Winter Stripes, Jeans, Tee and Scarves Outfits

Some uncharacteristically muted outfits, after the past few posts of bold and colourful winter layers! Muted tones and neutrals all just layer so well for winter though. And it was a very cold couple of days in Brisbane! Both of these outfits feature jeans and a tee, with a cosy scarf and some stripes.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest waterfall drape cardigan in navy night sky marle
Scarf: Fashion Scarf Girl black and white thick and thin mix print scarf
Tee: Cotton On deep v tee in washed desert rose
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bag: Chloe periwinkle small Paraty

Why I wore it:

This was a fun day! My eldest son had a playdate at his friends house with his best mates while my youngest son and I spent time with my mum and sister. We didn't have a lot planned for the day, just went out to a few of the school holiday activities that the local shopping centres had organised, while ticking off a few errands. It was more the company that made it fun! My family stayed over for dinner too which was really nice, so my eldest could have some time with them after my friend dropped him back from his playdate.

It was a very uncharacteristically cold day so I wanted all the layers - this navy waterfall cardigan looks good with the pink tee, and the black and white printed scarf adds a bit of extra interest and print to the outfit too while keeping me warm. The faded black jeans and black New Balance sneakers were a nice bit of matchy-matchy with the black stripes on the scarf too. The Chloe Periwinkle small Paraty bag doesn't really match any of my outfit, but I thought it went nicely with the muted colours and I can easily fit a snack and water bottle in this as well as my essentials for the day.


Last worn: navy waterfall cardigan, striped scarf, pink tee, faded black jeans, New Balance sneakers, Chloe Paraty bag.

Other ways to wear: navy waterfall cardigan and shorts, striped scarf and yellow, pink tee and shorts, faded black jeans and blazer, Chloe Paraty bag and sundress.

Chloe Small Paraty Review:

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Kmart striped maxi cardigan
Scarf: Fashion Scarf Girl navy and pink cheetah print scarf
Tee: Atmos&Here rolled sleeve oversized tee in wine
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Chloe periwinkle small Paraty

Why I wore it:

Another outfit with all the layers - although this thin striped duster wasn't as warm as the thick waterfall cardigan I wore above, it was a day where I wasn't outside as much. We had another school holiday playdate at home in the morning, and then a trip to the library in the afternoon. It was quite nice sitting in the sun in the backyard in the morning, especially after the frantic tidying up the house we did before our friends came over had me feeling warm! Although in the afternoon at the library I wished I'd maybe worn a cardigan instead of this duster, or a long sleeved tee underneath as it was a bit windy.

I wasn't sure what scarf to wear with this - with the deep purple tee and black and white stripes and grey skinny jeans I thought about a brighter colour, but in the end I went with this leopard print one that is quickly becoming my go-to scarf for winter! I really like stripes and leopard print together.


Last worn: striped maxi cardigan, leopard print scarf, deep purple tee, grey skinny jeans, Converse, Chloe Paraty bag (above).

Other ways to wear: striped maxi cardigan over a dress, leopard print scarf and purple cardigan, deep purple tee over a maxi dress, grey skinny jeans worn 30 ways, Converse and denim skirt, Chloe Paraty bag and shorts. 

Perfect for pregnancy: deep purple tee in second trimester, Converse in second trimester.

How You Can Wear It:

Printed scarves are a great addition to jeans and tee outfits in winter! You can print mix with them like I have in the second outfit, or let them be the only printed statement in your outfit like I have in the first photos.
