Pink Kmart Dresses, Blue Scarves and Denim Jackets With Chloe Marcie Bag | Weekday Wear Link Up

Sharing another great outfit formula! Pretty pink Kmart dresses, blue scarves, denim jackets, sneakers and my awesome neutral Chloe Marcie bag.


What I wore:

kmart linen dress with white denim jacket navy heart print scarf sneakers chloe marcie bag | awayfromtheblue

Chloe Marcie medium shoulder bag in nut | awayfromtheblue


JacketCotton On girlfriend denim jacket in whitehaven
ScarfStella McCartney heart print scarf
Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings
Dress: thrifted Kmart short sleeve godet skirt linen blend dress in fuchsia
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe Marcie medium shoulder bag in nut


Why I wore it:

This was a bit of a busy day! While it was cold I decided to go bare legged as my mum and sister and I had a fun day out of shopping planned. Quickly realised when my son woke up though that he wasn't quite right, so it was a quick scrabble to find him a doctor and get him some medicine. Luckily there was a local doctor open with availability, and we could leave him to rest at home with hubby and his brother while we went out to shop. I didn't have anything planned to buy, was just looking forward to catching up with my mum and sister and having lunch, but it turned into a really productive shopping day and I started buying a few Christmas presents. We took much longer at the shops than expected, as we hadn't been planning to buy a lot, but it was nice having that time together, especially after the stressful morning. Some of the shops were very warm, so I was glad I'd gone bare legged, and I even took my denim jacket off not long after arriving at the shopping centre. The heart print scarf kept me cosy enough over the linen dress.

It's not the first time I've layered this Kmart linen blend dress up for winter, and once again I stuck to that familiar outfit formula like I'd worn before, with the scarf and denim jacket. Instead of ankle boots like I wore previously, I went with my Adidas Superstar sneakers, such a comfortable shoe for all the walking we did.


Last worn: white denim jacket, heart studs, heart print scarf, pink linen dress, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Chloe Marcie bag.

Other ways to wearwhite denim jacket and maxi skirt, heart print scarf and stripes, pink linen dress and kimono, Adidas Superstar sneakers and jeans, Chloe Marcie bag and blazer.

What I wore:

Earrings: Kmart pink resin teardrop statement earrings
Jacket: Jeanswest Kitty denim biker jacket
ScarfLouis Vuitton monogram shawl in bleu
Dress: Kmart Whsdch Red short sleeved tiered midi dress
ShoesAdidas Stan Smith sneakers in white and navy
BagChloe Marcie medium shoulder bag in nut


Why I wore it:

This was another fun day! I'm even wearing a couple of pieces that my mum bought for me on our day out shopping above. I just had to wear my new little resin earrings right away, I thought they went nicely with the coral pink Kmart tiered dress, even though they are a little hard to see because of my hair. I already have this tiered Kmart midi dress in fuchsia pink and in orange, but I loved this coral colour! As it was on sale Mum offered to get it for me along with the pink resin earrings, and another cute purple pair too.

The sneakers are a Kmart pair too, ones I hadn't worn in a while so they were due another wearing!

I layered the dress up a bit for a cold morning. I had the school run, a vet appointment for Cooper, and then in the afternoon I took advantage of having the day off to spend a couple hours at school watching the kids sports event. They did really well, very proud of them! It was such a warm day that I ended up taking the denim jacket off, although when we spent some time at the playground in the afternoon with my Mum I had pulled the jacket back on. It got cold quickly, even with this cosy wool blend Louis Vuitton scarf.



Last worn: moto denim jacket, blue Louis Vuitton shawl, Stan Smith sneakers, Chloe Marcie bag (above). First time I've worn the earrings and midi dress as they were a recent gift from my mum.

Other ways to wearmoto denim jacket in double denim outfit, blue Louis Vuitton shawl and denim jacket, Stan Smith sneakers and jeans, Chloe Marcie bag and blue dress.



How You Can Wear It:

Pink and blue are a great combination together - no matter what shade of blue and pink! You can add to a pink dress with a blue denim jacket, or even just a blue scarf to try out the colour combination.

Jeans, Striped Tees and Colourful Cardigans With Chloe Small Paraty Bag

Skinny jeans, stripes, sneakers, and colourful cardigan outfits for winter days. I feel I wear jeans every single day, I've gotten a bit lazy with my winter dressing. At least the colour schemes of these outfits are a little varied!


What I wore:

louis vuitton scarf, navy stripe tee, purple cocon cardigan and skinny jeans sneakers and Chloe paraty bag | awayfromble

Chloe periwinkle small Paraty with purple cardigan | awayfromtheblue


Jacket: Jeanswest Peggie kimono cardigan in purple mulberry marle
ScarfLouis Vuitton monogram shawl in bleu
TeeAtmos&Here navy stripe v-neck tee
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe periwinkle small Paraty


Why I wore it:

I love purple and blue together, although this bright blue Louis Vuitton shawl does steal all the attention away from the cute purple cardi! Despite it being a rainy day it wasn't too cold - so this light cardigan over the navy striped tee was all I needed to stay warm. 

I had the school drop off, an appointment afterwards, and then worked from home until it was time to pick the kids up, and we had a quick shop at Kmart. Thankfully the rain stopped in the afternoon, although it was a little bit of a pain doing the morning drop off in the rain! This scarf is so good at keeping me warm though.

Wore my little Chloe Paraty bag in periwinkle blue, even though it doesn't match the navy stripes of the tee or the bright blue of the scarf, I thought it complimented those shades and the purple cardigan nicely. It also fit a library book for me to read while waiting at my appointment - had such a nice chat with the nurse about the kinds of books we like to read.





What I wore:

thrifted mustard cardigan and navy stripe Coca-Cola logo tee outfit with skinny jeans small chloe paraty bag | awayfromblue

Chloe periwinkle small Paraty with mustard cardigan | awayfromblue


Jacket: thrifted SES Fashions mustard yellow cardigan
Tee: thrifted navy stripe Coca-Cola logo tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
ShoesAdidas Stan Smith sneakers in white and navy
BagChloe periwinkle small Paraty


Why I wore it:

This was a particularly windy day - perhaps a thicker cardigan may have worked better! Maybe even tying my hair back - the wind wasn't kind to it even though I wasn't outside long snapping these pics!

Another quiet day with the school run and working from home. I wanted to wear this mustard cardigan with the navy striped Coca-Cola tee - both were thrift finds from a sadly now closed local opshop. Surprisingly I haven't worn them together before! I felt they were a really good combination and added a lot of lightness to this outfit that would have been a bit neutral otherwise with the white Stan Smith sneakers and the grey skinny jeans.

Again, the Chloe small Paraty bag doesn't match any of the colours in the outfit, but I thought it complimented the mustard nicely.


Last worn: mustard cardigan, Coca-Cola logo tee, grey skinny jeans, Stan Smith sneakers, Chloe small Paraty bag (above).

Other ways to wearmustard cardigan and shorts, Coca-Cola logo tee worn 2 ways, grey skinny jeans worn 30 ways, Stan Smith sneakers in monochrome outfit, Chloe small Paraty bag and tiered dress.


How You Can Wear It:

A cardigan can add warmth and a little extra colour to a simple striped tee and jeans outfit in winter. A bright scarf can add even more colour too!

Printed Maxi Dresses With Colourful Scarves, Denim Jackets and Balenciaga Bags

Layering up some maxi dresses for a windy winter weekend last month where we attended two different birthday parties. Added ankle boots, denim jackets and some big colourful scarves to keep me cosy outdoors in the wind, and my Balenciaga bags for a bit of colour. Wore some statement earrings for the first time in a while too to feel a little more dressed up!

What I wore:

ScarfLouis Vuitton monogram shawl in bleu
TeeAtmos&Here charcoal grey v neck tee
Dress: Kmart Tropicana sleeveless tiered maxi dress
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
BagBalenciaga giant hardware Day bag in 2009 tempete

Why I wore it:

Knowing how windy it was going to be I added a grey tee over this floral maxi dress to keep me a little warmer. It was nice in the sun, but we spent the birthday party in the shade so we felt the worst of the wind and I was grateful I'd added the tee! The denim jacket wasn't as warm as I'd have liked but the big Louis Vuitton shawl is a wool blend and so was perfect for the breeze. The kids had a great time at the party, although there were definitely too much chocolate and lollies consumed 😂 Sign of a successful party though if you eat too much good food! Plenty of cake to go around too, even though the re-introduced COVID restrictions of 10 people gatherings announced the day before meant it was cut in half, to save some for the other guests who were coming in the afternoon!

I wasn't sure if the tempete blue Balenciaga day bag would be too much blue with this outfit, with the light wash of the denim jacket and the cobalt blue of the scarf, but I think all the blues went really nicely with the blue in the floral print of the dress. Even if the dress was picked up quite a lot in the wind and probably not the best choice for the day!

Dress: Jeanswest 'Chantelle' crochet detail blue printed maxi dress
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
BagBalenciaga RH classic city in 2010 sorbet (more affordable preloved)

Why I wore it:

This was a really fun party! Our last one before the 10 people gathering restriction came into place, as we didn't know until after the party that the restriction had just been put in place that morning with immediate effect! The kids had a blast at a playground we hadn't been to before, running around with their friends and again eating lots of party food. It was nice to meet some of the parents of my kids friends I hadn't spoken too before too, as you can't really talk during the school run when you're trying to keep your distance.

With the blue maxi dress, navy statement earrings and indigo denim jacket this felt a bit too monochrome, so I added some pink accessories to brighten it up a bit! It's not the first time I've worn this hot pink scarf and pink Balenciaga sorbet city bag together before, I really like the combination and pink always works so well with blue.

Despite another windy day I was pretty warm as there was plenty of running around after the kids in the playground, and helping the little one with some things he was just a bit too small for. He gave it a good go though. By the end of the party I was wishing I'd picked different shoes! These ankle boots have the tiniest heel but it was hard work with my injured knee.


How You Can Wear It:

A maxi dress can easily be layered up for a cooler day with ankle boots, a denim jacket and a cosy scarf. For an event like a birthday party you can keep it colourful by picking bright layers, either complimenting the colours in the print of the dress like the first outfit, or a contrasting colour like in the second outfit.

Layering Over Maxi Dresses With Cosy Scarves and Rebecca Minkoff Small Darren Bag

After a little bit of warm weather, the Ekka winds arrived in Brisbane and it started to get chilly again for the end of winter. I decided to add a few extra layers to my maxi dresses to combat the cold winds.

What I wore:

Floral maxi dress with Rebecca Minkoff small darren messenger bag in peony pink | awayfromtheblue

awayfromtheblue Instagram | layering a kmart floral maxi dress with cobalt tee and turquoise scarf pastel pink rebecca minkoff darren bag ankle boots winter

Scarf: Cotton On turquoise pashmina
Tee: thrifted cobalt blue long sleeve tee
Dress: Kmart Tropicana sleeveless tiered maxi dress
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
BagRebecca Minkoff small Darren messenger bag in peony (more affordable preowned!)

Why I wore it:

This was a big day for my eldest boy, as we all gathered to watch him compete for the first time. It was nice restrictions were relaxed so they were able to host a big sporting event, his first one after the restrictions had prevented any this year.

Wanted to be bright and colourful as I sat on the sidelines to support him, and so I wore my fave floral maxi dress, this tiered coral one from Kmart. Added the blue long sleeved tee over the top as I thought it looked better than underneath, and as it was still a little chilly I wore my cosy turquoise pashmina. I thought it matched nicely with the print on the dress and I loved how it popped with the blue tee.

The pastel pink Rebecca Minkoff small Darren messenger bag was picked as it was big enough for my camera and because I hadn't worn it with this coral dress before. It was a nice combo, I'm pleased I gave it a try!

Knit: white vintage knit jumper from my mum's wardrobe
Dress: Jeanswest 'Chantelle' crochet detail blue printed maxi dress
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
BagRebecca Minkoff small Darren messenger bag in peony (more affordable preowned!)

Why I wore it:

I didn't like this outfit as much, I felt a little overdressed in this, but also under-dressed for the cold! Unlike the first outfit this was a fairly normal day with the school run and a regular sports class in the evening. By the evening though I was so cold I'd added a coat over this - it was a really chilly day!

Even with the white jumper over this blue printed maxi dress it felt a little too dressed up for such a quiet day, especially as I spent as little time outside in the wind as possible and most of it at home 😂

I did like the colour combo here with the blush pink Darren messenger bag against the blue and white, and I think the white knit broke up the navy printed maxi dress enough that the cobalt Louis Vuitton shawl worked well with it. Just not one of my favourite outfits.


How You Can Wear It:

A maxi dress can work in cooler weather with some extra layers. Try adding a knit or long sleeve tee over the top, and don't forget a big cosy blanket scarf!

Maxi Dresses Layered For Winter With Louis Vuitton Damier Azur Neverfull

Taking advantage of some warmer winter days to wear my maxi dresses again with a few extra layers. I love Brisbane's warmer winter days when it's a mild 24 degrees Celsius in the middle of the day, but not so much the cold 11-12 degrees overnight and early morning 😂 Both of these outfits felt a little dressed up for some fun events I'd been looking forward to for a while!

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Kitty denim biker jacket
ScarfLouis Vuitton monogram shawl in bleu
Dress: black Jeanswest halterneck maxi dress
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs silver tuxedo flats
BagLouis Vuitton MM damier azur neverfull

Why I wore it:

So excited for this day! I picked my simplest maxi dress, this plain thrifted black one, and we all kinda of matched in our outfits as we had our family photo shoot. We were supposed to have it at the start of the year but then the restrictions hit and it had to be rescheduled. 

Of course this being a halter neck maxi dress it was a little too cold to wear on its own so I added the denim jacket. The blue Louis Vuitton shawl was a bit too warm in the heat of the day but I was thankful for it in the shade and in the colder evening as we had a late afternoon photo session.

Carried my Louis Vuitton damier azur neverfull bag to fit a few extra things in - water bottles and some snacks for the kids to keep their energy levels up. Not that they needed any of that after having a glass of complimentary fruit juice when we arrived 😂 Cooper appreciated the doggy snacks we brought though!

It was so fun to dress up and wear makeup again!

Dress: Kmart Tropicana sleeveless tiered maxi dress

BagLouis Vuitton MM damier azur neverfull

Why I wore it:

This outfit was a little more dressed down than the one above, not as much makeup for starters!  Still felt formal enough for a kid's birthday party.  It was our first birthday party after restrictions and it was so good seeing the boys playing with all their friends. This white knit from my mum's wardrobe was actually pretty warm and standing in the back yard in the sun watching the kids on the trampoline I was glad it didn't have full length sleeves. Was just perfect again when it cooled off in the afternoon. And I surprisingly managed to keep the white jumper clean all day!

Added a couple extra accessories with the statement earrings and tassel necklace. The Louis Vuitton damier azur neverfull bag was perfect for taking everything for myself and the boys without worrying about carrying a baby bag too.


Oh and if you've been following along, I completed no buy July again this year, so that's now 6 years I've been avoiding fashion spending in July! It can be tricky with all the sales in that month, but honestly this year we aren't going out much and I'm finding I'm uninspired to shop!



How You Can Wear It:

A maxi dress can work well on a warmer winter day with the addition of cosy layers. A knit jumper, scarf, or denim jacket can keep you warm and comfortable, and can easily be removed if the day heats up.

Monochrome Stripe Tank and Skinny Jeans Outfits With Bright Accessories

Adding some colour to neutral outfits with bright accessories: my magenta Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag and blue and purple scarves. I really liked both of these outfits, I need to wear things like this more often! I've been trying to introduce more colour to my outfits lately but there's something so simple about neutral outfits and adding pops of colours with bright accessories.

BagRebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta 

Why I wore it:

I really liked this outfit! Didn't exactly keep me as warm as I'd hoped in the morning though, the three-quarter length sleeves on the cardigan were a bit chilly for the school drop off. Of course by the school pick up in the afternoon I was feeling like the cardigan and scarf were a bit too warm together!

This Louis Vuitton monogram shawl is so cosy and warm. I really like the pop of colour it gives to the striped tank, and pink and blue being a go-to favourite colour of mine I liked the magenta Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag with this cobalt blue too.

Was a quiet day at home most of the time, aside from the school pickup and drop off and grabbing another loaf of bread on the way home.

BagRebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta 

Why I wore it:

Unlike the outfit above, this outfit felt really warm, all day! I felt a bit overdressed in this thick knitted cardigan as we walked around the shopping centre in the morning after school drop off. We had to try find a pair of shoes for my youngest boy, but thankfully he liked the first pair we tried on. We went to a proper kids shoe store which is not normally where I'd buy the kids shoes, as they ruin them quite quickly, but they had a sale on so it wasn't too bad. We'd had no luck at Kmart, Target or Big W as they are all suffering from low stock levels because of the virus impacts to imports. Although I think the Target stocking issues may partly be due to them closing down so many stores as well? (Our Aussie brands are different from the US ones and so our Kmarts are taking over closing Target stores). Just gives me more reasons to stay home though - not a lot to browse through in the shops!

This was a very dark outfit with the black tank and cardigan, and the grey jeans. I think that the purple scarf and the magenta bag were just the right touches of colour with it, and purple and pink is another colour combination I really enjoy.



How You Can Wear It:

Bright bags and scarves add the perfect touch of colour to a neutral layered winter outfit. For a little extra pop you can pick two different colours for your accessories like I have here.

Striped Tops, Skinny Jeans, Scarves and Rebecca Minkoff MAB

A brief period of warmer weather near the end of winter last month had me ditching some of the layers and going without a jacket or cardigan. Still with longer sleeves though! These striped 3/4 length sleeve tops were overdue a wear.

A stripes and denim outfit combination is always a winner, and great for stay at home mum days.

What I wore:

DressAtmos&Here 3/4 sleeve stripe tee in berry white
JeansJeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs suede flats in red
BagRebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey

Why I wore it:

This top has been badly overlooked all winter - it's a favourite for me, it's nice and thick and so cosy on the cooler days. I decided to let the top be the star and keep everything else neutral, with the grey skinny jeans, grey Rebecca Minkoff MAB bag and my fun grey feather embroidered scarf.

I couldn't decide what shoes to wear with this until I remembered my little red suede ballet flats. I love these shoes but so rarely wear them as I tend to go for neutral shoes instead. Even though the red of the shoes is a different shade from the burgundy stripes on the tee, I thought it was a fun combination and really enjoyed wearing this! Simple outfit for a day with the boys, running a few errands and visiting the library and playground.


Last worn: burgundy stripe tee, feather embroidered scarf, grey skinny jeans, red suede flats, Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag.

TopJeanswest 'Marina' stripe henley
Jeans: thrifted ASOS petite green skinny jeans
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs silver tuxedo flats
BagRebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey

Why I wore it:

Wore this for a busy morning! Swimming lessons, attending the Lion King Ooshies swap day and then an appointment, all before lunch, phew! Wanted something simple so went with this classic striped Henley and my green skinny jeans. I like navy with these green jeans, and the stripes go so well with it. Added in a bolder bright blue with the cosy cobalt Louis Vuitton shawl too, which helped keep me warm in the cooler morning before the temperatures heated up.

With the bright scarf and jeans together, I went with a neutral bag and shoes. These silver ballet flats go with everything and the Rebecca Minkoff MAB bag in grey is a wardrobe staple, which was big enough to fit my things in, some things for the boys and of course our Lion King toys for the swap day.

The swap day was a little hectic, but I thought it would be fun for the boys to go to swap some of the extra toys they had after they completed their collection. They swapped with others to pick some new toys for them to play with and to let the others complete their collections. I was proud of how they behaved and shared and swapped. They came home and immediately started playing 'swap day' with the toys they had so I know they enjoyed the experience!

Striped 3/4 Length Tops Under $50:




How You Can Wear It:

A striped top with longer sleeves is great for days when you don't need or want an extra jacket or cardigan over the top. You can keep it simple and wear a bright striped top with neutral jeans, or add more colour with some bright jeans instead. Either way, you can't go wrong with a classic stripes and jeans combo!
