Green Floral Prints and Grey Tees With Black Studded Tote Bag

Sometimes my outfit posts are two very similar outfits that follow the same formula. Other times, like today's post, it's just me trying to find some kind of similarity in what I wore so I can group them together for a post! Sharing two green floral print, grey tee and skirt outfits, two very different looks with very different pieces.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted Eb&Ive black wooden bead multi strand statement necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton on grey tunic tee
Skirt: thrifted Ghanda midi slink skirt in green mini blossom
Shoes: Walnut Melbourne 'Ava' black lizard ballet flats
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff medium unlined tote in black with shellac studded dome hardware

Why I wore it:

Another busy day! My son had a specialist appointment which lucky for him meant he missed a little bit of school that morning. We headed into the city - unfortunately with all the traffic - in the morning, and then I dropped him off at school and worked from home for a bit before school pickup in the afternoon.

I was determined to try this midi skirt with something other than Converse - these little black ballet flats were cute, although maybe not the best for driving with my knee injury, and matched the black statement necklace nicely. Both the skirt and necklace are recent opshop finds. I wasn't quite sure if this grey tunic top worked with the green midi skirt - maybe too relaxed a style with it, I went back and forth a few times but in the end I liked this outfit, I'm glad I gave it a try! A grey tee really does go with anything!


Last worn: grey tunic, black multi strand necklace, green floral midi skirt, ballet flats, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag.

Other ways to wear: grey tunic and printed shorts, green floral midi skirt and Converse, ballet flats and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag and denim skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: ballet flats in second trimester.

Opshop Haul - What I Thrifted In February

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Delilah long line kimono in green floral
Necklace: Happiness Boutique turquoise and coral pendant necklace (c/o)
Tee: Jimmy Rees Pfiiiiizer darling vaxed tee
Skirt: Nobody Denim Piper vacation skirt in black distressed denim
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff medium unlined tote in black with shellac studded dome hardware

Why I wore it:

Couldn't resist getting another wear of my Jimmy Rees Pfiiiiizer tee to the vaccination centre! Took the boys back for their second vaccine dose. I was feeling a lot better than when we took them for their first one back at the start of the year, when I was still recovering from my wisdom tooth surgery.

We had a trip to the library that day too so I added this green floral print duster to my outfit to keep me warm in the cold aircon in both places. It's not the same shade of green as the text on the tee but I love this duster with grey tees! And with the grey tee, black denim skirt, black Converse, and black tote bag, it was a very monochromatic outfit without that pop of colour from the kimono! The black tote bag was a must though, for carrying snacks, water bottles, and a little post-vaccination lolly for the kids. They were very brave.

Last worn: green floral duster, grey Pfiiiiizer tee, turquoise pendant necklace, distressed denim skirt, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff unlined studded tote bag (above).

Other ways to wear: green floral duster and graphic tee, grey Pfiiiiizer tee and maxi skirt, distressed denim skirt and leopard print, Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff unlined studded tote bag and striped dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

How You Can Wear It:

The outfits above would work with any colourful printed piece you're not too confident about wearing. Any colour looks great with a grey tee! It's the best wardrobe basic!
