Striped Dresses, Sneakers and Floral Bag

More simple striped dress outfits for spring. Loving the ease of an instant outfit by pulling on a dress lately! Accessorised with my little hand painted floral bag and some comfortable sneakers.


What I wore:





Necklace: thrifted purple wooden bead statement necklace
DressAtmos&Here navy stripe tee dress 
ShoesNew Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mica Bag - Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB side zip tote in pale lilac hand painted by Sheila


Why I wore it:

Brightening up this navy and black striped shift dress with accessories. With the comfortable and practical black New Balance sneakers and the navy and black stripes, this was a bit of a dull outfit. The lilac necklace and floral bag, even though they are different shades of purple, added jus the right amount of colour to this dress I thought.

Simple outfit for another usual spring day. School drop off, helping in my son's classroom, working from home and then a trip to the library after school pick up.





What I wore:




Necklace: Colette crescent purple and gold necklace
Dress: Target navy and white striped shift dress with frill sleeves
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mica Bag - Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB side zip tote in pale lilac hand painted by Sheila


Why I wore it:

Going a little matchy-matchy with the sneakers here too, striped Adidas superstar sneakers with this navy and white striped dress. I picked this dress up from Glad Rags Markets for $5 a while back and this is its fifth wear so it's already at $1 a wear! One of the reasons I love shopping second hand, such good value for money!

Just like the outfit above I added a little more colour to this with my accessories - the magenta necklace and the pretty floral bag. Easy outfit for a very hot day and a backyard birthday party that was a lot of fun. 


Last worn: Target dress, magenta necklace, Adidas Superstar sneakers, hand painted tote (above).

Other ways to wearTarget dress and black tote, Adidas Superstar sneakers and jeans, hand painted tote and tiered dress.


How You Can Wear It:

A simple striped dress is an easy instant outfit for spring. You can add even more colour with bright or printed accessories, as I have here.
