Two Ways To Wear: Green Jeans and Printed Tanks

These green jeans have been on repeat lately! A lucky opshop find two years ago, they were just $5. I've been so close to 30 wears with them, and thanks to my frequent rewearing this spring I have a 30 wears post coming up next week with them!

Wore them very simply for breezy spring days with printed tanks, sneakers and little Rebecca Minkoff crossbody bags.

What I wore:

Necklace: navy and silver circle pendant tassel necklace
Top: Jeanswest 'Rowena' print tank
Jeans: thrifted ASOS petite green skinny jeans
ShoesNew Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
BagRebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC

Why I wore it:

While I've shared outfits with these sneakers before on the blog, this was the first time I wore them out. I wanted to try a sporty kind of look but I don't really have a sporty wardrobe! Decided to go with the printed tank, the green jeans for a bit of colour and my little Rebecca Minkoff silver crossbody bag as it goes with everything!

It was threatening to rain and a pretty overcast morning, and a little windy, but we took a chance after school drop off and went to my fave trail to test out my new shoes properly. Luckily it didn't rain, and we had the whole place to ourselves! Usually even though we don't see other people due to the nature of the trail we see a car or two in the carpark, but not a single other person was there. It was wonderfully relaxing! My shoes held up pretty well too, I'm glad I replaced my old ones with these, although I hope my knee injury continues to heal so I can get back to regular shoes more often and don't need to wear these as much!

BagRebecca Minkoff MAB Camera Bag in almond

Why I wore it:

Surprisingly, despite wearing stripes with these green skinny jeans a lot, I hadn't worn this striped tank with them before! I was sure I had, but looking back on the blog I can see I haven't! It's a really easy pairing, colourful jeans and a printed tank, just the same as the outfit above, but the different print changes it up a little. Was very comfortable for the school run and working from home on another breezy day.

Picked a neutral bag, this little tan Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag that hadn't been worn in a while. And to match the white tank I went with my white converse All Stars. Such a good combination, and one I've worn before, I like the matchy-matchy of the tank and shoes together.


How You Can Wear It:

A printed tank - in any print - is an easy choice with a colourful pair of jeans. It works well for spring and is easy to layer up a little with a cardigan or denim jacket in the cooler weather.

  4. Your brown-toned neutrals work so well with these bright emerald jeans, Mica! I love LOVE the leopard top with them in the first outfit - your touches of black in the necklace and sneakers are perfect to tie the leopard and green together. I like the stripes in the second outfit - I mean, who doesn't love a good stripe? - and the tan bag is so good with it. But that first outfit "wins" for me.

    PS - I think you should decorate the whole house! :) Tell your hubby it's a mental health thing - it'll make you feel happier ;-P

  5. Those emerald green jeans are such a gorgeous colour and I can't get over the fact that they were only $ 5!
    Your first outfit, with the printed top and silver bag appealed to me the most.
    I'm glad to hear your sneakers are comfortable to wear, but I can imagine you are looking forward to wearing regular shoes again!
    Wishing you a wonderful weekend, Mica xxx

  18. I definitely need some decent tank tops in my wardrobe! They are such a staple yet any I have are flimsy and see-through so I tend to avoid. To the shops I go!

  24. Oh, you look so adorable in both of these outfits. I love the striped top and green jeans combo. Paired with converse and a chic brown bag, it's such a pretty styling. I also really like the first combo with the longer brown tee and a statement necklace.
