Blue V-Neck Tees, Denim Shorts, Navy Kimonos and Sorbet Pink Balenciaga City Bag

For today's Weekday Wear Linkup, more outfits for school holiday adventures with the kids! As we had warmer days back in April I kept it simple and fairly monochrome with blue tees and denim shorts, and blue printed kimonos. The sorbet Pink Balenciaga city bag added a little extra burst of colour with all the blue too.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Melanie floral kimono
Necklace: Colette marble and gold pendant drop long necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Shorts: Jeanswest Trinity Bermuda denim shorts
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
Bag: Balenciaga RH classic city in 2010 sorbet

Why I wore it:

This was a really fun day but required a lot of walking so I wore my comfortable New Balance sneakers to support my knee.

Wore the floral print duster for sun coverage but it was really hot and humid so I regretted it a little a couple times in the middle of the day when the heat was at the maximum. By the time we got to the beach in the afternoon though it was really breezy and I was glad I'd thrown it on top of my shorts and tee outfit.

With the baby blue tee and pale denim Bermuda shorts too the tropical floral print on the duster was a nice way to break up the monochrome look. As was the pink marble necklace and the sorbet Pink Balenciaga city bag. I was a little sad I'd chosen this bag in the afternoon though when one of the tassels snapped off, but it had been looking like it was about to fall off anyway. The bag is 11 years old so one snapped tassel isn't too bad!

What I wore:

Jacket: Cotton On Alana Wanderlust kimono in floral mood indigo
Necklace: Kmart rose gold and pink beaded necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Sophie navy v-neck tee
Shorts: thrifted Jeanswest distressed denim shorts
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
Bag: Balenciaga RH classic city in 2010 sorbet 

Why I wore it:

This was a much darker monochrome outfit, with the navy tee and again blue denim shorts. These distressed boyfriend shorts were an opshop find and have quickly become a staple! Unlike the first outfit, the blue printed kimono added to the monochromatic look so I relied on accessories to break up the blue a little, like the blush tassel necklace and of course the sorbet pink Balenciaga city bag again. It just works so well with blue! Even kept the blue going with my cute little blue Converse Chucks. They were perfect as I didn't have too much walking to do.

Took the kids out to the playground in the morning to run off some of their energy and get them out the house - the problem for my hubby working from home during the school holidays is trying to work from home with the kids making a lot of noise! After the playground we picked up some new books at the library and then went shopping for a birthday present for an upcoming birthday before heading home for lunch.

Last worn: blue printed kimono, navy v-neck tee, blush and gold necklace, distressed denim shorts, blue Converse All Star, Balenciaga sorbet city bag (above).

Other ways to wear: blue printed kimono and white shorts, navy v-neck tee worn two ways, distressed denim shorts with pink and purple, blue Converse and culottes, Balenciaga sorbet city bag and floral dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Balenciaga sorbet city bag in second trimester.

How You Can Wear It:

A blue tee works so nicely with classic blue denim! To break up all that blue you can add some bright contrasting accessories like a pink bag, or a vibrant printed kimono to introduce more variety to your outfit.
