Printed Dresses With Boots and Rebecca Minkoff Cupid Bag

Getting my printed dresses out again for winter. While both these dresses have long sleeves, leggings and boots were a definite must have as they are quite light. I also had a slip on under each dress for extra warmth, and of course a jacket on top to keep warm.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest navy suede moto zip jacket
Dress: Jeanswest 'Chelsea' printed dress
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
Bag: thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue

Why I wore it:

This navy suede jacket I got for Christmas I thought would be a lovely pairing with this navy tile print dress, but the jacket looks almost black here. It certainly kept me cosy in the cold morning though! I wore this for the school run and a quick errand, before working from home and picking up the kids again in the afternoon.

With the dark navy Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag, and the black ankle boots too, this felt like a really dark outfit, even with the white on the print of the dress. Good for this overcast winter day in Brisbane!

What I wore:

Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Dress: Zaful floral print ruffle hem dress in ginger
Shoes: Asos Cleo leather boots in tan
Bracelets: the usual plus Mimco gunmetal twisted bracelet stack
Bag: thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue

Why I wore it:

Unlike the outfit above, this is a lot more colourful! This dress hasn't been worn in a while so was definitely due a repeat wear, and I really like it with leggings underneath. I had to double up the sleeves a bit of get this denim jacket on top - the dress has long statement sleeves, that is sadly hidden by the jacket, but I needed the extra warmth from the jacket, especially on the cold morning.

With the comfortable and cosy tall leather boots as well, this was a great outfit for family fun day at church. The kids had a blast enjoying all the yummy food, playing games, and bouncing around on the jumping castle after the service. It was very difficult to pull them away to head home!

The Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag, that I still haven't stopped using and loving since I thrifted it, was perfect for storing all my essentials plus our water bottles for the day.
