Pink Tees, Black Knits And Skinny Jeans With Turquoise Balenciaga First Bag | Weekday Wear Link Up

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up, two pink and turquoise outfits I wore recently for the school run and working from home. I liked the pink tees and black layers outfits I wore previously, so repeated similar outfits again, both accessorised with my little turquoise Balenciaga first bag.


What I wore:

black cardigan and pink tee with Balenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India | awayfromtheblue


JacketCotton On black knit wrap cardigan
Scarf: blue tartan scarf
TeeCotton On deep v tee in washed desert rose
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
BagBalenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India


Why I wore it:

I really liked this outfit! My favourite thrifted $1 faded black jeans, black cardigan and black and white Adidas Superstar sneakers were great basics to start with in my outfit and let me add more colour. While there is no pink in the tartan scarf, and the shades of blue are different from the little Balenciaga first bag, I thought all these colours went so nicely together.

The scarf was needed on a cold morning too, and at sports later in the evening! I had a couple quick errands to run after school drop off, before working from home and then picking the kids up at school in the afternoon.


Last worn: black cardigan, pink tee, tartan scarf, faded black skinny jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Balenciaga turquoise First bag.

Other ways to wear: black cardigan and shorts, pink tee knotted over dress, tartan scarf and stripes, faded black skinny jeans and blazer, Adidas Superstar sneakers and midi dress, Balenciaga turquoise First bag and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: black cardigan and hidden second trimester bumptartan scarf in first trimester.


Balenciaga First Review and What's In My Bag:

Necklace: Kmart navy and gold beaded tassel necklace

JeansNobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagBalenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India


Why I wore it:

Just like last time I wore this cosy knitted kimono I paired it with a pink tee again! A brighter pink tee this time, but almost exactly the same as the last time I wore this knit, as I wore it with black jeans then too! It was the perfect thing to wear when all I had to do was working from home, and the school run. It's so warm and cosy, like a blanket!

While the pink tee adds a lot of colour to the black and white outfit, the turquoise Balenciaga first bag adds an extra pop I really enjoyed - it looks so good with both pink and black! Plus it had everything in it from when I'd worn it above, and meant I didn't need the hassle of switching over my bag while also making sure the kids got to school on time!


Last worn: knitted poncho, pink tee, navy tassel necklace, black Nobody Denim skinny jeans, Converse, Balenciaga turquoise first bag (above).

Other ways to wearknitted poncho and shorts, pink tee and maxi skirt, black Nobody Denim skinny jeans and blazer, Converse and pencil skirt, Balenciaga turquoise first bag and blue dress.

Perfect for pregnancyConverse in second trimester.


How You Can Wear It:

Pink tees look great with neutral black layers in winter - and you can't beat a classic jeans and tee outfit! A bright bag like this Balenciaga first bag is a nice way to add even more colour to winter layers too.
