Embroidered Tops, Denim Jackets, Maxi Skirts and Micro Bedford Bag: Weekday Wear Link Up

Getting a couple more wears from my denim jackets before winter really set in here in Brisbane at the start of June! They are a nice light layer for these embroidered tops and maxi skirt outfits with Converse and my little Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag.

What I wore:

Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Tank: Target embroidered khaki tank
Skirt: thrifted Crossroads black ruffle hem maxi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford zip satchel in twilight

Why I wore it:

While I've worn this olive tank with a black maxi skirt before, it's the first time I've paired it with this particular maxi skirt. I really liked the combination - with the black embroidery on the olive tank, wearing it with more black is such an obvious choice. While it was a warmer autumn day I still needed something to cover up my arms, so I went with this classic denim jacket that works with everything. See 30 different ways to wear it here.

With the blue denim jacket, the neutral navy Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag was a nice matchy-matchy option. I didn't need to carry much either as it was a quieter day with just the school drop off, helping in my son's classroom and then relaxing with the little one before school pick up and sports in the evening.


Last worn: denim jacket, olive embroidered tank, black ruffle hem maxi skirt, Converse, navy Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag.

Other ways to wear: denim jacket worn 30 ways, olive embroidered tank and shorts, black ruffle hem maxi skirt and graphic tee, Converse and printed dress, navy Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag and jeans.

Perfect for pregnancy: denim jacket in second trimester, Converse in second trimester.

Rebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford Review

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Cotton On girlfriend denim jacket in whitehaven

Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Top: Caroline Morgan navy embroidered tunic
Skirt: thrifted Billabong 'Don't Think Of It' bikini red printed maxi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford zip satchel in twilight

Why I wore it:

Unlike the first outfit above, I wasn't so confident this would work. The embroidered navy tunic is so pretty but with the print on the maxi skirt I wasn't sure if it was too busy. I'm so glad I gave this a go though, really liked it. The white denim jacket pulled it all together nicely and I do always like navy with this skirt. Again, the Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag was a bit of matchy-matchy with the navy top. Even though the Converse are a different shade of blue from the blue in the embroidery I thought they went well with this too.

Had a busy day! After school drop off the little one and I spent some time visiting my mum at her work, and then we had to go drop some books off at the library. I'd made it to my mum's work okay with the GPS (I've only been there a handful of times) but heading to the library instead of back home was tricky. At one point the GPS tracker line just jumped off the road and piled up into a big scribble. Never seen that before! Anticipating that it would just recalculate I tried to go further down what I thought was the right road and it tried to catch up but then the line just stopped....so I ended up pulling off onto a side road and trying to figure the route out myself as it yelled conflicting nonsensical directions at me. Even my son in the back of the car was getting annoyed in the end and kept asking when we would be there at the library already 😂We made it in the end, even if we took the very long scenic route!

Last worn: white denim jacket, navy embroidered tunic, Tiffany necklace, red printed maxi skirt, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag (above).

Other ways to wear: white denim jacket with tie dye, navy embroidered tunic and shorts, red printed maxi skirt with mustard knit, blue Converse and culottes, Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag and chambray dress.

How You Can Wear It:

An embroidered top and a maxi skirt make for an easy, boho outfit. You can add a denim jacket as an simple layer for a cooler day too that won't clash with any embroidery or print you have in your outfit.
