What I wore:
Scarf: Louis Vuitton monogram shawl in bleu
Tank: Jeanswest 'Josie' striped back strap tank
Jeans: Nobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta
Why I wore it:
I really liked this outfit! Didn't exactly keep me as warm as I'd hoped in the morning though, the three-quarter length sleeves on the cardigan were a bit chilly for the school drop off. Of course by the school pick up in the afternoon I was feeling like the cardigan and scarf were a bit too warm together!This Louis Vuitton monogram shawl is so cosy and warm. I really like the pop of colour it gives to the striped tank, and pink and blue being a go-to favourite colour of mine I liked the magenta Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag with this cobalt blue too.
Was a quiet day at home most of the time, aside from the school pickup and drop off and grabbing another loaf of bread on the way home.
Last worn: grey cardigan, Louis Vuitton shawl, stripe tank, Nobody Denim skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag.
Other ways to wear: grey cardigan and purple jeans, Louis Vuitton shawl and maxi skirt, stripe tank in the office, Nobody Denim skinny jeans in monochrome outfit, Converse for long-haul flight, Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag and shorts.
Perfect for pregnancy: stripe tank in second trimester, Converse in third trimester.
Rebecca Minkoff Edie Crossbody Bag Review:
What I wore:
Scarf: Marc by Marc Jacobs mauve square scarf
Tank: Atmos & Here Oregon stripe tank
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta
Why I wore it:
Unlike the outfit above, this outfit felt really warm, all day! I felt a bit overdressed in this thick knitted cardigan as we walked around the shopping centre in the morning after school drop off. We had to try find a pair of shoes for my youngest boy, but thankfully he liked the first pair we tried on. We went to a proper kids shoe store which is not normally where I'd buy the kids shoes, as they ruin them quite quickly, but they had a sale on so it wasn't too bad. We'd had no luck at Kmart, Target or Big W as they are all suffering from low stock levels because of the virus impacts to imports. Although I think the Target stocking issues may partly be due to them closing down so many stores as well? (Our Aussie brands are different from the US ones and so our Kmarts are taking over closing Target stores). Just gives me more reasons to stay home though - not a lot to browse through in the shops!This was a very dark outfit with the black tank and cardigan, and the grey jeans. I think that the purple scarf and the magenta bag were just the right touches of colour with it, and purple and pink is another colour combination I really enjoy.
Last worn: black wrap cardigan, purple scarf, striped tank, grey skinny jeans, Converse (above), Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag (above).
Other ways to wear: black wrap cardigan and skater dress, purple scarf and matching jeans, striped tank and blazer, grey skinny jeans and leopard print, Converse and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag and sundress.
Perfect for pregnancy: black wrap cardigan and hidden second trimester bump, Converse in second trimester.
How You Can Wear It:
Bright bags and scarves add the perfect touch of colour to a neutral layered winter outfit. For a little extra pop you can pick two different colours for your accessories like I have here.
Oh WOW, you look absolutely amazing!!
ReplyDeleteI really love this outfit...and that scarf is such a beautiful colour, really eye catching! I like the bag too. It is so pretty and feminine.😊😊
Have a great day...and stay safe.

That pretty blue scarf is stunning. I love that shade on you - brightens up winter wear for sure! Have a great weekend Mica!
ReplyDeletexo,
Kellyann
It is such a great shade! perfect with neutral winter layers!
DeleteYou have great scarves, and they are so beautiful color on you!
ReplyDeleteYou outfits are casual and elegant with the beautiful bag<3

It's really cool outfit! your new bag and scarf are beautiful! )))
ReplyDeleteI love both outfits on you:) That RM bag really pairs well with the colours on your outfits! And stocks are low here where we are too...the thing is that it's weird stuff that you wouldn't think will be hard to get, but alas, such as life nowadays.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
This pandemic has changed life so much, it's strange to see!
DeleteYou look so nice running your errands. I love both scarves and the pretty magenta bag. Kids outgrow their shoes so fast, don't they?
ReplyDeleteThey do! It's only a few months a year they need closed in shoes for winter so I didn't realise they had outgrown them until it was too late, haha! They wear sandals most of the year.
DeleteBeautiful bag.
ReplyDeleteWhat an impact that bright scarf has!! And that bag will go with practically everything. I rarely wear monochromatic. In fact, I told Kellyann that I have only tried it once or twice when she recently shared an all white look. Need to break out of my shell!! You gals inspire me to do so.
ReplyDeleteGlad we can inspire you! I love my bright scarves, they add a punch to a monochrome outfit! :)
DeleteYou can't go wrong with a stripy top, whatever the season. The beautiful blue scarf and magenta bag add welcome pops of colour to your outfits. I've been embracing longer cardigans lately. Loving both of yours, but can imagine the first one being a tiny bit too chilly for the school drop-off. I think it would even be to chilly for the mediocre Summer weather we've been having lately! Hope you had a good week, and wishing you the best of weekends, Mica! xxx
ReplyDeletecardigans are the best - I really got into them while breastfeeding as I needed soft zip free options, and I've got quite a collection now!
DeleteYour coloured accessories really make these outfits, Mica! I love how nice and bright they are. This is how you do coloured shoes, by the way - just deploy them with your neutral outfits, same as you would with a scarf or bag. I think you need some bright Converses!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend, my friend!
haha yes! my converse get so much love in the cooler weather, I should try a bright pair! I've always admired my friend's yellow pair!
Deletethe cobalt blue scarf goes so well with the berry colored purse! i am missing Fall & Winter again!...but it's always here before I know it...xo Eva
ReplyDeleteOne pop of color with a neutral outfit is my go to formula in clothing, but my pop of color usually is a red lipstick, ha!
ReplyDeleteThat is a fun pop! I find red lipstick too hard, although I've tried it a few times!
DeleteI love a neutral outfit with a pop of color! It's not a combination I wear often myself for some reason, but looking at your outfits, I'm going to have to try to remedy that :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a wonderful weekend.

It's a really easy way to wear bright accessories, I think you will like it if you give it a go!
DeleteI always think you do a great job of adding color to your outfits Mica...those scarves do the trick too.

Thanks, I've been trying to be more colourful lately! :)
DeleteWhat a beautiful LV blue scarf! It is such a pretty shade and matches with your eye nicely. It is always good to have a pop of colour. I love both pops of colours in your outfits. The mini RM bag is a lovely pop of colour as well. The outfit itself is cute. I like the striped tee with the leggings and the long cardi. Striped t-shirts are such a classic, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love this shade of blue! And yes, stripes will always be a classic! :) They are jeans :)
DeleteThe second outfit is cute too. That knit cardigan does look very warm.
ReplyDeleteI like both outfits on you and the handbag is pretty and I love the color. Have a nice weekend Mica.
ReplyDeleteIts so hard to find any kids clothing and shoe right now. Glad you find your son a pair.

Yes it's been surprising seeing what the shortages have been!
DeleteI love the color of your Rebecca Minkoff bag! The Louis Vuitton shawl looks so rich!! It is great that you paired some nice colors together hehe. I've been thinking about getting a little crossbody. I feel like my monogram bag is way too big most of the time @__@! Have a great weekend sis!

I find crossbody bags perfect for just the essentials - if I need more I usually put it in the baby bag along with the wipes and snacks and kids water bottles, haha!
DeleteI love the pop of color with the scarves!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, both looks are so beautiful. I love that you have added these gorgeous scarves to your outfits. They really give each look such a lovely pop of colour - and create layers that look effortless and stylish.
ReplyDeletethe creation of beauty is art.
I love the first one,
ReplyDeletehave a great weekend!

Crazy to think of that heat while we are in the middle of winter, haha! :)
DeleteBoth of these outfits are so cute, I especially love the bright colors in the first look. Ahh, shoe shopping with kids--not always the most fun. I'm glad you found some though!
ReplyDeleteYes I was a bit worried I wouldn't find anything! Glad they had what we needed! :)
DeleteThe colourful scarfs are such a great and fun accessory, you can add a splash of colour with minimum effort and great result of your outfit

I love the injection of colour, the scarfs are perfect for it. Unexpensive accessory can make wonders for the outfit.

Thanks all for your lovely comments :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful mix with the magenta and a bright scarf.
ReplyDeleteI can imagine this being done in so many ways, such a great look.
This is a recipe I'd love to try.
