Jeans and Jumper Outfits With Striped Scarves and Rebecca Minkoff Cupid Bag

It's turning into regular winter weather in Brisbane, where knits are becoming a staple for me! I've paired both of these thrifted knits with some other more recent opshop finds, for some working from home and school run days.

What I wore:

Earrings: thrifted red dinosaur skeleton earrings (new purchase)
Scarf:  Fashion Scarf Girl black and white thick and thin mix print scarf
Knit: thrifted Forever 21 wine ribbed knit jumper
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue (new purchase)

Why I wore it:

The tiny little red dinosaur skeleton earrings are hard to see in these pics but they are oh so cute! I stumbled across them at the opshop the same time I saw this beautiful vintage cupid bag, and I knew my boys would love them. I liked the little pop of red it added to the burgundy knit, even if it doesn't stand out in photos that much.

The burgundy knit was perfect for the early morning school run and staying cosy while working from home. I added the scarf to add a little more interest to the outfit, but but the afternoon, we had a couple of errands to run after school, and I'd decided the scarf wasn't needed after all. I did like the mixed stripes against the burgundy, it just warmed up a lot that afternoon!


Last worn: wine knit, striped scarf, grey skinny jeans, Adidas superstar sneakers. First time I've worn the dinosaur earrings and Rebecca Minkoff cupid bag as they are recent opshop finds.

Other ways to wear: wine knit with skirt, striped scarf with purple, grey skinny jeans worn 30 ways, Adidas superstar sneakers and shorts.

Rebecca Minkoff Cupid Reveal

What I wore:

Jumper: thrifted Valleygirl blue knit jumper
Scarf: Fashion Scarf Girl zesty stripe tassel scarf in pink
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bag: thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue (new purchase)

Why I wore it:

Another thrifted knit, striped scarf and jeans combination! It is just so comfortable for working from home and for doing the school drop off and pick up! While this cobalt knit is a nice way to add some colour to the faded black skinny jeans, the pink and red stripes in the scarf were such a fun pop against the cobalt I couldn't resist picking this scarf to add a little more colour. Unlike the scarf in the first outfit too, this one was needed all day to keep me warm.

Again I went with sneakers, as we had a couple errands to run after school pick up.


Last worn: striped scarf, cobalt knit, faded black jeans, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff cupid bag (above).

Other ways to wear: striped scarf and pencil skirt, cobalt knit and maxi skirt, faded black jeans and printed top.

Perfect for pregnancy:  blue jumper in first trimester.

Black, White and Grey Jeans and Tee Outfits With Pink Accessories | Weekday Wear Link Up

Two cosy jeans and tee outfits for the school holidays. The kids had a very fun week of school holiday adventures planned, and I was working from home.

What I wore:

Jacket: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Necklace: Kmart pink multi-colour beaded necklace
Tee: Jeanswest 'Lucy' colour block tee in grey marle/rosebud
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB crossbody with studs in desert rose

Why I wore it:

First time I've got this cosy knit out this winter, and I was reminded again why I love it. It's basically a big knitted blanket. Perfect for an early morning start, dropping the kids off at school holiday vacation program and then working from home before picking them up in the afternoon. With the grey jeans, white Converse, and black and white knit, this was a little monochromatic. The grey tee does have a fun pink panel on the back but you can't really see that with the knit on top, so I added more pink with this wooden beaded necklace and the Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody bag.

As I was just doing the school holiday program pick up and drop off, and then working from home the rest of the day, this was the perfect bag for the few essentials I needed for that.


Last worn: knitted poncho, grey tee, pink wooden bead necklace, faded black jeans, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff MAB crossbody.

Other ways to wear: knitted poncho and stripes, grey tee over maxi dress, faded black jeans and blazer, white Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff MAB crossbody and denim skirt.

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

Rebecca Minkoff Studded MAB Crossbody Reveal:

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Kmart striped maxi cardigan
Necklace: thrifted Mix Apparel clover designer inspired necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton on grey tunic tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB crossbody with studs in desert rose

Why I wore it:

This was a very good day! I didn't start work until later in the day, so after I dropped the kids off at their school holiday program I had an opportunity to stop in at the opshop on my way home. I stumbled across some Rebecca Minkoff bags which was the highlight of my week! The volunteers were quite entertained by my excitement as I tried on the bags before picking one to buy!

Having planned to go to the opshop on my way home from dropping off the kids, I picked this thrifted grey tunic and silver necklace to wear. I always like wearing thrifted pieces opshopping, although I'm aware it doesn't really bring me any more luck than if I didn't wear thrifted pieces, never hurts to try! Certainly seemed to have worked in this case, I was really pleased with my Rebecca Minkoff find at the opshop!

I thought that the black and white striped duster was a good topper over this grey tunic and the grey skinny jeans - the stripes added more interest, and just as it did in the outfit above, the Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody bag added a little more colour too. I really like the desert rose shade with grey.


Last worn: striped duster, silver necklace, grey tunic, grey skinny jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff MAB crossbody (above).

Other ways to wear: striped duster and skirt, grey tunic and shorts, grey skinny jeans worn 30 ways, Adidas Superstar sneakers and maxi dress, Rebecca Minkoff MAB crossbody and leopard print.

Perfect for pregnancy: striped duster in second trimester.

Pink Jeans and Peplum Tops

Felt like I hadn't worn these black peplum tops for a while, so go them out again to wear with some pink jeans and leopard print outfits. Accessorised both with cosy cardigans for winter and for comfort while working from home.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Dotti black cocoon cape cardigan
Necklace: blush pink and gold beaded tassel necklace
Tank: Kmart black sleeveless frill hem peplum tank
Jeans: Portmans pink leopard print skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB crossbody with studs in desert rose

Why I wore it:

Taking advantage of the winter school holidays, the kids had a fun day out with my mum while I got to enjoy the peace and quiet working from home. It worked out so well as I had a meeting filled day, and I didn't have to worry about noise in the background!

Did have to pop out in the morning between meetings for a quick errand, but otherwise wanted to be comfortable for sitting at my desk all day. I liked all the different shades of pink with this, with the leopard print jeans, studded MAB crossbody bag and the pastel tassel necklace. I wasn't too sure if the black peplum tank and black cardigan were too similar to wear together, being identical shades of black, but I think they balanced out all the pink nicely, especially when paired with the black Converse sneakers.


Last worn: cocoon cardigan, pastel tassel necklace, peplum tank, leopard print jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody.

Other ways to wear: cocoon cardigan and denim skirt, peplum tank and pencil skirt, leopard print jeans and purple, Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody and floral dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

---

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted no label black and white leopard print cardigan
Necklace: thrifted flat peach statement bead necklace
Tee: thrifted black and white space dye peplum tee

Jeans: Sass & Bide The Winning Day Lovestate jeans in magenta
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey

Why I wore it:

Another pink jeans and leopard print outfit for another working from home day. I had to take the kids along to a school holiday program in the morning and pick them up again in the afternoon, so again I went with the practical Converse sneakers for the little bit of driving. Unlike the first outfit, I stuck with one shade of pink with these magenta jeans which are a firm favourite of mine in the cooler weather. I wasn't sure if the leopard print cardigan was too much with the space dye print on the peplum tank, but decided to give it a go as I thought the patchy print was a good pairing. I'm not sure I would wear this again, but I'm glad I gave it a go for something different.


Last worn: leopard print cardigan, orange necklace, peplum tee, magenta jeans, Converse (above), Rebecca Minkoff MAM.

Other ways to wear: leopard print cardigan with white jeans, peplum tee with red, magenta jeans and blue knit, Converse and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff grey MAM worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester, Rebecca Minkoff grey MAM in second trimester.

Red Tees With Black, White and Grey | Weekday Wear Link Up

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up I'm sharing more dark denim outfits I wore recently. I added a little colour with a couple of red tees, and extra interest with some black and white prints.

What I wore:

Jacket: Kmart striped maxi cardigan
Necklace: thrifted gold large double circle necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Emily cotton v-neck tee in coral
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere

Why I wore it:

Skinny jeans, tee and a duster (particularly this black and white stripe duster!) has been a staple for me over the past couple of weeks, so it was the obvious choice for a day off work where I got to tag along as parent helper on my son's school excursion. 

I needed something practical and easy to clean so these jeans were perfect, as was the Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere bag. I love that it's waterproof, perfect for running around with a class on kids on a rather messy field trip. It nicely fit inside some lunch and a water bottle for myself too.

While the official colour name of this tee is coral, it's a really red based version of the shade, and I liked how it lightened up this outfit with all the neutrals.


Last worn: black and white striped duster, gold circle necklace, coral tee, grey skinny jeans, Converse, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere.

Other ways to wear: black and white striped duster and skirt, coral tee and shorts, grey skinny jeans worn 30 ways, Converse and midi dress, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere and maxi skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere in third trimester.

What's In My Louis Vuitton Speedy Bandouliere:

---

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted no label black and white leopard print cardigan
Necklace: Roie Designs long freshwater pearl necklace with tassel
Tee: Jeanswest Emma woven trim tee in terracotta
Jeans: Nobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere

Why I wore it:

Since I liked the red, black and white combination so much in the first outfit, I repeated it again a few days later, with a different red tee, and a leopard print cardigan instead of some stripes. This cardigan is the perfect light knit for keeping me warm in the colder morning school run, but not overheating in the afternoon, when we had a couple of errands to run after school pick up.

I went a little matchy-matchy with the pearl necklace and the Adidas Superstar sneakers matching the white in the cardigan. And although I didn't need to carry a lot with me on this day to work from home and do the school run, this Speedy bandouliere with the crossbody strap was so practical I wore it again.

Last worn: leopard print cardigan, red tee, pearl and tassel necklace, grey jeans, Adidas Superstar, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere (above).

Other ways to wear: leopard print cardigan and dress, red tee and Bermuda shorts, grey jeans and blazer, Adidas Superstar and maxi dress, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere in third trimester.

Band Tees and Maxi Skirts With Turquoise Balenciaga First Bag

While I have been favouring my jeans so far this winter, I do enjoy wearing my maxi skirts in the cold weather too! Layered up these two maxi skirts recently with some band tees, and a pop of colour with my Balenciaga first bag.

What I wore:

Jacket: Cotton On girlfriend denim jacket in whitehaven
Tee: Kisschasy United Paper People 2023 tour band tee (new purchase)
Skirt: Noisy May long denim maxi skirt
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India

Why I wore it:

This band tee is a new wardrobe addition! I was so sad when Kisschasy did their final tour a few years ago, but they reunited for a series of gigs this year and I unfortunately couldn't make it. When they put the merch online though I knew I had to grab a tee to add to my Kisschasy band tee collection!

With the double denim of this chambray maxi skirt and white denim jacket outfit, I think the bright red and yellow in the graphic print really popped. Wore the Balenciaga Blue India first bag for a little extra colour, even though the outfit didn't really need it. Comfortable Adidas Superstar sneakers too for the school run, working from home and a little driving around after school pick up to run errands.


Last worn: white denim jacket, chambray maxi skirt, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Balenciaga first bag. First time I've worn the tee as it is a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: white denim jacket and sundress, chambray maxi skirt worn 30 ways, Adidas Superstar sneakers and stripe dress, Balenciaga first bag and shorts.

What's In My Bag: Balenciaga First

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Witchery black belted moto leather jacket
Tee: Kisschasy The Final Roar band tee
Skirt: thrifted Crossroads black ruffle hem maxi skirt
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
Bag: Balenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India

Why I wore it:

This was a much colder winter day than the one above! Similar routine, with the school run and working from home, and also a little trip to the vets for Cooper. As it was a bit chillier than I had expected, but I'd already planned out this outfit to wear, I just added this cosy leather jacket on top instead of the denim jacket I had planned. It made for a very neutral outfit, with the black and white printed band tee and the black leather jacket, black maxi skirt, and black ankle boots. I think that the Balenciaga first bag really shines here as a great pop of colour!


Last worn: Witchery leather jacket, Kisschasy Final Roar band tee, black maxi skirt, black ankle boots, Balenciaga first bag (above).

Other ways to wear: Witchery leather jacket and leopard print, Kisschasy Final Roar band tee and jeans, black maxi skirt at Disney, black ankle boots worn 30 ways, Balenciaga first bag and floral dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Kisschasy Final Roar band tee in second trimester, black ankle boots in second trimester.

Black Jeans and Burgundy Bag With Printed Layers

Two more black denim outfits - I have been loving my jeans with the cooler winter weather! Both of these are accessorised with my burgundy Rebecca Minkoff Avery crossbody bag, and some printed layers to add a little extra interest to basic outfit formulas.

What I wore:

Jacket: Kmart striped maxi cardigan
Necklace: Lovisa wooden statement bead necklace
Tee: Atmos&Here rolled sleeve oversized tee in wine
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Avery crossbody bag in burgundy

Why I wore it:

I thought that the burgundy Rebecca Minkoff avery bag would go nicely with this purple tee - it really seemed to bring out the purple in it! As I've mentioned before, it's one I'm trying to hit 30 wears with although the spandex in it that made it so soft and stretchy is starting to show its age. It definitely needs to be worn with a cover up on top, so the black and white striped duster was perfect. I added the wooden necklace too, I really like this statement piece but don't wear it nearly enough!

With the faded black skinny jeans, these Converse All Stars are a staple, perfect for a quiet day with the school run and working from home, before a special dinner with the family in the evening.


Last worn: black and white striped duster, purple tee, wooden statement necklace, faded black skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff burgundy Avery bag.

Other ways to wear: black and white striped duster and dress, purple tee and skirt,  faded black skinny jeans and blazer, Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff burgundy Avery bag and mustard dress.

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

Rebecca Minkoff Avery Crossbody: What's In My Bag

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Cotton On Leah kimono in Juddy floral cerise
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
Tank: Jeanswest Maji metallic tank in soft green and silver
Jeans: Nobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Avery crossbody bag in burgundy

Why I wore it:

Another work from home and school run day meant another sneakers and black jeans outfit! With the silver tank and the black skinny jeans, this was a pretty monochromatic outfit. I thought that the floral waterfall cover up was a fun way to add more colour and interest to the outfit, although I do wish the navy necklace had matched the blue in the floral print a little more, the shades were quite different.

I ended up really liking the burgundy bag with this too! I haven't tried burgundy and magenta together before, but gave it a go as it meant I could reuse the bag from the day before and didn't have to swap anything out. Time is of the essence trying to get everyone up and ready for school in the mornings!


Last worn: floral cover up, navy necklace, metallic silver tank, Nobody Denim skinny jeans, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff Avery crossbody (above).

Other ways to wear: floral cover up and scarf, metallic silver tank and shorts, Nobody Denim skinny jeans and blazer, Rebecca Minkoff Avery crossbody and little black dress.

Skinny Jeans, Blouses and Chloe Paraty Bag For The Office | Weekday Wear Link Up

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up, I'm sharing another two outfits I wore to the office recently. Both are on the casual side of business casual. Taking advantage of the ability to wear jeans on a weekday, with my darker denim and some pretty blouses.

What I wore:

Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace layered with Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Blouse: Jeanswest Chana long sleeve stud top in night sky navy
Jeans: Nobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe periwinkle small Paraty 

Why I wore it:

A little trio of blues here with the periwinkle Chloe Paraty, blue Converse Chucks, and the navy blouse. This blouse is a firm favourite for office wear, even before the pandemic, and it was nice it was cool enough to get it out again. With the silver studs on the blouse I went with layered silver necklaces. I thought they fitted nicely with the neckline of the top, even though the hardware on the Chloe Paraty is gold. I don't mind mixed metals.


Last worn: navy blouse, Tiffany notes necklace, Tiffany heart necklace, Nobody Denim jeans, blue Converse, Chloe Periwinkle small Paraty bag.

Other ways to wear: navy blouse and pencil skirt, Nobody Denim jeans and blazer, blue Converse and denim dress, Chloe Periwinkle small Paraty bag and shorts.

What Fits Inside A Chloe Small Paraty Bag:

---

What I wore:

Blouse: Jeanswest Frankie soft blouse in berry
Jeans: Nobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Chloe small Paraty bag in wine purple

Why I wore it:

Another office day and another dark denim, Converse and blouse outfit! I do like pairing this berry blouse with jeans, and I've worn it with these Nobody Denim siren skinny jeans before. For something a little different this time I tied up the neckline, although between the bow and my hair you can't really see the cute ruffle neck too well. It meant I didn't have to pick out a necklace, so a really quick way to get dressed in the morning!

I liked the different shades of blue in the first outfit with the navy blouse and lighter periwinkle Paraty, so I tried two similar but different shades again with this purple Paraty against the berry blouse. I really liked this, although I feel the purple bag makes the blouse seem more red than it is in person, when it's more of a pinky-red.

Again I wore Converse. With winter weather they aren't the most popular shoe choice for all the ladies in the office any more - starting to see more boots. I still love how comfortable they are for commuting in though, not ready to give them up just yet!

Last worn: berry blouse, Nobody Denim jeans, black Converse, Chloe small purple Paraty bag.

Other ways to wear: berry blouse and maxi skirt, Nobody Denim jeans and cardigan, black Converse and skirt, Chloe small purple Paraty bag and floral dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: black Converse in second trimester.

2 Ways to Wear: Orange Sherbet Zoe Tiered Maxi Dress in Geranium Print Pink

I picked up this beautiful Orange Sherbet Zoe tiered maxi dress at Gladrags Markets recently. It's been on frequent repeat since! The trio of friends running a stall let me try on a few of the pretty dresses that they had for sale, and it was so hard picking just one, but I'm so pleased with this. I do love a floral print dress, and the pinks and red in this dress work so well together! As it is winter I have had to do a little layering with this short sleeved dress.

What I wore:

Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Dress: Orange Sherbet Zoe tiered dress in geranium print pink
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus Mimco gunmetal twisted bracelet stack
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff quilted jumbo Love bag in cobalt

Why I wore it:

I love pink and blue together, so a classic indigo wash denim jacket and cobalt Rebecca Minkoff jumbo love bag seemed like the perfect accessories to try out with this dress. I love the bright cobalt blue of the bag against the red and pink geranium print on the dress. And a classic denim jacket like this goes with everything! You can see 30 ways I've worn this denim jacket here.

The Mimco bracelet stack was also a bargain find from Gladrags Markets, and I liked having a bracelet stack on each arm. Picked my comfortable Adidas Superstar sneakers to wear as we had a kids birthday party at an indoor play area to enjoy that morning.


Last worn: denim jacket, Tiffany necklace, Mimco bracelet stack, Orange Sherbet maxi dress, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff jumbo Love bag. 

Other ways to wear: denim jacket worn 30 ways, Orange Sherbet maxi dress with white jacket, Adidas Superstar sneakers and denim skirt, Rebecca Minkoff jumbo Love bag and jeans. 

Perfect for pregnancy: denim jacket in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Witchery black belted moto leather jacket
Necklace: adjustable coral flat bead necklace
Dress: Orange Sherbet Zoe tiered dress in geranium print pink
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC

Why I wore it:

This is actually the first time I wore this dress. It was a really cold morning, with the school run and then working from home, so the perfect opportunity to wear some of the new pieces I'd picked up at Gladrags Markets that weekend. I got this coral necklace for just $2! I like the colour with the floral print on the maxi dress, even if it isn't a perfect match to the red or pink. The leather jacket was a super cosy and super cheap buy from the markets too - beautifully preloved, it's so comfortable, and I was very grateful for it and the ankle boots on this chilly day. I had a slip on under the dress as well!


Last worn: Witchery leather jacket, coral necklace, Orange Sherbet maxi dress (above), black ankle boots, Rebecca Minkoff silver mini MAC.

Other ways to wear: Witchery leather jacket and knit, black ankle boots worn 30 ways, Rebecca Minkoff silver mini MAC and band tee.
