Printed Dresses, Bright Blazers and Mimco Teal Cocoon Bucket Bag

Wearing two pretty floral print dresses that I tried to make a little more formal for office days by adding bright blazers on top.

What I wore:

Jacket: Glassons orange jersey blazer
Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Dress: Jaase Celine autumn leaves mini dress
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal

Why I wore it:

I've worn this Jaase Celine dress into the office before. It's my go-to dress for special events, but I think with a blazer it looks a little more formal for a day at work. We had a lunch event on so I ended up taking the blazer off, the long sleeves on this dress kept me warm enough.

I really liked the orange blazer with the autumn leaves print on the dress, it was a great combination. I added the teal Mimco cocoon bucket bag as I've been loving wearing it lately, even though it doesn't match any of the colours in this print I liked the teal with the orange blazer and navy dress. The orange blazer just pops with everything I've worn it with.

Last worn: Tiffany necklace, orange blazer, Jaase Celine autumn leaves dress, white Converse, Mimco cocoon bucket bag.

Other ways to wear: orange blazer and jeans, Jaase Celine autumn leaves dress and leather jacket, white Converse and skirt, Mimco cocoon bucket bag with pink.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Jeanswest cobalt blue blazer
Earrings: gold Christmas present bow hoops
Necklace: Silhoupette gold plated Shih Tzu necklace
Dress: Boho Luxe floral print maxi dress (from my sister's wardrobe)
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal

Why I wore it:

My sister recently brought over a bunch of pieces she didn't want any more, and when I saw this dress I knew I had to have it! I always love a maxi dress. Wore it for another wet but humid day, again as I did with the dress above by adding the blazer to make it a little more office appropriate.

There were a few of us in the office on this day and we smiled when we realised most of us were wearing maxi dresses - I love unexpected coordinating like that! It was a day full of meetings so I kept the blazer on as we rushed between meeting rooms, but at least I was colourful and comfortable. The teal Mimco bag was a good match to the blues and turquoises in the print of the dress too I thought.


Last worn: gold silhouette necklace, cobalt blazer, blue Converse, Mimco cocoon bag (above). First time I've worn this dress as it's from my sister's wardrobe, and first time I've worn the earrings as they were a gift last Christmas.

Other ways to wear: cobalt blazer and jeans, blue Converse and shorts, Mimco cocoon bag and skirt.

Green and Blue Tee and Midi Skirt Outfits With Mimco Teal Bag

Wearing some midi skirts into the office with blue tees and my little teal Mimco cocoon bucket bag. I like the teal bag with these green and blue outfits, despite the different shades in both.

What I wore:

Earrings: Avocado Santa hat earrings
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Skirt: Kmart breeze green broderie anglaise midi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual plus jade bracelet
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal

Why I wore it:

This pale blue tee feels a littler more casual than a darker navy one, so I did consider adding a blazer to this. Despite the overcast start to the day it was still very humid though, so I decided not to add the extra layer. It was a quiet day in the office anyway.

I did like the paler blue tee against the bright green of the broderie skirt though. I often wear this skirt with blue tones. The blue Converse were a good match with the tee as well, although not exactly the same shade, they are very similar. I added a little more green with the jade bracelet as well. Wore a neutral navy statement necklace to try dress this up slightly for the office, and then my Mimco cocoon bucket bag that's been a real staple lately.

Last worn: pastel blue tee, navy beaded necklace, green broderie midi skirt, blue Converse, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag. First time I've worn the earrings as they were a gift.

Other ways to wear: pastel blue tee and shorts, green broderie midi skirt and Christmas tee, blue Converse and dress, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag and pencil skirt.

What I wore:

Earrings: DIY green clay Christmas tree earrings
Necklace: Starfish Project Hannah turquoise bead necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Sophie navy v-neck tee
Skirt: thrifted &Me blue linen button up midi skirt with pockets
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal

Why I wore it:

Again with the green and a lighter blue! This time around I wore this blue linen midi skirt, with a navy v-neck tee and my green beaded statement necklace for an extra pop of colour. I love wearing this green necklace with navy pieces in my wardrobe, I like the combination. And I really liked this linen midi skirt too. It does get creased up terribly easily, but it is also so light and perfect for a humid spring day. I like that it's also long enough to keep my legs covered up from the freezing aircon in the office.

Just like the midi skirt and tee outfit above, I wore my teal Mimco cocoon bucket bag with this outfit. I've been wearing it with almost everything lately, but I think the dark teal looks so good with blue.


Last worn: Christmas tree earrings, navy tee, green beaded necklace, linen midi skirt, white Converse, Mimco cocoon bag (above).

Other ways to wear: navy tee and jeans, linen midi skirt and printed tank, white Converse and dress, Mimco cocoon bag and blazer.

Navy Tees, Grey Pencil Skirts and Teal Bucket Bag

Wearing my new-to-me Mimco cocoon bucket bag in both these outfits. I scored it pre-loved on ebay as a treat for myself to celebrate something at work. I used to have a couple of these bags a long time ago and always missed having one in my wardrobe, so I am really enjoying having the style again! You will see it pop up a lot on the blog. The teal is a really nice shade that pairs so nicely with navy and grey, as I've worn it in both of these outfits.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Nadine 3/4 sleeve dusky pink blazer
Necklace: Kmart pink multi-colour beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Skirt: Atmos&Here grey marle jersey pencil skirt
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal (new purchase)

Why I wore it:

Even with the foil sparkle thread through this tee, the navy felt a little plain with the grey jersey pencil skirt, so I decided to dress this outfit up a bit and add more colour with the blush blazer. The blush pink is something I really like wearing with navy. I added the wooden beaded necklace for a little matchy-matchy. I wasn't sure about the teal Mimco cocoon bag against the pink but I really liked this combination, blush pink goes with so much.

This was a nice comfortable outfit for a quiet day in the office.

Last worn: blush blazer, pink wooden necklace, navy tee, grey jersey pencil skirt, white Converse. First time I've worn the bag as it's a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: blush blazer and dress, navy tee and maxi skirt, grey jersey pencil skirt and printed tank, white Converse and jeans

Perfect for pregnancy: blush blazer in third trimester, grey jersey pencil skirt in third trimester.

Mimco Cocoon Bucket Bag Unboxing

---

What I wore:

Necklace: Kelly's Kloset rainbow layered necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Ruby frill sleeve Ric Rac detailed tee in deep iris
Skirt: Target textured silver pencil skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal (new purchase)

Why I wore it:

This was a much more humid spring day, and with the statement necklace adding some colour to the navy tee and the textured pencil skirt looking a little more formal than the casual jersey one above, I skipped adding a blazer to this in the office. It also let me show off the cute frill detail on the sleeves of this tee.

Again I wore the teal Mimco cocoon bag, as in the outfit above I like it against navy and grey, and I felt it was a good accessory. Added the blue Converse for yet another shade of blue and because they are the best shoes for the commute to work and running up and down the stairs at the office between meeting rooms on different levels.


Last worn: navy frill sleeve tee, colourful beaded necklace, textured grey pencil skirt, blue Converse, Mimco teal cocoon bag (above).

Other ways to wear: navy frill sleeve tee and jeans, textured grey pencil skirt with green, blue Converse and dress.

Black Dresses, Sneakers and Violet Marc By Marc Jacobs Bag

Two little black dresses for work, both worn with my thrifted Marc By Marc Jacobs violet convertible clutch bag that I added an additional silver crossbody strap to.

What I wore:

Earrings: Colette silver filigree leaf diamante statement earrings
Dress: Jeanswest tucked ponte black dress
Shoes: Kmart sparkly silver glitter sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr Q Convertible clutch in electric violet

Why I wore it:

Went with all the silver for this outfit! This little black fit and flare dress is one I haven't worn in a while, so it was overdue a wear. As were the silver glitter sneakers, that I snapped up at a bargain price at Kmart and haven't worn an awful lot. It was good to get them out again. With the silver statement earrings and the silver glitter shoes against the little black dress I needed a bit more colour, so I wore my Marc by Marc Jacobs opshop find.

Nice simple outfit for a busy day at work, although we did have a very fun team lunch event in between all the meetings I had.


Last worn: silver earrings, black fit and flare dress, silver glitter sneakers, Marc by Marc Jacobs convertible clutch.

Other ways to wear: black fit and flare dress and blazer, silver glitter sneakers and maxi skirt, Marc by Marc Jacobs convertible clutch and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: black fit and flare dress in second trimester.

Marc By Marc Jacobs Thrift Find

---

What I wore:

Earrings: thrifted Colette gold metal flower stud statement earrings
Necklace: vintage gold initial necklace
Dress: Kmart long sleeve black tie neck dress in floral wisteria print
Belt: came with dress
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr Q Convertible clutch in electric violet

Why I wore it:

We had another event at work, so to not look too overdressed or underdressed I picked another black dress from my wardrobe to wear. This black floral print Kmart one is one I often wear, I really like it for the office and worn casually too. Unlike the outfit above where I went a little matchy-matchy with the silver accessories and silver hardware on the Marc by Marc Jacobs bag, this time around I wore gold accessories. My big statement gold earrings were an opshop find, and the little golden initial necklace is a vintage piece from my wardrobe. The blue converse are a good match with the blue in the print of the dress too.

The violet Marc By Marc Jacobs bag doesn't match the pink in the floral print of the dress exactly, but I like the different colours together.


Last worn: gold statement earrings, vintage letter m initial necklace, black floral midi dress, blue Converse, Marc by marc Jacobs convertible clutch (above).

Other ways to wear: black floral midi dress and leather jacket, blue Converse and skirt, Marc by Marc Jacobs convertible clutch and jeans

Navy Striped Dresses And Stella McCartney Falabella Bag

Two navy striped dress outfits for quiet office days in spring. Wearing my thrifted Stella McCartney Falabella bag with both dresses.

What I wore:

Necklace: Starfish Project Hannah turquoise bead necklace
Dress: Atmos&Here navy stripe tee dress 
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus jade beads
Bag: thrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black

Why I wore it:

Surprisingly, I realised I hadn't worn this green necklace with the navy striped shift dress before when I looked through my blog archives. I love wearing the green beads with navy so that seemed like a bit of an oversight! I was glad to wear the two together, and added a little more green with the beaded bracelets too. 

Kept to black with the rest of the accessories, with the Adidas Superstar sneakers and Stella McCartney Falabella bag, so that the green beaded necklace was the main statement in my outfit. This dress is so comfortable for a quiet desk centric day at the office, with a couple of errands after picking up the kids from school in the afternoon.


Last worn: green beaded necklace, navy striped shift dress, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Stella McCartney Falabella bag.

Other ways to wear: navy striped shift dress and leather jacket, Adidas Superstar sneakers and jeans, Stella McCartney Falabella bag and maxi skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: navy striped shift dress in second trimester.

What I wore:

Necklace: red multi strand beaded statement necklace
Dress: thrifted Kmart white and navy long sleeve stripe tee dress
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black

Why I wore it:

Since I liked the outfit formula above, I once again repeated it for another office day. This navy and white striped shift dress was a bargain $1 opshop find that I really enjoy wearing in cooler weather. The long sleeves and thicker fabric mean it doesn't get worn much over summer. It was perfect for this spring day though. With the white stripes in the dress I wore my white Converse for a bit of matchy-matchy, and again my Stella McCartney Falabella bag. It really goes with everything.

I added some contrasting colour like I did in the first outfit with another beaded necklace, this one a shorter red one but it still makes a nice statement against the navy striped dress.


Last worn: red beaded necklace, navy and white striped dress, white Converse, Stella McCartney Falabella bag (above).

Other ways to wear: navy and white striped dress and leather jacket, white Converse and skirt, Stella McCartney Falabella bag and jeans.

Wrap Dresses, Converse and Green Mini 5-Zip Bag

Wearing two printed wrap dresses and my little green Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag for office days recently.

What I wore:

Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Dress: Target Dannii Minogue Petites printed faux wrap dress
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff emerald green mini 5-zip rocker bag

Why I wore it:

Every time I wear this faux wrap dress I love it and wonder why it goes so long between wears! It was the perfect dress to wear on this hotter spring day. With some green in the print, I chose my little Rebecca Minkoff green Mini 5-zip bag to wear with it, even though the greens are different shades I really liked the darker green bag against this dress. And the blue Converse are also a different shade from the blue in the geometric print, but again I liked the combination.

Kept the necklace simple with my silver Tiffany notes heart necklace, and had a cardigan at my desk in case I got cold in the office aircon with the sleeveless dress. Didn't need it though, I got pretty warmed up just on the commute to the office!


Last worn: Tiffany heart necklace, Dannii Minogue faux wrap dress, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip bag.

Other ways to wear: Dannii Minogue faux wrap dress and blazer, blue Converse and shorts, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip bag and skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: Dannii Minogue faux wrap dress in second trimester

What I wore:

Earrings: DIY green and red marble clay circle earrings
Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace layered with Chanel necklace
Dress: Atmos&Here Arlette jersey wrap dress
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff emerald green mini 5-zip rocker bag

Why I wore it:

Another wrap dress from the depth of my wardrobe that was overdue a wear! Unfortunately I didn't love this outfit as much as the one above. I did like the black and white print with the pops of green from the Mini 5-zip bag and the green and red clay earrings I made, but the tulip hem of the dress was frustrating me a few times through the day as I sat at my desk. It was also quite a hot day for long sleeved wrap dress with such thick material, which may have made me more frustrated with it!

The dress is quite busy with the print and with the green statement earrings I wasn't sure what necklaces to add. Ended up layering two silver simple chain necklaces, as one on its own didn't look quite right. I liked the layered necklaces together, and I should wear them together more often.

Last worn: Atmos&Here wrap dress, Chanel necklace, Tiffany necklace, clay earrings, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag (above).

Other ways to wear: Atmos&Here wrap dress in winter, white Converse and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag and shorts.

Striped Tees, Skinny Jeans And Colourful Blazers With Balenciaga Bags

Adding some colour and a little more formality to casual striped tee and jeans outfit for the office with these bold and colourful blazers. Both blazers are preloved finds and  they are great additions to my work wardrobe.

What I wore:

Jacket: Glassons orange jersey blazer
Necklace: Jeanswest Taryn turquoise tassel bead necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in eddy stripe white / red terracotta
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bag: Balenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India with handmade textured strap

Why I wore it:

I've been enjoying wearing oranges and reds together. It's a very autumnal colour scheme, but this combination of the burgundy striped tee and the orange blazer was so subtle it felt like it worked well for spring. The faded black skinny jeans and the white Converse were a comfortable choice and nice neutrals, so I added a little extra colour with the Balenciaga first bag, which really pops against the orange blazer. The turquoise tassel necklace was a nice bit of matchy-matchy with it too.

It was a quiet, mostly sitting at my desk day, so jeans and a tee was perfect for my relaxed office. I did forget to throw the blazer back on for a meeting I had, but the meeting room was quite warm so it was better I didn't have that extra layer!


Last worn: orange blazer, burgundy stripe tee, turquoise tassel necklace, faded black skinny jeans, white leather Converse, bag strap, Balenciaga first bag.

Other ways to wear: orange blazer and skirt, burgundy stripe tee and maxi skirt, faded black skinny jeans and leather jacket, white leather Converse and dress, Balenciaga first bag and shorts.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Jeanswest cobalt blue blazer
Necklace: rose gold and turquoise beaded necklace
Tee: Cotton On "The One" fitted v tee in Cole stripe white moonlight
Jeans: Nobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga Day bag in 2005 magenta

Why I wore it:

Another outfit following the same formula, showing how fun a bright blazer is even over a simple jeans and tee outfit. Again I went with a striped tee and black skinny jeans. The blue blazer, blue beaded necklace and blue Converse sneakers are all different shades but they work so well together. I can never have too many shades of blue in an outfit!

With all the black and blue, I added another bright Balenciaga bag. Like in the outfit above, I like the bright combination of the contrasting bag and blazer. And the magenta Balenciaga day bag was definitely overdue another wear, it's been a while since I last wore it!


Last worn: cobalt blue blazer, striped tee, beaded necklace, Nobody denim jeans, blue Converse, magenta Balenciaga day bag.

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 .

Black Blouses, Jeans, and Pink Bags

Two black blouse, jeans, and pink bag outfits I wore to the office recently.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted magenta pink statement beaded necklace
Top: Kmart black batwing button up blouse
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga RH classic city in 2010 sorbet

Why I wore it:

Sometimes I struggle a bit picking a necklace for this blouse, but this pretty fuchsia statement necklace was perfect with it! I felt it added a pop of colour to the black blouse and grey jeans outfit even when I wasn't carrying around my pink Balenciaga city bag. That does add a big pop of colour too, but I don't carry it around the office, it sits on my desk.

Although the sorbet pink Balenciaga city bag and fuchsia necklace are different shades of pink, I thought they worked well together with the neutral outfit. I really liked the simplicity of this outfit, felt great in this all day.


Last worn: beaded necklace, batwing blouse, grey skinny jeans, black Converse, Balenciaga sorbet city bag.

Other ways to wear: batwing blouse and skirt, grey skinny jeans worn 30 ways, black Converse and maxi skirt, Balenciaga sorbet city bag worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester, Balenciaga sorbet city bag at 37 weeks.

What I wore:

Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Top: Jeanswest 'Tilda' black shirt
Jeans: thrifted Zara pink frayed hem skinny jeans
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff small Darren messenger bag in peony

Why I wore it:

I didn't like this outfit as much as the one above. Although the pink jeans are comfortable and the black blouse is a good basic piece, I just didn't enjoy wearing this as much as the outfit above. It's a shame this top isn't worn more often, being a black long sleeve blouse it's such a good basic. It just always seems to get passed over for more interesting tops. It's actually not been worn in years, so it's a piece that will be leaving my wardrobe. I'll donate it to the opshop.

Again I added another shade of pink to this outfit with the blush Rebecca Minkoff Darren messenger bag. It's not the same shade of pink as the jeans, but like the two different shades in the first outfit, I think the pinks looked good together. Simple outfit for another office day, even if I didn't like this as much as the first outfit.


Last worn: button detail blouse, Tiffany necklace, pink jeans, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Darren bag.

Other ways to wear: button detail blouse and skirt, pink jeans and knit, white Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Darren bag worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: button detail blouse in third trimester.
