Colourful Shorts and Cover Ups With White Tees and Converse

Two outfits using the same tried and true outfit formula, with some new pieces I recently scored at the opshop. Colourful shorts, white tees and little crossbody bags with these printed cover ups I thrifted for just $1 each!


What I wore:




Jacket: thrifted no label leopard print cover up with waist tie
Necklace: thrifted gold and cream multi strand pearl necklace
TeeAtmos & Here white essential v-neck tee
Shorts: thrifted pastel pink cotton shorts
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

I like pink and leopard print together, so I added a couple different shades of pink in this outfit to complement the printed cover up! These pastel pink shorts haven't been worn in a while, and with the white tee and neutral leopard print cover up it needed just a little extra colour. The Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody bag in fig pink was a good way to add more colour. even thought the shades of pink are different, blush goes with everything really!

Wore this for a simple working from home day, with the school run and a playdate in the park after school.


Last worn: leopard print cover up, statement necklace, white tee, blush shorts, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff jean MAC.

What I wore:




Jacket: thrifted Shein black floral print cover up
Necklace: Roie Designs multi chain layered beaded necklace
TeeCotton On The One Deep V tee in marle nep white body black
Shorts: thrifted red denim shorts
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Avery crossbody bag in burgundy


Why I wore it:

Another comfortable shorts and tee outfit with a pretty cover up. I liked the bolder colours in this outfit, it was a little more matchy-matchy with the dark floral print matching the red of the denim shorts and the burgundy crossbody bag. And of course plain white tees go with everything! Even added a black chain necklace to match the black background of the floral cover up.

Wore my white Converse again - it was another hot weekend and we had a bunch of errands to run. Converse are good for a lot of driving around.

Navy Tees, Shorts, Prints and Pink Jean MAC Bag

Two simple navy tees and shorts outfits, again with my Rebecca Minkoff fig pink Jean MAC bag. I've really been loving it lately, and the pretty pink shade goes so nicely with navy.


What I wore:

Necklace: Kmart blue multi-colour beaded necklace
TeeAtmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Shorts: thrifted Kmart pastel soft culotte shorts in floral print
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

Needed a nice simple shorts and tee outfit for the school run, working from home, and a physio appointment. This shorts and tee combination was perfect. With the navy blue tee and the pastel blue of the shorts the tri-colour necklace that had similar shades of blue was a great accessory! And I wore this Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag again because I love it with navy. Comfortable Sketchers sneakers for the drive to the physio and for doing all the exercises.


Last worn: navy tee, wooden necklace, pastel print culottes, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC.

Other ways to wearnavy tee and denim skirt, pastel print culottes and cardigan, Sketchers and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC and dress.

Tee: Kmart Dnight navy textured v-neck tee
Shorts: thrifted Kmart turquoise linen shorts

BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

Again, needed a comfortable and simple outfit so wen with shorts and a tee. These turquoise thrifted linen shorts were great in the heat! With the navy tee and turquoise shorts I wanted to add a little extra colour as well, the fig pink Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag was again good for this.  When I saw this cover up in my wardrobe and knew it would be perfect, with the different shades or pink and blue in the print. I liked how well coordinated this outfit was!

Had a couple errands to run in the morning, then had my parents come over for lunch.

Pink Tees Printed Shorts, Cover Ups and Jean MAC Bag

Just like in Monday's post, wearing my little fig pink Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag again, with pink tees, printed shorts, and some cover ups.


What I wore:



Jacket: Target Karolina summer kimono in purple black floral
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
TeeCotton On deep v tee in washed desert rose
Shorts: Jeanswest Parker printed shirred short
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

I really liked how well all the pieces in this outfit worked together! It was a little cold for just shorts and a tee so I thought I'd try this dark floral print cover up. I don't always like when I try print mixing with these black printed shorts, but I really liked the florals with this. I think the matching dark backgrounds worked well.

The pink tee is a firm favourite and always looks good with purple, and even though the navy necklace doesn't match anything in the outfit, again it just seemed to work.

Had a nice day, working from home and a playdate for my son, my friend was kind enough to take him for a few hours so I could get some work done.


Last worn: floral print cover up, navy beaded necklace, pink tee, black printed shorts, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Kmart black and white embellished cover up
Necklace: thrifted wood and marble bead thrifted necklace with white string
Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in azalea pink
Shorts: thrifted Kmart pastel soft culotte shorts in floral print
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

This was definitely shorts and tee weather! I liked the brighter pink of the tee against these pastel print culotte shorts. Needed the sneakers for a bit of a drive, we had a playdate up north to visit a new spot to us but one our friends love visiting. While it was a hot and humid day I had to add a cover up for extra sun protection - I feel this white one worked well, as the embroidery isn't too busy combined with the print on the shorts.

Just like in the outfit above, I wore my fig pink Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag again, it's so good with different shades of pink like this brighter tee.


Last worn: embroidered cover up, wooden necklace, pink tee, pastel print culotte shorts, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC (above).

Other ways to wearembroidered cover up and denim, pink tee and maxi skirt, pastel print culotte shorts and printed tee, Sketchers and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC and dress.

Pink Dresses, Ballet Flats and Pink Bags | Weekday Wear Link Up

Have been really enjoying pink at the moment! My Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody bag in fig pink has been on frequent repeat lately, and in these outfits I wore it with some pink dresses to create these two tonal pink outfits with different shades of pink.


What I wore:




Jacket: Jeanswest Nadine 3/4 sleeve dusky pink blazer
Dress: thrifted no label pastel floral print babydoll dress
ShoesWalnut Melbourne 'Ava' black lizard ballet flats
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

Wore this to the office. I had planned the blazer and dress and bag as I thought all the different shades of pink would look nice with the peachy pink pastel print of the floral dress. I really loved them together, and got a few compliments on this outfit in the office. The blazer and dress are such a good pairing.

I hadn't decided what shoes to wear though and went with the black ballet flats at the last minute. I really wish I'd went with my tan or silver ones instead, I think the black is a little harsh with the pinks in the outfit. But overall, I really liked this outfit, would just try different shoes next time!


Last worn: blush blazer, pastel print floral dress, black ballet flats, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC.

Other ways to wearblush blazer and jeans, pastel print floral dress and leather jacket, black ballet flats and midi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC and stripes.

What I wore:




Necklace: thrifted metallic clay bead necklace
Dress: thrifted Kmart short sleeve godet skirt linen blend dress in fuchsia
Belt: came with dress
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs silver tuxedo flats
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

For a hot spring day, with the school run and working from home on the agenda,. it seemed like the perfect time to get this Kmart fuchsia pink linen dress out again that I thrifted a while back. And just like when I wore the floral dress above, I decided to try the little Rebecca Minkoff fig pink jean MAC crossbody bag with this. I did break away from being completely pink with the blue necklace. And I went with silver ballet flats this time, which I do love a lot more than the black ones I wore in the outfit above, with this dress.

I haven't worn this dress much over the cooler months, although I have tried it in winter before, Now that the weather has warmed up I'm hoping to wear it a lot more often, one of my favourite thrift finds!

Striped Tee Dresses and Pink Crossbody Bag

Sharing two incredibly similar outfits today, with sneakers, striped tee dresses and my little Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody bag. Sometimes when I follow an outfit formula I'll tweak it a little each time I wear it, but these outfits feature such similar dresses they are almost identical!


What I wore:

all about eve black and white striped tee dress with converse and jean mac crossbody bag | awayfromblue

black and white striped dress with pink Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig | awayfromtheblue


Necklace: Kmart silver long circle pendant necklace
DressAll About Eve striped black tee dress 
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual plus turquoise and silver bracelet stack
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

Added a little extra colour to this staple black and white tee dress with the pink Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag, blue Converse and even a little turquoise and silver bracelet stack. Had a busy day with an appointment, the school run, and working from home. Because it was such a hot day and there was a little bit of running around between everything I went with this simple dress. It's a firm favourite of mine as although it's black it's a nice loose fitting shift dress and so it's perfect in the heat!

I thought the colourful accessories were great with the black and white too - all colours work with this dress!


Last worn: black and white striped shift dress, turquoise bracelet stack, circle necklace, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC.

Other ways to wearblack and white striped shift dress and leather jacket, blue Converse and midi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC and monochromatic blue outfit.


What's In My Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC

Necklace: thrifted purple wooden bead statement necklace
DressCotton On 'Tina' white striped tee dress in Lissy black / Gardenia
ShoesNew Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

This was a really hot day - I feel my face shows that well now I've decided to give up the hunt for a good BB cream or tinted sunscreen.😅 All the tinted ones I've tried since my go-to was discontinued are breaking me out. So I'm giving up and just wearing plain, sheer sunscreen. Despite the heat we had a busy day ahead of us, so a simple shift dress was the ideal outfit.

We'd picked a venue and sent our son's party invites out before the big floods hit Brisbane a few weeks ago. So when my friend told me at a playdate our favourite park was closed we were shocked and had to scramble to find someplace new for the party. We went by the park to confirm it was still fenced off and unusable after the floods, and then checked out some other possible party venue parks near us, and of course to let the kids play in the playgrounds! It was tricky as being a party for prep kids we needed toilets in the park as well as a fun playground, and lots of space for all our guests in a covered area for shade. Thankfully we found another park that worked and we were able to let everyone know the change of venue a few days before the party.

How You Can Wear It:

Striped dresses are wardrobe staples! You really can't go wrong with stripes. In neutral black and white, you can add more colour with some brighter accessories as I've done here with the pink crossbody bag in both outfits, and the blue Converse in the first outfit.

Layering Dresses For A Wet Summer

Layering up two dresses a little for some wetter than normal summer days last month, earlier in December. 


What I wore:

white denim jacket blue and pink tiered printed sundress with tan ankle boots pink crossbody bag | awayfromtheblue

blue and pink printed sundress with Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig  | awayfromtheblue

awayfromtheblue Instagram | white denim jacket with blue pink tiered sundress ankle boots wet summer day outfit
 
JacketCotton On girlfriend denim jacket in whitehaven
Necklace: thrifted purple wooden bead statement necklace
Dress: Kmart strappy tiered sundress in watercolour blue and blush print
ShoesAtmos&Here tan Lola leather ankle boots
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

Had to break out the ankle boots as this day was so wet! A little frustrated I didn't get a great pic of this outfit as it was pouring with rain. But I loved the outfit and the ankle boots were a very practical choice!

We had an important appointment for my son in the morning and then I decided to stop at our favourite opshop before I got home too. Regretted my decision to go to the opshop though as the rain got really heavy as I was driving and I ended up leaving the shop empty handed as nothing caught my eye. Luckily the rain had changed to a steady drizzle by the time I left though instead of the crazy downpour that happened while I was driving!

Did love my outfit though, this white denim jacket was a great topper with the blue floral tiered sundress and kept me warm despite all the rain. Although the Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody bag is a different shade of pink from the pastel on the floral print of the dress but I still thought it was a good combination. Just like the lilac necklace that didn't match the dress but was a nice third colour also.





What I wore:

chambray dress with green white floral duster kimono adidas superstar sneakers, rebecca minkoff love too bag | awayfromblue

green floral duster, Rebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather | awayfromtheblue


Earrings: Kmart navy tassel earrings
JacketJeanswest Delilah long line kimono in green floral
NecklaceTiffany diamonds by the yard necklace 
Dress: Jeanswest Rachel Lyocell chambray dress
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
BagRebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather


Why I wore it:

Thankfully I didn't have to drive around in really heavy rain on this day! Although it did rain it wasn't as bad as the day above. Still felt the need to layer up my sleeveless dress a little though to combat the chill when it rained, and this green floral duster was the perfect topper to keep my shoulders and arms warm.

This Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag is such a nice shade of teal and I really like wearing it with green, it works well with the duster. And of course it looks good with the chambray dress too that's the perfect neutral.

Added the navy tassel earrings to dress up my outfit a little, even though I was just a regular day with the school run, sports for the little one then sports for both boys again in the evening. 


Last worn: green floral duster, navy tassel earrings, diamond necklace, chambray dress, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag

Other ways to weargreen floral duster and jeans, chambray dress and magenta bag, Adidas Superstar sneakers and pink dress, Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag and pencil skirt

Perfect for pregnancychambray dress in second trimester


How You Can Wear It:

Denim jackets and duster kimonos are easy, light layers to add to a planned dress outfit when a wet and wild summer makes things a littler cooler than you expected.

Neutral Dresses and Pink Bags - Weekday Wear Link Up

Two more easy outfits for back in the school holidays at the end of September. With the nice weather for quite a few days of the holidays, simple dresses were all that was needed for the warmer days.

What I wore:


black and white striped tee dress with blue skull scarf, Converse and magenta pink Balenciaga day hobo bag | awayfromblue

Balenciaga Day bag in 2005 magenta with black and white striped dress | awayfromblue


ScarfAlexander McQueen skull scarf in light blue
DressAll About Eve striped black tee dress 
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
BagBalenciaga Day bag in 2005 magenta


Why I wore it:

Decided to layer up this dress just a little with the blue scarf. This Alexander McQueen scarf is quite a light one but  was just the perfect light layer for sitting around in the shade watching the kids playing and climbing in the playground. It was a littler cooler than I expected in the morning before it turned into a hot day. Just like the last time I wore this scarf too I couldn't resist going a little matchy-matchy with the blue Converse. I love Converse with this dress!

You might notice that the contrast texture sleeves on this dress don't quite look the same from the last time I wore this dress. The pleather degraded over time (remembering I got this dress second hand from my sister), as pleather doesn't do well in the heat here in Brisbane. I ended up peeling it off the shoulders and keeping the little pleather border on the edges of the sleeves. Doesn't look as good as it did before, but still wearable and I really like this dress and want to keep it around in my wardrobe.

Felt that this beautiful magenta Balenciaga day bag was overdue a wear, it hadn't been used in a while. And it's certainly big enough for snacks and all our water bottles. Even fully loaded like that it was quite comfortable to wear on my shoulder for the little detour we took after the playground to enjoy a dino expo and archaeology activity for the kids before heading home.





What I wore:

grey asos skater dress with pink jean mac crossbody bag and adidas superstar sneakers | awayfromblue

grey dress with Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig pink | awayfromtheblue


Necklace: thrifted Mix Apparel clover designer inspired necklace
DressAsos grey skater dress
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

It was a lot warmer when I wore this outfit so I didn't add a scarf, but looking at the photos afterward this probably could have used a little extra colour from a scarf. I thought the plain grey dress would be a nice backdrop for my recently thrifted necklace, but something a little bolder would have worked a bit better I think. The Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody bag was a nice pop of colour, just feel this looks a little less colourful than the outfit above.

Was very comfortable for a busy day with a doctor's appointment, the library and a trip to the playground. Unfortunately at the playground a little kid learning to ride their bike that hadn't yet mastered the art of stopping or using a brake came right up behind me at full speed while I was distracted with the boys and I have a lovely big bruise on the back of my leg where my leg kindly stopped the spinning wheel. 😂 


Last worn: grey skater dress, clover necklace, Adidas Superstar, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody.

Other ways to weargrey skater dress and blazer, Adidas Superstar and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody and monochrome blue shorts outfit.

Perfect for pregnancygrey skater dress in second trimester.



How You Can Wear It:

A pink bag is a fun pop of colour with a neutral dress. Any shade of pink works well! You can try other colourful accessories like I have in the first pic with the blue scarf and shoes too, or just keep everything neutral like the second outfit and let the bag be the sole burst of colour.

Weekday Wear Linkup: Navy Printed Culotte Shorts Again With Colourful Tees

For today's Weekday Wear Linkup I'm wearing my navy printed culotte shorts again! I have always been a shorts fan in summer but it's been nice to change it up a little from my usual go-to denim shorts. I have been feeling like I've been wearing these shorts a bit much but they are so cool and comfortable for hot summer days, definitely have been a favourite for this summer!


What I wore:

awayfromtheblue Instagram monochrome tee and navy striped culotte outfit with pink jean mac bag

Earrings: Kmart silver leaf drop chandelier earrings
Necklace: Kmart silver long circle pendant necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Shelley garment dye tee in faded denim blue
Shorts: Jeanswest Valerie yarn dye stripe short in navy and white
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:


Wore this for another visit to my parents, we headed over in the afternoon after a quiet morning at home. I wanted to wear some of the new pieces I got for Christmas - the earrings were a stocking gift from Santa, but the necklace, tee and shorts were gifts from my mum. I knew this tee would pair perfectly with the navy striped culottes when I unwrapped it, it's an awesome monochromatic combo!

With the matchy-matchy silver accessories and the monochromatic look with the blue Converse, navy shorts and blue tee, I felt this outfit needed a little something different so I added the pink Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC for a bit of contrast. I didn't have to carry much during the day either so this was the perfect size for just the essentials I needed!


Last worn: silver circle necklace, navy printed culottes, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody. First time I've worn the tee and earrings as they were Christmas gifts.

Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in elfin yellow
Shorts: Kmart culotte short in navy lemon print
Shoes:  New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
BagChloe periwinkle small Paraty


Why I wore it:


Again with a block colour tee and navy printed culottes, although this was a much more colourful outfit than the monochrome one above. Taking advantage of the school holidays I had a fun day out planned, letting my son pick what he wanted us to do for the day. We went on a bike ride in the morning, and then the beach afterwards. It was a really fun day.

This was definitely not the best bag choice for the beach though, an easily wipe-downable tote would have been better. I was a little worried about my new Christmas bag getting wet and sandy. I spent most of my time sitting on the sidelines watching though, aside from a little paddle now and then so the bag was salt water free thankfully.

I really liked how well all of the colours in this outfit worked together. The periwinkle blue of the Chloe Paraty bag is a nice compliment to the blue in the print of the navy culottes. Much like the pastel tee, it isn't an exact match with the colour in the print, but it's close enough that it looks so nice together. 



Last worn: pastel yellow tee, gold and navy beaded necklace, floral print navy culottes, New Balance sneakers, Chloe Paraty bag.

Other ways to wearpastel yellow tee and olive jeans, floral print navy culottes and pink, New Balance sneakers and midi dress, Chloe Paraty bag at Christmas.



How You Can Wear It:


A pair of navy printed culottes are so versatile! You can go monochromatic by pairing it with other shades of blue, or picking some colours out of the print like I have in the second outfit if you want something a little brighter.
