Navy Scarf, Neverfull and Colourful Skinny Jeans: Weekday Wear Link Up

Two identical outfit formulas for today's Weekday Wear Link Up, but outfits for two very different days! Both a winter staple formula of skinny jeans, blue scarves, v-neck tees and cardigans. Accessorised with my Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote bag.

What I wore:

King Island walk outfit sass and bide skinny jeans white tee cardigan bird print scarf and Louis vuitton neverfull | away from blue


Jacket: Paper Scissors grey wrap cardigan
Scarf: navy bird print scarf
TeeAtmos & Here white essential v-neck tee
JeansSass & Bide The Winning Day Lovestate jeans in magenta
BagLouis Vuitton MM damier azur neverfull

Why I wore it:

Wore this for a very fun day at Wellington Point! We were lucky to get there when the tide was out so we could go for a walk out to King Island after lunch. When the tide is out, a sand bridge appears all the way from Wellington Point right onto the island. It's the first time we've been able to walk out there with both boys since my my now 4 old was a baby. The tide has not been in our favour before. The kids enjoyed exploring the island although I did regret the walk the next day - while it's a short walk at a couple of k's there and back, walking on sand is a bit rough on my injured knee, even though I took my shoes off to do it.

I wasn't sure what the weather would be like as last time we were there it was cold and windy - so I picked a light cardigan, my navy scarf and a fun pair of magenta skinny jeans. I really like these magenta jeans with blue and the grey cardigan was a good neutral. I thought the white birds in the print matched the white v-neck tee well too! I didn't end up taking this cardigan off - it was a warm day but the sea breeze meant I kept my arms covered. Although it was busy on the beach it was nice everyone kept their distance!






What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest waterfall drape cardigan in navy night sky marle
ScarfStella McCartney heart print scarf
TeeAtmos & Here black essential v-neck tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Harper skinny pant in Russet
ShoesNew Balance white and blue sneakers
BagLouis Vuitton MM damier azur neverfull

Why I wore it:

A bit of a darker outfit for this cooler day! With the wet weather we headed to our local shopping centre for a bit of a browse and to pick up a few groceries. This was before the recent COVID cases in Brisbane, we are back to shopping online 99% of the time now! But it was good to get some presents for an upcoming birthday party, and treat ourselves to some new books (the kids got some Disney ones) and a Boost juice. They had a colour burst promo on so I decided to try the blue smoothie - not only was it delicious it is the first time I'd have a blue smoothie and I had to get a pic as it matched the blues in my outfit so well!

The Stella McCartney heart print scarf was a bit of matchy-matchy too, with the black in the print matching the black v-neck tee. I liked the navy cardigan with the scarf too, even though they are different shades of blue I think it worked well. The burgundy jeans added a little extra colour and the Louis Vuitton neverfull bag carried all of our water bottles and some snacks for the boys, as well as all of my essentials, so I didn't need to carry the baby bag as well.



How You Can Wear It:

Navy scarves go with so much! For something a little different you can try wearing them with colourful jeans instead of the classic blue denim. It's a good way to add more colour to a classic jeans, tee and cardigan outfit in winter.

  3. It sounds like fun to be able to walk across a sand bridge to a fun island - I bet your boys loved it! Too bad about your knee, do you know what's wrong with it? I can't remember how you injured it. My knees act up from time to time,ugh, it's no fun!
    That Stella McCartney scarf is fabulous!

  7. I am sorry the walk hurt your knee, it looks so pretty and peaceful! I love your scarves and I sure hope I do a better job at wearing mine this fall and winter: I really did great at on my denim jackets this past year so I need to do the same with my scarves: maybe have a couple scarf days a week: I have some cute ones too.

  8. The sand bridge and island sound fun! I'm sorry about your knee! I've had knee problems for years and it's so frustrating when you do something fun and suffer later.

  9. Argh....I just typed a long comment but it disappeared.:( Anyhoo, just wanna say how I love both these coloured jeans, and really awesome to see how they pair well with colours that I didn't think would work well with them! Yay for being able to go to King Island, but I do hope your knee is feeling better. XOXO

  14. I love love love those magenta pants with your navy scarf! What a great color combo! Sounds like a lovely day spent along the water. We used to have a beach house in Washington state and I miss being by the water so much. And that's so cool that a sand bridge appears at low tide!! Hope you're having a great Monday so far.

  21. How exciting it must have been to walk to the island along a sand bridge! Your outfit does look perfect for the day, incorporating all elements to keep you warm in that sea breeze. The magenta jeans, grey wrap cardi and navy bird print scarf are delightful together. This is beyond doubt my favourite of the two outfits. That Stella McCartney scarf is fabulous too! Wishing you a lovely week ahead, Mica! xxx

    It sounds like you had a nice day at the beach (even if it was painful later)! I'd love to be able to walk to an island, but we don't really have anything like that here :)

  55. Mica, it is no fun having knee pain. I injured my knee a year ago and am still having issues. I know at some point I will need to go have it looked at, but with Covid and just busyness, I have yet to do that. I am finding if I wear a brace (I use a stretchy one that just slides over my foot and up to my knee and fits under my pants), and take Ibuprofen in the morning, it is a lot less painful, even when I am cleaning or walking on it. I hope yours gets better soon. You look lovely friend and what a beautiful day for an outing! - Amy

  60. Your beach OOTD is super cozy! It must be cold there since you're layered up! I love the way the scarf popped out and your cardi has a lovely length! You look glowing and gorgeous! I'm sorry to hear about your knee as it must have been tough to walk comfortably when you feel pain. The sand can be tough to walk on even with a pair of okay knees, as the weight of the body pushes into the ground. The seaside looks beautiful and that's a good thing people kept their distance :) The second look made me realize something: You look amazing in blue! Just like when you wear mustard yellow :D xoxo
