Denim Shorts Outfits! #ShareYourShorts

Summer shorts outfits! I had this post scheduled and then I came across the Mystery Case #ShareYourShorts summer challenge on instagram thanks to the lovely KimbaLikes. A very fitting post to have lined up. Shorts are a wonderful summer (and spring!) option. I am definitely a shorts fan, one of my pregnancy wardrobe essentials was my Jeanswest maternity shorts!


Here's what I wore to run some errands:

Sunnies: Rayban new Wayfarers
Necklace: House of Harlow sunburst necklace in silver and grey
Tank: Jeanswest 'Rowena' print tank
Shorts: Jeanswest black denim cuff shorts
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC with python embossed leather in aquamarine


I really liked this outfit! I just love this top, despite only having worn it three times before . Although I can't remember what outfit I had in mind, I do remember being just a smidgen upset when the growing baby bump meant I couldn't wear this tank one day during my pregnancy. It lead to a "I have nothing to wear" rant/meltdown, fuelled by pregnancy hormones and being overemotional! My wardrobe was fun to play in, but also a bit challenging when pregnant. This top ended up buried at the back of my wardrobe and got a little bit forgotten as the bump grew even bigger. I was happy to find it and pull it out again post-baby, as it didn't get a good run when I first bought it last year.

Didn't have anything special planned for the day, I just had to pick up a few things at Woolies quickly in the morning, and then had some tradies round at the house. We are trying to get quotes for some work, which is taking longer than usual as I try to schedule things around baby T's unpredictable nap times. Thought this necklace was nice with the top to add an extra little bit of interest. It didn't stay on long though, took it off when we got back home after the grocery run.


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarer, printed tank, denim shorts, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC.

Here's what I wore to spend the day with my mum:

Scarf: Alexander McQueen skull scarf in light blue
Top: Atmos&Here navy stripe v-neck tee
Shorts: Jeanswest printed denim shorts
Shoes: Acne pistol boots in "skin"


The day I wore this the weather was so weird. It had been really hot and humid for days, then the rain came in to cool things off quite a bit. I wasn't sure if it would heat up later so I ended up with the rather strange combo of shorts, a tee, scarf and boots. My reasoning was that it would not be hot enough for the boots to be a silly choice, I could just take off the scarf if I got too warm.

Of course, boots were a silly choice as the day ended up being just as humid as every other day that week....but I was able to take the scarf off! Colour-wise it was a good outfit at least, I do love blue. Spent the day with my mum, we had lunch and picked up a few last minute things for a party on the weekend. No bag, I just carried everything I needed in the baby bag.


Last worn: skull scarf, striped tee, printed denim shorts, Acne Pistol boots.

Grey Tees, Striped Maxi Skirts Outfits, ASOS Sale Code

Twice in a row, wearing grey tees and striped maxi skirts! Created two slightly different outfits despite following the same formula.


Here's what I wore to spend the afternoon with family:

Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers
Tee: Atmos&Here grey v-neck tee with rolled sleeves
Skirt: AT by Atmos&Here Mars striped maxi skirt
Shoes:  black slim Havaianas thongs


Grey tee and maxi skirt - a wonderful outfit combination! This is something I quickly put on when hubby got a call and announced we had some unexpected visitors on their way, while we rushed around trying to clean up the house a little more, hehe! I paired this maxi skirt with a grey tee last time I wore it too, but it seems to go perfectly with anything I wear it with. Both these pieces are definite keepers.

I did wish I'd worn a necklace with this, the low neckline is so pretty with a necklace, but I didn't think about that until after I saw the pictures. Did leave baby T one less thing to grab though, which was nice.


Last worn: Ray-ban Wayfarers, grey tee, striped maxi skirt, Havianas.

---

Here's what I wore to go out to the post office with baby T:

Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers
Tee: Jeanswest rolled sleeve grey marle tee
Skirt: thrifted black and white pleated striped maxi skirt from AWLQ jumble sale
Shoes:  black slim Havaianas thongs


I liked the striped maxi, grey tee combo so wore it again! This time half-tucking my shirt on the side instead of in the front, for a bit of a different look. I have a tiny torso as I'm petite, so I half-tuck my clothes a lot, I just don't think I've tried it to the side like this before. Not sure if I'll wear it like this again, as I was tugging at it a bit through the day, but it was good to be a little bit different in the way I wear my tops.

This Jeanswest tee hasn't been worn in 3 years! It's coming up to my 3 year 'blogiversary' in January, and I was taking almost daily photos for a while before blogging. I can't find when I wore it last, so I am fairly certain it's just been sitting there unworn for that long. It's survived multiple wardrobe clearouts, as every time I looked at it I could never throw away a good grey tee that "I wear all the time". Ha! Funny how I can still be surprised by the unworn items hanging in my wardrobe. No reason this grey tee shouldn't get as much wear as the others, it's cute and comfy. It's staying in my wardrobe, but I'm going to make an effort to wear it more. Perhaps the over abundance of grey tees I own is the reason this one hasn't popped up in the rotation yet....which is another problem...... ;)


Last worn: Wayfarer (see above), striped maxi skirt, Havaianas (see above). First time I've worn this old tee on the blog.


I do like to share a good sale with you! I've always got a list of great sales and discount codes on the blog, but wanted to post about this too as now is the perfect time to shop. You can get an extra 10% off already reduced sale items at Asos with code '10MORE'.

Good and Bad: Wine Tee, Printed Skinny Jeans | Stripes, Owl Print and Maxi Skirt

Two very different outfits to share today! One that I loved, and one that was more comfortable than photogenic.


Here's what I wore to have a visitor over:

Tee: Atmos&Here rolled sleeve oversized tee in wine
Jeans: Sass and Bide 'The Archetype' feather print zippora skinnies
Shoes: Wittner 'Bolla' black bow detail flats


Nice casual jeans and tee outfit! I knew I wanted to wear these fun printed jeans, but I couldn't decide on a top. I've worn them with black and grey before, but wanted to try something a little different. Ended up picking this lovely burgundy tee, a different colour combination to what I'd normally go for. I think it worked quite well colour wise, and I love the slouchy tee with the fitted jeans. Would be so happy to wear something like this every day, one of my favourite outfits!

I was at home most of the day as I had someone over, and I only really went out to walk Cooper so I didn't need any extra layers to keep warm. Which was a good thing, as I'm really not sure what scarf or jacket would have looked nice with this! Used up all my thinking power wondering if burgundy and yellow would go nicely together ;)


Last worn: burgundy oversize tee, Sass and Bide zippora, black ballet flats.

Here's what I wore to go to the doctors:

Scarf: Liquorish owl print scarf in grey (on sale!)
Top: Atmos&Here 3/4 sleeve stripe tee in berry white (on sale!)
Skirt: Jeanswest plain jersey black maxi skirt (on sale with extra 40% off!)
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black


Bit of a cooler day with some rain, so I layered up for a short trip out to the doctors with baby T. I've paired this scarf and skirt together before, on an outfit I wasn't completely happy with after looking at the photos. Wanted to try the combination again though, as it is incredibly comfortable!

Thought that it may look better with a slightly more fitted tee underneath, but after reviewing the photo, I'm thinking again that it's not the best combination. I do prefer this outfit over the previous time, but I think the scarf and the skirt together just have too much volume, what do you think? Maybe best to keep the big blanket scarves to outfits involving jeans.


Last worn: owl print scarf, striped tee, jersey maxi skirt, Converse.

Jeanswest Maternity Denim Skinny Jeans in Third Trimester and 40% Off Sale

Here's what I wore on Tuesday:

Shirt: 'Ninja baby' maternity skeleton tee
Jeans: Jeanswest maternity super skinny jeans in antique blue
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus Hermes Kelly double tour bracelet in rubis
Bag: Marc By Marc Jacobs Classic Q Fran bag with gold hardware in carob brown


Wore my ninja baby tee to the OB's office on Tuesday, as I thought she would get a giggle out of it. She did, and so did the receptionist. Our next appointment is actually on baby's due date, so I wanted to take the chance to wear the tee to Tuesday's appointment in case baby shows up early. It's looking like baby wants to stay in longer than planned at the moment though, so on the plus side I'll probably have more chances to wear this fun tee :)

Incredibly similar to the last time I wore this tee, just with different accessories.


Last worn: ninja baby tee, maternity skinny jeans, Havaianas, Marc by Marc Jacobs Fran bag.

---

Here's what I wore today:

Necklace: custom Cooper charm by Silhoupette
Tee: Atmos&Here oversized stripe tee
Jeans:  Jeanswest maternity skinny jeans in black
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus beaded turquoise and silver bracelet stack
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC with python embossed leather in aquamarine


Jeans and a tee again today! Added a bright bag for a bit of colour. I love these stretchy oversized tees, I have a handful of them and they are perfect. They drape so nicely without the bump, and yet they are oversized and baggy enough to still fit the baby bump at 38 weeks.

Thought that my maternity wardrobe would look a lot like this and that I'd be wearing jeans and tees more often, based on what my wardrobe was like before pregnancy. My regular wardrobe definitely has more jeans than skirts! I've favoured maxi skirts and dresses more, maybe because of the hot temperatures. These jeans are great though, really comfortable and I've never even considered trying another brand of maternity jeans as the Jeanswest ones are perfect for me.

Jeanswest have another 40% off sale at the moment - online and in store, and it includes already reduced sale items!


Last worn: Atmos&Here stripe tee, black maternity jeans, Havaianas (see above), Rebecca Minkoff aqua mini MAC.

Non-Maternity Clothes in Third Trimester: Dresses and Leggings and Sales!

Here's what I wore to spend the day with my sister on Friday:

Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers
Necklace: gold heart shaped necklace layered with vintage gold initial necklace
Dress: Zara printed bib front tunic dress
Belt: Kmart thin gold glitter belt
Leggings: Cotton On
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus Disney Couture Winnie the Pooh bangle
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Swing bag in canary yellow


On Friday my sister and I went into the city for lunch, shopping, and to check out the Reebonz handbag sale at the Hilton. Although I fell in love with a Balenciaga tote bag (out of my budget now with baby on the way) and a Marc by Marc Jacobs wallet (vetoed by my sister as she didn't like the colour) we left the sale empty handed.

Was still a great day though. We had fun shopping after lunch, and had dinner and watched a movie in the evening. Not entirely sure why Queen Street Mall had these decorated horses, but lined up with the tourists to have my photo taken anyway. Something a little different!

This was a nice simple outfit, good for walking around all day, and the dress accommodated both the baby bump and all of the delicious food we ate! Had been wanting to try pair this tunic dress with leggings since I worried it was getting a little short in the second trimester with the bump in the way. Pleased I got a chance to give it a try in the third trimester, was much more comfortable with the leggings underneath.


Last worn: Ray Ban Wayfarer, printed Zara dress, gold glitter belt, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff yellow Swing bag.

Here's what I wore today:

Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers

Leggings: Cotton On
Shoes: Cotton On thin strap thongs in black
Bracelets: the usual plus two metal and fabric Roie Designs bracelets
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Swing bag in canary yellow


Enjoyed the dress and leggings combo yesterday, so wore it again today for a relaxing day. Didn't need a belt though as this dress has it's own built-in belt attached :) Spent some time with the in-laws, they've picked their "grandparent names" for baby to call them. Baby will be extremely lucky and spoiled by both sets of grandparents.

It's currently the Memorial Day weekend in the US, so there are a lot of sales online. I've listed a few below, and I always keep the sales and discounts list up to date as well.

Marc By Marc Jacobs Ukita Bag, Third Trimester Pregnancy Work Wear

Here's what I wore to work on Thursday:

Top: Asos textured knit jumper in cobalt blue
Skirt: Asos maternity tartan check pencil skirt - on sale! (non-maternity version here)
Shoes: Nine West fascinate ballet flats in silver glitter
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs Little Ukita bag in Rock Lobster


After wearing a lot of black, white and grey, I felt like some colour so I paired this cosy knit with the tartan pencil skirt and a bright bag. I really liked this bag with blue last time I wore it, so wanted to try it again.

This is quite a thick jumper so I don't wear it often, but I adore the colour every time I do. Almost a year since I last wore it, wow! Should make more of an effort to wear it over the upcoming cooler months.


Last worn: cobalt blue knit, Asos maternity pencil skirt, glitter flats, Marc by Marc Jacobs Ukita bag.

Here's what I wore for casual Friday today:

Tee: 'Ninja baby' maternity skeleton tee
Jeans: Jeanswest maternity super skinny jeans in antique blue
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs studded mouse flats in grey
Bracelets: the usual plus beaded neon and gold and black and gold bracelet set and Disney Couture Winnie the Pooh bangle
Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs Little Ukita bag in Rock Lobster


Emotional day today! My last day at work for a while, I have now officially commenced my maternity leave. Just had to wear the ninja baby tee as I knew everyone would get a giggle out of it. There was a morning tea in baby's honour and I got so many lovely gifts from my colleagues. It's sad to be leaving a large project right in the middle of everything, but I'm really looking forward to getting to spend time at home with baby. The last few days at work have been really tough and it will be good to have some rest before the due date.


With the cooler weather we've been having lately, just had to share that Jeanswest have an extra 30% off sale items - including some winter knits! Ends Sunday night.

Last worn: ninja baby tee, Jeanswest maternity skinny jeans, studded mouse flats, MbMJ Ukita bag (see above).

Balenciaga Blue Day Bag. Zara Blazer, Grey Tee, Asos Pencil Skirt | Pink Blush Maternity Dress, Leopard Print Scarf

Here's what I wore to work on Tuesday:

Jacket: Zara frayed basket weave cardigan in blue
Necklace: custom Cooper charm by Silhoupette
Tee: Spectrum basic v-neck tee in grey marl
Skirt: Asos graphic print pencil skirt - on sale! (maternity version here)
Shoes: Wittner 'Bolla' black bow detail flats
Bracelets: the usual plus Balenciaga coated stud wrap bracelet in icy blue
Bag: Balenciaga giant hardware Day bag in 2009 tempete


Grey tee and pencil skirt for a nice easy work outfit. Added the cosy jacket to keep me warm in the morning, as it's starting to get a little chilly. I think it dressed up the tee and skirt combination nicely too. And because I'm still feeling unimaginative with wardrobe options, my Balenciaga day bag again, haha! It's great that this bag goes with so much, as I'm wearing it with everything!

Think the photo doesn't do this outfit justice - I felt really great in this, but I was in a bit of a rush taking photos.


Last worn: Zara blazer, grey tee, Asos maternity pencil skirt, Wittner flats, Balenciaga tempete day bag.

Bag: Balenciaga giant hardware Day bag in 2009 tempete

Simple dress for work. I love how easy maternity dresses are to wear! Wanted to be warm so added a big cosy scarf. Almost disguises the baby bump.

Wasn't too sure about the burgundy and blue together at first, but I think it looked okay in the end. What do you think?

Balenciaga Tempete Day Bag Again. Jeanswest Tie Dye Maxi Dress, Knot Detail Top, Maternity Skinny Jeans

Here's what I wore on Sunday:

Necklace: House of Harlow sunburst necklace in silver and grey
Dress: Jeanswest 'Elodie' tie dye grey jersey maxi dress
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus Balenciaga classic double tour bracelet in pearly grey
Bag: Balenciaga giant hardware Day bag in 2009 tempete


Nice relaxed outfit for a very relaxed Sunday. Had my first (and definitely not last!) pregnancy massage. I'd been thinking about splurging on one, and when we went to our classes last week the midwife strongly recommended it. So glad she did, gave me the push I needed to book one. Could not rate it highly enough, it was wonderful.

Had such a lazy afternoon afterwards, and Church Online in the evening. A comfortable maxi dress was perfect, and I tied my hair back in a messy bun again as it was a bit humid in the morning before the storm rolled in.


Last worn: tie dye maxi dress, Havaianas, Balenciaga tempete day.

Pants: Jeanswest maternity skinny jeans in black
Shoes: Nine West fascinate ballet flats in silver glitter
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga giant hardware Day bag in 2009 tempete


Carrying my Balenciaga day bag again! I really do love this bag! When I first got it I wore it for 3 months straight....it's just such a nice bag to wear.

No Cooper in the photos today as he didn't want to step outside in the rain! It was a little chilly and rainy this morning, so jeans seemed like a good option to keep me warm. Have noticed I've been wearing a lot of blacks and greys lately - just easier to wear and pair with things when I'm running out of clothes that fit an outfit ideas ;) I'm getting very unimaginative at 34 weeks pregnant. Thankful for the blog, I can get inspiration from other pregnant ladies and it gives me a little incentive to try wearing different things rather than just wearing the same thing every day. Handbags excluded!


Thank you to everyone who bid on my auctions in my ebay wardrobe clear out. Only 2 handbags left for sale, both open to offers!


Last worn: grey knot front top, maternity skinny jeans, glitter flats, Balenciaga tempete day (see above).

Black, White and Grey With Bright Balenciaga Bags - Maxi Dress, Tee and Pencil Skirt

Here's what I wore for Easter Monday:

Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers
Necklace: custom Cooper charm by Silhoupette
Dress: Pearl black and white jersey maxi dress
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus gifted gold bangle set
Bag: Balenciaga envelope clutch in 2012 mangue with giant 12 RGGH


We had a birthday/Easter lunch at the in-laws on Monday. A maxi dress seemed like a nice choice, especially with the heat! Thought that the bright clutch was a nice addition to balance out the black and white of the dress.
I have some more colourful maxi dresses that I could have worn, but not all of my non-maternity maxi dresses fit in the third trimester. Part of the reason why I bought another one on Saturday ;)


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarers, printed maxi dress, Havaianas, Balenciaga envelope clutch.

Here's what I wore to work today:

Bag: Balenciaga RH classic city in 2010 sorbet


Back to work today! A short 3 day working week due to the public holidays. A lot of people took the 3 days off to make a long Easter break, but hubby and I are saving our leave for baby's arrival. Just a simple pencil skirt and tee combination to be comfortable. Very similar combination to the last time I wore this tee! I've said it before, but the relaxed 'business casual' environment at work has made it easy for pregnancy dressing. It's good I can still wear tees and pencil skirts, even if the tees are being stretched to the limits at the moment!

I took the time last week to list some items on ebay in an attempt to make more space at home after my wardrobe clearout - checkout my auctions. Selling a mix of clothes and even handbags too. Everything ships internationally :)

Skirt: Target grey marle maxi skirt
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs

Nice casual comfortable outfit to work from home and attend a doctor's appointment on Tuesday. This stripe tank is one of the bargains I picked up in the last 40% off Jeanswest sale. They have another sale on at the moment too...and I bought more things... I can't resist the sales, I should subscribe from the emails! The scarf was a good addition for a bit of print mixing and to keep me warm as it was a little chilly in the morning.


Last worn: purple leopard print scarf, grey maxi skirt, Havaianas, Balenciaga sapphire city. first time I've worn the tank as it's a recent purchase.

Bracelets: the usual plus purple Salvatore Ferragamo 'Vara' leather bow bracelet (25% off with code with code 'INTHEFAMILY14')
Bag: Balenciaga purple RH city in 2008 sapphire


Are you sick of this dress yet? haha! I'm not! I'm planning to wear it every week for the rest of my pregnancy, it's just such a good maternity work wear option. Had a big meeting this afternoon so I felt appropriately dressed.

Added some colour with the shoes, bag and scarf as I don't tend to wear a lot of colour with this dress and wanted to change that. The scarf is a new purchase from Reebonz a while back to use up some more of my credits, bought in anticipation of the weather cooling down! I can't even resist sales when the items are for another season!

And yet more sale talk.... the ShopBop friends and family sale is on now! 25% off everything - including sale items! - with code 'INTHEFAMILY14'

Last worn: Soon Maternity wrap dress, cap toe flats, Balenciaga sapphire city (see above). First time I've worn the scarf as it's a recent purchase.

Bag: Balenciaga classic work in 2006 Rouille


Had a meeting with my manager today but still kept my outfit simple and comfortable - tee and pencil skirt! I wanted to recreate this entire outfit again, but decided I could make it look just a little different if I swapped out the tee ;) With the size of my wardrobe I certainly wasn't spoiled for choices for another top to wear, haha!

Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga classic work in 2006 Rouille


Another pencil skirt and tee combo! Loved it pre-pregnancy, love it still during pregnancy. I'm lucky to have a very relaxed business casual workplace so I can wear tees to the office Monday to Thursday. That's made maternity dressing a lot easier. I think if I had to wear business professional every day I would have had to invest in some key maternity pieces like suits and work pants, which would have been trickier to find.
I thought the embroidered detail on this top worked well with the print on the skirt, but it doesn't show up well in photos. Did forget how badly this shirt wrinkles with the bump though, felt a bit sloppy by the end of the day!


Last worn: embroidered top, Asos maternity pencil skirt, Wittner black flats, Balenciaga work (see above).


Asos currently have a sale on at the moment, and you can get an extra 20% off sale with promo code 'YES20'! Great time to buy :) Ends 16th April.
