Graphic Tees & Skinny Jeans: Working From Home Style | Weekday Wear Link Up

Keeping it simple for my working from home style during isolation, with graphic tees and skinny jeans. Both of these jeans are extremely comfortable, perfect for sitting at my computer and yet practical for jumping up every few minutes to help the kids with their online learning, or to get them yet another snack 😂

What I wore:

floral kimono, mickey mouse graphic tee and skinny jeans | away from the blue

JacketCotton On 'Gemma' cocoon kimono in Laos blossom navy print
TeeUniqlo Mickey Mouse 'Mickey Stands' short sleeve graphic tee
JeansNobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas

Why I wore it:

It's crazy to think I first wore this tee a year ago when we were in Disneyland Paris, as part of our Europe trip. Seems like a lifetime ago now, especially with all the changes around the world and the travel restrictions. It was fun to wear this again, I did the cliche "get everyone Mickey tees to wear to Disneyland" thing and I wasn't sure how much wear it would get afterwards but I have worn it a handful of times. Much more than I expected. It's super soft and has such good memories attached.

The floral kimono was needed in the cooler morning, as it was a bit of a dressier option than my usual dressing gown for staying warm! I did end up taking it off at lunchtime though.

Really liked how this outfit turned out - the high amount of stretch in these Nobody denim skinny jeans make them so comfortable to wear!


Last worn: floral kimono, Mickey Mouse tee, Nobody Denim skinny jeans, Havaianas.

What Bag I'd Wear With These Outfits:

While I'm at home my bags are staying in my wardrobe, but if I was wearing these outfits outside the house I'd wear this bag with them. It's the perfect neutral.

Tee: Kisschasy blue tape band tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Vicki skinny pant in moss green
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas


Why I wore it:

Another pair of super comfortably jeans, I actually wore these on our long-haul flights from Brisbane to Europe last year - very comfortable for being at home. Again, it was nice to get out of the pyjamas and loungewear I've been wearing a lot lately while isolating at home with social distancing.

This Kisschasy tee hasn't got a lot of wear - it was from one of their earlier tours, but after Jess had a challenge to wear band tees it got me going through my big box of tees from concerts I went to pre-kids and I found this. I realised this should come into my regular wardrobe, it's fun to wear. I like how the lighter blue went with these olive skinny jeans too! I've worn them a lot with navy in the past, it's nice to try a different shade.

How You Can Wear It:

A graphic tee is a wardrobe staple and looks great with any colour of denim, as you can see here with these different jeans. Isolating at home make sure you pick jeans with a lot of stretch to help you feel pulled together but not uncomfortable!

Weekday Wear Linkup: Maxi Skirts and Leopard Print Tees

Simple work from home style for today's Weekday Wear Link Up! Wearing the last things I thrifted before the opshops shut down due to coronavirus, these beautiful maxi skirts. With them being plain block colours I decided to wear my leopard print tees with them. Such easy outfits, but I felt really pulled together!

What I wore:

Sass and Bide 'New Day Rising' tee in orange leopard print with navy thrifted maxi skirt | awayfromblue

awayfromBlue Instagram | SAHM work from home isolation style neon leopard print sass bide tee with navy maxi skirt thrifted
Necklace: Lovisa blue leaf long necklace
TeeSass and Bide 'New Day Rising' tee in orange leopard print
Skirt: thrifted navy viscose drawstring no label maxi skirt
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas

Why I wore it:

This Sass and Bide neon leopard print tee is a favourite, it's one I don't frequently wear but every time I do I love it! It's a cropped style, which means it's just a normal length on my petite self, and so I didn't tuck it into the skirt at all, just left it loose. It was a hot day although it's autumn in Brisbane and this was a cool and comfortable outfit to wear. I really liked the orange leopard print with the navy maxi skirt too, navy and orange look so good together.

Two bloggers I follow, Sheila and Ivana, recently wore similar outfits too! Definitely a great silhouette.

The only thing that didn't go so well with this outfit was that it got covered in chalk when the boys did some chalk art in the afternoon. Getting dressed for isolation at home with a 4 and 5 year old is tough as my clothes never stay clean long, ha!


Last worn: neon leopard print tee, leaf necklace, thrifted navy maxi skirt, Havaianas.

Wardrobe Tour (And Handbag Storage!)







What I wore:

kmart statement necklace and grey leopard print tee outfit with ochre maxi skirt | away from the blue

awayfromtheblue Instagram | workign from home isolation outfit leopard print tee ochre maxi skirt affordable kmart thrifted style
Necklace: Kmart gold and navy beaded necklace
Tee: Kmart grey leopard print tee
Skirt: thrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas

Why I wore it:

This is such an affordable outfit! The ochre maxi skirt was an opshop bargain at just $4, I picked the leopard print tee up for just $2 at Kmart and the necklace is Kmart too! Not wearing my bags every day has highlighted to me how affordable my wardrobe really is - if you don't include the designer bags! 😂

I liked the leopard print tee and the skirt together, but the outfit felt like it was missing a little something. This necklace was the perfect topper, and just like the outfit above while it was quick to pull together it helped me feel a little more dressed up. I don't always wear proper clothes when I'm working from home, there's a lot of loungewear or pyjama days in isolation, as I mentioned above it's hard to justify a nice outfit when the kids will mess it up before the end of the day. But it's a good change to wear proper clothes when the in laws come to visit or when I know I have a few meetings!


Last worn: grey leopard print tee, blue and gold beaded necklace, ochre maxi skirt, Havaianas (above).

How You Can Wear It:

A leopard print tee is a fun twist on a basic tee. You can keep your outfit simple and let the tee be the star by picking a block coloured maxi skirt. Denim works equally well too!

22 Ways To Wear A Grey Tee: Weekday Wear Link Up

For today's Weekday Wear Linkup I'm sharing a bright and colourful outfit I wore to work from home, and sadly the last wearing of this grey tee, so I'm looking back at the 22 wears I managed to get from it!

What I wore:

work from home colourful style with magenta skinny jeans grey tee and floral navy kimono | awayfromblue

awayfromblue Instagram | navy floral cocoon blanket kimono with grey tee magenta skinny jeans
JacketCotton On 'Gemma' cocoon kimono in Laos blossom navy print
Necklace: Uniquely Made with Love Sea Change necklace
Tee: Atmos&Here grey v-neck tee with rolled sleeves
PantsSass & Bide The Winning Day Lovestate Jeans in magenta
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas

Why I wore it:

I adore this tee - so much so that I bought it in three colours! I have a burgundy one, this grey one and a black one. The black one has already left my wardrobe, I was hoping to get this grey tee to 30 wears but this last wear just confirmed to me it's stretched out just like the other black tee, sadly!

The super soft and stretchy fabric has elastane in it, which while making it very soft also doesn't survive a lot of heavy duty washes (and during breastfeeding a while ago I had to wash everything at 60℃, breastfeeding mums will know the pain!). This tee was frequently worn then but seemed to be coping much better than the black one and keeping its shape well. Until I realised I was constantly tugging and pulling at it all day, even though I wasn't doing anything too adventurous and just working from home. I'm sad it's left my wardrobe after just 22 wears, but it did last longer than the black version and it was my own fault not caring for it properly!

Issues with the tee aside, I really liked this outfit! In the cooler morning and with a video call booked in for work, I swapped my usual stay at home loungewear for this slouchy tee and the colourful but cosy floral kimono. I love how the navy with the pink flowers went with the magenta skinny jeans!


Last worn: floral kimono, beaded necklace, grey tee, Havaianas, Sass and Bide magenta skinny jeans.

22 Ways To Wear A Grey Tee


Much like the time I showed you 30 ways to wear a (different) grey tee, I wear this a lot with denim! I was hoping to hit 30 wears with this tee but it was just too annoying to wear - I like comfortable clothes, I don't like to be pulling or fussing with what I wear! I also don't like worrying about the neckline creeping down when I'm on a work call!

I got it on sale for $17.46 from The Iconic, back in 2014 when I could never resist an Atmos & Here sale at The Iconic! It's definitely my most worn of the three colours I have this tee in, even though it didn't hit my goal of getting worn 30 times. It works out to 79 cents a wear, which isn't too bad, but I really wish I'd got more wears from it!

Here are some of the ways I styled it over the years:


Grey Tee and Blue Denim

5 ways to wear a grey tee and blue denim | awayfromtheblue

The most classic outfit you can ever have - a grey tee and blue denim. Shorts jeans, a grey tee works in all seasons. And you can always add a necklace, bag or kimono (or all three!) for a little extra colour.


Grey Tee in Monochrome Outfit

3 grey tee monochrome outfit ideas | away from blue

Such a simple way to wear a grey tee - just add something black like a skirt or jeans, and you have an easy monochrome outfit. Adding a bright necklace or bag is a good way to introduce a colour pop if you don't want to stick to just black and white.



Grey Tee and Colourful Pants

5 ways to wear a grey tee and colourful pants | awayfromtheblue

Of course it's not just blue jeans a grey tee works with! I liked wearing this grey tee with my more colourful jeans and pants, the neutral goes with any colour.


Grey Tee and Print Mixing

3 print mixing outfit ideas with a grey tee | away from blue
Taking advantage of this neutral grey tee as the base of an outfit, it lets me add in brightly coloured scarves and even a little bit of print mixing! From the subtle striped cardigan and leopard scarf, or the bolder chevron jeans and magenta skull scarf, the grey tee is a great backdrop for a mix of prints.



Grey Tee and Maxis

grey tees and maxi skirt 6 mum style outfit ideas | away from the blue

A grey tee is as much of a staple in my wardrobe as maxi skirts. It's an easy outfit for a warmer day, this grey tee goes with any colour or print of skirt. I've even layered it over a blue maxi dress before too, as you can see at the bottom there.

Weekday Wear Link Up: Tee Dresses and Rebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford Bag

I've found an outfit uniform for the rare times I have to leave my house to get the essentials, and I'm sticking to it! One pair of shoes that never go in the house, a bag that is also outdoor use only and not touched otherwise, no accessories other than my usual bracelets that never come off, and a dress so that when I get home I can just throw it in the wash. Plus it feels nice to dress up a little for the rare occasions I do get out the house!

Luckily I have a few dresses to wear so it won't get too boring on the blog...

What I wore:

atmos & here floral print tee dress with navy Rebecca Minkoff micro bedford crossbody bag sneakers | away from blue

floral tee dress with Rebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford zip satchel in twilight | away from blue

Atmos & Here willow printed tee dress and Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford | away from the blue Instagram
DressAtmos & Here Willow printed tee dress
ShoesNew Balance white and blue sneakers
BagRebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford zip satchel in twilight

Why I wore it:

This tee dress is a favourite and was on frequent repeat when I first got it. As my son got older though I realised that maybe anything shorter than a maxi was a bit of a struggle to wear around kids, and it hasn't gotten a lot of wear recently. I last wore it on an anniversary weekend away with my husband, last year! It always makes me smile when I wear it so should definitely be worn more - even if I need to keep it to days like this where I'm not out with the kids!

I headed out early, as I had to go to the doctors, get pet food for the dogs and get groceries. I figured it was best to do everything at once to minimise the amount of time I was out! Thankful that hubby is working from home too so I can leave the kids with him.

I really liked the little Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag with the colours in the print of the dress. This bag just happened to be the one I'd worn out a lot as I was frequently wearing it as the newest addition to my handbag collection, and it as things began to change I realise it didn't make sense to keep changing bags as often as I usually do, to avoid spreading germs around.


Last worn: floral tee dress, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford.

Other ways to wear floral tee dress worn as a top, Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy floral tee dress in second trimester.


Story Time: My Coach Wallet Broke!




A bit of a diversion from coronavirus, sharing the story of what happened when my coach wallet broke last year, and when going into the store to get things fixed was still a possibility. All the Coach stores in Australia are now closed.




What I wore:

DressCotton On 'Tina' white striped tee dress in Lissy black / Gardenia
ShoesNew Balance white and blue sneakers
BagRebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford zip satchel in twilight

Why I wore it:

Exactly the same outfit as the one above with a small modification - this dress is striped instead of a floral print 😂

Wore this to go grocery shopping, just 7 days after the outing above, but things had changed so much! There was a limit on the number of people allowed in store, there were big plexiglass screens around the cashiers, and I discovered that it's not possible to both load groceries out of the trolley onto the belt and pack them into bags at the other end of the checkout at the same time, since the cashiers aren't packing bags any more. I think I'll get better at it as time goes by, although I'm kind of hoping I don't have to get used to it for too long!


Last worn: striped tee dress, New Balance sneakers (above), Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford (above).

How You Can Wear It: 

A tee dress is such a comfortable, easy outfit and perfect for early autumn days like these when it's not too cold. For a sporty look (or if you have a knee injury like I do!) you can wear a pair of sneakers. Makes an even more comfortable outfit!

Striped Tees and Shorts To Stay At Home - Weekday Wear Link Up

Usually in April I'd be wishing for the autumn weather to finally arrive, but I'm not complaining that the temps are still in the 30s (86 F) as it means I can dress super simply at home, in just shorts and a tee. The boys are enjoying being able to play in our back yard during our isolation so much too!



What I wore:

thrifted navy stripe Coca-Cola logo tee with black denim shorts stay at home mum isolation style | awayfromblue


Tee: thrifted navy stripe Coca-Cola logo tee
Shorts: Jeanswest Sara distressed hot short
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas

Why I wore it:

Simple shorts and tee outfit for a hot day! I had a zoom call with some Insta ladies in the morning that was fun, before I had to quickly sign off when a tradie arrived at the house. We had a driveway visit from people with gifts for the boys as well. It was so funny, me asking them if the boys could come out the house (to stand 1.5 meters apart of course!) and them asking us if we were okay with that! We are all figuring out social distancing still.

It had been a bit of a stressful week with working at home and looking after the kids, so I was really looking forward to this day where I didn't have to work and could just teach the kids and relax and play together. Hubby went and did the grocery run too so I didn't have to deal with that stress!


Last worn: coca cola logo tee, black denim shorts, Havaianas.

Other ways to wearcoca cola logo tee worn two ways, black denim shorts and kimono.


The Bag I Would Be Wearing If I Wasn't At Home:




If I wasn't at home all day I think I'd be wearing this cute little Rebecca Minkoff micro Avery bag with these outfits! I miss wearing my handbag collection, but aside from the two bags I was using when the new social distancing / stay at home rules came into effect I've left my bags untouched in their cupboard. I don't see the point in getting them out just to snap a pic and put them back away!







What I wore:

Atmos&Here navy stripe v-neck tee with long necklace and distressed denim shorts | away from blue

awayfromblue Instagram | work from home outfit stripe navy tee with distressed denim shorts
Necklace: Happiness Boutique turquoise and coral pendant necklace (C/O)
TeeAtmos&Here navy stripe v-neck tee
Shorts: thrifted Jeanswest distressed denim shorts
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas

Why I wore it:

Wore this to work from home. I've mentioned before that I've stopped wearing necklaces outside - I like to play with them when I'm wearing them and frequently touch them - not a good idea when I'm out grocery shopping and touching all the things and then transferring that to my necklaces! But for a day at home I figured I could accessorise a little. Both the boys and I like playing with this necklace!

My mother in law came over for a visit - despite the "stay at home unless essential visits" rules and my in laws being in the at risk category. I did try protest. We are following all the advice and staying home, as are all of my side of the family, except those who are the real heroes, the essential workers.

Kept it simple with the striped tee and denim shorts - easy and comfortable and a bit more appropriate for having someone over than the pyjamas I wore to work from home the day before 😂


Last worn: navy stripe tee, stone pendant necklace, distressed denim shorts, Havaianas (above).

Other ways to wearnavy stripe tee and olive shorts, distressed denim shorts and kimono.

Perfect for pregnancynavy stripe tee in third trimester.


Striped Tees Under $50:




How You Can Wear It:

Shorts and a tee is a staple outfit for anyone on a warm day! It is such a simple stay at home outfit too. A striped or printed tee adds a little more interest to this classic outfit combo.

Casual and Business Casual Dresses With Balenciaga First Bag : Weekday Wear Link Up

Two very different outfits for today's Weekday Wear link up! Taken just 3 weeks apart in March, the world changed so much in those weeks!

What I wore:

ruffle dress autumn office outfit with grey blazer and turquoise Balenciaga first bag | awayfromblue

Balenciaga first bag in 2006 Blue India | away from the blue

awayfromblue Instagram | grey jersey blazer with berry ruffle dress teal bag colourful autumn office outfit
JacketJeanswest grey jersey blazer
Necklace: Colette marble and gold pendant drop long necklace
Dress: Jeanswest deep pink ruffle neckline dress
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs logo plaque flats in camel
BagBalenciaga first bag in 2006 Blue India

Why I wore it:

This was my last office outfit before things started changing in Australia. At the end of the day I'd packed up my desk and said farewell to my colleagues, reminding them I'd not be in next week as I had a training course, but that I'd be in the next again week. During the week of training there were a lot of massive changes in Australia and at work, and I've not been back in the office since.

I've been working from home for a few weeks now and I'm missing outfits like this - the simplicity of a cute dress and a blazer to dress it up a little for a business environment. I really like this berry dress. Even though it looks red in every picture, it's such a fun dress to wear and I thought the turquoise Balenciaga first bag really popped with it. As the dress and bag were bold I went for neutral accessories with the grey blazer and the tan ballet flats.

Of course now my blazers are hanging unworn in my wardrobe (and I even have a recently purchased one that I've not been able to wear yet) while I work from home and only make trips out for the essentials.


Last worn: grey jersey blazer, berry ruffle dress, marble necklace, camel ballet flats, Balenciaga first bag.

Other ways to wear grey jersey blazer and printed dress, berry ruffle dress and jacquard jacket, camel ballet flats and jeans, Balenciaga first bag and maxi dress.

Perfect for pregnancy camel ballet flats in third trimester.

NecklaceZuriCollections blue polymer clay necklace
DressAll About Eve striped black tee dress
ShoesNew Balance white and blue sneakers
BagBalenciaga first bag in 2006 Blue India

Why I wore it:

This is a much more casual dress outfit. Unlike the first outfit where I was trying to dress up a bit for the office, I dressed down for this outing to the grocery store. I'd picked this fun striped tee dress as it is an easy instant outfit, and easy to remove as soon as I got home, to avoid bringing germs into the house.

The New Balance sneakers actually went really well with this dress to create a sporty outfit! I'd been trying to ease back into normal shoes again but with being unable to travel to my physio safely my knee pain requires me to keep things simple and supportive, so it's back to these shoes. Having them as my outdoor shoe makes it easier to prevent germ spread on the shoe rack too, if I'm just wearing these! It's funny the things we think about now!

The Balenciaga first bag was a fun pop with the black and white dress, and I picked this bag to wear again as I'd worn it on a previous outing - again trying to minimise what items I take outside. I did notice that I kept going to play with this necklace as I walked around the nearly empty shelves at the supermarket, so I'm now doing a no necklace policy when I do venture out. 😂

It's probably a little overkill all of these changes, especially when I didn't even think about these things a few weeks ago back when I was still in the office, but I'm just doing what I can to keep us and the kids as safe as possible.


Last worn: striped tee dress, clay necklace, New Balance sneakers, Balenciaga turquoise first bag (above).
