Blue Knit Jumpers With Scarves and Black Jeans

Two more knit jumper outfits, with black skinny jeans and scarves. One I wore to work from home, the other I wore in the office.

What I wore:

Scarf: ASOS crinkle oversized leopard print scarf
Jumper: thrifted Valleygirl blue knit jumper
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
Bag: Chloe small Paraty bag in wine purple

Why I wore it:

I wore this to work from home back in the holidays. I logged off in the afternoon to take the kids to a STEM class at the library, they really loved it! It was a colder day so I wanted to be warm, and this blue marle jumper was due another wear. It's a piece I thrifted a few years ago, and I've gotten more than 30 wears out of it, definitely a good opshop buy! 

I wanted to skip wearing a jacket, but still be warm, so I added this leopard print scarf. And the brown Converse were an attempt to be a bit matchy-matchy, even though they are a different shade of brown from the leopard print in the scarf. I added more colour with the purple Chloe Paraty bag, and also picked it as it fits all my essentials plus a couple of water bottles, perfect for when we went out in the afternoon.

Last worn: blue marle jumper, leopard print scarf, skinny jeans, brown Converse, purple Chloe Paraty bag.

Other ways to wear: blue marle jumper worn 30 ways, leopard print scarf and tee, skinny jeans and graphic tee, brown Converse and dress, purple Chloe Paraty bag and skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: blue jumper in first trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Kmart Anko full length oversized denim trench coat
Scarf: Jeanswest Lucille golden yellow scarf
Jumper: thrifted blue Kmart stitch detail knit
Jeans: Nobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

This blue knit seam detail jumper is also an opshop find, although I haven't hit 30 wears with it! I do enjoy wearing it and just bought a similar one in pink in the Kmart clearance recently. Again I wore it with black jeans, and instead of a printed scarf I wore this bright yellow one. With the blue jumper, blue denim trench coat, and Luna blue Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag, I felt like I needed an extra colour in this outfit to brighten it up a bit. And blue and yellow look so good together.

Even with the jumper and the jeans and the denim trench and scarf it was a bit chilly, one of those really cold winter days. I was glad to reach the office that morning!


Last worn: denim trench, yellow scarf, blue seam detail jumper, Nobody Denim Siren jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wear: denim trench and dress, yellow scarf and LBD, blue seam detail jumper and pink jeans, Nobody Denim Siren jeans and blazer, Adidas Superstar sneakers and shorts, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag and skirt.

Red Tees, Printed Maxi Skirts, Blue Jackets and Rebecca Minkoff Edie Bag

Wearing some colourful blue and red outfits, with printed maxi skirts, red tees, blue jackets and recently thrifted necklaces.

What I wore:

Jacket: Wittner 'Santa Fe' cobalt blue leather jacket
Necklace: thrifted blue knotted beaded necklace (new purchase)
Tee: thrifted Suzanne Grae basics red tee (new purchase)
Skirt: thrifted ruffle hem leopard print midi skirt 
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

I really liked this outfit! The red tee is a new-to-me opshop find. I am always on the hunt for good basic cotton tees in the opshops, and I loved the bright red of this. Although I have a few red tees already in my wardrobe, at just $1, I had to pick this up! With the bright cobalt leather jacket it really pops, and I added some more interest to this outfit with the leopard print maxi skirt. The skirt is also an opshop find. Despite a small slit up the side it was long enough on this breezey winter day to keep my legs cosy. I went with the brown Converse to match the browns in the leopard print skirt, and then I went matchy-matchy with the bag and necklace too. I think this Luna blue Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag is a great pairing with the greyish-blue on this necklace.

While it was a colder winter day, we were up early as I took the kids to a science show. They had a great time, made the errands we had to run afterwards a little more bearable as we had such fun at the show!


Last worn: blue leather jacket, leopard print maxi skirt, brown Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag. First time I've worn the necklace and the tee as they are recent opshop buys.

Other ways to wear: blue leather jacket worn 30 ways, leopard print maxi skirt and blazer, brown Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag and jeans.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest navy suede moto zip jacket
Necklace: thrifted grey and white beaded necklace (new purchase)
Tee: Zalora Basics maroon stepped t-shirt
Skirt: Jeanswest Farrah blue tie dye maxi skirt 
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

Another red tee and maxi skirt outfit combination! Like the one above, I stuck with blue and red, with this deeper burgundy tee and the fun blue tie dye print maxi skirt. I went with a darker blue jacket with this navy suede one that's really warm for winter. Perfect for an early morning school drop off, although I didn't need it too much in the afternoon for school pick up. I worked from home when the kids were at school, had an appointment, and then took the kids to the dentist after school.

While the shades of blue and red in this outfit are different from the brighter ones above, I liked this outfit too. The skirt does have a pretty large slit up the side so was not as warm as I'd have liked in the morning, but it thankfully got warmer later in the day when the sun was shining.

Just like the outfit above, I accessorised with the Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie bag - it fits my current library read in it along with all my essentials, great for in the writing room at the dentist. The necklace is an opshop find too, I thrifted both this one and the blue one in the same store. I love the chunky beads.


Last worn: navy suede jacket, burgundy tee, tie dye maxi skirt, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag (above). First time I've worn the necklace as it's a recent opshop find.

Other ways to wear: navy suede jacket and jeans, burgundy tee and shorts, tie dye maxi skirt and knit, white Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag and jeans.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

Black Skinny Jeans, Blouses and Denim Trench Coat

Wearing my Kmart denim trench coat again, with black skinny jeans, blue Converse and blouses for winter office days.

What I wore:

Jacket: Kmart Anko full length oversized denim trench coat
Earrings: Target solid silver hoops
Necklace: thrifted hammered silver statement necklace
Top: Jeanswest Frankie soft blouse in berry
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: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

Despite it being a super cold winter day I had an event at work I wanted to dress up for. I caved and went with jeans for warmth, and had a singlet layered under this silky blouse. With the long sleeves it kept me warm and I felt it dressed up my jeans a little more, especially when paired with this silver statement necklace. The funniest thing was when I saw mum in the afternoon, she was also wearing a silky blouse like this, just in blue!

With the denim trench and the Nobody Denim skinny jeans this was a lot of denim, but I didn't have to wear my trench in the office. I added a little extra blue against the trench though with the blue Converse and the blue Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag.

Last worn: denim trench coat, silver hoop earrings, silver necklace, silky blouse, Nobody Denim skinny jeans, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wear: denim trench coat and dress, silky blouse and maxi skirt, Nobody Denim skinny jeans and leather jacket, blue Converse and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag and shorts.

What I wore:

Jacket: Kmart Anko full length oversized denim trench coat
Earrings: Colette Tropadelic purple beaded tassel statement earrings
Top: Jeanswest Chana long sleeve stud top in night sky navy
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bag: Balenciaga raisin purple 2009 giant silver G21 hardware work bag

Why I wore it:

Another long sleeved jewel toned blouse with black jeans, this navy studded one this time. Again I wore the denim trench, it's been keeping me quite cosy in the cooler morning and afternoon commutes to work. As this navy blouse is studded I skipped the necklace, and just added these purple statement earrings. I wanted a purple bag to be a bit matchy-matchy, and although this raisin purple Balenciaga work bag isn't an exact match with the purple earrings I liked the two together.

Again I wore my blue Converse. They are becoming a go-to with this denim trench, even though like the bag and earrings they aren't exact shade matches.


Last worn: purple tassel earrings, denim trench coat (above), navy blouse, faded black skinny jeans, blue Converse (above), purple Balenciaga work bag.

Other ways to wear: denim trench coat and dress, navy blouse and skirt, faded black skinny jeans and stripes, blue Converse and maxi skirt, purple Balenciaga work bag.

Blue and Green Office Outfits With Skirts And Rebecca Minkoff Edie Shoulder Bag

Both of these green and blue outfits for work feature skirts, and very different shades of green and blue together, but I like the colour pairings in each of them.

What I wore:

Earrings: MIMCO fleur stud silver earrings
Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Top: Forever New Clara cowl neck sleeveless top in teal
Skirt: Warehouse navy jacquard pencil skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual plus Mimco Slay to the rhythm bracelet in silver
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

Felt like this lovely navy jacquard pencil skirt was overdue another wear! I used to wear pencil skirts most days to the office, but since embracing midi skirts lately my pencil skirts have been a little neglected. It was nice to get this out for another wear, and the black and navy works so well with the deep jewel green of this cowl neck tank. The tank was a Christmas present from my Mum and it's so perfect for the office, it got me a lot of compliments. I'll be wearing it more often!

Kept the casual Converse despite the rest of the dressed up outfit as I need comfortable shoes for the commute and running up and down stairs between meeting rooms in the office with my knee injury. Added another shade of blue to this outfit with the Luna blue Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag, it always works well with navy.


Last worn: Mimco earrings, Tiffany necklace, jacquard pencil skirt, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag. First time I've worn the top as it was a Christmas present.

Other ways to wear: jacquard pencil skirt and blazer, black Converse and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag and dress.

Perfect for pregnancy:  jacquard pencil skirt in first trimester, Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Necklace: Kelly's Kloset rainbow layered necklace
Tank: Cle The Label Amelia tank in indigo 
Skirt: Kmart breeze green broderie anglaise midi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

Another green and blue outfit, this time in brighter shades. I really like this green broderie midi skirt, I wear it a lot over December as it seems so festive, but it gets worn now and then through the year as well. I paired it with this casual navy cotton tank, then worried it was a little too casual an outfit for the office as we had a colleague visiting. So I added the statement necklace to try dress this up a little, as it was much too hot for my usual go-to of a blazer. I love blazers for the office, but in the Brisbane summer heat and humidity, I really don't need another layer!

Once again I wore my Converse. They add another shade of blue to this outfit, and although they are different from the navy tank and the Luna blue Edie shoulder bag I like the different shades of blue together with the green broderie skirt.


Last worn: beaded necklace, navy tank, green broderie midi skirt, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag (above).

Other ways to wear: navy tank and jeans, green broderie midi skirt and printed tee, blue Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag and denim jacket.

Green and Red: Blue Singlet and Maxi Skirt Outfits

Wearing skirts and singlets for some very humid summer days in Brisbane! Both these outfits feature the same basic formula, just with different colours.

What I wore:

Earrings: gold angel stud earrings
Necklace: thrifted Belle Folie multi colour tassel necklace
Tank: Kmart navy ribbed tank
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: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

Wore this to go to church and run a couple of errands afterwards. I really like this thrifted tiered maxi skirt, it's the perfect in-between red and orange shade so it looks so good with a neutral like navy. I added a little more colour to it with the fun tassel necklace, also an opshop find.

I added even more blue with the Luna blue Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag. It's been a while since I've worn it, and it works so well with red and other shades of blue that it seemed like the obvious accessory for this outfit.


Last worn: angel stud earrings, navy tank, tassel necklace, tiered maxi skirt, sandals, Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag.

Other ways to wear: navy tank and shorts, tiered maxi skirt and denim jacket, sandals and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag and dress.

What I wore:

Earrings: Avocado Santa hat earrings
Necklace: thrifted bronze foil statement necklace
Dress: Jeanswest 'Jenni' basic singlet in Hawaii blue
Skirt: Kmart breeze green broderie anglaise midi skirt
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe Marcie medium shoulder bag in nut

Why I wore it:

As I so often do, this outfit is me repeating an outfit formula again that worked so well previously. I chose a brighter blue tank to wear with this green broderie midi skirt, and added a little extra green with my avocado Santa hat earrings and the green hair tie. I had to tie my hair back as it was just too hot and humid to leave it down! We had a birthday party at an indoor play place to attend in the morning, and then we were planning to view the Christmas lights in the evening. Unfortunately the massive storms that blew in meant we couldn't keep to our evening plans, but at least the kids had fun at the birthday party.

Wore my big Chloe Marcie shoulder bag as it holds all the essentials easily, and it has extra space for water bottles for the kids. It's thirsty work at an indoor play area for a birthday party, especially on such a humid day!


Last worn: avocado earrings, bronze foil necklace, blue singlet, green broderie skirt, leather Converse, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wear: blue singlet and shorts, green broderie skirt and blazer, leather Converse and dress, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag and jeans.

Perfect for pregnancy: blue singlet in second trimester.

Blue Knits, Pink Jeans and Rebecca Minkoff Edie Bag

More cosy knits to combat the winter weather in Brisbane. I'm wearing both of these blue jumpers with pink jeans and my Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag.

What I wore:

Earrings: Kmart lilac statement ball drop earrings
Scarf: Sportsgirl animal scarf in violet
Jumper: thrifted Valleygirl blue knit jumper
Jeans: thrifted Zara pink frayed hem skinny jeans
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

Completely layered up for a cold morning with this blue cobalt marl knit, and big cosy purple leopard print scarf with my pink frayed hem jeans. I added the lilac earrings as I felt they matched the lighter pastel purple in the leopard print scarf, although the shades are not a perfect match I really liked the combination.

There was a morning event at school that I hung around for after school drop off, and then I worked from home before school pick up in the afternoon. While it was still windy in the afternoon the sun was out so I was able to leave the scarf at home for school pick up.


Last worn: lilac earrings, purple leopard print scarf, cobalt marl knit, pink frayed hem jeans, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie bag.

Other ways to wear: purple leopard print scarf and stripes, cobalt marl knit over a dress, pink frayed hem jeans with graphic tee, white Converse and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie bag and skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: blue jumper in first trimester.

What I wore:

Earrings: Colette silver filigree leaf diamante statement earrings
Jumper: Jeanswest Beth ombre stripe knit pullover jumper in navy
Jeans: Sass & Bide The Winning Day Lovestate jeans in magenta
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

Another cosy jumper and jeans outfit as I was feeling the cold on this morning! I had a couple of errands to run and my son had a birthday party to go to. This blue ombre knit jumper is quite warm and thick so I skipped a scarf with this, which was good as it turned into a warmer afternoon. I added statement earrings as well although it's a little hard to see the silver earrings in the pics!

Although the shades of blue and pink in this outfit are different from the one above, again I wore my Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie bag. It just goes so well with any kinds of blues and pinks, and I like how organised it keeps me with the different compartments.


Last worn: silver earrings, blue ombre marl knit jumper, Sass and bide pink jeans, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag (above).

Other ways to wear: blue ombre marl knit jumper and maxi skirt, Sass and bide pink jeans and duster, blue Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag and shorts.

Jeans, Cosy Knits and Luna Blue Edie Bag

With colder winter days in Queensland, I've pulled out some of my warmer winter knits to keep me cosy!

What I wore:

Jacket: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Necklace: mixed metal hammered pendant necklace
Tee: Atmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

I really like this knitted poncho. It's too warm to wear most of the year in Brisbane, but on this chilly winter day it was perfect! Just like a snuggly blanket it kept me warm for working from home, and then in the afternoon when we had some errands to run and a birthday present to buy for my son's friend.

With the pretty pattern on this poncho I stuck to neutral pieces underneath with this navy tee and the black skinny jeans and black Converse, I added a little more colour with another shade of blue from this Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie bag, that goes with everything!

Last worn: knitted poncho, mixed metal necklace, navy tee, faded black skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wear: knitted poncho with yellow, navy tee and shorts, faded black skinny jeans and blazer, Converse and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag and dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest waterfall drape cardigan in scarlett marle
Earrings: Piper gold and turquoise disc dangle earring
Jeans: Nobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

This was a cold morning that was threatening rain and I was honestly tempted to stay inside all day! I'd booked the kids in for a couple of school holiday events though so we braved the chill and wrapped up warmly. Got a lot of fun photos too, with a wildlife show (even the lizards had their own hot water bottle!) and then a coding event at the library.

This red waterfall drape cardigan is one that can be buttoned up on the shoulders. Great for breastfeeding in winter and using as a cover up, it also turns into a cosy wrap tunic if you just button up both sides. It's the first time I've worn this red one like this (although I've done it with the navy version of this cardigan before) and I really liked this. I skipped the scarf and added statement earrings instead to dress this up a little, but the cheerful red of this cardigan makes enough of a statement on its own.

Paired it with my dark grey jeans, and again the black Converse and Luna blue Edie shoulder bag.


Last worn: red waterfall cardigan, statement earrings, grey jeans, black Converse (above), Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie bag (above).
 
Other ways to wear: red waterfall cardigan and printed jeans, grey jeans with pink, black Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie bag and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester,

Green Floral Duster, Jeans and Metallic Tops

Two outfits making the most of the not to cold yet winter weather in Brisbane to wear my green floral duster again. It's a firm favourite, and in both of these outfits I'm wearing it with grey jeans and metallic tops.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Delilah long line kimono in green floral
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
Tank: Jeanswest Maji metallic tank in soft green and silver
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

I knew I wanted to give this green duster a wear, despite the cooler morning, as I had a little bit of running around to do that day that would keep me warm. I had the school run, working from home, and then an appointment for my son in the afternoon. This was a great outfit for that.

With the colourful green duster I stuck to neutrals for everything else. I had to add the navy necklace for a bit of darker colour and to break up the monochromatic-ness of the silver tank with the grey skinny jeans, and then decided to add in another shade of blue with the Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag. It's also a great bag for fitting a book inside along with all my essentials to keep me occupied waiting for my son's appointment.


Last worn: green floral duster, silver metallic tank, navy necklace, grey skinny jeans, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wear: green floral duster and skirt, silver metallic tank and shorts, grey skinny jeans worn 30 ways, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag.

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Delilah long line kimono in green floral
Necklace: Roie Designs feather, quartz and love charm long necklace
Tee: Just Jeans Jamie shirt tail v neck tee in coated champagne gold
Jeans: Nobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black

Why I wore it:

I'd considered wearing this gold metallic tee instead of the silver metallic tank above with this duster, so on another warmer day I took the opportunity to wear the duster again just to wear the tee with it. I do love how the green pops against natural metallic pieces! Again I wore grey jeans, these Nobody Denim ones are so comfortable and with the Converse it was nice and practical for working from home, the school run, and sports in the afternoon. I wasn't sure about the silver chain on the Stella McCartney Falabella bag with the gold tee, but I think the neutral black worked so well with this outfit that I'm glad I gave it a try.

Last worn: green floral duster (above), gold linen tee, feather necklace, charcoal jeans, black Converse, Stella McCartney Falabella.

Other ways to wear: green floral duster and dress, gold linen tee worn 2 ways, charcoal jeans and cardigan, black Converse and skirt, Stella McCartney Falabella and maxi dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

Pink Tees and Printed Shorts

Although it's officialy autumn now in Brisbane, I wore these outfits back in summer. It had been a particularly hot summer, so I defaulted to shorts and tee outfits like this a lot! Both of these outfits have printed shorts and pink tees.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted metallic clay bead necklace
Tee: Cle The Label Charlotte tee in ombre rose
Shorts: Jeanswest Parker printed shirred short
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mica Bag - Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB side zip tote in pale lilac hand painted by Sheila

Why I wore it:

I was surprised to see in my blog archives I haven't worn this ombre pink tee and the black printed shorts together before! I really like wearing these cute black printed shorts with pink, and this tee is such a good pairing.

Had a very quiet day with the school run, working from home, and a physio appointment so shorts and a tee (and practical sneakers) was a good choice for the day. I added a bit of matchy-matchy with the navy Sketchers and the navy beads in the necklace. And then added another print against the black printed shorts with the hand illustrated Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag. I really like wearing it with pink!


Last worn: ombre pink tee, statement necklace, black printed shorts, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag.

Other ways to wear: ombre pink tee and blazer, black printed shorts and cardigan, Sketchers and sundress, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag and dress.

---

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted wood and marble bead thrifted necklace with white string
Tee: Kmart short sleeve cotton modal tee in tulip pink
Shorts: Kmart culotte short in navy lemon print
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

Another shorts and tee outfit for the school run and working from home. Despite a rainy start to the day, it was still a hot and humid one, so I appreciated this slouchy soft pink tee and the loose relaxed culotte shorts. With the different shades of pink in the tee and the print of the shorts, I added the neutral beaded necklace to keep it simple.

Stuck with blue accessories, with the blue Converse and this Luna blue Edie shoulder bag which works so well with pink and with navy.


Last worn: pink modal tee, statement necklace, navy printed culotte shorts, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wear: pink modal tee and jeans, navy printed culotte shorts and knit, Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag and skirt.
