2 Outfits With Luna Blue Edie Shoulder Bag Worn With Pink

Two outfits with my Rebecca Minkoff Luna Edie shoulder bag worn with pink. Pink skirt in the first outfit, and pink jeans in the second. Both of these outfits were worn for working from home days.


What I wore:






Jacket: Jeanswest navy suede moto zip jacket
Necklace: handmade pink and white polymer clay beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Country Road grey crew neck tee
Skirt: thrifted Rama Boho Fashion pink and orange floral print button up midi skirt (new purchase)
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
BagRebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue


Why I wore it:

Both the tee and skirt are opshop finds! I thought the plain grey tee would be a good pairing with this bright and colourful pink and orange floral midi skirt, it's a nice neutral to balance out all the colour. it was still a cooler day so I layered up with this Jeanswest navy suede moto jacket. The Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag I picked because while I was working from home I did have the school run and a physio appointment to attend. This bag fits all my essentials plus had room for my latest library read while I was waiting for my appointment.

With the pinks in the skirt, I couldn't resist adding a little more pink with the accessories, with the pastel pink Converse and the pink beaded necklace I made. I liked all the different shades of pink in this outfit.


Last worn: navy suede moto jacket, Country Road grey tee, pink handmade necklacepink Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag. It's the first time I've worn the floral skirt as it's a recent opshop find.

Other ways to wearnavy suede moto jacket and dress, Country Road grey tee and wrap skirt, pink Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie shoulder bag and jeans.






What I wore:



JacketRebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Necklace: handmade blue, green and black beaded necklace
TeeCotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Jeans: thrifted Zara pink frayed hem skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue


Why I wore it:

Just like when I wore the outfit above, this was another working from home day. I went with my comfortable go-to for working from home days, with jeans and a tee. I made it a little more colourful with the pastel blue tee and the pink frayed hem jeans. I liked the two light shades of pink and blue together. I did have to layer up a little, so I wore this cosy Rebecca Minkoff knitted ruana poncho, perfect for keeping me warm on the school run and when the kids had sports in the evening.

Again I had another appointment during the day, the doctors this time, so I wore the Luna blue Edie bag again to put my latest book inside.

I thought the clay necklace would look good with this outfit, with the blue and black being similar to the blue bag, and tee and knitted poncho, but I think maybe a different necklace might have worked better with this, maybe something longer. Still, a good outfit for a quiet day.

Printed Tees, Dusters, Skinny Jeans and Converse

Warmer spring weather in Brisbane means I'm wearing more of my lighter layers more often, like both of these neutral duster cardigans. Wearing them with black skinny jeans, printed tees, colourful Rebecca Minkoff bags and Converse.


What I wore:






Jacket: Ripe longline grey cardigan
Earrings: Colette Sangria sunset disc stud tassel earrings
Necklace: layered silver necklaces
TeeSass and Bide 'New Day Rising' tee in orange leopard print
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip


Why I wore it:

Very colourful outfit for working from home, with the school run and a couple of errands in the afternoon. Jeans and a tee is a staple for me on working from home days, and I felt it had been a while since I wore this Sass and Bide neon orange leopard print tee so it was good to get it out again. The neon orange tee and the matching earrings added some colour to the grey cocoon duster cardigan and black skinny jeans, and then I added more colour with the little yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag. I like the combination of yellow and orange together.

Had the comfortable Converse for a little bit of running around with the errands and the school run, and the neutral brown was a good choice for this outfit.


Last worn: grey cocoon cardigan, neon leopard tee, neon earrings, zip detail skinny jeans, brown Converse, yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip.

Other ways to weargrey cocoon cardigan and skirt, neon leopard tee and shorts, zip detail skinny jeans and knit jumper, brown Converse and maxi skirt, yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip and dress.






What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted TEMT long black duster cardigan (new purchase)
Necklace: silver knot necklace
Teethrifted navy stripe Coca-Cola logo tee
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAC redyed with Angelus hot pink leather paint


Why I wore it:

This outfit is a similar formula to the last one above, but a lot darker with the black duster, black skinny jeans, and matching black Converse. The printed Cocoa-Cola logo tee adds a little extra colour with the red logo print, but I still felt this outfit was a bit dull so I added this neon pink Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC I redyed myself. It was the perfect pop.

I needed something comfortable so that's why I went with jeans and a tee and Converse again. The boys sports club had an outdoor fundraising event in the evening, but during the day I went down to set up. I didn't need this duster during the day, it warmed up nicely, and I thought it would keep me warmer in the evening as well, although by 9pm I was wishing I'd picked something a bit cosier to wear! It was a good night though, and this was nice and comfortable for helping with the setup and practical for attending the event later in the evening - just a shame it wasn't a little warmer. Not bad for the first wear of this black duster I picked up at the opshop though.


Last worn: Coca-Cola logo tee, black skinny jeans, black Converse, redyed pink Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC. It's the first time I've worn the duster as it's a recent opshop find.

Other ways to wearCoca-Cola logo tee and shorts, black skinny jeans and trench coatblack Converse and dress, redyed pink Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC with florals.

Yellow Tees, Black and White Cardigans and Grey Jeans With Rebecca Minkoff Cupid Bag

Adding some colour to jeans and tee outfits lately with two yellow tees. The tees really brighten up these grey jeans, black and white knit outfits for winter working from home days.


What I wore:






JacketRebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Necklace: handmade yellow and white polymer clay beaded necklace
TeeCotton On The One fitted v tee in washed summer mango
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
ShoesAdidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

This Rebecca Minkoff knitted poncho has been a cosy staple over winter, perfect for early morning school runs and for staying warm at my desk when working from home. With the grey jeans, black and white knit ruana and black and white Adidas Superstar sneakers, this was a very neutral outfit. The yellow tee was the perfect pop of colour to lighten it. I went a little matchy-matchy with the necklace too, this one I made recently compliments the tee nicely although it's not an exact shade match with the mango yellow tee.

Carried my big Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag to hold all my essentials plus my latest library read as I had a couple of errands to run after picking up the kids from school in the afternoon, as well as a trip to the library, and wanted a book to read while I was waiting for the kids to pick out the new books they wanted to borrow.


Last worn: Rebecca Minkoff ruana, handmade necklace, mango yellow tee, grey skinny jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag.

Other ways to wearRebecca Minkoff ruana with pink, mango yellow tee and skirtgrey skinny jeans worn 30 ways, Adidas Superstar sneakers and shorts, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag and skirt.






What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted no label black and white leopard print cocoon cardigan
Necklace: thrifted grey and white beaded necklace
Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in elfin yellow
JeansNobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
ShoesAdidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

Another very similar jeans and tee outfit, following the same basic outfit formula with different pieces. Again I wore my Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag, I usually don't carry much on my work from home days but I had a physio appointment during the day and an appointment at the vets in the evening so I wanted to bring along my latest library read to entertain me while I waited for those appointments. Like the outfit above, I paired grey jeans with my Adidas Superstar sneakers, these Nobody Denim jeans are very comfortable. I went with a lighter pastel yellow tee this time, and again a black and white knit with this thrifted leopard print cardigan. Like the thicker chunky knit above, it's nice and cosy on cooler days, and was an easy layer to shed at physio.


Last worn: leopard print cardigan, beaded necklace, pastel yellow tee, Nobody Denim jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers (above), Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag (above).

Other ways to wear: leopard print cardigan and skirt, pastel yellow tee and shorts, Nobody Denim jeans and blouse, Adidas Superstar sneakers and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag and shorts.

Two Ways To Wear: Long Leopard Print Cardigan

I thrifted this long leopard print cardigan last month, and like everything I add to my wardrobe, I set myself the goal of wearing twice in the month I bought it, to make sure it works with my lifestyle. Here are two of the first ways I've worn this awesome leopard print cardigan back in July.


What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted Dotti leopard print long cardigan
Necklace: thrifted pastel pink and wooden hexagon bead necklace
Dress: thrifted Kmart tiered little black dress
ShoesAsos Cleo leather boots in tan
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

This dress is another recent opshop find, I thrifted it and the cardigan together, and I knew they would make a great combination. Just like last time I wore this dress, I found it stuck to the leggings a bit. I am looking forward to warmer spring weather arriving in Brisbane soon, and counting down the days until the end of winter! Leggings aside, I really liked this outfit! I was working from home as I had an appointment and a couple of extra errands to run in the afternoon before school pick up.

This leopard print cardigan and the tall tan boots kept me cosy. I really liked the pink accessories with this too, it's been a while since I've worn this Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody bag so it was overdue another wear.


Last worn: leopard print cardigangeometric bead necklace, black dress, tan boots, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: leopard print cardigan and jeansblack dress and denim jacket, tan boots and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody bag with florals.






What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted Dotti leopard print long cardigan
NecklaceRoie Designs feather, quartz and love charm long necklace
Tee: thrifted Target cotton and modal relaxed red tee
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

This was another working from home day, with the school pick up and then sports in the evening. I needed to be warm for the evening but comfortable during the day, so I layered up my go-to jeans and tee working from home outfit with this leopard print cardigan. I liked the extra print it added to this outfit, and it was nice and cosy for the evening as well, although I did have to add a scarf then. With the black skinny jeans and black Converse, I went with the dark Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag. It's also an opshop find, and is just a really deep navy. 

With all the neutrals, I felt the red tee was the perfect touch of colour with this.


Last worn: leopard print cardigan (above), feather necklace, red tee, skinny jeans, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag.

Other ways to wear: leopard print cardigan and pinkred tee and skirt, skinny jeans and graphic teeblack Converse and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag and dress.

Striped Tees, Maxi Skirts and Leather Jacket With Chloe Bags

Two maxi skirts and stripe tee outfits, layered up for Brisbane's winter with my Jeanswest black leather jacket. Nice and cosy for some working from home days.


What I wore:






JacketJeanswest black leather moto jacket
Earrings: Colette white pearl beaded gum leaf tassel earrings
Necklace: handmade yellow and white polymer clay beaded necklace
Teethrifted Mossimo black and white striped v-neck tee 
Skirtthrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
ShoesAdidas Superstar sneakers
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

I really like the yellow beaded necklace worn with this ochre maxi skirt! I like the colour it added to this darker outfit, with the black leather jacket and the black and white striped tee. I added a little more lightness with the Chloe Ethel bag too, I needed a big bag despite working from home, as I carried a book for an appointment in the morning, after the school run.

It's not the first time I've worn this orange maxi skirt with a striped tee, I like the combination. So much so that I repeated it again a week or so later.


Last worn: Jeanswest leather jacket, gum leaf earrings, black striped tee, orange maxi skirt, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Chloe Ethel bag. First time I've worn the necklace as I recently made it.

Other ways to wearJeanswest leather jacket and dressblack striped tee and jeans, orange maxi skirt and jumper, Adidas Superstar sneakers and jeans, Chloe Ethel bag and pencil skirt.






What I wore:

NecklaceZuriCollections blue polymer clay necklace
TeeCotton On The One fitted v tee in eddy stripe white / red terracotta
Skirt: thrifted Crossroads black ruffle hem maxi skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
BagChloe small Paraty bag in wine purple


Why I wore it:


Another working from home day, in another stripe tee and maxi skirt outfit. With the black Jeanswest leather jacket again, this time matching with the black maxi skirt. Like the maxi skirt above, this one was an opshop find and I really enjoy wearing it! I wore the comfortable Converse as I had a bit of running around to do with the school run in the morning and afternoon. I thought that this rust striped tee was due another wear, and I like the little touch of colour with all the black.

The wine purple Chloe Paraty bag isn't a match with the rust stripes on the tee, but I thought the colours looked nice together, especially with all the black in-between.


Last worn: Jeanswest leather jacket (above), blue beaded necklace, rust stripe tee, black maxi skirt, brown Converse, Chloe wine purple Paraty bag.

Leopard Print Cardigans, Pink Tees and Jeans

Two similar outfits, with thrifted leopard print cardigans, pink tees, black skinny jeans and Converse for some recent working from home days.


What I wore:



Jacket: thrifted Dotti leopard print long cardigan (new purchase)
Earrings: gold heart and pearl earrings
Necklace: handmade purple polymer clay beaded necklace
TeeCle The Label Charlotte tee in ombre rose
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
BagMIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold


Why I wore it:

First time I've worn this cardigan on the blog. it was a very lucky opshop find! I'm always on the hunt for cute cardigans and I've been really lucky recently with finding them! This one is a nice addition to my wardrobe, and I like pink and leopard print together so this ombre pink tee seemed like an obvious choice. I went matchy-matchy with the pink Converse, although it's a different shade of pink from the tee I liked the two pinks together, and I added the purple necklace for a little more colour.

Nice casual outfit for a vet appointment, the school run, and working from home.


Last worn: pearl earringsombre pink tee, black skinny jeans, pink Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag. First time I've worn the cardigan as it's a recent opshop purchase, and first time I've worn the necklace as I recently made it.

Other ways to wear: ombre pink tee and shorts, black skinny jeans and graphic tee, pink Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and skirt.






What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted no label black and white leopard print cocoon cardigan
Necklace: thrifted wood and marble bead thrifted necklace with white string
Tee: Kmart short sleeve cotton modal tee in tulip pink
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

Since I liked the outfit above so much, I repeated the formula again with different pieces. I wore black Converse this time, matching the black skinny jeans and the black background on this black and white leopard print cardigan. like the cardigan in the first outfit, this was also an opshop find! It's nice to have some printed cardigans to add a little extra interest to block colour tees like this pink one in winter. Again I went with a darker bag, this Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag. I was working from home, did the school run, and also had a physio appointment, so this Cupid bag was perfect for fitting all my essentials plus my latest library read.

Red Maxi Skirt and Tee Outfits With Chloe Ethel Bag

Two colourful maxi skirt and tee outfits with leather jackets for some working from home days with appointments to attend. I like wearing maxi skirts in warmer weather, but also enjoy layering them up for winter.


What I wore:






JacketWitchery black belted moto leather jacket
Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings
Necklace: handmade tan and orange polymer clay beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Target cotton and modal relaxed red tee
Skirtno label cream and brown floral print midi skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

I've been wearing a lot of jeans lately so I decided to pull out some of my maxi skirts! This one is so good to wear with plain tees like this recently thrifted red one. I really like the print with block colour tees, although this is the first time I've worn it with red.

Added the brown and khaki Chloe Ethel bag as I felt it complimented the colours in the print of the skirt well, and because it fit all my essentials plus my latest library book read for waiting for a dentist appointment after work and school pickup. As it was a cold winter day, I layered up with the Witchery leather jacket to keep warm.


Last worn: stud earrings, Witchery leather jacket, printed maxi skirt, brown Converse, Chloe Ethel bag. First time I've worn the necklace as I recently made it, and first time I've worn the tee as it was a recent opshop buy.

Other ways to wearWitchery leather jacket and dress, printed maxi skirt and cami, brown Converse and dress, Chloe Ethel bag and jeans







What I wore:






JacketJeanswest black leather moto jacket
Necklace: adjustable coral flat bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Country Road grey crew neck tee
Skirt: thrifted NWT Beginning Boutique Sahara red-orange maxi skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

Another appointment during the day while working from home - physio this time - meant I wore my Chloe Ethel bag again to fit in another book. This outfit is similar to the one above as it's the same bag, a maxi skirt and tee, with a lot of red, but it's got a grey tee instead and an unprinted red maxi skirt. Both the maxi skirt and the grey tee are opshop finds, and I liked wearing them together. As in the outfit above, I needed a little extra warmth so I wore this black Jeanswest leather jacket.

While the coral necklace is a more orange shade than the bright coral red of the maxi skirt, I liked the two paired together, especially against the neutral grey tee.


Last worn: black leather jacket, grey tee, coral necklace, red tiered maxi skirt, white Converse, Chloe Ethel bag (above).

Black Cardigans, Striped Tees, Black Jeans and Converse

Two simple striped tee and black skinny jeans outfits with black cardigans, for winter working from home days with the school run and physio appointments.


What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted Dotti black cocoon cape cardigan
Teethrifted navy stripe Coca-Cola logo tee
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr Q Convertible clutch in electric violet


Why I wore it:

Felt like it was time to get this bag out again! I thrifted it a while back, and bought the metallic chain strap on ebay separately so I could wear it crossbody. It's very smooshy and much bigger than you'd think in photos! It fit all my essentials plus my latest library book, so I could read while waiting at the physio appointment and then later at the vet appointment.

Jeans and tee will always be a working from home staple for me in the cooler weather, especially when paired with a cosy cardigan like this black cocoon one. Like the tee, jeans and bag, the cardigan was an opshop find too, so this is an almost entirely thrifted outfit!


Last worn: black cocoon cardigan, Coca-Cola stripe logo tee, black skinny jeans, black Converse, Marc by Marc Jacobs convertible clutch bag.

What I wore:

ScarfThe Quintessential Cambridge Willow green floral snood
TeeCotton On "The One" fitted v tee in Cole stripe white moonlight
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

This was a colder day than the one above so I pulled out this thicker knit cardigan, it's an old one I've had in my wardrobe for years, since my uni days even! I don't wear it a lot over winter, just on very cold days, so it's stuck around for such a long time!

With the black jeans long black belted cardigan and the navy and white striped tee I felt this neutral outfit needed a little extra colour. The brown Converse were an attempt to be matchy-matchy with the Chloe Ethel bag, even though the shades of brown are slightly different.

I added this green printed snood (infinity scarf) for a little extra colour as well, although I ended up taking it off after the school run as I was warm enough in the black cardigan.


Last worn: black belted cardigan, navy and white striped tee, green snood, black skinny jeans, brown Converse, Chloe Ethel bag.

Green and Grey Jeans and Tee Outfits With Rebecca Minkoff Knit Ruana Poncho

Keeping warm in Brisbane's winter weather by layering up my working from home jeans and tee outfits with this cosy black and white Rebecca Minkoff Ruana. I've been wearing it a lot recently.


What I wore:



JacketRebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
EarringsMichael Hill stud earrings with aqua cubic zirconia in sterling silver
Necklace: thrifted blue knotted beaded necklace
Tee: grey marle pocket tee
Jeans: thrifted ASOS petite green skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe periwinkle small Paraty


Why I wore it:

I was working from home on this day, but first there was a breakfast event at my sons school to attend. It was a bit of a cloudy day and threatening rain, but that made it feel a little warmer so this Rebecca Minkoff knitted cover up was all I needed to layer over my grey tee and green jeans outfit to stay warm. I wear this knit a lot with grey tees, it's a good neutral option. 

I did decide to add more colour to this with the accessories, with the blue beaded necklace (as a recent opshop find), and the blue Converse and periwinkle blue Chloe small Paraty bag. It's a great bag for all the essentials plus a little more.







What I wore:






JacketRebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Earrings: gold heart and pearl earrings
Necklace: handmade silver and gold faux pearl beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton On The one crew tee in green
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
BagMimco black button bag


Why I wore it:

Another green and grey outfit with this Rebecca Minkoff black and white Ruana as a topper! This time it was a green tee and grey skinny jeans with white Converse. I added the beaded necklace for a little extra interest, and I liked how the white string matched the white Converse and the white thread in the knit, and the faux pearls matched the earrings. I've been enjoying this necklace since I made it from leftover beads after trying to repair a thrifted necklace that fell apart.

I had a big bag this time, this vintage Mimco button bag, as I had some documents to carry around. While I was working from home I used my lunch break to attend an appointment that I needed some paperwork for, and this bag fit it all nicely. 

Really appreciated this cosy knitted cover up in the evening too when the kids had sports, it kept me so warm!


Last worn: Rebecca Minkoff ruana (above), heart and pearl earrings, faux pearl necklace, green tee, grey skinny jeans, Converse, Mimco vintage black button bag.
