What I wore:
Scarf: Louis Vuitton monogram shawl in bleu
Tee: Atmos&Here navy stripe v-neck tee
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe periwinkle small Paraty
Why I wore it:
I love purple and blue together, although this bright blue Louis Vuitton shawl does steal all the attention away from the cute purple cardi! Despite it being a rainy day it wasn't too cold - so this light cardigan over the navy striped tee was all I needed to stay warm.I had the school drop off, an appointment afterwards, and then worked from home until it was time to pick the kids up, and we had a quick shop at Kmart. Thankfully the rain stopped in the afternoon, although it was a little bit of a pain doing the morning drop off in the rain! This scarf is so good at keeping me warm though.
Wore my little Chloe Paraty bag in periwinkle blue, even though it doesn't match the navy stripes of the tee or the bright blue of the scarf, I thought it complimented those shades and the purple cardigan nicely. It also fit a library book for me to read while waiting at my appointment - had such a nice chat with the nurse about the kinds of books we like to read.

Chloe Paraty Bag Review
What I wore:
Tee: thrifted navy stripe Coca-Cola logo tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: Adidas Stan Smith sneakers in white and navy
Bag: Chloe periwinkle small Paraty
Why I wore it:
This was a particularly windy day - perhaps a thicker cardigan may have worked better! Maybe even tying my hair back - the wind wasn't kind to it even though I wasn't outside long snapping these pics!Another quiet day with the school run and working from home. I wanted to wear this mustard cardigan with the navy striped Coca-Cola tee - both were thrift finds from a sadly now closed local opshop. Surprisingly I haven't worn them together before! I felt they were a really good combination and added a lot of lightness to this outfit that would have been a bit neutral otherwise with the white Stan Smith sneakers and the grey skinny jeans.
Again, the Chloe small Paraty bag doesn't match any of the colours in the outfit, but I thought it complimented the mustard nicely.

How You Can Wear It:
A cardigan can add warmth and a little extra colour to a simple striped tee and jeans outfit in winter. A bright scarf can add even more colour too!
I can just picture the bag I'm working on with that top outfit, although I don't think it would hold a library book! Love those bright colours. I adore the yellow cardi on you - it looks like good quality too. The gold elements on the bag work very harmoniously with it - yellow and grey is a great combo. We have a chance of rain today - I feel your pain! Have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteHmm maybe a really small library book? I will love it all the same!
DeleteThe last outfit is my favorite. You can never go wrong with strips.

So nice bag!!!
ReplyDeleteI love it ♥
Me encanto el segundo outfit, se ven muy bien las rayas con el amarillo, saludos:D
ReplyDeleteThere's a reason jeans have become so ubiquitous in fashion. They're easy.
ReplyDeleteSo easy, such a default for cold weather for me!
DeleteIt is wonderful that you can work from home some days, though it sounds like you are super busy throughout the day with school drop offs and whatnot! You are a pro to juggle it all! Love both of these outfits. I especially love the second loo. That yellow cardigan adds such a wonderful pop of colour!
ReplyDeletethe creation of beauty is art.
Yes with going back to 5 days a week at work it's nice to work from home for most of them so that I'm able to some other running around as well!
DeleteGrey and yellow! I got rid of my mustard cardigan because it just wasn't right but will have to keep my eyes out. Love the combo.

I love this one, I'm so glad I thrifted it, definitely an essential in my wardrobe!
DeleteThat periwinkle Chloe bag is such a gorgeous colour! Love the second outfit the most, as I just love a blue and yellow combo! Have a great weekend Mica! xxx
ReplyDeleteAgreed! Both the periwinkle and blue and yellow working well together!
DeleteSuch a cute look!

Love the periwinkle color of your bag, it feels quite unique. And the color on your shawl in the first outfit is also lovely!
ReplyDeleteIt is a really nice colour and I'm so glad my friend spotted this bag for me!
DeleteI really like the fun pops of color in these outfits! That blue scarf always looks so soft and cozy! :)
ReplyDeleteI totally love both outfits, and IMO, nothing lazy about them at all:) Love that LV scarf too...looks so warm! And I always get so jealous every time I see those Stan Smiths!
ReplyDeleteHope you're having a great weekend so far:)
I can't believe I've been so lucky with shoe thrifting recently, although I'm sure my mum feels unlucky as she was hoping they would fit her, haha! I benefited from having slightly smaller feet!
DeleteLove the blue scarf! Such an easy way to introduce some colour! xx
