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
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
Bag: Polene 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 wear: graphic 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.

Jeans: thrifted Cotton On The High Rise Skinny Jean black coated denim

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.

This was a nice comfortable outfit for a day with a lot of walking and rides, we had such a fun time.

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
Tee: Cle The Label Charlotte tee in ombre rose
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
Bag: MIMCO 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 earrings, ombre 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.

Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted 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.

Last worn: leopard print cocoon cardigan, neutral beaded necklace, pink tee, black skinny jeans, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag.

Other ways to wear: leopard print cardigan and skirt, pink tee and skirt, black skinny jeans and blazer, black Converse and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag and dress.

Green Jeans, Striped Tees And Cocoon Cardigans

On some warmer winter days recently I just needed these light cocoon cardigans over my jeans and striped tee outfits.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Dotti black cocoon cape cardigan
Necklace: mixed metal hammered pendant necklace
Tee: Cotton On "The One" fitted v tee in Cole stripe white moonlight
Jeans: Valleygirl teal skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB Camera Bag in almond

Why I wore it:

This was a busy day! I had a few errands to run and it was quite a sunny morning, so I just added this lightweight cocoon cardigan. The cardigan was an opshop find, one I'm always glad I picked up. I was hoping for good opshopping luck as I had a few bags of donations to drop off that morning. Of course I walked away with a few opshop scores for myself too after dropping things off and having 'just a little browse'.

I like the simplicity of this outfit - the teal jeans are a good pair with the navy and white striped tee, and the white Converse was a little bit of matchy-matchy with that. Nothing else matched, with the navy stripes in the tee and the black knit cardigan and tan Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag, but I liked how all the neutrals looked together.


Last worn: black cocoon cardigan, navy and white striped tee, mixed metal necklace, teal jeans, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag.

Other ways to wear: black cocoon cardigan and pink jeans, navy and white striped tee and shorts, teal jeans and blouse, white Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag and skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Ripe longline grey cardigan
Necklace: thrifted neutral silicone and wood bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Mossimo black and white striped v-neck tee (new purchase)
Jeans: Jeanswest Vicki skinny pant in moss green
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

I don't normally wear a lot of neutral outfits, but here's a second neutral outfit in a row, with a black and white striped tee and olive jeans with the black Converse and the grey duster cocoon cardigan. The cardigan and the striped tee are both opshop finds.

Although I usually like adding a little extra colour to my outfits with accessories I decided to stick with the neutrals with this one. The black Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag goes with everything and I really liked the neutral beaded necklace against the black stripe tee.

As you can see from my post of the 30 ways to wear these olive jeans, I wear them with black a lot, but this is the first time I've worn this particular tee with them as it's a recent opshop find. I really liked the combination, good for another quiet weekend day with a few errands to complete.

Last worn: grey duster cardigan, neutral beaded necklace, olive jeans, black Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag. First time I've worn the tee as it's a recent opshop find.

Other ways to wear: grey duster cardigan and skirt, olive jeans worn 30 ways, black Converse and maxi skirt, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and shorts.

Floral Print Dresses With Navy Suede Moto Jacket and Mimco Mim-Mazing Crossbody Bag

Two outfits with floral print dresses, Converse, a navy suede moto jacket and Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag for some different days recently.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest navy suede moto zip jacket
Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings
Necklace: personalised gold children's names charm necklace
Dress: Salty Crush Avery midi dress in charis blue relaxed button down tiered dress with balloon sleeves
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

I really like this navy suede moto jacket paired with this navy and white floral print tiered dress. I wanted to be dressed up but not too cold for a day off where I attended an award ceremony for a family member. I thought a denim jacket or leather jacket would be too casual, this jacket seemed perfect for the formal event. I did go with casual Converse though as I had to drive a bit and while boots would have looked more formal, I had to consider my knee with all that driving.

I didn't need to carry much, just the essentials, so I went with this little black Mimco Mim-mazing crossbody bag. It was perfect for the basics for the ceremony and then going out for brunch afterwards.

Went a little matchy-matchy with the gold hardware on the bag with the gold charm necklace and gold stud earrings. I layered up some gold bracelets too but you can't see them with the long sleeves on the dress and long sleeves on the jacket covering them up.

Last worn: navy suede moto jacket, heart stud earrings, charm necklace, navy floral tiered dress, Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody.

Other ways to wear: navy suede moto jacket and jeans, navy floral tiered dress and denim jacket, Converse and shorts, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody and skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest navy suede moto zip jacket
Earrings: Kmart teal tassel earrings
Dress: Kmart teal floral print midi dress
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

This was unfortunately not a day off! I had to head into the office, again leaving before sunrise so sorry for the low quality photo. Since I liked the navy suede jacket with the floral dress in the outfit above so much I wore the formula again on this day with this Kmart teal floral print midi dress. I really like this dress with shades of blue, so I added blue converse with the navy jacket. I went a little matchy-matchy with the teal earrings but unfortunately they are hard to see in the photo.

Again I wore my Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag. It's great for all the essentials and I have a big work-issued laptop bag I can slip my water bottle and lunch into.

Last worn: navy suede moto jacket (above), teal tassel earrings, teal floral midi dress, blue Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag (above).

Other ways to wear: navy suede moto jacket with pink, teal floral midi dress and blazer, blue Converse and skirt, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and shorts.

Rust Tees, Black Knits, Skinny Jeans and Converse

Layering up some rust toned tees for Brisbane's winter with black jeans, Converse and cosy black knits recently.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Dotti black cocoon cape cardigan
Scarf: Alexander McQueen modal and cashmere skull scarf
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed red clay
Jeans: thrifted Cotton On The High Rise Skinny Jean black coated denim
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe Marcie medium shoulder bag in nut

Why I wore it:

I love the subtle different these coated denim jeans make to an outfit, I'm glad I thrifted them a while back to give the look a try. With a nice cosy cardigan is my favourite way to wear them, and this black cardigan is also an opshop find. With the black jeans, black Converse and black cardigan, I wanted to add a little more colour to this outfit. This washed clay tee is a lovely rust tone that had me pulling out my taupe Alexander McQueen skull scarf and nut brown Chloe Marcie bag to complement the colour.

This was a nice comfortable jeans and tee outfit for working from home, I wasn't planning on having too busy of a day, until I got the message from school in the morning reminding us it was a themed day. I ended up scrabbling to get to the shops and buy the kids something appropriate before drop off! Thankfully they made it to school just before the bell rung. Definitely an eventful morning! Luckily the rest of the day, working from home, didn't have any big surprises!


Last worn: black cocoon cardigan, Alexander McQueen skull scarf, rust tee, coated skinny jeans, Converse, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wear: black cocoon cardigan and printed jeans, skull scarf and dress, rust tee and shorts, coated skinny jeans and jumper, Converse and skirt, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag and dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Necklace: Roie Designs coral beaded tassel necklace
Tee: Anko Kmart short sleeve slub v-neck tee in copper 
Jeans: Nobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

This tee is a similar rust colour to the one above, although a different saturation so this one is a lot more vibrant. I liked the peachy necklace with this, but I kept everything else black so the tee was the only colour in my outfit. It was a quiet weekend day and I didn't have much on other than a couple of errands, after dropping my son off at a playdate and then picking him up later in the afternoon.

I only needed the essentials so this Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag fit everything I needed for the day.


Last worn: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana, rust tee, beaded necklace, Nobody Denim jeans, brown Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana and white jeans, rust tee and skirt, Nobody Denim jeans and duster, brown Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and skirt.

Floral Dresses In Winter With Leggings

I have so many cute floral dresses, and I try to wear them year-round. One recent weekend, I wore these two floral dresses with leggings and jackets to make them suitable for our winter weather.

What I wore:

Jacket: Anko Kmart mid wash denim jacket
Earrings: Colette blue mixed shape faux crustal drop earrings
Dress: thrifted Iris Maxi the Label purple floral tiered mini dress
Shoes: Asos Cleo leather boots in tan
Bag: Chloe periwinkle small Paraty

Why I wore it:

This was a very fun day! We had a kid's birthday party in the morning, and then a friend came over for a playdate in the afternoon, so the boys were very entertained.

I did not expect for the parents to get involved in the kids party though - at one point there was kids vs adults dodgeball and perhaps the boots were not the best choice of footwear. I ended up just taking the boots off and running around in my socks!

I did like the boots and leggings with this purple floral dress though, a recent opshop find that I'm looking forward to wearing with less layers when it warms up. With the turquoise in the bottom hem I was inspired to add a lot of blue to this, with the mid wash denim jacket, blue crystal earrings, and periwinkle blue Chloe small Paraty bag.


Last worn: denim jacket, crystal earrings, purple floral tiered mini dress, tall tan boots, Chloe Paraty bag.

Other ways to wear: denim jacket and skirt, purple floral tiered mini dress and trench, tall tan boots and blazer, Chloe Paraty bag and shorts.

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest black leather moto jacket
Earrings: Kmart gold circle glitter resin statement earrings
Dress: Jaase Semika mini smock dress in amor print mandarin dollar dress
Belt: came with dress
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

I knew I would be doing a lot of walking on this day so I still layered up this Jaase floral dress with leggings, but wore Converse instead of boots. Spent the day with my parents and sister, she's doing some renovations at the moment so we helped review a few tile choices and then all went out for lunch. It was a really nice day. It was a chilly morning so I layered up with this leather jacket, but with the long sleeves on this Jaase dress I didn't really feel I needed the jacket in the heat of the day.

It's the first time I've worn this dress with the provided belt since I got it! I liked the look, it's nice to have different ways to wear it. I feel the peachy floral print really pops with all the black, from the Converse, leggings, leather jacket and Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.


Last worn: gold glitter circle earrings, Jeanswest leather jacket, Jaase Semika floral dress, Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: Jeanswest leather jacket and maxi skirt, Jaase Semika floral dress and denim trench, Converse and jeans, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

Kisschasy Band Tees, Maxi Skirts, Denim Jackets and Converse

Wore two of my Kisschasy band tees recently with maxi skirts, denim jackets and Converse.

What I wore:

Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Earrings: Colette white pearl beaded gum leaf tassel earrings
Tee: Kisschasy Hymns for the Nonbeliever 2025 tour band tee (new purchase)
Skirt: thrifted NWT Beginning Boutique Sahara red-orange maxi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue

Why I wore it:

This was a bit of a warmer winter day so I wore this denim jacket with the sleeves rolled up. It was the perfect layer over this Kisschasy band tee and red tiered maxi skirt. I wore the Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag as I needed a large bag for all the essentials and a water bottle as well as my camera, as the kids were competing in sports and I went along to support them. I had a couple of errands to run as well, including taking the dogs for a bath and clip. This was a really comfortable outfit for that.

I liked how the coral red of the tiered maxi skirt tied in with the red text and graphic on the band tee. It was a nice matchy-matchy outfit for the first wearing of this tee.


Last worn: denim jacket, gold earrings, tiered maxi skirt, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid. First time I've worn the tee as it's a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: denim jacket worn 30 ways, tiered maxi skirt and leather jacket, Converse and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: denim jacket in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Anko Kmart mid wash denim jacket
Earrings: thrifted red dinosaur skeleton earrings
Tee: Kisschasy United Paper People 2023 tour band tee
Skirt: thrifted pinstripe maxi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Another little more subtle matchy-matchy, with the red dinosaur skeleton earrings to match the red in the graphic print on this Kisschasy band tee. I wasn't too sure about wearing this bold graphic print tee with the pinstripe maxi skirt, but I'm glad I gave it a go as I ended up really liking this pattern mix.

I think the pinstripe is delicate and fine enough it doesn't give too much of a pattern clash, and the denim jacket was a good topper too. This was a bit of a cooler day, but I didn't have to be outside long as I had school drop off and then working from home for the rest of the day, and then school pickup. As I only needed the essentials I just wore this little Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.


Last worn: dinosaur earrings, denim jacket, Kisschasy band tee, pinstripe maxi skirt, black Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: denim jacket and dress, Kisschasy band tee and jeans, pinstripe maxi skirt and leather jacket, black Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

Black Blouses, Colourful Jeans and Denim Trench Coat

Black blouses with colourful jeans, black Converse and my Kmart denim trench coat for winter office days in Brisbane.

What I wore:

Jacket: Kmart Anko full length oversized denim trench coat
Earrings: DIY green and red marble clay circle earrings
Blouse: Kmart black batwing button up blouse
Jeans: thrifted ASOS petite green skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

It's been a while since I've worn these green jeans so they were overdue another wear! I've hit 30 wears with them since I thrifted them a few years ago, but they only get an outing on cooler days. I couldn't resist going a little matchy-matchy with the green clay earrings. With the black blouse, the black Converse and black Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag were easy matchy choices as well. It wasn't too cold on this morning so the denim trench coat was all I needed to layer with for the commute to the office.


Last worn: denim trench coat, clay earrings, black blouse, green skinny jeans, black Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: denim trench coat and floral dress, black blouse and skirt, green jeans worn 30 ways, Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Kmart Anko full length oversized denim trench coat
Necklace: thrifted burgundy and cream beaded statement necklace
Dress: thrifted Seed heritage black dolman sleeve blouse
Jeans: Jeanswest Harper skinny pant in Russet
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather

Why I wore it:

I really like the statement voluminous sleeves on this black blouse, a recent thrift find. Unfortunately it makes it a little tricky to layer with. I was glad for the oversized relaxed fit of this denim trench as it accommodated the voluminous sleeves on the blouse nicely! 

I couldn't resist a little matching in this outfit too, with the burgundy beaded necklace and burgundy jeans. Again I went with the same black Converse as I was wearing another black top. I did change up the bag this time around though, wearing my Rebecca Minkoff croc embossed Love Too bag.


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

Other ways to wear: denim trench coat and dress, black blouse and skirt, burgundy jeans and graphic tee, black Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag and skirt.

Leopard Print Cocoon Cardigan With Black Denim

Two autumn outfits, both with black denim, colourful tops, and this cosy leopard print cocoon cardigan I recently thrifted.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted no label black and white leopard print cocoon cardigan
Necklace: thrifted rose gold station statement necklace
Tee: Kmart basic purple tee
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe small Paraty bag in wine purple

Why I wore it:

Couldn't believe my luck when I saw this leopard print cardigan at my favourite opshop! At just $1 it was a good replacement for the leopard print cardi I had a couple of winters ago and decided wasn't perfect for me, so donated back. This one I really like. I'm a sucker for a cocoon shaped cardigan, and with the black and white leopard print it looks great with everything. Wore it for a cooler autumn morning, although I did end up taking the cardigan off by the time we got to church as the sun came out and the day warmed up nicely.

The rose gold necklace is an opshop find too, from the same trip I got this cute knit on. The black skinny jeans are an old opshop find and while the purple tee and pink Converse were purchased new, the wine purple Chloe Paraty bag was a preloved find as well.


Last worn: purple tee, rose gold necklace, black skinny jeans, Chloe wine purple small Paraty bag. First time I've worn the pink Converse as they were a recent gift from mum, and first time I've worn the cardigan as it was a recent opshop buy.
 
Other ways to wear: purple tee and skirt, black skinny jeans and trench coat, Chloe wine purple small Paraty bag and dress.

---

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted no label black and white leopard print cocoon cardigan
Necklace: Roie Designs multi chain layered beaded necklace
Cami: thrifted Kmart dusty rose cami
Skirt: thrifted Target black stretch denim skirt
Shoes: Havaianas glitter Rosa Macaron (new purchase)
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Another very similar outfit to the one above with this leopard print cardigan. This time around I picked a plain pink cami, and a black denim pencil skirt. The cardigan was a great option to cover up the spaghetti straps on the cami when on video calls as I worked from home. It was warmer later in the day when I finished working and we stopped by the library, but I kept the cardigan on as I wasn't too hot in this denim skirt. Didn't need to carry much, so went with my little Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag which matched the cardigan, necklace and denim skirt nicely.

I liked the simplicity of this outfit and I see myself wearing this leopard print cocoon cardigan a lot more as the weather keeps cooling off here in Brisbane. Such a good opshop find.


Last worn: leopard print cocoon cardigan (above), black necklace, terracotta pink cami, black denim skirt, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag. First time I've worn the Havaianas as they are a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: terracotta pink cami and shorts, black denim skirt and stripes, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and maxi skirt.
