Kmart Linen Shorts Outfits With Plain Tees and Colourful Cover Ups

Wearing these Kmart linen shorts I thrifted back in December into autumn by adding some longer printed cover ups on top.

Shorts: thrifted Kmart fuchsia linen blend shorts
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather 


Why I wore it:

While the kids were with the in-laws, I took advantage of some rare time to myself and went opshopping with a friend. I got some really cute things, I'll do a post on Friday about what I got. As always while I didn't get too much fashion related for myself I did spend an awful lot - books were $1 each so I stocked up on some for me and some for the kids too. After my relaxing morning browsing the opshops, I had to do a few less exciting things around the house in the afternoon.

I really like pink and blue together so the light blue tee seemed like such an easy choice with the hot pink linen shorts. And I think wearing the shorts and necklace I thrifted on my last trip brought me good thrifting luck again this time! The navy tie dye cover up was nice in the morning, it was a littler cooler and this is a comfortable piece that didn't overheat me later in the day when it did warm up. 

The aqua bag was a fun pop with the different shades of blue and the fuchsia pink too. I rarely match this bag to anything in my outfit, it is just such a good pop of colour on its own.

BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather 


Why I wore it:

This is a very bright outfit with the yellow and orange and aquamarine together! I saw this yellow printed cover up when I was wondering which one would go best with this white tee and orange shorts outfit, and while it is a very bright combination I think it was so fun to wear!

This was a fun but busy day, as I had the day off to spend with the kids and we tried to cram a lot in! The kids had a school holiday cooking class in the morning, we toured an environmental centre in the afternoon (and gave them some of our stick insect eggs because our girls have been laying a LOT of eggs!) and then my mum came over, and the kids had a haircut in the evening. These Sketchers sneakers were a must have for all the driving around.


Last worn: yellow cover up, Tiffany heart necklace, white tee, orange linen shorts, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff aqua mini MAC (above).

Other ways to wearyellow cover up with olive green, white tee and printed jeans, orange linen shorts with navy, Sketchers and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff aqua mini MAC and blue dress.

  2. Both kimonos are so fun with their bright colors! I am especially biased and love the yellow since it is my fave hue. The RM bag is also a nice contrast to both outfits. I am glad you were able to meet up with a friend for a bit. Those are always fun! I suppose it makes up for the non fun part of the day, right?

  10. The orange and yellow mix is so fun! And the shorts are such a good length. I don't know how I feel about the phrase "stick insect eggs," though... LOL!!
