Thrifted Camis, Cover Ups and Black Denim with Mini 5-Zip Bags | Weekday Wear Link Up

Just before Christmas, my local opshop had a "fill a bag for $10" sale that I made the most of! For today's Weekday Wear Link Up, I'm sharing a couple of outfits where I wore a few of the pieces for the first time. The camis and cover ups in each of these outfits are thrifted.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Kmart black and white embellished cover up
Necklace: Roie Designs multi chain layered beaded necklace
Top: thrifted Kmart dusty rose cami
Shorts: Jeanswest Sara distressed hot short
Shoes: Wittner 'Jasmarie' studded sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff emerald green mini 5-zip rocker bag

Why I wore it:

This looked like a nice basic cami when I was in the opshop, so I added it to my bag. It proved a little tricky to style when I got it home though - I don't have a lot of this dusty rose pink in my wardrobe, so I went with simple black and white clothing pieces to wear with it. The black denim shorts and necklace were a nice bit of matchy-matchy with the black embroidery on the coverup.

Then just to try something different I wore my little green mini 5-zip bag. We went to the playground in the morning, to tire the kids out a little before we had some electricians over working on the house in the afternoon. My friend stopped by in the evening too so we could exchange Christmas presents - it was nice to catch up in person again! Even if it was too warm to chat for long.

For a super hot day this was a really good outfit. Even though we were out of the sun during the heat of the day as we had to be home for the electricians, I couldn't turn the AC on because of the work they were doing.


Last worn: black multi strand necklace, black denim shorts, studded sandals, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip bag. First time I've worn the embroidered cover up and the cami as they are recent thrift finds.

Other ways to wear: black denim shorts and stripes, studded sandals and floral dress, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip bag and maxi skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: studded sandals in second trimester.

What's Inside My Bag : Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5-Zip

---

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted digital print no label kimono
Necklace: Colette marble and gold pendant drop long necklace
Top: thrifted no label chambray tie strap cami
Skirt: Nobody Denim Piper vacation skirt in black distressed denim
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5 zip in pink iris with gold hardware 

Why I wore it:

This was another busy day! I was looking forward to wearing this chambray cami - a last minute addition to my $10 opshop sale bag. I saw it hanging on the end of a rack as I was trying to go through everything I had picked up to fit into the bag and threw it in when I realised it had space. I'll need to wear it without the cover up next time, as it has really cute tie straps! The cover up was needed for a little sun protection though.

We had a playdate with friends in the morning, and then a trip to the library in the afternoon before making a start on baking some treats for the upcoming Christmas eve celebrations (as I wore this back in December!).

With the pink in the marble necklace, magenta on the cover up and vivid pink of the Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag don't all match, I thought they were close enough together to make my matchy-matchy self happy. I'll definitely have to wear these accessories together again!

Last worn: digital print cover up, marble necklace, Nobody Denim skirt, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff iris pink mini 5-zip bag. First time I've won the chambray cami as it's a recent opshop find.

Other ways to wear: digital print cover up over a dress, Nobody Denim skirt and leopard print, Rebecca Minkoff iris pink mini 5-zip bag and magenta jeans.

How You Can Wear It:

A simple cami is an easy choice on a hot summer day with denim. A light printed or embroidered cover up can add a little sun protection without overheating you too.
