Green Floral Toppers Over White Tees and Jeans Outfits With Balenciaga Part Time Bag

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up, I'm sharing some green floral toppers over basic white tees and jeans outfits. Accessorising with my black Balenciaga part time bag, the green layers were the only pops of colour in my outfits.


What I wore:

Jacket: Diane Von Furstenberg Gabrielle boxy floral jacket in garden green (via Sheila's wardrobe)
Necklace: Kmart black and gold double strand beaded necklace
TeeAtmos & Here white essential v-neck tee
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesWalnut Melbourne 'Ava' black lizard ballet flats
Bracelets: the usual plus beaded black bracelet stack
BagBalenciaga part time in black 2010 with SGH


Why I wore it:

I got this beautiful Diane Von Furstenberg jacket from Sheila! She very kindly included it in the box when she sent my bag back to me with her gorgeous artwork on it. It was perfect timing as that day I had a reminder for an appointment the next day I'd forgotten about - this jacket felt like the perfect way to dress up my work from home jeans and tee outfit to make it appropriate for an appointment I needed to feel confident with. Totally copied Sheila and stuck with the black and white colours for my outfit, with the white tee, black skinny jeans, black ballet flats and even a black bag!

Perfect outfit for working from home, spending some time with my mum, and an appointment in the afternoon, although I still am not sure that was quite the right necklace for this outfit, I'd try a longer one next time.


Last worn: white tee, beaded necklace, faded black skinny jeans, black ballet flats, Balenciaga part time bag. First time I've worn this jacket as it was a recent gift from Sheila.

Other ways to wearwhite tee over maxi dress, faded black skinny jeans and black knit, black ballet flats and printed skirt, Balenciaga part time bag worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: ballet flats in third trimester, Balenciaga part time bag in second trimester.

JeansNobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual plus beaded black bracelet stack
BagBalenciaga part time in black 2010 with SGH


Why I wore it:

A much more casual outfit than the one above, although it follows an identical formula. Dark denim jeans, a white tee, and this lovely green floral print duster as a topper. Worn with Converse rather than ballet flats, but again I went with black accessories with a necklace I think really did work with this outfit, a beaded black bracelet stack, and my Balenciaga part time bag.

Just needed something simple and comfortable for a busy morning, with a little bit of driving to-and-fro as my son had a birthday party to attend. Thankfully the party was indoors with all the rain - although the little shower we did get caught in wasn't too kind to my hair!



How You Can Wear It:

With a classic black jeans and white tee outfit you can add a lot more colour and interest with a light layer like these green floral ones. A silk jacket, or floral duster, can be the perfect light layer for spring.

  1. I bought a red floral topper (but one to tie in the front, like a wrap dress) second hand in New York and wore it pretty similar with a white tank and black denim recently.

  28. These are both cute outfits! Green, white and black is such a pretty combo. I love how the green pops also as the focal point of the outfit. I do love the longer necklace on the second outfit too. It’s a pretty one!

  29. As soon as I saw the first picture, I went, 'Hey!!!" Wow, that jacket looks fantastic on you, Mica - much better than on me! I love that you researched it too. I paid $28.95 for it, and only wore it twice, so you can add my two wears when you hit 30 on it!

    Love the green/black/white outfits! You look awesome! Thanks so much for the link party!
