2 Outfits With Luna Blue Edie Shoulder Bag Worn With Pink

Two outfits with my Rebecca Minkoff Luna Edie shoulder bag worn with pink. Pink skirt in the first outfit, and pink jeans in the second. Both of these outfits were worn for working from home days.


What I wore:






Jacket: Jeanswest navy suede moto zip jacket
Necklace: handmade pink and white polymer clay beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Country Road grey crew neck tee
Skirt: thrifted Rama Boho Fashion pink and orange floral print button up midi skirt (new purchase)
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
BagRebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue


Why I wore it:

Both the tee and skirt are opshop finds! I thought the plain grey tee would be a good pairing with this bright and colourful pink and orange floral midi skirt, it's a nice neutral to balance out all the colour. it was still a cooler day so I layered up with this Jeanswest navy suede moto jacket. The Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag I picked because while I was working from home I did have the school run and a physio appointment to attend. This bag fits all my essentials plus had room for my latest library read while I was waiting for my appointment.

With the pinks in the skirt, I couldn't resist adding a little more pink with the accessories, with the pastel pink Converse and the pink beaded necklace I made. I liked all the different shades of pink in this outfit.


Last worn: navy suede moto jacket, Country Road grey tee, pink handmade necklacepink Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag. It's the first time I've worn the floral skirt as it's a recent opshop find.

Other ways to wearnavy suede moto jacket and dress, Country Road grey tee and wrap skirt, pink Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag and jeans.






What I wore:



JacketRebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Necklace: handmade blue, green and black beaded necklace
TeeCotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Jeans: thrifted Zara pink frayed hem skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue


Why I wore it:

Just like when I wore the outfit above, this was another working from home day. I went with my comfortable go-to for working from home days, with jeans and a tee. I made it a little more colourful with the pastel blue tee and the pink frayed hem jeans. I liked the two light shades of pink and blue together. I did have to layer up a little, so I wore this cosy Rebecca Minkoff knitted ruana poncho, perfect for keeping me warm on the school run and when the kids had sports in the evening.

Again I had another appointment during the day, the doctors this time, so I wore the Luna blue Edie bag again to put my latest book inside.

I thought the clay necklace would look good with this outfit, with the blue and black being similar to the blue bag, and tee and knitted poncho, but I think maybe a different necklace might have worked better with this, maybe something longer. Still, a good outfit for a quiet day.


Last worn: black knitted poncho, pastel blue tee, handmade necklace, pink Zara jeans, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag (above).

Printed Tees, Dusters, Skinny Jeans and Converse

Warmer spring weather in Brisbane means I'm wearing more of my lighter layers more often, like both of these neutral duster cardigans. Wearing them with black skinny jeans, printed tees, colourful Rebecca Minkoff bags and Converse.


What I wore:






Jacket: Ripe longline grey cardigan
Earrings: Colette Sangria sunset disc stud tassel earrings
Necklace: layered silver necklaces
TeeSass and Bide 'New Day Rising' tee in orange leopard print
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip


Why I wore it:

Very colourful outfit for working from home, with the school run and a couple of errands in the afternoon. Jeans and a tee is a staple for me on working from home days, and I felt it had been a while since I wore this Sass and Bide neon orange leopard print tee so it was good to get it out again. The neon orange tee and the matching earrings added some colour to the grey cocoon duster cardigan and black skinny jeans, and then I added more colour with the little yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag. I like the combination of yellow and orange together.

Had the comfortable Converse for a little bit of running around with the errands and the school run, and the neutral brown was a good choice for this outfit.


Last worn: grey cocoon cardigan, neon leopard tee, neon earrings, zip detail skinny jeans, brown Converse, yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip.

Other ways to weargrey cocoon cardigan and skirt, neon leopard tee and shorts, zip detail skinny jeans and knit jumper, brown Converse and maxi skirt, yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip and dress.






What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted TEMT long black duster cardigan (new purchase)
Necklace: silver knot necklace
Teethrifted navy stripe Coca-Cola logo tee
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAC redyed with Angelus hot pink leather paint


Why I wore it:

This outfit is a similar formula to the last one above, but a lot darker with the black duster, black skinny jeans, and matching black Converse. The printed Cocoa-Cola logo tee adds a little extra colour with the red logo print, but I still felt this outfit was a bit dull so I added this neon pink Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC I redyed myself. It was the perfect pop.

I needed something comfortable so that's why I went with jeans and a tee and Converse again. The boys sports club had an outdoor fundraising event in the evening, but during the day I went down to set up. I didn't need this duster during the day, it warmed up nicely, and I thought it would keep me warmer in the evening as well, although by 9pm I was wishing I'd picked something a bit cosier to wear! It was a good night though, and this was nice and comfortable for helping with the setup and practical for attending the event later in the evening - just a shame it wasn't a little warmer. Not bad for the first wear of this black duster I picked up at the opshop though.


Last worn: Coca-Cola logo tee, black skinny jeans, black Converse, redyed pink Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC. It's the first time I've worn the duster as it's a recent opshop find.

Anko Denim Trench Coat With Black Blouses and Colourful Jeans

Adding a little colour to winter black blouse office outfits with colourful jeans, and combatting the cold winter commute with this Anko oversized denim trench coat.


What I wore:






JacketKmart Anko full length oversized denim trench coat
Necklace: handmade yellow and white polymer clay beaded necklace
Blouse: thrifted Seed heritage black dolman sleeve blouse
Jeans: Jeanswest Vicki skinny pant in moss green
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
BagChloe periwinkle small Paraty


Why I wore it:

I wore this as I needed a nice easy outfit for a day full of meetings at my desk. The black blouse is a lovely recent opshop find. It's got a bit of texture and these amazing blouson sleeves. The denim trench unfortunately covers the sleeves up, but the oversized style meant it accommodated the big sleeves nicely. With the black Converse matching the black blouse, and the neutral olive skinny jeans, I wanted to add a little pop of colour to this. This polymer clay necklace I recently made was perfect. I liked the burst of yellow against the black.

The Chloe Periwinkle Paraty bag was another little bit of matching, as it's similar to the blue denim wash on the trench coat.


Last worn: Anko denim trench coat, Seed Heritage black blouse, handmade necklace, olive green jeans, black Converse, Chloe periwinkle Paraty bag.

Necklace: thrifted bronze foil statement necklace
Blouse: Kmart black batwing button up blouse
Jeans: thrifted Emerson red skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
BagRebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather


Why I wore it:

I liked the outfit formula above, so repeated it again with another black blouse, this one also an opshop find, and another pair of colourful jeans. I haven't worn these red ones in a while, although they have been worn a lot in the past and I've achieved over 30 wears with them. it was good to get them out again for another office day.

I kept things simple, again matching the black blouse to the black Converse, and again wore the same oversized denim trench coat. I even wore another blue bag this time too, this Rebecca Minkoff deep teal croc embossed Love Too bag.


Last worn: oversized denim trench coat (above), black batwing blouse, bronze beaded necklace, red jeans, black Converse (above), Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag.

Graphic Tees, Jeans and Waterfall Cardigans

More easy mum life outfits, with graphic tees and jeans worn together with colourful waterfall cardigans and Converse.


What I wore:






Jacket: Jeanswest Dana drape knit cardi in boysenberry
Earrings: Kmart lilac statement ball drop earrings
Tee: Monsterthreads star print graphic tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
BagPolene numero neuf mini in textured mauve 


Why I wore it:

I liked all the matchy-matchy purple in this outfit! With the purple graphic print, I pulled out some lilac accessories. These beaded earrings are such a good match for the lilac of my Polene Numero Neuf mini bag, and I added another shade of purple with this berry waterfall cardigan. The kids had a sports event on and I took a little time to myself in the morning to have an enjoyable opshop browse after running a few errands.

The day heated up nicely, so much so that I left the cardigan in the car when I went to pickup the kids. Unfortunately it left me with no layers to remove when a bird pooped on me, but my friend told me it was good luck as she helpfully cleaned it up with some tissues. The Polene Numero Neuf bag is a cute mini size for just the essentials, but it meant I had no tissues on me! Thankfully I could go home and jump in the shower, and it all washed off the tee.


Last worn: lilac statement earrings, graphic planet tee, magenta waterfall cardigan, grey skinny jeans, pink Converse, Polene Numero Neuf mini bag.

Other ways to weargraphic planet tee and skirt, magenta waterfall cardigan worn 30 ways grey skinny jeans worn 30 ways, pink Converse and dress, Polene Numero Neuf mini bag and skirt.

Perfect for pregnancywaterfall cardigan in first trimester.





What I wore:






Jacket: Jeanswest waterfall drape cardigan in scarlett marle
EarringsMIMCO fleur stud silver earrings
Tee: Uniqlo Mickey Mouse 'Mickey Stands' short sleeve graphic tee
Jeans: thrifted Cotton On The High Rise Skinny Jean black coated denim
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
BagMIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold


Why I wore it:

Another graphic tee and jeans outfit, this time with my coated denim skinny jeans. I wore Converse with this outfit too, as there was a lot of walking to do, taking advantage of a public holiday day off to take the kids to MovieWorld theme park.

Again I went a little matchy-matchy, with the red waterfall cardigan matching the red in the Mickey mouse tee, although the shades are slightly different. The black Mimco Mim-mazing crossbody bag is a classic and it matched the coated denim skinny jeans well, although I did also carry a big reusable tote for everyone's water bottles.

Black Cardigan and Floral Printed Dresses With Leggings

Last time I wore this cardigan I commented on how it's been in my wardrobe for so long, even before the blog! While I wore it then with jeans, it's nice and warm for wearing over dresses too, as I've worn it here with both of these floral dresses for winter weekend days.


What I wore:





JacketCotton On black knit wrap cardigan
EarringsMIMCO fleur stud silver earrings
NecklaceTiffany diamonds by the yard necklace, custom Cooper charm by Silhoupette
DressJaase Celine autumn leaves mini dress
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
Bag: thrifted Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr Q Convertible clutch in electric violet


Why I wore it:

This Jaase navy autumn leaves print Celine dress is a firm favourite. Being a light viscose it's good in warmer weather, but it layers nicely for winter with a cosy cardigan like this, especially when paired with leggings and my trusty black ankle boots.

The only thing I regretted about this outfit was the leggings - they kept me warm but we visited a friend with dogs that shed and black cardigan was maybe not the best choice - the leggings got covered in dog fur! The dogs were cute enough to make up for it though.

I tried to dress the outfit up a little with the layered necklaces, but they were tangled and hidden behind my hair in the photos sadly. 

There isn't any pink in the autumn leaves print on this dress but I still felt like carrying this magenta Marc by Marc Jacobs convertible clutch - it was an opshop find a while back and I've been enjoying wearing it a lot lately.


Last worn: black cardigan, studded earrings, Tiffany necklace, silhouette necklace, Jaase Celine autumn leaves dress, black ankle boots, Marc by Marc Jacobs convertible clutch bag.

Other ways to wearblack cardigan and band tee, Jaase Celine autumn leaves dress and blazerankle boots worn 30 ways, Marc by Marc Jacobs convertible clutch bag and skirt.

Perfect for pregnancyankle boots in second trimester.





What I wore:




JacketCotton On black knit wrap cardigan
Earrings: Kmart silver leaf drop chandelier earrings
NecklaceTiffany diamonds by the yard necklace, Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Dress: thrifted no label pastel floral print babydoll dress
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

No ankle boots this time, but otherwise a very similar outfit to the one above, with another floral dress, leggings and the black cardigan again. I added the silver statement earrings to match the silver layered necklaces and the silver hardware on the Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag.

A big bag was needed for the day as I had to carry a bit around. We had church in the morning and then I volunteered at a Bunnings fundraising sausage sizzle in the afternoon so I went with my comfortable Converse for being on my feet most of the day. The pastel pink is a much lighter pink than the pink in the print of the dress, but I still liked the extra touch of pink they added to this outfit, and I was very glad of the comfortable shoes at the end of the sausage sizzle!

The only thing I didn't like about this outfit was the earrings - I've never had issues with them before but they kept falling out while I was manning the sausage sizzle - had to put them in my bag at one point as I kept knocking them out accidentally! Thankfully I didn't lose either of them.


Last worn: black cardigan (above), silver earrings, Tiffany necklace (above), Tiffany heart necklace, pastel floral print dress, pink Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag.

Other ways to wearblack cardigan and jeans, pastel floral print dress with yellow, pink Converse and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag and printed jeans.

Striped Tees, Maxi Skirts and Leather Jacket With Chloe Bags

Two maxi skirts and stripe tee outfits, layered up for Brisbane's winter with my Jeanswest black leather jacket. Nice and cosy for some working from home days.


What I wore:






JacketJeanswest black leather moto jacket
Earrings: Colette white pearl beaded gum leaf tassel earrings
Necklace: handmade yellow and white polymer clay beaded necklace
Teethrifted Mossimo black and white striped v-neck tee 
Skirtthrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
ShoesAdidas Superstar sneakers
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

I really like the yellow beaded necklace worn with this ochre maxi skirt! I like the colour it added to this darker outfit, with the black leather jacket and the black and white striped tee. I added a little more lightness with the Chloe Ethel bag too, I needed a big bag despite working from home, as I carried a book for an appointment in the morning, after the school run.

It's not the first time I've worn this orange maxi skirt with a striped tee, I like the combination. So much so that I repeated it again a week or so later.


Last worn: Jeanswest leather jacket, gum leaf earrings, black striped tee, orange maxi skirt, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Chloe Ethel bag. First time I've worn the necklace as I recently made it.

Other ways to wearJeanswest leather jacket and dressblack striped tee and jeans, orange maxi skirt and jumper, Adidas Superstar sneakers and jeans, Chloe Ethel bag and pencil skirt.

NecklaceZuriCollections blue polymer clay necklace
TeeCotton On The One fitted v tee in eddy stripe white / red terracotta
Skirt: thrifted Crossroads black ruffle hem maxi skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
BagChloe small Paraty bag in wine purple


Why I wore it:


Another working from home day, in another stripe tee and maxi skirt outfit. With the black Jeanswest leather jacket again, this time matching with the black maxi skirt. Like the maxi skirt above, this one was an opshop find and I really enjoy wearing it! I wore the comfortable Converse as I had a bit of running around to do with the school run in the morning and afternoon. I thought that this rust striped tee was due another wear, and I like the little touch of colour with all the black.

The wine purple Chloe Paraty bag isn't a match with the rust stripes on the tee, but I thought the colours looked nice together, especially with all the black in-between.


Last worn: Jeanswest leather jacket (above), blue beaded necklace, rust stripe tee, black maxi skirt, brown Converse, Chloe wine purple Paraty bag.

Leopard Print Cardigans, Pink Tees and Jeans

Two similar outfits, with thrifted leopard print cardigans, pink tees, black skinny jeans and Converse for some recent working from home days.


What I wore:



Jacket: thrifted Dotti leopard print long cardigan (new purchase)
Earrings: gold heart and pearl earrings
Necklace: handmade purple polymer clay beaded necklace
TeeCle The Label Charlotte tee in ombre rose
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
BagMIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold


Why I wore it:

First time I've worn this cardigan on the blog. it was a very lucky opshop find! I'm always on the hunt for cute cardigans and I've been really lucky recently with finding them! This one is a nice addition to my wardrobe, and I like pink and leopard print together so this ombre pink tee seemed like an obvious choice. I went matchy-matchy with the pink Converse, although it's a different shade of pink from the tee I liked the two pinks together, and I added the purple necklace for a little more colour.

Nice casual outfit for a vet appointment, the school run, and working from home.


Last worn: pearl earringsombre pink tee, black skinny jeans, pink Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag. First time I've worn the cardigan as it's a recent opshop purchase, and first time I've worn the necklace as I recently made it.

Other ways to wear: ombre pink tee and shorts, black skinny jeans and graphic tee, pink Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and skirt.






What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted no label black and white leopard print cocoon cardigan
Necklace: thrifted wood and marble bead thrifted necklace with white string
Tee: Kmart short sleeve cotton modal tee in tulip pink
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

Since I liked the outfit above so much, I repeated the formula again with different pieces. I wore black Converse this time, matching the black skinny jeans and the black background on this black and white leopard print cardigan. like the cardigan in the first outfit, this was also an opshop find! It's nice to have some printed cardigans to add a little extra interest to block colour tees like this pink one in winter. Again I went with a darker bag, this Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag. I was working from home, did the school run, and also had a physio appointment, so this Cupid bag was perfect for fitting all my essentials plus my latest library read.

Kmart Tiered Maxi Dresses, Leather Jackets And Rebecca Minkoff Love Bags

Adding some colour to winter office outfits with these block colour Kmart Anko tiered midi dresses, scarves and leather jackets. Both of these outfits I was wearing one of my Rebecca Minkoff Love bags.


What I wore:






JacketWitchery black belted moto leather jacket
Scarf: Fashion Scarf Girl mixed print polka dots and stripes scarf
Dress: Kmart short sleeve tiered jersey midi dress in amber
ShoesAdidas Superstar sneakers
BagRebecca Minkoff Love cross body bag in grey

Why I wore it:

This was a very cold winter day, back in July. I needed all the layers to stay cosy! With this amber tiered midi dress, I often wear a lot of printed scarves. No chance of clashing as the dress has no print, and the block amber colour is a nice backdrop to show off a printed scarf. I liked this grey and white mixed print scarf, it was a cosy addition to my outfit for the winter commute and looked good in the office too.

The Adidas Superstar sneakers probably should have been swapped out for boots to keep me even warmer, but they were comfortable even if my ankles got a little chilly. 

With the orange dress adding so much colour to the outfit, I added a neutral bag to go with the grey scarf and black leather jacket and neutral shoes, this Rebecca Minkoff quilted Love bag.


Last worn: leather jacket, mixed print scarf, Kmart tiered midi dress, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff quilted Love bag.

Other ways to wearleather jacket and stripes, mixed print scarf and knit, Kmart tiered midi dress and denim jacket, Adidas Superstar sneakers and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff quilted Love bag and jeans.

What I wore:






JacketJeanswest black leather moto jacket
Scarf: thrifted checked purple pashmina scarf
Dress: Kmart short sleeve tiered jersey dress in Fuchsia
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
BagRebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather


Why I wore it:

Another day in the office, another Kmart tiered midi dress! I have 3 of these dresses and I love how comfortable and colourful they are! Unlike the outfit above, I went a little more colourful with the accessories with this.

I added the pink Converse, although they aren't the same shade of pink as the fuchsia tiered dress I liked the two pinks together. The purple checked scarf is super warm, and added more colour. So did the deep teal Rebecca Minkoff croc embossed Love Too bag. I went with a neutral jacket topper though, again adding a black leather jacket to keep me warm on the cold morning commute.


Last worn: Jeanswest leather jacket, checked pashmina, fuchsia pink tiered midi dress, pink Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Love too bag.

Red Maxi Skirt and Tee Outfits With Chloe Ethel Bag

Two colourful maxi skirt and tee outfits with leather jackets for some working from home days with appointments to attend. I like wearing maxi skirts in warmer weather, but also enjoy layering them up for winter.


What I wore:






JacketWitchery black belted moto leather jacket
Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings
Necklace: handmade tan and orange polymer clay beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Target cotton and modal relaxed red tee
Skirtno label cream and brown floral print midi skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

I've been wearing a lot of jeans lately so I decided to pull out some of my maxi skirts! This one is so good to wear with plain tees like this recently thrifted red one. I really like the print with block colour tees, although this is the first time I've worn it with red.

Added the brown and khaki Chloe Ethel bag as I felt it complimented the colours in the print of the skirt well, and because it fit all my essentials plus my latest library book read for waiting for a dentist appointment after work and school pickup. As it was a cold winter day, I layered up with the Witchery leather jacket to keep warm.


Last worn: stud earrings, Witchery leather jacket, printed maxi skirt, brown Converse, Chloe Ethel bag. First time I've worn the necklace as I recently made it, and first time I've worn the tee as it was a recent opshop buy.

Other ways to wearWitchery leather jacket and dress, printed maxi skirt and cami, brown Converse and dress, Chloe Ethel bag and jeans







What I wore:






JacketJeanswest black leather moto jacket
Necklace: adjustable coral flat bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Country Road grey crew neck tee
Skirt: thrifted NWT Beginning Boutique Sahara red-orange maxi skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

Another appointment during the day while working from home - physio this time - meant I wore my Chloe Ethel bag again to fit in another book. This outfit is similar to the one above as it's the same bag, a maxi skirt and tee, with a lot of red, but it's got a grey tee instead and an unprinted red maxi skirt. Both the maxi skirt and the grey tee are opshop finds, and I liked wearing them together. As in the outfit above, I needed a little extra warmth so I wore this black Jeanswest leather jacket.

While the coral necklace is a more orange shade than the bright coral red of the maxi skirt, I liked the two paired together, especially against the neutral grey tee.


Last worn: black leather jacket, grey tee, coral necklace, red tiered maxi skirt, white Converse, Chloe Ethel bag (above).
