4 Simple Dress Outfits For Beach Life At Tangalooma

This is an overdue post! Over Lunar New Year we stayed at Tangalooma with the in-laws, on the beautiful Mulgumpin Island. Last time hubby and I were there was for our honeymoon and I have no idea why it took us so long to visit again, it's the best place. Most of the time I was in a bikini, but I did also wear a few dresses for dinner and sometimes as a cover up over my bikinis. I packed light, with one bag, my big Neverfull tote, and just a few dresses. Didn't even take my camera so just Instagram pics from my phone.

What I wore:

Hat: Big W bow detail sunhat
Dress: thrifted peach and white floral print tiered sundress
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

This dress makes such a good cover up! Perfect for a lazy day by the pool. It was suitable for going out for lunch as well. We did have a little rain shower, which didn't bother the kids as they were already in the pool! And thankfully this dress dried quickly when the sun came back out.


Last worn: sunhat, tiered sundress, Louis Vuitton damier azur Neverfull.

Other ways to wear: tiered sundress and denim jacket, Louis Vuitton damier azur Neverfull and maxi skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton damier azur Neverfull in second trimester.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted gold and pastel blue beaded necklace with grey string
Dress: thrifted no label pastel floral print babydoll dress
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

Another great cover up, I've worn this dress to a pool party before as it's nice and light. It's a quick drying viscose and such a lovely print. As you can see in the photo, it was a bit of a rainy start to the day! We headed out to the pool anyway and thankfully the sun came out before we went scuba diving round the Tangalooma wrecks. It was a little scary as with the wind and the earlier rain the waves were really high, but under the water around the wrecks was just stunning, so many fish! We had the best time.

It stayed dry all afternoon, and hubby and the kids enjoyed the pool while I had a very indulgent beachside massage. Absolute bliss.


Last worn: floral babydoll dress, gold and blue beaded necklace, Louis Vuitton Neverfull (above).

Other ways to wear: floral babydoll dress and blazer, Louis Vuitton Neverfull worn 30 ways.

What I wore:

Necklace: double circle hammered pendant necklace
Dress: thrifted colourful geometric print maxi dress
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

While we missed the evening's kookaburra feeding there were still some of the birds hanging around after the event, so I tried to take a pic with them. This kookaburra quickly figured no more food was coming and flew off though!

I wore this fun geometric print maxi dress with my Louis Vuitton Neverfull and the gold statement necklace when we all went out for dinner. The barman even managed to knock up a mocktail for the kids that was similar to the 'welcome drinks' I enjoyed when I came to Tangalooma as a kid.


Last worn: hammered gold necklace, geometric print maxi dress, Louis Vuitton Neverfull (above).

Other ways to wear: geometric print maxi dress worn 2 ways, Louis Vuitton Neverfull and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton damier azur Neverfull in third trimester.

What I wore:

Necklace: double circle hammered pendant necklace
Dress: Kmart strappy tiered sundress in watercolour blue and blush print
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

Another simple tiered dress for dinner. I picked this one, also another great bikini cover up, to wear out for dinner and for our dolphin feeding. The waves were pretty high and we had to go waist deep into the water so I figured a light dress like this one would be best as it would dry quickly afterwards.

Did get a little difficult walking into the surf trying to hold onto my son, a fish for the dolphin, and the dress that was floating up around me! But once we got further into the water the wetness held it down. It was so fun feeding the dolphins again. There's a pod of local wild dolphins that come up to Tangalooma pier every night for food and the dolphin we fed was the son of the dolphin that my sister and I fed a couple times as kids, and that my husband and I fed on our honeymoon! Such a special thing to share with our boys.


Last worn: hammered necklace (above), blue printed tiered dress, Havaianas, Louis Vuitton Neverfull (above).

Other ways to wear: blue printed tiered dress under a tee, Louis Vuitton Neverfull worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton damier azur Neverfull at 38 weeks.

Kmart Printed Culotte Shorts With Red Tees

Wearing my two pairs of Kmart printed culotte shorts with some red tees for hot and humid days at the end of summer in Brisbane.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted gold and pastel blue beaded necklace with grey string
Tee: Cotton On The One sangria v-neck tee
Shorts: Kmart culotte short in navy lemon print
Shoes: black matte slim Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

Wore this to start our long holiday weekend with family on Tangalooma Resort (on Mulgumpin island). I had my big Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote as it's both a good beach bag and a great travel bag! It easily fit some snacks, bottles of water, and activities for the ferry ride over to entertain the kids and I, and it meant I didn't need another bag for day to day beach life.

We left early morning and got to enjoy the beach and pools before dinner. It was a busy day of travel but so relaxing once we got the resort on the island. Last time I stayed at Tangalooma was for our honeymoon, so it was great spending time there again. The kids loved it, really should have taken them sooner!

While there is no red in the print of these culotte shorts, I thought the red and navy combination was nice and colourful, and this was a comfortable outfit for our trip.


Last worn: red tee, blue necklace, navy printed culotte shorts, Havaianas, Louis Vuitton Neverfull.

Other ways to wear: red tee and turquoise, navy printed culotte shorts and cardigan, Louis Vuitton Neverfull worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton Neverfull at 38 weeks.

---

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted metallic clay bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Target crew neck tee coral red
Shorts: thrifted Kmart pastel soft culotte shorts in floral print
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus thrifted cream resin bangle duo set and Polka Luka red resin bangle
Bag: thrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black

Why I wore it:

While the outfit above is all things bought new, this outfit is mostly thrifted, except for the sneakers! The coral red tee, beaded necklace, pastel print culotte shorts, resin bracelets and Stella McCartney Falabella bag are all opshop finds.

Just like the outfit above, this shorts and tee outfit was super comfortable. Stayed in Brisbane with this though, no exciting trips, as I was working from home and had the school run. Needed the navy Sketchers sneakers as I'd injured my knee on our holiday, and needed the extra support.

I liked the washed coral tee with this - there is a little rust in the print on these culotte shorts and while the red tee and the red resin bangle aren't an exact shade match, I thought the pieces complimented each other nicely.


Last worn: coral tee, statement beaded necklace, resin bangles, pastel print culotte shorts, Sketchers, Stella McCartney Falabella bag.

Other ways to wear: coral tee and skirt, pastel print culotte shorts and cardigan, Sketchers and graphic tee, Stella McCartney Falabella bag and maxi dress.

Bright Tiered Linen Dresses and Tote Bags

Wearing my two new linen dresses I got for Christmas with practical tote bags for some summer holidays days out with the kids recently. I really like this new mixed metal necklace I got - so much that I've worn it in both outfits!

What I wore:

Necklace: mixed metal hammered pendant necklace
Dress: Jeanswest Lilah tiered linen dress in orange (Christmas present)
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

It had been a very wet and stormy summer holidays, but luckily after a few big storms earlier in the week, the weather cleared for a glorious day up north at the beach. It was still pretty hot and humid, and it was a relief when we got home to the aircon! As I had to carry snacks and water bottles for the kids I took this big Louis Vuitton damier Azur Neverfull tote bag. Perfect for the beach! The orange tiered Jeanswest linen dress was nice and cheerful, and a good swimwear cover up. I appreciated the linen in the heat as well!

These Kmart slides were nice and comfortable and practical for a beach day too.

After a dip in the sea to cool off we had lunch with family before heading home before another round of predicted storms that afternoon.


Last worn: tan slides, Louis Vuitton damier azur neverfull. First time I've worn the dress and the necklace as they were Christmas presents.

Other ways to wear: tan slides and printed dress, Louis Vuitton Neverfull worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton Neverfull at 38 weeks.

What I wore:

Earrings: thrifted red dinosaur skeleton earrings

Necklace: mixed metal hammered pendant necklace
Dress: Kmart short sleeve tiered frill mini dress in Papaya (Christmas present)
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff medium unlined tote in black with shellac studded dome hardware

Why I wore it:

This was another humid day, unfortunately a very rainy one! Our plan for the day lined up though as we made good use of the exhibition tickets my friend got us for Christmas to go see the Lego Jurassic World Brickman exhibition at the Queensland museum. Being the summer school holidays, and it having been a very wet week, it took us a while to get through the traffic and find a park! But thankfully once we eventually got there the kids had a blast. It was one of their favourite exhibitions at the museum we've ever seen.

Lots of Lego and interactive things made for some very happy kids. I wore the little dinosaur skeleton earrings as a nod to the event but they are a little hard to spot in the photo!

I didn't carry any snacks as you can't eat in the museum but I did take my large Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag to make sure I had plenty of space for all our water bottles. I really liked the neutral black against this mango tiered linen dress. The Adidas Superstar sneakers were a practical choice for the wet day as well.


Last worn: Kmart papaya tiered linen dress, dino earrings, mixed metal necklace (above), Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag.

Other ways to wear: Kmart papaya tiered linen dress and blue dress, Adidas Superstar sneakers and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag and shorts.

Navy Tee And Leopard Print Skirt Office Outfits

I have been loving leopard lately, and so I got my leopard print skirts out again for some summer office days. Both of these leopard skirts I paired with navy tees, comfortable Converse and my Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote bag.

What I wore:

Necklace: gold beaded statement multi strand necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Ruby frill sleeve Ric Rac detailed tee in deep iris
Skirt: thrifted ruffle hem leopard print midi skirt 
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

I decided to wear this navy frill sleeve tee with the leopard print skirt, the navy is a great neutral against the print and surprisingly I hadn't worn navy with this skirt yet. And to showcase the pretty frill sleeve detail on the tee, I didn't add a blazer. Without a blazer, I did try dress this up a little more for the office with the big statement necklace. This gold multi-strand necklace was an opshop find, just like the skirt.

Comfortable Converse for the commute and walking around the office, and my big Louis Vuitton neverfull tote for carrying a few extra things along with my essentials for work. As it was back in December that I wore this, I did a little Christmas shopping in my lunch break!


Last worn: gold statement necklace, navy frill sleeve tee, leopard print midi skirt, Converse, Louis Vuitton Neverfull.

Other ways to wear: navy frill sleeve tee and shorts, leopard print midi skirt with black, Converse and jeans, Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote bag worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester, Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote bag in third trimester.

30 Ways To Wear: Louis Vuitton Damier Azur Neverfull

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Nadine 3/4 sleeve dusky pink blazer
Earrings: Michael Hill stud earrings with aqua cubic zirconia in sterling silver
Necklace: thrifted Eb&Ive turquoise wooden bead multi strand statement necklace
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Skirt: Target animal print ruffle hem mini skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

Unlike the outfit above, I decided to add a blazer with this. I felt that even with the big statement necklace, this shorter leopard print skirt and navy tee was a little too casual for the day I had ahead of me in the office, so it needed the blush blazer. I really like blue and pink together and this blush pink works well with the navy tee and the turquoise multi-strand necklace.

I'm always a little sad the cute lurex detail thread on this tee never shows up in photos - it makes it feel so special when you see it in person! Again I went with Converse, blue ones this time to coordinate with the beaded necklace. And while I didn't need to carry too many extra things with me on this day I wore my Louis Vuitton Neverfull again as it's a good office bag!


Last worn: turquoise multi strand necklace, earrings, blush blazer, lurex navy tee, leopard print skirt, Converse, Louis Vuitton Neverfull (above).

Other ways to wear: blush blazer worn 2 ways, lurex navy tee and maxi skirt, leopard print skirt and leather jacket, Converse and shorts, Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote bag worn 30 ways.
 
Perfect for pregnancy: blush blazer in third trimester, Louis Vuitton Neverfull at 38 weeks.

Magnificent 8 - Simply Red

I had the hardest time coming up with outfits to share for this quarter's Magnificent 8. I was just overwhelmed with choice! We decided to feature red as it's a great power colour, but I have so much red in my wardrobe. Even though I've been wearing a lot of pink lately, I have no shortage of red things to wear. In the end I went with the most red thing I own, a dress, and then a second outfit with just a couple pops of red from accessories.

What I wore:

Earrings: neutral clay disc earrings

Necklace: thrifted wooden yellow tassel necklace
Dress: Kmart Whsdch Red short sleeved tiered midi dress
Shoes: Rebecca Minkoff Georgina studded gladiator sandals in blush
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

This was a really fun day, but so hot! We headed out to try out a new park and have lunch with my family and my aunt who was visiting the coast recently. The new park was wonderful, so many different play spaces and things for the kids to enjoy! It was really good spending time with the family too, even if the park was so popular we had to wait a little to use the BBQ and cook lunch.

Knew this Kmart tiered dress would be perfect for the heat - it's nice and light for hot days, and there was a lovely breeze to keep us cool. I did wonder if this dress quite made the theme for the Magnificent 8 prompt, as it's more coral than a true red, but I decided it was close enough!

The sandals were a must have with the warm weather, and the Louis Vuitton Neverfull is always a practical choice to load up with water bottles for a BBQ in the park.


Last worn: clay earrings, Kmart coral tiered midi dress, yellow tassel necklace, gladiator sandals, Louis Vuitton MM neverfull.
 
Other ways to wear: Kmart coral tiered midi dress and scarf, studded sandals worn 30 ways, Louis Vuitton Neverfull worn 30 ways..

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton Neverfull in third trimester.

What I wore:

Scarf: Alexander McQueen red skull-print modal and cashmere-blend scarf
Tank: Cotton On 'eternity' tank in charcoal marle
Skirt: Target animal print ruffle hem mini skirt
Shoes: Wittner 'Jasmarie' studded sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus wooden beaded bracelet stack and red gem bracelet
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag in cherry red

Why I wore it:

This was a much more neutral outfit than the one above, before I added all the red accessories to it. If wearing a lot of a power colour seems like too much, there is always accessories to let you add a touch of it to your outfit!

This grey tank and cute ruffle hem leopard print skirt were a great neutral base to my outfit, especially with the studded sandals. I knew the red saddle bag would be great against them, and it's roomier than it looks! I had all the essentials plus a book in there as while I was working from home, I had an appointment to attend before picking the kids up from school.

Echoed the reds and browns with the bracelet stack, but still felt this outfit was missing a little something, so added the red Alexander McQueen skull print scarf. I like print mixing with these skull scarves, even if I only wore the scarf for the school drop off in the morning, as the weather warmed up so quickly it wasn't needed later in the afternoon.


Last worn: red skull scarf, grey tank, Target animal print skirt, studded sandals, Rebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag.

Other ways to wear: red skull scarf and dress, grey tank and shorts, Target animal print skirt and leather jacket, studded sandals and jeans, red unlined studded saddle bag worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: red skull scarf in third trimester, grey tank in third trimester, sandals in second trimester.

Printed Dresses and Blazers And LV Neverfull | Weekday Wear Link Up

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up I'm sharing two printed dresses and blazer outfits that I wore to the office recently.

What I wore:

Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings

Jacket: Jeanswest grey jersey blazer
Necklace: personalised gold children's names charm necklace
Dress: Jaase Celine autumn leaves mini dress
Shoes: Atmos&Here tan Lola leather ankle boots
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

I wouldn't have normally have reached for this dress for a day in the office - it is a little casual, but I felt the ankle boots and the grey blazer dressed it up enough for a quiet day. And I wanted something that would be suitable for a day at work and an evening out, as after work I headed out to a graduation evening for a family member. Needed the big Louis Vuitton Neverfull to pack with everything for the day and the evening. It was so much fun, although a very late night for the kids, it was so good to celebrate the graduation.

I think this blazer was the perfect topper over this dress to make it more office-ready. The longer length was really good with the ruffle hem of the dress.


Last worn: heart studs, grey jersey blazer, charm necklace, Jaase dress, ankle boots, Louis Vuitton Neverfull.

Other ways to wear: grey jersey blazer and jeans, Jaase dress and denim jacket, ankle boots and midi dress, Louis Vuitton MM Neverfull worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton Neverfull at 38 weeks.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Valleygirl navy jersey blazer
Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Dress: Kmart teal floral print midi dress
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

This dress, unlike the one above, has been worn to the office many times. It's such a good office dress as it's super comfortable and the teal colour goes with all my blazers. I liked this navy blazer with the teal background of the dress, and how the white gingham on the cuffs matched the white in the floral print. Needed comfortable shoes after aggravating my knee injury the prior weekend, so went with these blue Converse. I think the different shades of blue with the blazer, dress, Chucks and damier Azur print of the Neverfull all worked well together.


Last worn: navy blazer, Tiffany heart necklace, Kmart teal floral midi dress, blue Converse, Louis Vuitton Neverfull (above).

Other ways to wear: navy blazer and pencil skirt, Kmart teal floral midi dress, blue Converse and shorts, Louis Vuitton MM Neverfull worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton MM Neverfull in third trimester.

Sundresses and Denim Jackets With Damier Azur Neverfull | Weekday Wear Link Up

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up, sharing two times I wore the classic spring combination of a tiered sundress and denim jacket with sneakers, for working from home and school run days. I'm really enjoying Brisbane's spring weather at the moment!

What I wore:

Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace: thrifted pastel pink and wooden hexagon bead necklace
Dress: thrifted peach and white floral print tiered sundress
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

How gorgeous is this dress? It is a bit loose on me, but for $1 at the opshop I had to get it. The tag was cut out but I'm fairly sure it's one of the Kmart sundresses which I already have a couple of. I like the pastel palm print, the peach is so nice against the white background. I matched the white with the white Converse and the checks on the Louis Vuitton damier azur Neverfull tote.

Needed a big bag for a couple of errands as we had to take Cooper to the vets after the school run, the Neverfull was perfect.

I do think that the necklace (also an opshop find!) kind of got lost with the print of the dress, so I'll need to try a bolder coloured one next time I wear this dress.


Last worn: denim jacket, hexagon bead necklace, white Converse, Louis Vuitton Neverfull. First time I've worn the dress as it was a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: denim jacket worn 30 ways, white Converse and skirt, Louis Vuitton MM Neverfull worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: denim jacket in second trimester, Converse in second trimester, Louis Vuitton MM Neverfull in third trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Kitty denim biker jacket
Necklace: thrifted Eb&Ive turquoise wooden bead multi strand statement necklace
Dress: Kmart strappy tiered sundress in watercolour blue and blush print
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

Since I liked the outfit above so much, I wore the formula again the next week, with another tiered sundress from my collection. I scored this one in the Kmart clearance for just $2, and it's a firm favourite. Surprisingly, I haven't worn this denim moto jacket with it before, it's such an obvious combination. I liked the paler denim with the darker blue of the background of the dress, and I picked my turquoise beaded necklace to add some more lightness too. 

I had a couple errands to run after the school drop off, then worked from home before picking the kids up in the afternoon. Didn't really need the extra space of the Louis Vuitton Neverfull, but I thought the colours went nicely with this outfit so didn't bother changing to another bag.


Last worn: denim moto jacket, turquoise beaded necklace, navy and blush printed sundress, Sketchers, Louis Vuitton Neverfull (above).

Other ways to wear: denim moto jacket and maxi skirt, navy and blush printed sundress layered with a tee, Sketchers and leopard print, Louis Vuitton Neverfull worn 30 ways

Prints, Skinny Jeans and Tees With Louis Vuitton Neverfull

Simple outfits for some warmer days recently. Classic jeans and tee combos with statement flat bead necklaces, printed cover ups, sneakers, and my Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote.

What I wore:

Jacket: The Kindness Kimono 'Dream Catch Me' print
Necklace: adjustable coral flat bead necklace
Tee: Atmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

While we had a cold end to autumn in Brisbane, winter actually brought some warmer weather, so it was time to swap my knits and leather jackets back to lighter cover ups, like this fun colourful printed one. The red in the print it doesn't quite match the coral necklace, but they both add a nice bit of colour to this otherwise dark navy tee and faded black jeans combination.

I see the Louis Vuitton damier azur Neverfull as a neutral really, so didn't mind that mixed print against the already mixed prints in my cover up. This was the perfect outfit for a strangely warm winter day with the school run, working from home, and a quick errand after school.


Last worn: printed cover up, navy tee, faded black skinny jeans, Converse, Louis Vuitton MM Neverfull. First time I've shared the necklace as it was a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: printed cover up and dress, navy tee and maxi skirt, faded black skinny jeans and blazer, Converse and shorts, Louis Vuitton MM Neverfull worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester, Louis Vuitton MM Neverfull in third trimester.

30 Ways to Wear: Louis Vuitton Neverfull

---

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted no label tropical print tassel cover up
Necklace:  thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in marigold
Jeans: Dannii Minogue denim high waist skinny jean in ecru
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

This was a much more colourful outfit than the one above! While this fun tropical print cover up is bright and bold enough on its own, something about it just makes me so happy pairing it with other bright colours, like the hot pink tank last time I wore it, and this orange tee this time around. The white jeans were a good way to balance out the bright topper and tee, and went nicely with the Louis Vuitton Neverfull.

Picked the comfortable sneakers for a day with a lot of walking, not just because they matched my flat beaded necklace! We took the kids to the museum in the morning, to see the largest dinosaur ever discovered. After a little stroll through Southbank and the city, we went to an Army open day where the kids got to climb on all the vehicles and enjoy some rides. It was such good weather for it too!


Last worn: tropical print cover up, navy beaded necklace, orange tee, white skinny jeans, Sketchers, Louis Vuitton damier Neverfull (above).

Other ways to wear: tropical print cover up and skirt, orange tee and culottes, white skinny jeans and sequins, Sketchers and shorts, Louis Vuitton damier Neverfull worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton damier Neverfull at 38 weeks.
