Tiered Kmart Dresses and Pink Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC Bag: Weekday Wear Link Up

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up I'm sharing some outfits where I was making the most of the warmer days with simple tiered dress outfits, accessorised with my latest purchase, the Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody bag. It's working so well in my wardrobe I'm kinda wishing I'd bought it earlier - an older style, it was on the David Jones site for a while before I caved and snapped it up when it was further reduced. It goes so well with both of these dresses, even though they are different lengths and colours!

ShoesWittner 'Jasmarie' studded sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus Roie Designs pearl beaded bracelets and Hermes pink clic clac
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig (new purchase)


Why I wore it:

Wore this to catch up with a friend I hadn't spoken to in a while after the school run. I dressed up a little to take advantage of the kid free occasion, with my eldest at work and my youngest watching a movie at home while his dad worked from home. It was nice to get out the house by myself for a bit for an hour, even if I probably overdressed for the rest of the day. I felt especially overdressed when I took my son for a haircut after the school run!

Added some fancy dangly earrings to this cute Kmart floral maxi dress I'm still not quite at 30 wears with yet, and a couple of bracelets that hadn't been worn in a while, like this Hermes clic clac and my little pearl bracelets.

Last time I tried this coral dress with a pink bag I really liked the combination, so I gave it a go again with this Rebecca Minkoff fig Jean MAC crossbody bag. I wasn't sure it was the best colour combination, but I'm glad I gave it a go for something different!

Why I wore it:

Anticipating another extremely hot day I'd planned to wear this little black tiered sundress for the school run, working from home, and taking my son to an appointment in the evening. Even though it wasn't as warm as I thought it would be, this was a great outfit to wear, so comfortable all day!

With the black dress and black New Balance sneakers I felt this pink Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC was a fun accessory again. I really liked the way it popped with the black dress! I've worn this dress with pink bags a few times and I always really enjoy the combination.

How You Can Wear It:

A strappy tiered sundress in any length is a good way to beat the heat on a hot summer day! You can dress it up with a bracelet stack and statement earrings or dress it down with a casual pair of sneakers.

  2. Your new bag is so pretty - it really does pop against the black dress and looks great with the tiered maxi too! I bet it was nice to catch up with your friend, it feels so good to be out alone with a friend when you have little kids! Hope you have a great Monday and thanks for the link up, Mica!

  10. You look cool and comfortable in your flowing printed tiered dresses, and I love the pink bag with both! Warm weather and light clothing looks so refreshing to me now, as it is pouring buckets of rain and threatening the first snow storm of the season later this week in my area! Have a good week and thanks for hosting the link up
