Leather Jackets and Striped Tee Dresses: Weekday Wear Link Up

Making my striped tee-dresses a little more winter friendly with some scarves and leather jackets, for two very different (but thankfully not too cold) winter days.

What I wore:

Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings

Jacket: Wittner 'Santa Fe' cobalt blue leather jacket
Scarf: Alexander McQueen modal and cashmere skull scarf
Dress: Atmos&Here navy stripe tee dress 
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff chevron quilted small Love crossbody bag in pale coral

Why I wore it:

This was a really fun day! Hubby took the boys for a day of birthday parties to celebrate three different kid's birthdays while I headed down the coast with my mum and sister for a day of shopping. Something we had been trying to plan for a while, but eventually everything aligned and we were able to go. Since Pac Fair shopping centre is part indoors and part outdoors, I thought bare legs were okay despite a little bit of a breeze. This was a really comfortable outfit to wear although when the wind picked up in the evening it was a little chilly.

With the navy stripes on the tee dress and the cobalt blue leather jacket I thought this little peachy Rebecca Minkoff small Love bag was the perfect pop of colour, especially as I was wearing a neutral taupe skull scarf. I really like skull scarves with this striped dress! As it was a rare kid-free day for me I really didn't need to carry much. While my new wallet means this bag is a bit of a tight squeeze with phone, keys and hand sanitiser I just left the wallet behind and took a few cards with me, using it like a wallet on a chain. Didn't need to worry about having any payment methods with me in the end! I did try on a couple of pieces, but didn't buy anything as mum picked up the two tops I liked in the H&M sale for me. Can't wait for warmer weather to wear what she bought me!


Last worn: heart earrings, cobalt leather jacket, taupe skull scarf, navy stripe tee dress, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff pale coral small Love bag.

Other ways to wear: cobalt leather jacket and maxi skirt, taupe skull scarf and shirt dress, navy stripe tee dress and denim jacket, Rebecca Minkoff pale coal small Love bag and black maxi dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: taupe skull scarf in first trimester, navy stripe tee dress in second trimester.

Rebecca Minkoff Edie and Love Bag Comparison:

What I wore:

Jacket: Asos Black by Markus Lupfer printed leather jacket
Scarf: Fashion Scarf Girl lush forest scarf
Dress: thrifted Kmart white and navy long sleeve stripe tee dress
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

Was planning for this to be a more leisurely day. We had a couple errands to run and some groceries to grab in the morning, before a trip to the library and then some time at the playground before heading home. Just as we pulled up to the library though my sister called to let me know another lockdown had been announced for Brisbane. It's not as bad as what Sydney is going through thankfully, just 8 days. Given the government hasn't bothered to secure enough vaccines for us these short lockdowns are a way of life for us now! 8 days seems particularly long as 3 days is our usual, but the virus got into a school so extra time was needed to make sure all the cases were identified and quarantined to get us back to zero covid cases outside of quarantine, which we are at now.

The kids were really happy as it meant I let them stock up on a lot more books than usual! We did decide to go home after though, skipping the playground in favour of starting lockdown at home a little early and playing in the backyard instead. Even if our day was cut a little short it was a good morning.

I'd decided to wear this cute striped tee dress as I really haven't been wearing enough dresses this winter! And this one layers well with the black leather jacket. I changed my mind a couple times about the scarf, the one I'd thought would be nice with the little Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody looked a bit off so I picked this one instead. I've enjoyed wearing it with stripes before and I like the magenta of the bag with the purple in the scarf. It was a little warm with both the scarf and leather jacket though and I ended up taking the leather jacket off - warmed up much more than I expected!


Last worn: black printed leather jacket, forest print scarf, white striped tee dress, New Balance sneakers (above), Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: black printed leather jacket worn 30 ways, forest print scarf with purple, white striped tee dress with pink, Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag and pencil skirt.

How You Can Wear It:

A leather jacket is a nice way to winterise a dress a little for a warmer winter day. Stripes are a great base for print mixing too, and a colourful scarf can be a fun way to add a little extra to your outfit. A bright crossbody bag adds more colour too!

Weekday Wear Link Up: Printed Tanks, Colourful Jeans and Converse

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up, wearing one of the easiest outfits: jeans and a nice top! Pairing these printed tanks with colourful jeans for some bright winter outfits recently.

Quick update too: I managed to achieve No Buy July again this year, no new fashion purchases! First month of the slow fashion season #FashionDetox completed as well! I did go out for a day of shopping with my mum and sister the other weekend but didn't buy any clothes - came home with some skincare and two tops my mum bought me.

What I wore:

Jacket: Barkins beige trench coat
Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Tank: Jeanswest Elissa leaf print tank
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:

Wore this admittedly very casual outfit for another day in the office recently. Hybrid ways of working continue at my workplace with most people preferring to work from home, but we all took the opportunity to go into the office on this day so I could meet the Brisbane based people in my new project team. Most of them I've worked with before but it was good to see them all in person after over a year and meet some new faces I hadn't worked with before.

Didn't really want to go full corporate style because it was a cold day. Went with comfortable jeans and Converse and then this pretty fern print tank to dress the outfit up a little. Was good to get this trench coat out again as it didn't see much love last year with the 6 week March 2020 autumn lockdown. It's usually frequently worn for commuting in the colder months. I swapped it for a navy cardigan when I was in the office.

Since I wore this little croc Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag last time I was in the office, wore it again this time. I liked the deep teal colour against the navy and red print of the tank and it was really nice against the burgundy jeans.


Last worn: trench coat, fern print tank, Tiffany heart necklace, burgundy jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff deep teal Love Too bag.

Other ways to wear: trench coat worn 30 ways, fern print tank and pencil skirt, burgundy jeans and kimono, Converse and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff deep teal Love Too bag and maxi dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: camel trench coat in first trimester, Converse in second trimester.

My Rebecca Minkoff Handbag Collection:

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest waterfall drape cardigan in navy night sky marle
Necklace: For King & Country Priceless Australian coin and crest necklace
Tank: Sass and Bide "For Easy Reference" tank
Jeans: Sass & Bide The Winning Day Lovestate jeans in magenta
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

This was actually the cardigan I wore in the office on the day above! Liked it in that outfit so much I created a similar outfit for this quiet day of mum life. The Sass and Bide tank is quite light but the cardigan was thick enough to keep me cosy for the school run. I liked the neutral brown tank and navy cardigan with the bright magenta jeans too. These are such such fun winter staple. Again I went with Converse, blue ones this time to add even more colour to my outfit.

Swapped out the teal Love Too bag for another Rebecca Minkoff bag, this small Edie bag. I thought the magenta was a nice matchy-matchy with the jeans. Didn't need to carry much either, just the school run, then playground and library with the little one and his water bottle fit in the library tote nicely. 

Last worn: navy waterfall cardigan, coin necklace, brown printed tank, magenta jeans, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff small Edie bag.

Other ways to wear: navy waterfall cardigan and shorts, brown printed tank and metallic jeans, magenta jeans and leather jacket, blue Converse and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff small Edie bag and kimono.

---

How You Can Wear It:

Colourful jeans are a great choice in winter to stay warm while wearing a bright and cheerful outfit. You can add even more interest to your outfit with a cute printed tank and a warm neutral cardigan or coat on top to combat the winter chill too.

Pink and Purple Tee Outfits With Navy Printed Culottes

Pink and purple shorts and tee outfits with some bright and colourful crossbody bags. Because I love wearing bright bags, even when I'm also wearing a colourful outfit! I love these navy culottes too and wore them in the previous post, they have been summer staples.

What I wore:

Necklace: ZuriCollections blue polymer clay necklace
Tee: Spectrum basic v-neck tee in washed lilac
Shorts: Kmart culotte short in navy lemon print
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

Wore this to be extra colourful on a pretty standard school run and work from home day. I had to log out a little early to take my son to an appointment in the afternoon too. With a lot of driving and running around, the Adidas superstar shoes were so comfortable!

The lemon myrtle print on these Kmart navy culottes has yellow, pastel pink and blue in the print, but no purple. I still thought that this lilac tee would be a good pairing with them, it goes so well even if it doesn't match the print at all.

The magenta Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag was a fun pop of colour with the navy and lilac too - and since I didn't have to carry much in my bag on this day it was the perfect size. Just enough space for phone, wallet, keys and hand sanitiser.

Last worn: lilac v-neck tee, statement beaded necklace, Kmart navy printed culotte shorts, Adidas Superstar, Rebecca Minkoff Edie.

Other ways to wear: lilac v-neck tee and maxi skirt, Kmart navy printed culotte shorts with pink, Adidas Superstar and midi dress, Rebecca Minkoff Edie and striped dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: lilac v-neck tee in second trimester.

More Ways To Wear Bright Bags:

---

What I wore:

Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Ruby frill sleeve tee in fuchsia
Shorts: Jeanswest Valerie yarn dye stripe short in navy and white
Shoes: Kmart white chunky platform sneakers (new purchase)
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
Bag: thrifted Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr Q Convertible clutch in electric violet (new purchase) with Rebecca Minkoff Crystal Star Shoulder Guitar strap

Why I wore it:

This was a fun Sunday! We headed out to the playground a little early to try beat the heat and chilled in the aircon at home afterwards. This fuchsia pink frill sleeve tee hasn't been worn in a while and I was curious to see how my newly thrifted Marc By Marc Jacobs bag would look with it - it's a very purple toned magenta but it looks almost burgundy against the fuchsia tee! I liked the combination though and I went with the neutral navy striped culottes to balance out the bright bag and tee together. The Kmart chunky platform sneakers were another recent purchase too, at just $2!

This Marc By Marc Jacobs convertible clutch is supposed to be a shoulder bag - it comes with a shoulder strap, but being a mum and preferring crossbody bags I knew it would be great for that too. I had this Rebecca Minkoff embellished guitar strap that hadn't been used for a while and it makes the bag a perfect length to wear crossbody! Even if the bright tee and the embellished strap felt a little overdressed for a quiet Sunday at the playground, I still thought it was a fun outfit.

Last worn: pink frill sleeve tee, Tiffany heart necklace, navy stripe culotte shorts, Rebecca Minkoff studded guitar strap. First time I've worn the sneakers and the bag as they are a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: pink frill sleeve tee and maxi skirt, navy stripe culotte shorts in monochrome outfit, Rebecca Minkoff studded guitar strap and grey bag.

How You Can Wear It:

Pink, purple and navy are a great combination of colours to wear together! You can go really small by adding a colourful bag to your outfit for a third colour in the combo, or bigger and bolder with a pink or purple block colour tee and navy shorts.

Striped Tanks And Maxi Skirts With Rebecca Minkoff Crossbody Bags | Weekday Wear Link Up

Keeping things super simple for more hot days a couple weeks ago with striped tanks and block colour maxi skirts. Both maxi skirts were lucky opshop finds and they work well with the striped tanks! Not that you can really go wrong with stripes.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted magenta pink statement beaded necklace
Tank: Atmos & Here Oregon stripe tank
Skirt: thrifted navy viscose drawstring no label maxi skirt
Shoes: Wittner 'Jasmarie' studded sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

I like black and navy together - although I used to think that they were two colours you should never wear together, so silly! I liked the black and white stripes with the navy skirt but this outfit felt like it was missing a little colour, so I added the magenta Rebecca Minkoff Edie cross body bag and then went a little matchy-matchy with the magenta statement necklace. I haven't been wearing a lot of my statement necklaces recently, it's not my first choice in the summer heat, but I have been missing them so gave this one another wear. It's a pretty close match to the magenta of the Edie bag too!

Wore this for a normal busy mum day - helping out in my son's class in the morning, a trip to the library and the playground with my youngest, and sports in the evening after school pickup. There was a nice breeze so this maxi skirt with knee high slits was a good choice!


Last worn: black and white striped tank, magenta statement necklace, navy maxi skirt, studded sandals, Rebecca Minkoff magenta Edie bag.

Other ways to wear: black and white striped tank and blazer, navy maxi skirt and leopard print, studded sandals and little black dress, Rebecca Minkoff magenta Edie bag and kimono.

Perfect for pregnancy: studded sandals in second trimester.

Rebecca Minkoff Edie and Love Bag Comparison

What I wore:

Necklace: Colette tortoise shell acrylic disc tassel necklace
Tank: Jeanswest 'Josie' striped back strap tank
Skirt: thrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Love cross body bag in grey

Why I wore it:

Surprisingly I hadn't worn this striped tank and ochre maxi skirt together before! Such a simple combination and a nice way to hit 30 wears with this tank! I recently posted all 30 ways I've worn this striped tank.

This was again a nice simple outfit for a busy day, with the school run and working from home. I felt my Rebecca Minkoff Love bag was due another wear so I got it out, even if it only went as far as between the car park and school and kindy!

I've worn this tortoiseshell tassel necklace with the ochre skirt before, I like the colour combination, and this necklace looks great with stripes too for a little extra print mix.

Last worn: white striped tank, tortoiseshell necklace, ochre maxi skirt, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff quilted Love bag.

Other ways to wear: white striped tank worn 30 ways, ochre maxi skirt and navy tee, Rebecca Minkoff quilted Love bag worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: white striped tank in second trimester, Rebecca Minkoff quilted Love bag in third trimester.

How You Can Wear It:

With a plain, block colour maxi skirt, a striped tank is a great pairing for a little extra interest with your outfit. Nice and cool for a hot summer day too!

The Magnificent 8: Pearls!

Time for another Magnificent 8 post! Every quarter we pick a theme and all style it in our own unique ways, showing you different ideas to try across multiple age groups. Because you can be stylish at any age! 

Our theme today is pearls. I have a few pearl accessories I like wearing a lot when the weather warms up, and it's been a very hot spring so far! Sharing two different outfits I've worn recently, a casual outfit with real freshwater pearls and a more dressed up one with faux pearls.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Eliza summer poncho in yellow floral
Necklace: Roie Designs long freshwater pearl necklace with tassel
Tee: Atmos&Here charcoal grey v neck tee
Shorts: Jeanswest Tessa olive embroidered shorts
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB Camera Bag in almond

Why I wore it:

This freshwater pearl necklace is a firm favourite and is one I constantly wear on repeat! It's been worn over 34 times since I bought it. I love the long length and the mix of textures with the leather tassel and the coin pendant. It just goes with everything and is a great touch with a casual outfit. Freshwater pearls are perfect for a casual outfit, you don't have to dress up in pearls!

The olive embroidered shorts are so nice to wear in summer, being a soft pull-on style. I like wearing them with yellow and this yellow printed kimono is such a summery combination. As the kimono is so bold I went with a classic neutral grey tee as a base, and a tan bag. Even if this little Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag does struggle to fit both my things and my son's water bottle we brought along for our little walk on our fave trail after the school pick up!

Last worn: yellow kimono, pearl tassel necklace, grey tee, olive embroidered shorts, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag.

Other ways to wear: yellow kimono and printed tee, grey tee and maxi skirt, olive embroidered shorts and stripes, Converse and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag and floral dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: grey tee in third trimester, Converse in second trimester.

My Rebecca Minkoff Handbag Collection:

---

What I wore:

Earrings: Juicy Couture bow stud earrings
Necklace: Roie Designs faux pearl and black satin ribbon necklace
Dress: Jeanswest 'Chantelle' crochet detail blue printed maxi dress
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs silver tuxedo flats
Bracelets: the usual plus faux pearl bracelet stack
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

This is a slightly more dressed up outfit - although still just as comfortable for a hot and humid day! This time around I accessorised with some faux pearls. This necklace is fun and it ties with a long black ribbon in the back, so very comfortable to wear in spring and summer! I added the faux pearl bracelet stack too, again to try make my casual jersey maxi dress seem a little more pulled together. We had a playdate with one of my son's friends from school, which was really good. I'd expected to have more playdates this year but the virus has made it tricky!

With the faux pearls and blue printed maxi dress I wanted to add a little extra colour so I went with this Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag in magenta. It really pops with navy and I like how the quilted style makes the outfit a little dressier too.

Had thought about wearing sandals with this but as all mine have buckles and I wasn't sure on the "shoes in the house" policy at my son's friend's place I decided on these silver slip on ballet flats instead so I could easily remove them if needed. I've worn them a lot with this dress in the past, it's a nice combination, especially with the silver hardware on the bag.

Last worn: blue printed maxi dress, faux pearl necklace, faux pearl bracelet stack, silver ballet flats, Rebecca Minkoff Edie Bag.

Other ways to wear: blue printed maxi dress layered with a knit, silver ballet flats and printed skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Edie Bag in the office.

Perfect for pregnancy: blue printed maxi dress at 39 weeks, silver ballet flats in third trimester.

How You Can Wear It:

Pearls are a really versatile accessory! Real or faux they are so easy to add to an outfit, no matter your style. You can try a necklace, bracelets, or even earrings and you can get pearl embellished clothing too!

Weekday Wear Link Up! Stripe Tee Dresses, Converse, and Pink Rebecca Minkoff Bags

Two very similar outfits for today's Weekday Wear Linkup, even though I wore them a week apart! Pairing striped tee dresses with Converse, pink Rebecca Minkoff bags and statement necklaces for easy working from home and school run style.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted gold and cream multi strand pearl necklace (new purchase)
Dress: thrifted Kmart white and navy long sleeve stripe tee dress (new purchase)
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC

Why I wore it:

Was excited to wear this dress for the first time, and a slightly cooler spring day was the perfect opportunity! I'd just bought it at the opshop the week before for $1. The necklace was thrifted in the same trip for $2 as well and they work really nicely together. The Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag was a preloved eBay find at just $29.75 so that leaves the Converse shoes as the most expensive piece in my outfit! I bought them over a decade ago though so don't remember exactly how much they cost.

The striped dress was so stretchy and comfortable for a day of working from home and doing the school run - and it looked nice and presentable for a zoom call too!

Last worn: white Converse all star, neon pink mini MAC bag. First time I've worn the dress and necklace as they are recent purchases.

Other ways to wear: white Converse all star and maxi skirt, neon pink mini MAC bag with monochrome black outfit.

Perfect for pregnancy: white Converse all star in second trimester.

My Rebecca Minkoff Handbag Collection:

---

What I wore:

Necklace: Jeanswest Taki necklace (c/o)
Dress: Atmos&Here navy stripe tee dress 
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

This navy striped tee dress is the reason I knew I had to buy the white striped tee dress! I really like this one and while it's a thicker fabric and so worn more on cooler days it's a firm favourite of mine. Really similar to the white one above too! Just a different hem and shorter sleeves, and of course a darker colour.

I accessorised this in a very similar way, with a pink Rebecca Minkoff bag, the Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody this time, and another statement necklace. Again this was a work from home outfit, as well as doing the school run and taking my son to an appointment in the afternoon. Another comfortable outfit for sitting at my desk all day working after running around dropping the kids to school.

Last worn: navy stripe tee dress, statement necklace, black Converse all star, Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag.

Other ways to wear: navy stripe tee dress and ankle boots, black Converse all star and tee dress, Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: navy stripe tee dress in second trimester, Converse in third trimester.

---

How You Can Wear It:

A striped tee dress is a classic and comfortable option! For days with the kids, pick one with a longer hem like the white one in the first outfit, or a dipped hem at the back like the second one. Because stripes go with everything you can add some fun statement accessories like a bright pink bag or a layered necklace.
