Blue and White Shorts Outfits With Balenciaga Moto Bags

Another outfit duo following a similar formula but two very different resulting looks, with shorts, blue and white, and Balenciaga bags. These bags are from 2009 and 2010, but age so well! I'm glad I splurged on them all those years ago.


What I wore:

Tee: Primark Edinburgh white graphic tee
Shorts: Jeanswest Trinity Bermuda denim shorts
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
BagBalenciaga RH classic city in 2010 sorbet


Why I wore it:

A hot but relaxed day, with the school run and working from home. Surprisingly, I haven't worn this tie dye cape and the sorbet pink Balenciaga city bag together before. I really like blue and pink so expected the combination to come up in my blog archives, but looks like this is a new pairing! The different blue and navy shades in the tie dye go so nicely with the sorbet pink of the bag.

Kept my outfit simple with this white graphic tee and Bermuda denim shorts, it was really too hot for much else, or for proper shoes! Didn't even add a necklace to this - I think with the printed cape and the graphic print on the tee, and bright bag, there was already enough going on in this outfit.

Why I wore it:

Another hot day! We had a quiet morning at home, with a wildlife show to attend in the afternoon with the kids. I went with this simple turquoise tank and these light white Bermuda denim shorts, again blue and white like the outfit above. Because the show was outdoors I felt I should add a little bit of physical sunblock as well so went with this tropical floral print duster.

I've worn this purple Balenciaga work bag with turquoise before, and liked the combination. I also like wearing this purple bag with navy, so thought it would go nicely with the duster. All together it doesn't work quite as well as I would have liked, and with it being so hot and sticky I was wishing I'd gone with no duster on top. The bag was the perfect size for all our water bottles though. Thankfully we got home from the show just before the storm hit, and the humidity didn't stop my kids from enjoying the wildlife show and getting up close and personal with the animals and snakes.

  17. Seeing you in those shorts is making me so jealous! It was -7C here last night, the coldest I can remember for years, we are all wrapped up in thermals right now. Those bags are beautiful, as you say, a worthwhile investment, especially as you still love them as much as you did when you got them :)
