Printed Tops, Colourful Jeans, Adidas Superstar and Balenciaga Part Time Bag

More super simple autumn outfits with printed tops, colourful jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, statement earrings and my Balenciaga part time bag. Tried adding the statement earrings to dress my outfits up a little!


What I wore:

striped tee and Balenciaga part time in black 2010 with SGH | awayfromtheblue


Earrings: Kmart navy tassel earrings
Tee: thrifted navy stripe Coca-Cola logo tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Harper skinny pant in Russet
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
BagBalenciaga part time in black 2010 with SGH


Why I wore it:

It's always fun when autumn weather starts to arrive and I can pull out all my jeans again! I have quite a collection of colourful denim. These burgundy ones haven't been worn much, I bought them in my massive Jeanswest sale haul at the start of 2020. It was nice to get them out for their first wearing this year with the cooler autumn weather, even if the burgundy isn't an exact match with the red of the Coca Cola logo on the tee I thought the different shades of red would look good together.

This was a really casual outfit, especially with the Adidas superstar sneakers (which I think complimented the contrasting horizontal stripes in the tee nicely) so I tired to dress it up a little with the statement earrings - the navy ones being matchy-matchy with the navy stripes on the tee. Made me feel like I put a little more effort into my outfit!

It was a day full of errands - I had a big list of things to get through so we headed to the local Westfield to try cross everything off in one trip. The Balenciaga part time bag was great for carrying the essentials and a couple snacks and water bottles for the kids. It was a rainy day though so we were as quick as possible as it was so busy! Although we haven't had virus cases in Brisbane for over a month, we still haven't been heading out to the shops as much as we used to pre-COVID, and normally avoid the big shopping centres. You forget how busy it can get, especially on a wet weekend day when everyone is looking to stay dry!

Why I wore it:

Same outfit formula as the one above, on a much quieter weekend day. Headed out to the library and the playground with the kids. I even wore the same shoes, these Adidas Superstar were a great thrift find I'm definitely getting value from. They are super comfortable for all the running around with the kids too.

Again I added statement earrings to this outfit - the teal and gold complimented the turquoise and gold of the necklace nicely I thought. I love the way the colours look with the magenta skinny jeans too! I did regret the earrings a little when I had a struggle fitting the kids bikes back into the car (it's like a game of Tetris!) and one of my earrings got caught on the handlebars. Luckily it didn't fall too far and landed in the car!

With statement magenta jeans and an animal print tank I feel this could be a really loud outfit, but with the neutral browns in the tank I think this works well and isn't too much. Was nice and easy for a quiet day with the kids too. Again the Balenciaga part time bag came in handy for water bottles and snacks!

How You Can Wear It:

Colourful jeans are a nice way to get away from the blue jeans rut while still being just as practical. You can keep it simple as I have here with neutral accessories like a black bag, and a printed top that doesn't clash with the colours of your jeans.

  1. I love wearing colored jeans too. But these days I am totally locked at home going no where. I love your outfits especially the striped Coca Cola t-shirt. I have a thing for black and white :-)
    Have a great day my dear friend. :-)

  2. Adding accessories always shows a little more effort was put into a look and I always do it too; I feel done when I do! Glad you were able to find your earring!

  3. Luckily you didn´t get hurt when the earring caught in the bike, that can lead to some nasty bleeding! The main reason I stopped wearing statement earring for a long time with small children.

    1. Yes the boys are finally growing out of grabbing them but there are so many other things to worry about now, haha! A family member had an earring related accident with their ear so I'm usually very careful!

  4. Hola Mica, I hope you're having a good Friday! I think it is already night in Australia so happy weekend!

    I love both options but the first one is my favorite. Anyway both are great ways to use those SuperStar sneakers + the iconic Balenciaga bag! I also liked the striped t shirt but with the Coca Cola logo!

    And I totally get your point, as you I don't go to shops often, even if the cases are low I prefer to analyze what I'm buying and then if it possible shopping online.

    Will check the other post of this week and best from Spain!

  15. I'm loving your collection of colourful jeans, Mica! Both the burgundy and the magenta pair are just perfect to brighten up those less-than-perfect weather days. The styling of your second outfit is brilliant, and I'm in awe of the fact that you can still wear sleeveless tops in Autumn! xxx

  16. Totally digging these two outfits, Mica:) Those sneakers go with anything, and so does that bag! I didn't think the Balenciaga would work with such a casual outfit but you make it work:)

  20. Both looks are so cool and chic but loving the contrast of the print and colored jeans in the second look. The fact that it's turning cooler there gives me hope that warmth is headed my way. :)

    1. Some times I carry the same bag for a week or so, it just depends! other days I swap it daily, whatever my mood is really haha! I mostly have things organised in pouches in my bags so it's easy to swap things around and enjoy more of my bag collection :)

  31. I love both outfits! And the second look is definitely not too much since the print is such a neutral color. I actually also really like to wear animal print tops with colorful bottoms :)
