Yellow Tees and Distressed Denim Skirts

Wearing two relatively new denim skirt additions to my wardrobe, with some printed cover ups and yellow tees.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Kensley summer tie-dye kimono
Earrings: Target solid silver hoops
Necklace: mixed metal hammered pendant necklace
Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in elfin yellow
Skirt: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren

Why I wore it:

Wearing a couple of new Christmas pieces in this outfit! The yellow tee and the navy tie dye cover up are wardrobe oldies, as is the mixed metal necklace, navy Havaianas and little olive Rebecca Minkoff Darren mini messenger bag. The silver hoop earrings are a Christmas gift, as was the green distressed denim skirt. It was from our annual pre-Christmas shopping trips, a score from the opshop my sister got me. I really like the pale green worn with the pale yellow tee.

The distressed denim skirt and tee outfit was nice for a calm day after Christmas, with a trip to the library and then lunch before heading home. Despite having got a whole bunch of books for Christmas, the kids love the regular library trips to stock up on more books. This was a really comfortable outfit and I enjoyed wearing it, great first wear for this skirt.


Last worn: navy tie dye duster, yellow tee, mixed metal necklace, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren messenger bag. First time I've worn the hoop earrings and the green denim skirt as they are Christmas gifts.

Other ways to wear: navy tie dye duster, yellow tee and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren messenger bag and shorts.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted digital print no label kimono
Earrings: gold Christmas present bow hoops
Necklace: Kmart navy and gold beaded tassel necklace
Tee: Big W mustard v-neck tee
Skirt: Salvos Nobody Denim grey distressed denim skirt
Shoes: thrifted Les Tropeziennes Par M.Belarbi leopard print and gold leather sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus Vinnies blue and natural wooden bead bracelet stack
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Again, repeating the outfit formula from that first outfit as I enjoyed it so much, and repeating it with similar pieces. A more of a mustard yellow tee, with a grey distressed denim skirt this time, and another printed cover up. I liked the mustard tee with the matching mustard in the print of this cover up, it's a fun one to wear, and was an opshop find. The grey Nobody Denim skirt was an opshop find also, NWT from Salvos. Pretty thrilled with this find.

It was a nice comfortable outfit for a little running around, with a couple of errands to run and a playdate to drop my son off at. Tried to organise a few playdates for him over the school holidays. The only downside of this outfit was that the tassel fell off my necklace. I like to play with it a lot when I wear this, but it wasn't until the end of the day that I grabbed my necklace to find the tassel had fallen off somewhere. I couldn't find it in the house or car sadly.


Last worn: bow earrings, digital print cover up, mustard tee, navy necklace, wooden bracelet stack, grey denim skirt, leopard print sandals, Mimco crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: digital print cover up and dress, mustard tee and shorts, grey denim skirt and graphic tee, leopard print sandals and maxi skirt, Mimco crossbody bag and blazer.

Blazers, Midi Skirts and Mimco Bags

Breaking out the blazers and midi skirts for slightly cooler office days in Brisbane, just before Christmas.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Jeanswest cobalt blue blazer
Earrings: candy cane hoop
Necklace: rose gold and turquoise beaded necklace
Tee: grey marle pocket tee
Skirt: Kmart breeze green broderie anglaise midi skirt
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

I love wearing this green broderie midi skirt in December, it feels like it's been on frequent repeat lately! I really liked the bright green with the cobalt blazer, it's such a nice mix of green and blue. Added the neutral grey marle tee with the bold colours, and plain white Converse and black Mimco crossbody bag for more neutrals. I wasn't sure on a necklace for this outfit so I went with the turquoise one as a mix of blue and green, but looking at the photos after I do think the navy beaded necklace I also considered may have been better.

It was a quite relaxed day in the office as we had a colleague's family come visit us for a bit in a gap between meetings which was lovely.


Last worn: cobalt blazer, turquoise beaded necklace, grey marle tee, green broderie skirt, white Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: cobalt blazer and dress, grey marle tee and mini skirt, green broderie skirt in Christmas outfit, white Converse and denim, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and jeans.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Zara black blazer
Earrings: candy cane hoop earrings
Necklace: thrifted blue tone flat bead statement necklace
Tank: Kmart teal tank
Skirt: thrifted ruffle hem leopard print midi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal

Why I wore it:

This was a slightly wetter day, still as cool as the one above though so a blazer was a good layer to add to this outfit. I needed the blazer over the singlet in the office as well to cover up my shoulders in this tank for meetings, but it was appreciated on the cooler morning commute as well.

Just like in the outfit above, I liked the marle top with the midi skirt. This leopard print one is an opshop fave. The blazer is an opshop find also, as is the beaded statement necklace. With the black blazer matching the black Converse, and the black in the leopard print of the skirt, this was a nice matchy-matchy outfit. I'd thought that the teal marle singlet would be a good match with the Mimco cocoon bag, but decided to wear them anyway when I put the bag on and realised it wasn't as close a match with the teal tank as I'd have liked. I still thought they looked good together.

Last worn: candy cane earrings, black blazer, beaded necklace, teal marle singlet, leopard print midi skirt, black Converse, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag.

Other ways to wear: black blazer and jeans, teal marle singlet and dress, leopard print midi skirt and red, black Converse and jeans, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag and dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: black blazer in third trimester, Converse in second trimester.

Green And Leopard Print Skirt Outfits With Mimco Bags

I like to repeat outfit formulas when I've enjoyed wearing them. Green and leopard is a combination I tried and liked so much I had to wear it twice! In both of these outfits I've accessorised with Mimco bags too.

What I wore:

Earrings: Avocado Santa hat earrings
Necklace: thrifted Belle Folie multi colour tassel necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton On The one crew tee in green
Skirt: Target animal print ruffle hem mini skirt
Shoes: thrifted Seed Heritage tan braided sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal

Why I wore it:

We had a video call this afternoon while I was working from home that was a themed event so I knew this outfit would be perfect for it! Surprisingly I haven't tried wearing green with this leopard print skirt before, it's such a nice combination! I added a little more colour with the fun tassel necklace, but went a little matchy-matchy with the green avocado Santa hat earrings matching the green of the tee, even though they are slightly different shades.

I picked the braided sandals to match the brown in the print of the skirt too, and although the teal Mimco Cocoon bag doesn't match anything in the outfit, I really liked it against the green tee. This bag has been getting a lot of love recently since I scored it on eBay.


Last worn: avocado earrings, green tee, tassel necklace, leopard print skirt, braided sandals, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag.

Other ways to wear: green tee and midi skirt, leopard print skirt and leather jacket, braided sandals and dress, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag and pencil skirt.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted no label leopard print cover up with waist tie
Earrings: candy cane hoop earrings
Necklace: thrifted mint silicone statement necklace
Tank: Jeanswest Jenni basic singlet in Emerald green
Skirt: thrifted Target black stretch denim skirt
Shoes: thrifted Anko Kmart black strappy sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Another day with the school run and working from home, and another green and leopard print outfit. This time I wore a leopard print cover up over a green tank and black denim skirt. I felt even when working from home that the green tank was a bit casual for having my video on in some meetings, the leopard print cover up dressed it up a little bit more, and covered up my shoulders for physical sunblock on the school run too.

With the black denim skirt, the black strappy sandals and the black Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag seemed like obvious accessories. I added a little more green to this outfit too with the mint beads in the silicone necklace.


Last worn: leopard cover up, silicone necklace, green tank, black denim skirt, strappy sandals, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag. First time I've worn the earrings, a Christmas gift last year.

Other ways to wear: leopard cover up and shorts, green tank and jeans, black denim skirt with orange, strappy sandals and shorts, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and blazer.

Perfect for pregnancy: green tank at 39 weeks.

Casual Christmas Red & Green Maxi Skirt Outfits

I had a lot of fun wearing these outfits! Red and green skirts with printed tees for some Christmas events before the big day. Hope you are having a wonderful time celebrating Christmas with your loved ones.

What I wore:

Earrings: Kmart glitter gingerbread man earrings
Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Tee: Merry Christmas deer antler tee
Skirt: thrifted NWT Beginning Boutique Sahara red-orange maxi skirt
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus thrifted cream resin bangle duo set and Polka Luka resin bangles in red and teal
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Had to break out this Christmas tee again that mum made me, for our annual family Christmas trip to the Movie World White Christmas evening event. This year we surprised the boys by going down earlier in the day, before the evening event started, so we had some extra time at the theme park.

I thought the cotton tiered maxi skirt would keep me cool and comfortable, as it was such a humid day. We kept cool by drinking lots of water, and you got a good breeze on the rollercoasters!

To make my outfit a little more Christmas-like I added the resin bangle sets, and just wore my little black Mimco bag for my camera and essentials. I carried a big reusable tote bag for our water bottles, which were refilled frequently.

The only thing I regretted about this outfit was the glitter gingerbread earrings. Perfectly on-theme for the evening's event, but not the best choice when they were flying around in my face on all the rollercoasters, ha!


Last worn: gingerbread earrings, Tiffany necklace, cream resin bracelet stack, red and green resin bracelets, reindeer tee, tiered maxi skirt, white leather Converse, Mimco crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: reindeer tee and shorts, tiered maxi skirt in winter, white leather Converse, Mimco crossbody bag and blazer.

What I wore:

Earrings: DIY green clay Christmas tree earrings
Tee: Jeanswest Kaylin star foil grey tee
Skirt: Kmart breeze green broderie anglaise midi skirt
Shoes: Novo Tawny rose gold sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag in cherry red

Why I wore it:

I wasn't too sure this outfit would work but I was eager to give it a try! I really like this green broderie skirt around Christmas time, although it is something I wear other times of the year too, it gets a work out in December! Last time I wore this skirt with a printed top I wasn't too happy with the final result, but I liked the subtle gold foil star print on this tee and thought it wasn't too busy with the broderie fabric of the skirt, so I was happy to wear it.

We had a couple of errands to run in the morning, and then in the afternoon and evening we went to the local carol service. I added a little extra festive colour with the red Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag, and I wore my clay Christmas tree earrings even though they didn't match the green of the skirt exactly. Thankfully the storm held off so we got to enjoy the carols and the closing fireworks before the rain arrived on our drive home.


Last worn: Christmas tree earrings, star foil print tee, broderie skirt, rose gold sandals, Rebecca Minkoff studded saddle bag.

Other ways to wear: star foil print tee with black, broderie skirt and blazer, rose gold sandals and shorts, Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag worn 30 ways.

Orange Maxi Skirts, White Tees and Mimco Black Crossbody Bag

Another easy outfit formula repeated twice. Two orange maxi skirt outfits with white tees and my little black Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted burgundy and cream beaded statement necklace
Tee: Atmos & Here white essential v-neck tee
Skirt: thrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Felt like it had been a while since I'd last worn this orange maxi skirt, so got it out again to wear to church. I liked the simple white tee with it, but felt it needed a little more and this statement beaded necklace was perfect. The burgundy and natural wood beads work so well with the ochre maxi skirt and look good against the plain white tee. I added simple sandals as it was a hot day, and my little black Mimco crossbody bag.


Last worn: white v-neck tee, statement beaded necklace, ochre maxi skirt, sandals, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: white v-neck tee and denim skirt, ochre maxi skirt and knit, sandals and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and jeans.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted multi strand multi colour disc bead necklace with tassels
Tee: Cotton On The One Deep V tee in marle nep white body black
Skirt: thrifted NWT Beginning Boutique Sahara red-orange maxi skirt
Shoes: Les Tropeziennes Par M.Belarbi leopard print and gold leather sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Since I liked the outfit above so much, I recreated it again following the same outfit formula, with this bright coral maxi skirt. It's a beautiful bright redish-orange in person and I love how colourful it is. It was NWT at the opshop for just $7 too, such a bargain! I wore my textured white tee with it to add a little more detail, but still added a statement necklace on top. This multi strand tassel one is nice and colourful.

Wore another pair of sandals as well. These ones, like the skirt and necklace, were an opshop find too. Good outfit for a day of working from home, doing the school run, and running a couple of errands. I didn't need to carry more than the essentials, so I wore my Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag again.


Last worn: white tee, statement necklace, colourful maxi skirt, leopard print sandals, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag (above).

Other ways to wear: white tee and shorts, colourful maxi skirt and leather jacket, leopard print sandals and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and blazer.

Kmart Linen Shorts, Navy Tees and Printed Cover Ups

Pulled out my linen shorts for spring weekend days. Both these outfits feature the Kmart linen blend shorts I was lucky enough to stumble across in the opshop in two different colours, as well as different shades of blue and pink.

What I wore:

Jacket: The Kindness Collective 'Kaleidoscope Dreams' printed kimono
Necklace: Roie Designs coral beaded tassel necklace
Tee: Atmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Shorts: thrifted Kmart fuchsia linen blend shorts
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote in plum

Why I wore it:

Blue, pink and purple is a trio I love to wear and I liked the different shades of it in this outfit, with the fuchsia shorts, navy tee and the navy and purple printed cover up with the plum purple mini MAB tote bag.

I picked this to wear for a warm yet windy day at the beachfront with my friend. We hadn't caught up in a while so it was good to take advantage of the weather and let the kids play in the water. The wading pool is nice shallow water and the boys spent most of their time there so I wore the shorts as I could stand in the pool with them if needed. And I like this navy tee with pink. The purple printed cover up was a must have for some extra sun protection, and then I added more purple with the plum mini MAB tote bag. While I had the big beach bag with towels, water bottles and beach toys, the mini MAB let me keep my phone and essentials close by as I wasn't swimming.


Last worn: purple printed cover up, beaded necklace, navy tee, fuchsia linen shorts, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff plum purple MAB.

Other ways to wear: purple printed cover up and denim, navy tee worn 30 ways, fuchsia linen shorts and stripes, Rebecca Minkoff plum purple mini MAB tote bag worn 30 ways..

Perfect for pregnancy: Rebecca Minkoff plum purple mini MAB tote bag in third trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Kmart blue and pink palm print cover up
Necklace: thrifted blue tone flat bead statement necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Sophie navy v-neck tee
Shorts: thrifted Kmart turquoise linen shorts
Shoes: thrifted Seed Heritage tan braided sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Another navy tee and linen shorts outfit, with this turquoise pair. I still added some pink to this outfit with the fun tropical palm print cover up. Once again I wore it for a little extra sun protection, as we had a picnic down the coast with family. It was another really nice warm day so the kids had a blast playing in the water as I sat around enjoying the good food and conversation while keeping an eye on them.

As I didn't need to carry much and I had all the bright colours in my outfit with the pink and turquoise already, I kept the bag simple and wore my little black Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.


Last worn: palm print cover up, beaded necklace, navy tee, turquoise shorts, braided sandals, Mimco crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: palm print cover up and skirt, navy tee and jeans, turquoise shorts and graphic tee, braided sandals and dress, Mimco crossbody bag and maxi skirt.

Skinny jeans, Black Tops and Blazers With Mimco Mim-mazing Crossbody Bag

Two colourful blazer outfits I wore with black tops, black bags, and jeans for office days recently.

What I wore:

Jacket: Glassons orange jersey blazer
Necklace: thrifted bronze foil statement necklace
Tank: Kmart linen blend textured black tank
Jeans: Jeanswest Harper skinny pant in Russet
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

I really liked the colours in this outfit! With the black linen blend tank and the orange blazer this outfit it might have looked a little Halloween-ish. But the burgundy jeans break that association beautifully I thought. Even though it's spring here in Brisbane I really liked the autumn colours in this outfit and I'm going to have to wear red with this orange blazer more often!

Kept the accessories simple with my little black Mimco crossbody bag, Adidas Superstar sneakers and the foil necklace. Blazer and jeans makes for a great outfit for a day working in the office, and the bright colours in this really made me smile.


Last worn: orange blazer, foil necklace, linen blend tank, burgundy jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: orange blazer and skirt, linen blend tank and green, burgundy jeans and graphic tee, Adidas Superstar sneakers and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and maxi skirt.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Jeanswest cobalt blue blazer
Necklace: Ruby Olive Art series long striped pod necklace
Tank: lace bib black swing tank from mum's wardrobe
Jeans: Dannii Minogue denim high waist skinny jean in ecru
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus black beaded bracelet stack and Roie Designs labradorite bracelets and pearl bracelets
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Another bright blazer. This blue one I thrifted a while back is such a fun pop of colour against black. To let the blazer be the statement piece in my outfit I kept the rest black and white, with this black lace tank, the white skinny jeans and white Converse. Again I wore the little black Mimco crossbody bag. I felt like I could still add a little extra colour in this outfit though, so went with this fun multi coloured statement piece.

I felt comfortable in this outfit. The bright blazer was professional but still fun as I had a massive presentation to give in the office. It went well, I got good feedback. And all the special pieces in this outfit (necklace from my bestie, my mum's tank and bracelets from my friend) helped give me a bit of a confidence boost for the presentation too.


Last worn: blue blazer, beaded necklace, lace tank, white jeans, white Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag (above).

Other ways to wear: blue blazer and skirt, lace tank and leopard print, white jeans and cardigan, white Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and maxi skirt .

Green and Black Jeans and Tee Outfits With Mimco Mim-Mazing Crossbody Bag

Two jeans and tee outfits I wore recently, both with green and black and accessorised with my little MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag that's become a staple lately.

What I wore:

Jacket: Cotton On black knit wrap cardigan
Scarf: Stella McCartney heart print scarf
Earring: thrifted Colette gold metal flower stud statement earrings
Tee: thrifted Cotton On The one crew tee in green
Jeans: thrifted Cotton On The High Rise Skinny Jean black coated denim
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Wore this for a cold weekend morning at the local markets, selling a few more things from my wardrobe. I picked this thick black cardigan to wear as well as the big navy heart print blanket scarf so I'd be cosy as it was quite windy. Sadly not a lot of people at the markets because of the cold weather, but made a few sales and covered the cost of the stall which is always good.

I was nice and warm and comfortable too, although I did end up taking the big scarf off when I ran a couple of errands after the markets as it had warmed up nicely.

Last worn: black belted cardigan, green tee, statement earrings, Stella McCartney heart print scarf, coated denim jeans, black Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear:  black belted cardigan and dress, green tee and skirt, Stella McCartney heart print scarf and stripes, coated denim jeans and jumper, black Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and maxi skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: black belted cardigan and hidden baby bump, Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Necklace: thrifted mint silicone statement necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton on grey tunic tee
Jeans: thrifted ASOS petite green skinny jeans
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Even though this outfit has green and black like the outfit above, this felt much more colourful with the brighter green jeans. Surprisingly I haven't worn these jeans with the black and white knitted poncho before which is a surprise as every colour goes with black and white! Added the grey tee to balance out the bright jeans, and also as it was a good backdrop to show off this recently thrifted necklace. Didn't need a scarf for this as I was able to wrap myself up in this knit to stay warm - it really is like a big blanket!

Perfect outfit for working from home, the school run, and a quick errand after school pick up.


Last worn: Rebecca Minkoff knitted ruana, grey tunic tee, green jeans, white Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag (above). First time I've worn the necklace as it's a recent opshop find.

Other ways to wear: Rebecca Minkoff knitted ruana and white jeans, grey tunic tee and sequins, green jeans worn 30 ways, white Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and leopard print.

Printed Tanks, Black Jeans and Leather Jackets

Adding cosy winter layers and bright bursts of blue to two black jeans outfits I wore to the office recently. Layering was definitely needed as each of these printed tops are sleeveless tanks!

What I wore:

Jacket: Wittner 'Santa Fe' cobalt blue leather jacket
Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Singlet: Kmart navy ribbed tank

Tank: River Island floral print sleeveless shirt
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag in cherry red

Why I wore it:

I felt that this pretty floral print tank was overdue a wear, it's been so long since I last wore it! Had decided to get it out again and layer a navy tank underneath to help keep me warm for an in-office day. At the last minute I decided to swap out the black leather jacket I planned to wear for this cobalt one. It's a firm favourite I've already hit 30 wears on that always gets me compliments and this day was no exception.

With the cobalt leather jacket against the white floral print tank and the black jeans and white Converse, I wanted to add a little extra colour so I went with this red saddle bag. Doesn't match the deep dark red flowers on the button up tank, but I did like how it brightened this outfit worn with the cobalt jacket.

Even though I layered up under the tank and this is a thick and cosy jacket, it was a very chilly commute to the office and I did wish I'd added a scarf to this outfit!


Last worn: cobalt leather jacket, Tiffany necklace, navy tank, floral button up tank, faded black Skinny jeans, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff studded saddle bag.

Other ways to wear: cobalt leather jacket worn 30 ways, navy tank and shorts, floral button up tank and skirt, faded black Skinny jeans and cardigan, white Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff studded saddle bag worn 30 ways.

What I wore:

Jacket: Witchery black belted moto leather jacket
Scarf: Louis Vuitton monogram shawl in bleu
Tank: Jeanswest Florence print long line tank
Jeans: Nobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Unlike the outfit above, this one was a bit more neutral, with the brown printed tank, and then matching black leather jacket, black Nobody Denim skinny jeans and black Converse. I wore a black bag with this too, my little Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody. 

I felt this big Louis Vuitton cobalt shawl made up for all the other neutrals in the outfit though - it's such a great pop of colour, and a very cosy scarf! Much like the cobalt leather jacket above, this blue scarf also gets a lot of compliments, it's such a great colour to wear. Kept me nice and warm on the early commute to the office. 

Last worn: black leather jacket, brown printed tank, Louis Vuitton shawl, Nobody Denim jeans, black Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: black leather jacket and dress, brown printed tank and skirt, Louis Vuitton shawl and dress, Nobody Denim jeans and blazer, black Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and maxi skirt.
