Striped Tees, Skinny Jeans and Colourful Cardis

Sharing two recently worn striped tee and jeans outfits, with colourful cardigans to combat the cooler winter weather in Brisbane.


What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted SES Fashions mustard yellow cardigan
Necklace: Uniquely Made with Love Sea Change necklace
TeeCotton On "The One" fitted v tee in Cole stripe white moonlight
Jeans: Jeanswest Vicki skinny pant in moss green
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

This was a colder than expected winter day with a bit of rain and I actually wished I'd added a scarf to this outfit after the school drop off in the morning! I did like it when I wasn't feeling too cold though.

Was a quiet day but it was good to get out and about with it being the first full day after the 8 day Brisbane lockdown ended at 4pm the evening before. Doing the school run and attending our regular appointments again was so nice after an extra long 8 day lockdown.

These olive jeans look great with mustard, I like wearing this mustard cardigan with them. And you can't go wrong with a classic striped tee! The Chloe small Ethel bag was again a good choice as it fits so much - all the essentials plus my younger son's hoodie and both our water bottles.





What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest waterfall drape cardigan in navy night sky marle
Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
TeeAtmos&Here navy stripe v-neck tee
JeansSass & Bide The Winning Day Lovestate jeans in magenta
ShoesNew Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
BagRebecca Minkoff 2012 sky grey mini MAC bag


Why I wore it:

A quickly thrown together outfit I wore a while ago, for our final day of lockdown. (Before the day above!) We'd used up all the bread for breakfast that morning, so after watching the press conference and finding out the good news that lockdown was ending as planned I got out of loungewear and headed out to the shops to grab some bread.

Jeans and a striped tee is such an easy outfit, and I thought these magenta jeans added a nice touch of colour. The navy cardigan was a matchy-matchy choice with the navy stripes on the tee, but I didn't really need it. It was such a warm day I was eager to take it off when I got back home. The kids spent most of the day playing in the little tent you see in the background there!

Because all I needed was one loaf of bread I wasn't out long - this cute little blue Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag is nice with the darker navy blue of the cardigan and is perfect for just a wallet, mask, hand sanitiser and car keys.



How You Can Wear It:
You can't go wrong with jeans and a tee! A striped tee is a classic and a good way to add a print to your outfit. A bright cardigan or pair of jeans - or both! - can add more colour too.

  3. This makes me want to break out my striped tee! So easy to style.
    Hopefully now that you are able to get vaccinated you'll have less lockdowns once more people get the shot!

  8. I'm quite partial to stripes lately, so I'm loving both of your striped tee based outfits. While I'm definitely loving the combination of olive and mustard in the first one, my favourite is the second one, even if it was quickly thrown together. I hope there won't be any further lockdowns for you any time soon! xxx

    1. Yes it will be nice once enough of us are vaccinated that lockdowns are no longer needed - just waiting on there being enough vaccines available!

  9. I do agree, mustard yellow and olive look great together...love those jeans and cardi combo...and a striped t-shirt is always a good idea. I love your other styling too. That pair of pink skinny jeans is very chic. Perfect outfits for the ocassion you wore them for. Good thing about layering outfits with cardigans is that you can always take them off when it gets too warm for them.
    Have a nice day!💙💙💙💙

  12. The mustard cardigan and the olive jeans go well together. The outfit would require an other color for the stripped tee.Even plain white will do, but not the blue stripes.
