pleased I do now! It works so well with the other pieces I have in my wardrobe, and I'm wearing it two different ways below.

What I wore:

Rebecca Minkoff small Darren messenger bag in peony with monochromatic blue outfit | awayfromtheblue

Necklace: Kmart pink multi-colour beaded necklace
TeeJeanswest Sophie navy v-neck tee
SkirtAlly Fashion blue border print floral maxi skirt
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
BagRebecca Minkoff small Darren messenger bag in peony

Why I wore it:

Just knew I had to pair this navy tee with this blue maxi skirt. Something my mum got me for Christmas, this skirt has been on frequent repeat lately as it's so perfect for summer! I really liked the navy with the brighter blue of the skirt, and accessorising was so simple. The blush necklace and peony pink Rebecca Minkoff Darren bag work so well with the pink flowers in the floral print.

This was a quick and easy outfit to pull together to head over to my friends house to watch Church Online. The maxi skirt accommodated the knee brace I've been wearing when I have to drive long distances, even though she just lives 30 minutes away driving really aggravates my knee after I injured it after Christmas.

Really liked all the colours in this outfit, made my matchy-matchy self very happy, especially when I added the navy and pink Havaianas to stick with the colour scheme, haha!


Last worn: floral maxi skirt, pink beaded necklace, navy Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff Darren messenger bag. First time I've worn the navy tee as it's a recent purchase.

TeeJeanswest Sophie navy v-neck tee
ShortsJeanswest Tessa olive embroidered shorts
ShoesNew Balance white and blue sneakers
BagRebecca Minkoff micro Regan satchel in Harvest Gold

Why I wore it:

These embroidered soft shorts are a summer fave for me and I like wearing them with blue - I added the navy tee and couldn't resist wearing this blue tie-dye kimono too, I thought all the blue went so nicely together with the olive. I added even more colour with the mustard Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan bag for a bit of a contrast, and my little turquoise tassel necklace which I often wear with green.

A nice comfortable and colourful outfit for walking along the bike trail and then visiting the park with the boys. I didn't wear my knee brace, instead I put on my old but supportive New Balance sneakers to help reduce the impact on my injured knee as we walked around. The boys could scoot and cycle much faster than I could limp along, but luckily hubby was there to help and keep an eye on them if they went too far while I trailed behind, haha! It was a hot day so the kimono wasn't really needed, but it was nice to have some extra sun protection for my arms.


Last worn: tie-dye kimono, navy tee (above), tassel necklace, olive embroidered shorts, sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan.

Navy V-Neck Tees Under $50:





How You Can Wear It:

A navy v-neck tee is a great wardrobe basic to have! It's the perfect neutral. It looks good with other neutrals like olive and is a fun base for pink or yellow accessories like these Rebecca Minkoff bags.

Linking up with Monday Runway.

  3. I don't think I have ever owned a navy blue v-neck - that seems crazy! Seems like such a good staple. Love it with that pretty blue skirt and you know I have a heart for kimonos. Have a super weekend Mica!

  4. I like how you paired your navy tee with a blue maxi skirt. The outfit with the military green shorts and a navy tee is lovely as well. I also like the kimono you wore with the second outfit. This navy tee with a V neckline looks great with both outfits. V-necks are always flattering as they make our neck look longer, I need to remember to wear them more often. I'm very partial to polo necks but I also like V-necks.

  5. I love the first outfit, Mica! The navy tee looks great with that pretty skirt! I love your pink bag with it too! Navy tops are so versatile and look great with everything! Hope you have a wonderful weekend, Mica! ;) XXX

  6. I love it with the maxi skirt. I really like wearing navy actually. I bought a navy jumper recently and it's such a versatile colour xo Sarah | Oomph London

  7. This makes me realize that I don't have a navy t-shirt in my closet and I think I need to acquire one - it's break up my usually black wardrobe pretty nicely. Yours looks great!

  8. You always look so nice and I love the shorts and tee with the kimono. I think I will buy a kimono for my daughter for spring. Hope you have a nice Valentine's Day and weekend.

  9. A navy v is the perfect addition to your closet! I have one but it's getting a little old (and some nice armpit stains) so might be time to replace soon, haha!

  10. I'm so weird about V-necks. I have to find just the right V - to fit my body, the V is too long & then I gotta wear a tank under it - then it feels too heavy. BLAH

    1. Yes! I find I often size up or down to get the right v length, haha! Definitely something I try on first!

  13. I've had a love/hate relationship with navy throughout my life, mainly because of high school uniforms! But for that past couple of yours, I really have embraced navy and I do own quite a few navy items of clothing. I'm loving your first outfit the most. I think it's very playful and fun. The navy tee looks fabulous styled with the floral maxi skirt and that necklace, which somehow reminds me of candy! Wishing you a wonderful weekend, Mica! xxx

  14. I do hope you can stop wearing the knee brace soon, Mica. But you look great in both outfits:) The navy blue really suits you. And those NB sneakers do look so comfy. I need to upgrade my sneakers soon but it's a no-buy year so I have to wait til next year:)

  15. What? MICA didn't own a navy blue tee? What is the world coming to!? ;-P Just teasing you, of course! I like the second outfit - the addition of the kimono and the pop of yellow really makes it for me.

    Good for you for wearing sensible shoes to baby your knee. Take care of that now - it doesn't get any better as you age (sorry!).

    Have a wonderful weekend, and I know you don't really do Valentine's Day in Australia, but how about "Gal"entine's Day? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galentine%27s_Day

  16. That tee was such a great purchase you will get lots of wear from! Navy goes with everything and looks really cute in both of these outfits!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Ah yes a solid navy tee is a no brainer, I have a nice one I wear in the warmer months. It looks equally well with bright blue skirt as well as army green shorts. And pink and yellow bags are the perfect pops of color!

  22. I absolutely love the pink bag! It’s beautiful against the navy color. I also really like the navy v-neck. It’s a great wardrobe staple and a nice way to switch up from basic black! It’s also really versatile and you’re able to wear it so many different ways. Great job on styling your outfits, they look great!

  26. I don't have a navy t-shirt, either, and I don't know why, Mica. It's definitely one of the colors I like wearing most. I think I need to find a T-shirt style I love and just get a bunch of them in all the colors. It pairs perfectly with the beautiful maxi and I love the Minkoff bag! Blush pink is the perfect accent color for this look. The second look is a nice way to look more dressed than if you just throw on shorts and a tee shirt (I love those embroidered shorts and olive and navy are just such complimentary colors). And I really love that you decided to go with the mustard bag with that look. Such a pretty bag, too!

    I hope you're having a wonderful weekend. We had brunch out this morning and will do our Valentine's lunch tomorrow. Too much food and too many sweets!

    1. Oh yes to finding a style and buying it in all the colours - i think I have every shade jeanswest has released these staple tees in - although I did see a pink one the other day I don't have yet...haha! I'm definitely a fan of buying things in multiple colours when you love them!

  27. I like this casual tee, looks great with maxi skirt and short.

  28. A v-neck tee is always a great buy! And good thinking wearing the maxi skirt with your knee brace. I should have considered getting a few maxi skirts back when I had my leg wrapped with my foot injury because it was pretty annoying trying to get leggings and skinny jeans around the soft cast!

  30. I love how you styled the v-neck with different outfit options. Navy is so easy to pair because it's not a popping color. It is very subtle and easy on the eyes. I love that you have different bags for every occasion!! Have a great weekend, Mica!!

  34. I have to admit I rarely wear v-neck tees but your outfits make me think that I should change it! Both looks are for sure simple but very beautiful and I can see you like this looks to wear. The first look is indeed perfect for watching church online and the 2nd look for a walk like you had. Hopefully your knee is better now!

  41. I love the colour navy but other than one pair of culottes, I'm struggling to think of any clothes I own in the colour which seems odd now I'm thinking about it. I think I might need to grab a navy tee too, it looks lovely with so many things x
