Red Maxi Dresses, Denim Jackets and Blue Bags

Red maxi dresses with denim jackets, sneakers and blue bags for some rainy autumn days in Brisbane recently.


What I wore:



Jacket: Jeanswest Kitty denim biker jacket
EarringsColette blue mixed shape faux crustal drop earrings
Necklace: thrifted gold and pastel blue beaded necklace with grey string
Dress: thrifted colourful geometric print maxi dress
ShoesNike Court Royale white and beige sneakers
BagRebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford zip satchel in twilight


Why I wore it:

Wore this out to church on Mother's Day. They had a photo booth setup so I could get a cute family pic, and so I picked this pretty printed dress to wear and added the new crystal statement earrings I'd picked up on sale a day earlier. The denim jacket was much needed to keep me warm and dry in this spaghetti strap maxi dress. Then with the blue statement earrings and the pale blue denim jacket, the blue beaded necklace seemed like an obvious matchy-matchy choice. The navy Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag isn't a match to any of the shades of blue in this outfit, but I felt it was a good neutral and continued the blue theme well.

I had a lovely Mother's day, and I enjoyed the things the kids made and bought me, I was very spoiled.


Last worn: denim jacket, blue beaded necklace, geometric print maxi dress, Nike sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford. First time I've worn the earrings as they are a recent purchase.

Earrings: gold heart and pearl earrings
Necklace: handmade silver and gold faux pearl beaded necklace
DressKmart Whsdch Red short sleeved tiered midi dress
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
BagChloe periwinkle small Paraty


Why I wore it:

Wore this for a much busier day, with a day out in the city with family, finally getting on the Brisbane wheel. I've never been on it before, I'm not really a fan of heights, but at least I can say I've done it now! It was another rainy day which explains my hair, and meant I needed to carry an umbrella around, although thankfully the rain dried up for a few hours in the afternoon so we could enjoy our time in the city. We even got a bit of shopping in!

Again I went with a denim jacket over this red dress to keep me warm, it was just right, especially when the sun came out later in the afternoon. I went with the faux pearl necklace to match the pearl earrings, and yet another blue bag, my periwinkle blue Chloe Paraty. It's a good bag for the essentials plus an extra like an umbrella, it fits a lot!

I wore sneakers again, my comfortable Sketchers, as we had a lot of walking planned. It was such a good day.


Last worn: denim jacket, pearl earrings, faux pearl necklace, red tiered midi dress, Sketchers, Chloe Paraty bag.
