Floral Dresses and Black Bags

Two colourful floral print dress outfits I've worn with black strappy sandals and black Rebecca Minkoff bags.

What I wore:

Earrings: gold angel stud earrings
Necklace: For King & Country Priceless Australian coin and crest necklace
Dress: Orange Sherbet Zoe tiered dress in geranium print pink
Shoes: thrifted Anko Kmart black strappy sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus vintage silver charm bracelet
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff medium unlined tote in black with shellac studded dome hardware

Why I wore it:

I had a hard time picking what to wear for this day as I had to WFH in the morning, but picked my son up from school early for an important appointment.

In the end I settled on this pretty red floral tiered maxi dress I'd worn recently for a birthday party, along with simple black sandals and my black unlined Rebecca Minkoff tote bag to store a copy of some of the documents we needed to bring.

This was the perfect outfit to wear in the end - the dress even has pockets, it makes me smile every time I wear it as the print and colours are just so cheerful. Might have been a little overdressed for working from home, but it was comfortable and was ideal for that afternoon appointment, and for when my mum and sister came over in the evening.


Last worn: gold angel stud earrings, For King & Country necklace, Orange Sherbet floral tiered maxi dress, strappy sandals, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag.

Other ways to wear: Orange Sherbet floral tiered maxi dress for Christmas, strappy sandals and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag and shorts.

What I wore:

Jacket: Anko Kmart classic denim jacket
Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Dress: thrifted no label pastel floral print babydoll dress
Shoes: thrifted Anko Kmart black strappy sandals
Bag: thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue

Why I wore it:

This was a cooler day so I was happy to wear this denim jacket over the floral babydoll dress for church. I got the denim jacket from the opshop in one of our pre-Christmas opshopping trips, when I saw it I grabbed it right away! Luckily it was my size so mum got it for me for Christmas. I liked the darker blue denim with the light pastel floral print on the dress.

Again I went with black sandals as it wasn't that cold, and it did warm up nicely later. I also wore my little Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag, as I felt I hadn't taken it out in a while, and it matches nicely with the sandals. It's actually a really dark navy, but when the bag and shoes are worn far apart they both look black.

Last worn: Tiffany necklace, floral babydoll dress, black sandals (above), Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag. First time I've worn the denim jacket as it was a Christmas present.

Other ways to wear: floral babydoll dress and blazer, black sandals and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag and jeans.
