Printed Dresses, Bright Blazers and Mimco Teal Cocoon Bucket Bag

Wearing two pretty floral print dresses that I tried to make a little more formal for office days by adding bright blazers on top.

What I wore:

Jacket: Glassons orange jersey blazer
Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Dress: Jaase Celine autumn leaves mini dress
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal

Why I wore it:

I've worn this Jaase Celine dress into the office before. It's my go-to dress for special events, but I think with a blazer it looks a little more formal for a day at work. We had a lunch event on so I ended up taking the blazer off, the long sleeves on this dress kept me warm enough.

I really liked the orange blazer with the autumn leaves print on the dress, it was a great combination. I added the teal Mimco cocoon bucket bag as I've been loving wearing it lately, even though it doesn't match any of the colours in this print I liked the teal with the orange blazer and navy dress. The orange blazer just pops with everything I've worn it with.

Last worn: Tiffany necklace, orange blazer, Jaase Celine autumn leaves dress, white Converse, Mimco cocoon bucket bag.

Other ways to wear: orange blazer and jeans, Jaase Celine autumn leaves dress and leather jacket, white Converse and skirt, Mimco cocoon bucket bag with pink.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Jeanswest cobalt blue blazer
Earrings: gold Christmas present bow hoops
Necklace: Silhoupette gold plated Shih Tzu necklace
Dress: Boho Luxe floral print maxi dress (from my sister's wardrobe)
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal

Why I wore it:

My sister recently brought over a bunch of pieces she didn't want any more, and when I saw this dress I knew I had to have it! I always love a maxi dress. Wore it for another wet but humid day, again as I did with the dress above by adding the blazer to make it a little more office appropriate.

There were a few of us in the office on this day and we smiled when we realised most of us were wearing maxi dresses - I love unexpected coordinating like that! It was a day full of meetings so I kept the blazer on as we rushed between meeting rooms, but at least I was colourful and comfortable. The teal Mimco bag was a good match to the blues and turquoises in the print of the dress too I thought.


Last worn: gold silhouette necklace, cobalt blazer, blue Converse, Mimco cocoon bag (above). First time I've worn this dress as it's from my sister's wardrobe, and first time I've worn the earrings as they were a gift last Christmas.

Other ways to wear: cobalt blazer and jeans, blue Converse and shorts, Mimco cocoon bag and skirt.

Pink and Purple Denim Skirt and Tee Outfits With Floral Prints

Two different Target stretch denim pencil skirt outfits with pink and purple. While these outfits follow a very similar outfit formula, I liked how different both turned out.

What I wore:

Jacket: Target Karolina summer kimono in purple black floral
Earrings: Kmart glitter gingerbread man earrings
Tee: Kmart short sleeve cotton modal tee in tulip pink
Skirt: Target classic denim skirt in white
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Polene numero neuf mini in textured mauve 

Why I wore it:

I wanted a comfortable but practical outfit for my annual Christmas shopping day out with my mum and sister. Decided on this white denim skirt, as I was out most of the day and didn't have to worry about wet doggy footprints on the white denim! The white Adidas Superstar sneakers were a nice comfortable choice for a day walking around all the shops, getting the bulk of my Christmas shopping done. Just a couple things I've ordered online that I'm waiting for now.

As we often buy each other things while out shopping, I thought a skirt and tee was a good outfit for trying things on. We did try on a few things too so I was glad I wore this outfit. I didn't add a necklace as I had my big glittery gingerbread statement earrings, and with the purple floral print on the cover up I felt the earrings and floral print added enough interest on their own.

Although the lilac Polene Numero Neuf mini bag isn't an exact match with the purple in the print, I really liked it with this outfit, and I only needed the essentials on our shopping trip anyway.

Last worn: gingerbread earrings, pink tee, floral print duster, white denim skirt, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Polene Numero Neuf mini bag.

Other ways to wear: pink tee and pencil skirt, floral print duster and shorts, white denim skirt and blazer, Adidas Superstar sneakers and dress, Polene Numero Neuf mini bag and blue printed dress.

What I wore:

Earrings: mini glitter gingerbread earrings

Jacket: Jeanswest Polly printed kimono in white base ditsy floral 
Necklace: thrifted pastel pink and wooden hexagon bead necklace
Tee: Kmart basic purple tee
Skirt: thrifted Target black stretch denim skirt
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga RH classic city in 2010 sorbet

Why I wore it:

Since I liked the pink and purple skirt and tee combination above so much, I wore it again, this time with my black Target denim skirt. This one was an opshop find. I really liked the purple tee with it, it's such a bold colour. Also wanted to add a necklace to this outfit as while I was also wearing statement gingerbread earrings in this outfit, they are a smaller set than the one above. With the blush pink necklace, and the pink floral print of the white cover up and the sorbet pink of the Balenciaga city bag, there was a lot of pink in this outfit, but I think all the shades of the colour worked so nicely together.

It was a good outfit for a hot day, with church in the morning, and then a kids bowling party in the afternoon.


Last worn:  floral cover up, blush necklace, purple tee, black denim skirt, Converse, Balenciaga sorbet city bag. First time I've worn the earrings as they were a gift.

Other ways to wear: floral cover up and jeans, purple tee and printed jeans, black denim skirt and stripes, Converse and dress, Balenciaga sorbet city bag worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Balenciaga sorbet city bag at 37 weeks.

Green and Blue Tee and Midi Skirt Outfits With Mimco Teal Bag

Wearing some midi skirts into the office with blue tees and my little teal Mimco cocoon bucket bag. I like the teal bag with these green and blue outfits, despite the different shades in both.

What I wore:

Earrings: Avocado Santa hat earrings
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Skirt: Kmart breeze green broderie anglaise midi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual plus jade bracelet
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal

Why I wore it:

This pale blue tee feels a littler more casual than a darker navy one, so I did consider adding a blazer to this. Despite the overcast start to the day it was still very humid though, so I decided not to add the extra layer. It was a quiet day in the office anyway.

I did like the paler blue tee against the bright green of the broderie skirt though. I often wear this skirt with blue tones. The blue Converse were a good match with the tee as well, although not exactly the same shade, they are very similar. I added a little more green with the jade bracelet as well. Wore a neutral navy statement necklace to try dress this up slightly for the office, and then my Mimco cocoon bucket bag that's been a real staple lately.

Last worn: pastel blue tee, navy beaded necklace, green broderie midi skirt, blue Converse, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag. First time I've worn the earrings as they were a gift.

Other ways to wear: pastel blue tee and shorts, green broderie midi skirt and Christmas tee, blue Converse and dress, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag and pencil skirt.

---

What I wore:

Earrings: DIY green clay Christmas tree earrings
Necklace: Starfish Project Hannah turquoise bead necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Sophie navy v-neck tee
Skirt: thrifted &Me blue linen button up midi skirt with pockets
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal

Why I wore it:

Again with the green and a lighter blue! This time around I wore this blue linen midi skirt, with a navy v-neck tee and my green beaded statement necklace for an extra pop of colour. I love wearing this green necklace with navy pieces in my wardrobe, I like the combination. And I really liked this linen midi skirt too. It does get creased up terribly easily, but it is also so light and perfect for a humid spring day. I like that it's also long enough to keep my legs covered up from the freezing aircon in the office.

Just like the midi skirt and tee outfit above, I wore my teal Mimco cocoon bucket bag with this outfit. I've been wearing it with almost everything lately, but I think the dark teal looks so good with blue.


Last worn: Christmas tree earrings, navy tee, green beaded necklace, linen midi skirt, white Converse, Mimco cocoon bag (above).

Other ways to wear: navy tee and jeans, linen midi skirt and printed tank, white Converse and dress, Mimco cocoon bag and blazer.

Navy Tees, Grey Pencil Skirts and Teal Bucket Bag

Wearing my new-to-me Mimco cocoon bucket bag in both these outfits. I scored it pre-loved on ebay as a treat for myself to celebrate something at work. I used to have a couple of these bags a long time ago and always missed having one in my wardrobe, so I am really enjoying having the style again! You will see it pop up a lot on the blog. The teal is a really nice shade that pairs so nicely with navy and grey, as I've worn it in both of these outfits.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Nadine 3/4 sleeve dusky pink blazer
Necklace: Kmart pink multi-colour beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Skirt: Atmos&Here grey marle jersey pencil skirt
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal (new purchase)

Why I wore it:

Even with the foil sparkle thread through this tee, the navy felt a little plain with the grey jersey pencil skirt, so I decided to dress this outfit up a bit and add more colour with the blush blazer. The blush pink is something I really like wearing with navy. I added the wooden beaded necklace for a little matchy-matchy. I wasn't sure about the teal Mimco cocoon bag against the pink but I really liked this combination, blush pink goes with so much.

This was a nice comfortable outfit for a quiet day in the office.

Last worn: blush blazer, pink wooden necklace, navy tee, grey jersey pencil skirt, white Converse. First time I've worn the bag as it's a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: blush blazer and dress, navy tee and maxi skirt, grey jersey pencil skirt and printed tank, white Converse and jeans

Perfect for pregnancy: blush blazer in third trimester, grey jersey pencil skirt in third trimester.

Mimco Cocoon Bucket Bag Unboxing

---

What I wore:

Necklace: Kelly's Kloset rainbow layered necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Ruby frill sleeve Ric Rac detailed tee in deep iris
Skirt: Target textured silver pencil skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal (new purchase)

Why I wore it:

This was a much more humid spring day, and with the statement necklace adding some colour to the navy tee and the textured pencil skirt looking a little more formal than the casual jersey one above, I skipped adding a blazer to this in the office. It also let me show off the cute frill detail on the sleeves of this tee.

Again I wore the teal Mimco cocoon bag, as in the outfit above I like it against navy and grey, and I felt it was a good accessory. Added the blue Converse for yet another shade of blue and because they are the best shoes for the commute to work and running up and down the stairs at the office between meeting rooms on different levels.


Last worn: navy frill sleeve tee, colourful beaded necklace, textured grey pencil skirt, blue Converse, Mimco teal cocoon bag (above).

Other ways to wear: navy frill sleeve tee and jeans, textured grey pencil skirt with green, blue Converse and dress.

Navy Striped Dresses And Stella McCartney Falabella Bag

Two navy striped dress outfits for quiet office days in spring. Wearing my thrifted Stella McCartney Falabella bag with both dresses.

What I wore:

Necklace: Starfish Project Hannah turquoise bead necklace
Dress: Atmos&Here navy stripe tee dress 
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus jade beads
Bag: thrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black

Why I wore it:

Surprisingly, I realised I hadn't worn this green necklace with the navy striped shift dress before when I looked through my blog archives. I love wearing the green beads with navy so that seemed like a bit of an oversight! I was glad to wear the two together, and added a little more green with the beaded bracelets too. 

Kept to black with the rest of the accessories, with the Adidas Superstar sneakers and Stella McCartney Falabella bag, so that the green beaded necklace was the main statement in my outfit. This dress is so comfortable for a quiet desk centric day at the office, with a couple of errands after picking up the kids from school in the afternoon.


Last worn: green beaded necklace, navy striped shift dress, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Stella McCartney Falabella bag.

Other ways to wear: navy striped shift dress and leather jacket, Adidas Superstar sneakers and jeans, Stella McCartney Falabella bag and maxi skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: navy striped shift dress in second trimester.

What I wore:

Necklace: red multi strand beaded statement necklace
Dress: thrifted Kmart white and navy long sleeve stripe tee dress
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black

Why I wore it:

Since I liked the outfit formula above, I once again repeated it for another office day. This navy and white striped shift dress was a bargain $1 opshop find that I really enjoy wearing in cooler weather. The long sleeves and thicker fabric mean it doesn't get worn much over summer. It was perfect for this spring day though. With the white stripes in the dress I wore my white Converse for a bit of matchy-matchy, and again my Stella McCartney Falabella bag. It really goes with everything.

I added some contrasting colour like I did in the first outfit with another beaded necklace, this one a shorter red one but it still makes a nice statement against the navy striped dress.


Last worn: red beaded necklace, navy and white striped dress, white Converse, Stella McCartney Falabella bag (above).

Other ways to wear: navy and white striped dress and leather jacket, white Converse and skirt, Stella McCartney Falabella bag and jeans.

Printed Tanks and Black Rebecca Minkoff Unlined Tote Bag

Two printed tank outfits I wore recently for different sprint days, one for a cooler day with an extra cardigan, and another on a warmer day with just a simple tank and shorts together.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Dotti black cocoon cape cardigan
Earrings: gold heart and pearl earrings
Necklace: Jeanswest Taryn turquoise tassel bead necklace
Tank: Jeanswest 'Hannah' print tank in paradise pink multi
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual plus Roie Designs black leather Swarovski beaded wrap bracelet
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff medium unlined tote in black with shellac studded dome hardware

Why I wore it:

It was a colder, cloudy spring day so I pulled out another cardigan. This black cocoon cardigan is a cosy favourite, and I thought it was nice with the matching black converse, skinny jeans, and Rebecca Minkoff black tote bag. With all the black, the coral brushstroke tank really stood out. I haven't worn this tank for a while, and it was overdue a wear! 

This was a really easy and comfortable outfit as after work we had to attend a high school tour with my son. I picked the big Rebecca Minkoff tote bag as it fits all the essentials I needed plus water bottles for us as well.

Last worn: black cocoon cardigan, pearl earring, tassel necklace, brushstroke tank, wrap bracelet, faded skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote.

Other ways to wear: black cocoon cardigan and white jeans, brushstroke tank and maxi skirt, faded skinny jeans and leather jacket, Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: brushstroke tank in second trimester, Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Tank: thrifted Target mixed print colourful printed tank
Shorts: Jeanswest Parker printed shirred short
Shoes: thrifted Anko Kmart black strappy sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff medium unlined tote in black with shellac studded dome hardware

Why I wore it:

This was a much warmer spring day, so I didn't need the jeans or a cardigan. The humidity meant these light printed shorts were a good choice, and I thought I'd try a little print mixing with the bright tank. Although different, the prints all worked together nicely. I didn't wear a necklace as the outfit was busy enough with the prints together, and also because it was a bit too warm and humid to want to wear any extra accessories!

I worked from home after the school run, and then picked the kids up from school in the afternoon before  sports. I didn't need such a large tote bag as I wasn't carrying much, but this was a nice easy one to carry and I liked how it matched the black shorts and black sandals.


Last worn: printed tank, printed shorts, strappy sandals, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag (above).

Other ways to wear: printed tank and mustard cardigan, printed shorts and graphic tee, strappy sandals and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag and dress.

Wrap Dresses, Converse and Green Mini 5-Zip Bag

Wearing two printed wrap dresses and my little green Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag for office days recently.

What I wore:

Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Dress: Target Dannii Minogue Petites printed faux wrap dress
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff emerald green mini 5-zip rocker bag

Why I wore it:

Every time I wear this faux wrap dress I love it and wonder why it goes so long between wears! It was the perfect dress to wear on this hotter spring day. With some green in the print, I chose my little Rebecca Minkoff green Mini 5-zip bag to wear with it, even though the greens are different shades I really liked the darker green bag against this dress. And the blue Converse are also a different shade from the blue in the geometric print, but again I liked the combination.

Kept the necklace simple with my silver Tiffany notes heart necklace, and had a cardigan at my desk in case I got cold in the office aircon with the sleeveless dress. Didn't need it though, I got pretty warmed up just on the commute to the office!


Last worn: Tiffany heart necklace, Dannii Minogue faux wrap dress, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip bag.

Other ways to wear: Dannii Minogue faux wrap dress and blazer, blue Converse and shorts, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip bag and skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: Dannii Minogue faux wrap dress in second trimester

What I wore:

Earrings: DIY green and red marble clay circle earrings
Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace layered with Chanel necklace
Dress: Atmos&Here Arlette jersey wrap dress
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff emerald green mini 5-zip rocker bag

Why I wore it:

Another wrap dress from the depth of my wardrobe that was overdue a wear! Unfortunately I didn't love this outfit as much as the one above. I did like the black and white print with the pops of green from the Mini 5-zip bag and the green and red clay earrings I made, but the tulip hem of the dress was frustrating me a few times through the day as I sat at my desk. It was also quite a hot day for long sleeved wrap dress with such thick material, which may have made me more frustrated with it!

The dress is quite busy with the print and with the green statement earrings I wasn't sure what necklaces to add. Ended up layering two silver simple chain necklaces, as one on its own didn't look quite right. I liked the layered necklaces together, and I should wear them together more often.

Last worn: Atmos&Here wrap dress, Chanel necklace, Tiffany necklace, clay earrings, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag (above).

Other ways to wear: Atmos&Here wrap dress in winter, white Converse and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag and shorts.

Striped Tees, Skinny Jeans And Colourful Blazers With Balenciaga Bags

Adding some colour and a little more formality to casual striped tee and jeans outfit for the office with these bold and colourful blazers. Both blazers are preloved finds and  they are great additions to my work wardrobe.

What I wore:

Jacket: Glassons orange jersey blazer
Necklace: Jeanswest Taryn turquoise tassel bead necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in eddy stripe white / red terracotta
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bag: Balenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India with handmade textured strap

Why I wore it:

I've been enjoying wearing oranges and reds together. It's a very autumnal colour scheme, but this combination of the burgundy striped tee and the orange blazer was so subtle it felt like it worked well for spring. The faded black skinny jeans and the white Converse were a comfortable choice and nice neutrals, so I added a little extra colour with the Balenciaga first bag, which really pops against the orange blazer. The turquoise tassel necklace was a nice bit of matchy-matchy with it too.

It was a quiet, mostly sitting at my desk day, so jeans and a tee was perfect for my relaxed office. I did forget to throw the blazer back on for a meeting I had, but the meeting room was quite warm so it was better I didn't have that extra layer!


Last worn: orange blazer, burgundy stripe tee, turquoise tassel necklace, faded black skinny jeans, white leather Converse, bag strap, Balenciaga first bag.

Other ways to wear: orange blazer and skirt, burgundy stripe tee and maxi skirt, faded black skinny jeans and leather jacket, white leather Converse and dress, Balenciaga first bag and shorts.

---

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Jeanswest cobalt blue blazer
Necklace: rose gold and turquoise beaded necklace
Tee: Cotton On "The One" fitted v tee in Cole stripe white moonlight
Jeans: Nobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga Day bag in 2005 magenta

Why I wore it:

Another outfit following the same formula, showing how fun a bright blazer is even over a simple jeans and tee outfit. Again I went with a striped tee and black skinny jeans. The blue blazer, blue beaded necklace and blue Converse sneakers are all different shades but they work so well together. I can never have too many shades of blue in an outfit!

With all the black and blue, I added another bright Balenciaga bag. Like in the outfit above, I like the bright combination of the contrasting bag and blazer. And the magenta Balenciaga day bag was definitely overdue another wear, it's been a while since I last wore it!


Last worn: cobalt blue blazer, striped tee, beaded necklace, Nobody denim jeans, blue Converse, magenta Balenciaga day bag.

Other ways to wear: cobalt blue blazer and dress, striped tee and shorts, Nobody denim jeans and cardigan, blue Converse and dress, magenta Balenciaga day bag worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Balenciaga magenta day bag in third trimester.

Jeans, Tees and Blue Balenciaga Bags

Some simple jeans and tee outfits I wore recently, that I added some colourful necklaces and blue Balenciaga bags too.

What I wore:

Jacket: The Kindness Kimono 'Dream Catch Me' print
Necklace: adjustable coral flat bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton on grey tunic tee
Jeans: thrifted Cotton On The High Rise Skinny Jean black coated denim
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India

Why I wore it:

This grey tunic tee with the black coated jeans is a combination I've worn before, but this time around I tucked the tunic in and added some more colourful accessories. Last time I wore the two together, it was a more neutral outfit. But I added the printed cover up for a little extra colour and interest, and then the coral necklace as I felt it matched the colours in the print nicely.

I kept the shoes neutral with the black Converse, good for running around a little as I had the school run as well as working from home. Did add more colour with the turquoise blue Balenciaga first bag though, I really like how it pops against neutrals like the jeans and tee.



Last worn: printed cover up, coral necklace, grey tunic, coated jeans, Converse, Balenciaga first bag.

Other ways to wear: printed cover up and skirt, grey tunic and shorts, coated jeans and knit, Converse and dress, Balenciaga first bag and band tee.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted multi strand multi colour disc bead necklace with tassels
Tee: thrifted black and white space dye peplum tee
Jeans: thrifted Zara pink frayed hem skinny jeans
Shoes: thrifted Seed Heritage tan braided sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga giant hardware Day bag in 2009 tempete

Why I wore it:

Another blue Balenciaga bag! I picked my Balenciaga day as I hadn't worn it in a while and I needed a big bag to fit a book and some water bottles as I accompanied my son to a birthday party at an indoor play area. It was loud so I was intending on hiding in a corner and reading my book, but one of my friends was there with her child who was also attending so I chatted with her instead.

Kept it simple again with a jeans and tee outfit, although I changed it up a little with the peplum tee and the colourful pink jeans. Both the peplum top and jeans are opshop finds, as is the layered tassel necklace I added for a little more colour.


Last worn: peplum tee, tassel necklace, pink jeans, braided sandals, Balenciaga tempete day bag.

Other ways to wear: peplum tee and shorts, pink jeans and knit, braided sandals and dress, Balenciaga tempete day bag and skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: Balenciaga tempete day bag in third trimester.
