Tee: Cotton On "The One" fitted v tee in Cole stripe white moonlight
Jeans: thrifted ASOS petite green skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB Camera Bag in almond
Why I wore it:
I really like green with yellow, and it's not the first time I've worn these green skinny jeans with yellow. I loved the bright combination, nice and cheerful for a wet day. It started raining on me as I took these pics!Thankfully we didn't get too wet at school pick up and drop off, and the rest of the day I was working from home so I was cosy and dry. Jeans and a tee is a perfect work from home outfit, and this cardigan was a much dressier alternative for keeping warm than my daggy old bathrobe when I had a zoom call 😂
With the turquoise tassel necklace adding a little more colour too I went with a neutral bag, this Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag is a classic that goes with so much.
Last worn: mustard cardigan, stripe tee, turquoise tassel necklace, green skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag.
Other ways to wear: mustard cardigan and navy dress, stripe tee worn two ways, green skinny jeans with blue, Converse and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag and floral dresses.
Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB Camera Bag in almond
Why I wore it:
This was inspired by an outfit I saw on Instagram on theshoestringshopper. As soon as I saw her orange and yellow outfit I wanted to try it myself with this orange tee and my mustard yellow cardigan. She was inspired by someone else to try it too, it's good seeing how inspiration spreads on Instagram!I really liked this combo! It was something very different for me and I did feel very visible for school pickup and drop off and sitting on the sidelines of the gym as my son returned to his regular sports sessions. Feels like life is getting so busy now that things are reopening, but it's good to return to regular routines.
Despite a busy evening, we still had plenty of time for a browse in Kmart after dropping my eldest son off at school. No luck getting more pantry containers I'd hoped for, the stock shortage is painfully clear in many aisles. My little one did help me pick out some more Little People, Big Dreams books for our collection though! Kmart has them for $8 each, half the price of everywhere else I've seen them.
Stuck with the Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag to balance out the brights, as well as my grey skinny jeans as black felt a bit too harsh.
Last worn: mustard cardigan (above), marigold tee, tortoiseshell necklace, grey skinny jeans, Converse (above), Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag (above).
Other ways to wear: mustard cardigan and chambray skirt, marigold tee over a dress, grey skinny jeans and leopard print, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag and maxi dress.
Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in third trimester.
How You Can Wear It:
Mustard is a very versatile shade of yellow! You can use a mustard cardigan to bring some colour to darker or neutral winter layers. It works equally well paired with other bright things in your outfit too like the green skinny jeans or the orange tee.
$2!! Now that is a bargain and it suits you so well! x
ReplyDeleteIt really was a great bargain!
DeleteLove all the colors.
ReplyDeleteGood reminder for me to pull out my mustard cardi - I haven't worn it the last few years, it used to be one of my very favorites! Have a super weekend Mica!
ReplyDeletexo,
Kellyann
Glad I could inspire you to get it out again!
DeleteWhat a fantastic buy, Mica! I am loving mustard at the moment and this cardi looks great with both outfits. I like both colour combos, but the second one is great because it's a new colour combo that I haven't tried before either! Hope you have a wonderful weekend! I'm still getting over a cold, so I plan to rest up this weekend! ;) XXX
ReplyDeleteHope you recovered quickly! :)
DeleteI really like the color combo in the second outfit as well - and yes, things reopening make you realize how busy your life was before lockdown.
ReplyDeleteI have a mustard cardigan that I love. I would not have thought of pairing it with bright colors!
ReplyDeleteThey match so well! Love the colour combo
ReplyDeleteI wish I hadn't gotten rid of my short mustard cardigan but I really didn't like how it looked on me. So now I have my long kimono which I can try with similar outfits!
ReplyDeletewww.chezmireillefashiontravelmom.com
Your kimono is so pretty, great idea! :)
DeleteLooks great with the green trousers :-D
ReplyDeletestunning mix and match! the mustard cardigan looks good on you
ReplyDeleteI love that green and yellow colour combination! It looks fantastic. I also really adore your use of colour in the second look as well. You make mixing and matching different colours seem so easy and effortless! I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeletethe creation of beauty is art.
Love the video & hearing your voice :)
ReplyDeleteTHat orange and yellow together is so bright and beautiful Mica. I'll have to try that.

I need to try it more often, it was fun!
DeleteWhat a great deal for that cardigan! I really like it with the brighter yellow!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing outfit! The cardigan is just super! Its color is beautiful and versatile. I love your style so much!
ReplyDeleteI've been looking for mustard cardigans for a while. Though, I probably won't be buying that many clothes now that I'm not going out as much. I love that the mustard yellow cardigan goes well with green and different colors! Pretty cool that you've taken advantage of Kmart! Ours are closed in LA :(.
ReplyDeleteNancy ✨ exquisitely.me
Yes I've been buying less staying home more too! It's a shame you don't have Kmarts any more - here they are taking over closing Target stores.
DeleteLove your cardigan, looks so versatile
ReplyDeleteand I bet it looks good on certain dresses too.

That mustard cardigan was definitely a bargain, wasn't it? I love it worn both with the green jeans and the orange tee. For me, wearing bright colours makes everything better in every season! I hope your weekend is going well, and you've got some fun things planned! xxx
ReplyDeleteYour outfits are so sunny and cheerful! You look great in yellow! :) I don't know if I've ever said this, but I love your YouTube videos too! You have such a calming vibe (and I need all the calming things these days, haha!)!

Two bucks is a great deal Mica - and I can only imagine the cost per wear you will take it to!
ReplyDeleteHoping to get it past 30 wears! :)
DeleteGreat price, such a bargain and I really like it with the green jeans.

Mustard is such a gorgeous shade & it always reminds me that I need to add more pops of colour to my generally blue-schemed wardrobe :') Love how you styled this cardi! xx
ReplyDeleteMustard works so well with blue! :)
DeleteA beautiful combination! I love the video! Idk why but I'm always intrigued by that type of content, and always end up changing the contents of my bag afterwards.
ReplyDeleteLindifique
Thanks! I do a lot of those kinds of videos on my channel :)
DeleteThat mustard cardigan is a like a little slice of sunshine and I like how you styled it with other bright colors.
ReplyDeleteYou look great in both combos but I really love the green skinny jeans and mustard cardigan look. That bag really pops too!
ReplyDeleteHead over heels for the matching of all these magical bright colours! :) The pairing of mustard, orange and green is so fun and you style these looks so dreamily. Pops of vibrant colours are always so uplifting and positive to see too! The green jeans work perfectly with the mustard and I adore the orange and yellow tones! I agree it's good to return to regular routines once more! Wishing you the happiest week ahead :)

Trying to find me some fun colored jeans. I've been looking at a lot of fun Fall outfits that I want to try. Thinking I might need to add a mustard cardigan to my list too...

Opshops have a lot of great pieces, I got the cardigan and green jeans from two different opshops!
DeleteWhat an awesome find on the cardigan. I have yet to try mustard yellow with green.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.amysfashionblog.com/blog-home
Wow, that cardigan was such a great find! I love how it brightens up both looks. I never used to like yellow much but I've come to love it.
ReplyDeleteLove the mustard - looks good with both the green and the jeans. I'm a bright color gal. The books sound great too!

Mustard is a great shade of yellow! This looks amazing on you, Mica! I love it with the green. I'm not quite sure that the bright orange is the right tone with it, but I'm not complaining that you are wearing bright colours! Love them, and such a great score on the cardi. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sheila! it was the only pieces I had to try the combo but I'll need to think a little more to see if there are other ways I can try it, I like it! :)
DeleteMustard is such a cute color! I am loving your cardigan!

You make me want a yellow cardi! Both outfits are so popping! I just love how you went all out with the color-blocking and I'm so inspired to try to match bold colors like you do here. You look so very bright and beautiful in both outfits! Also, I'm in love with your camera bag. It's such a nice size and oh so chic! Your grey skinnies are perfect and I really need to find myself a marigold tee! Such a sunny tone :O xoxo
ReplyDeleteThank you! it is a fun colour to wear! :)
DeleteThanks all for your kind comments :)
