Tonal Denim Skirt Outfits With Printed Cover Ups

Taking inspiration from the colours in these printed cover ups to create some similarly tonal coloured denim skirt and tee outfits to wear with them.


What I wore:






JacketThe Kindness Kimono 'Dream Catch Me' print
Earrings: mini glitter gingerbread earrings
Necklace: thrifted bronze foil statement necklace
TeeCotton On The One fitted v tee in washed red clay
SkirtNobody Denim Piper vacation skirt in black distressed denim
ShoesLes Tropeziennes Par M.Belarbi leopard print and gold leather sandals
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

Felt I hadn't worn this cover up in a while so got it out again for a busy day, working from home with the school run, a couple of errands, and a trip to the vets for Cooper. I like the print in this cover up, and it's not the first time I've worn it with this tee and skirt combination. While the print is orange and red, I like the pairing with the rust tee, it's a nice group of colours. Last time I wore these pieces together I wore a red bag and Converse, this time around I picked out the yellow and khakis in the print and wore my light khaki small Chloe Ethel bag. I needed a big bag for everything I had to carry around for the day, and this bag holds a lot more than you would think!

Because I wore this back at the start of December, I wore my mini gingerbread earrings again. I liked how the brown glitters tied in with the tonal colours in this outfit.


Last worn: mini gingerbread earrings, printed cover up, bronze foil necklace, rust tee, Nobody Denim skirt, leopard print sandals, Chloe small Ethel bag.

Other ways to wearprinted cover up and dress, rust tee and printed shorts, Nobody Denim skirt and sequins, leopard print sandals and dress, Chloe small Ethel bag and midi skirt.






What I wore:






Jacket: Jeanswest Jamie printed kimono
Earrings: gold Christmas present bow hoops
NecklaceZuriCollections blue polymer clay necklace
TeeCotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Skirt: JayJays distressed denim mini skirt
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford zip satchel in twilight


Why I wore it:


Since I liked the outfit above so much, I decided to wear another similar tonal style outfit with the blue denim mini skirt, blue tee, navy bag and blue printed cover up. This was another school run and work from home day, with an appointment for my son in the morning and then a pool playdate in the afternoon. I was tempted to wear my blue Converse with this, but thought it may be a little too much blue, so I went with the white Converse instead, to match the white in the busy tile print of the cover up.

While I really liked all of the blue tones in this outfit I did regret the choice of cover up a little. This is a polyester one and it was such a hot and humid day. I ended up sitting on the edge of the pool and dipping my legs in to keep cool in the afternoon (only the kids had their swimmers) as it was just much too hot to wear polyester. I got splashed quite a few times by the kids playing and jumping in the pool, but honestly I didn't mind, it helped me cool down!


Last worn: earringsblue tile print cover up, blue beaded necklace, pastel blue tee, denim mini skirt, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Bedford bag.

Other ways to wearblue tile print cover up and stripes, pastel blue tee and shorts, denim mini skirt and leopard print, white Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Bedford bag and jeans.

Green and Blue Tee and Midi Skirt Outfits With Mimco Teal Bag

Wearing some midi skirts into the office with blue tees and my little teal Mimco cocoon bucket bag. I like the teal bag with these green and blue outfits, despite the different shades in both.


What I wore:





Earrings: Avocado Santa hat earrings
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
TeeCotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Skirt: Kmart breeze green broderie anglaise midi skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual plus jade bracelet
BagMimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal


Why I wore it:

This pale blue tee feels a littler more casual than a darker navy one, so I did consider adding a blazer to this. Despite the overcast start to the day it was still very humid though, so I decided not to add the extra layer. It was a quiet day in the office anyway.

I did like the paler blue tee against the bright green of the broderie skirt though. I often wear this skirt with blue tones. The blue Converse were a good match with the tee as well, although not exactly the same shade, they are very similar. I added a little more green with the jade bracelet as well. Wore a neutral navy statement necklace to try dress this up slightly for the office, and then my Mimco cocoon bucket bag that's been a real staple lately.



Last worn: pastel blue tee, navy beaded necklace, green broderie midi skirt, blue Converse, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag. First time I've worn the earrings as they were a gift.

Other ways to wearpastel blue tee and shorts, green broderie midi skirt and Christmas tee, blue Converse and dress, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag and pencil skirt.






What I wore:




Earrings: DIY green clay Christmas tree earrings
NecklaceStarfish Project Hannah turquoise bead necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Sophie navy v-neck tee
Skirt: thrifted &Me blue linen button up midi skirt with pockets
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagMimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal


Why I wore it:

Again with the green and a lighter blue! This time around I wore this blue linen midi skirt, with a navy v-neck tee and my green beaded statement necklace for an extra pop of colour. I love wearing this green necklace with navy pieces in my wardrobe, I like the combination. And I really liked this linen midi skirt too. It does get creased up terribly easily, but it is also so light and perfect for a humid spring day. I like that it's also long enough to keep my legs covered up from the freezing aircon in the office.

Just like the midi skirt and tee outfit above, I wore my teal Mimco cocoon bucket bag with this outfit. I've been wearing it with almost everything lately, but I think the dark teal looks so good with blue.


Last worn: Christmas tree earrings, navy tee, green beaded necklace, linen midi skirt, white Converse, Mimco cocoon bag (above).

Other ways to wearnavy tee and jeans, linen midi skirt and printed tank, white Converse and dress, Mimco cocoon bag and blazer.

30 Ways to Wear: Atmos&Here Navy Marle Scoop Neck Tee | Magnificent 8 Restyled

This quarter's magnificent 8 post theme is "restyled" where we will each be rewearing a piece we've worn for previous Magnificent 8 collaborative posts. As I was due to share another 30 wears post, I was pleased to see that this Atmos&Here navy marl scoop neck tee is something I've exceeded 30 wears with, and wore in a previous Magnificent 8 post as well.


30 Ways to Wear: Atmos&Here Navy Marle Scoop Neck Tee


30 ways to wear atmos and here navy marle scoop neck tee awayfromblue



Cost Per Wear

As I've worn this tee 33 times, I was expecting a good cost per wear for it. I actually got it on sale, with an extra coupon code discount, back in June 2016. It was just $8.74, so for 33 wears, that works out at 29 cents a wear, great value indeed. I've also exceeded 30 wears on the chambray maxi skirt I bought in the same sale order, so I've gotten a lot of value from that sale order.

This navy tee has been in my wardrobe for 8 years, so I'm surprised it's not hit 30 wears sooner! It's a great basic tee, and as it's got a slightly curved cropped hem (although it's just normal length on my petite self) it looks great worn over dresses, as well as with the navy tee staples of denim, shorts and skirts. It still looks new, so I've got a lot more wear to get from it! Here are 30 of my favourite ways I've worn it so far. 



Navy Tee and Pink Outfits

5 ways to wear pink and navy tee awayfromblue

Blue and pink is one of those combinations I'll always wear! And as you can see in these 5 outfits, with the neutral navy marle tee, all different shades of pink work well with it. From the neon pink bag, to leopard print jeans, pastel pink jeans or even the magenta jeans on the top right.



Orange and Navy Tee Outfits

3 ways to wear orange and navy scoop neck tee outfits awayfromblue

Surprisingly I haven't worn as much orange with this tee as I thought I would have - I feel orange really pops when you wear it with navy! I like it with the orange shorts and skirt, but a smaller piece of orange like that little peach bag in the first outfit is a great accessory with navy too.



Navy Tee and Green

navy tee with green pieces in 4 different outfits  awayfromtheblue

"Blue and green should never be seen" is one of those silly rules I used to follow, but since I've been wearing green more often I've realised how nicely green and blue compliment each other. All different shades of green, like the olive shorts, emerald green duster, or moss coloured jeans, look great next to the navy tee. 



Shorts Outfits With A Navy Tee


Shorts and a tee is a summer staple! I might throw a cover up on top for a little extra print and colour, or even just some sun coverage. But as you can see in the majority of these shorts outfits, a simple pair of shorts and a navy tee is a nice easy outfit on its own.



Navy Tee and Black


I tend to wear this navy tee a lot with black in the cooler weather - something about winter has me reaching for all the neutrals, and black jeans, or black blazers or knits, are a nice addition to a neutral navy tee. Sometimes as you can see in the first 3 outfits, I add a bit of colour with an accessory, but as in that last outfit, it's nice to just have a neutral filled outfit with the navy tee sometimes too.



Navy Tee and Purple


Blue and purple is another colour duo I frequently wear! Just as with the other colour combinations I've shared in this post, I think different shades of purple are great with this navy tee. The little plum purple Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB bag in the first and last outfits there is a favourite accessory with this navy tee, but the deeper purple bag and jeans in the middle there look good too!



Skirts and Dress Outfits With Navy Tee


As you read above, this tee is such a good layering piece. In that outfit photo in the middle there I've layered it over a maxi dress. The other outfits in this set of 5 are simple skirt outfits, but in the outfit photos earlier in the post I've shared the tee over a dress again as well. I love the look of the tee over a maxi skirt or a maxi dress, and being navy, as you've seen from all the photos in this post, it works with so many different prints and colours.

Blue Tees, Black Jeans and Printed Cover Ups

Two jeans and tee outfits with Converse, and Cotton On cover ups for working from home and school run days.


What I wore:




JacketCotton On Leah kimono in Juddy floral cerise
Necklace: mixed metal hammered pendant necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Shelley garment dye tee in faded denim blue
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bagthrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black


Why I wore it:

It was a bit of a warm day but I reached for this long sleeved cover up as I spent most of the day inside working from home. I did regret my choice of cover up at school pick up, the appointment the boys had after school was cancelled so we ended up playing in the park after school instead and I was quite warm. I did appreciate it at sports in the evening though. Despite being liberal with the bug repellent I like to have a physical barrier against the mozzies too!

I liked this blue tee with the printed waterfall jacket, as the lighter blue of the tee almost matches the lighter blue in the print of the jacket. I really like a bit of matchy-matchy!


Last worn: floral waterfall jacket, blue tee, metal necklace, black jeans, black Converse, Stella McCartney Falabella bag.

Other ways to wearfloral waterfall jacket and shorts, blue tee and maxi skirt, black jeans and leather jacket, black Converse and dress, Stella McCartney Falabella bag and skirt.

What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted Cotton On navy zig zag cover up
Necklace: thrifted blue tone flat bead statement necklace
TeeAtmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe small Paraty bag in wine purple


Why I wore it:

This is a bit of a monochromatic outfit! the faded black skinny jeans with the navy tee looks very similar in shade to the navy background of the printed cover up. I liked the combination though, it created a more muted outfit. Perfect for the school run and another working from home day, with an appointment for my son after school. That was not postponed this time!

While the chevron print on the cover up is a lot brighter than the picture seems to show, I think from a distance the finer print makes it seem less colourful. I added the purple Chloe Paraty bag for a little extra colour as well, and I liked the darker bag with this outfit.

Orange and Blue Maxi Skirt and Denim Jacket Outfits

I really like orange and blue together, and recently ended up wearing the combination in both of these maxi skirt outfits.


What I wore:




Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace: double circle hammered pendant necklace
TeeCotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Skirtthrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe small Paraty bag in wine purple


Why I wore it:

Wanted something colourful and comfortable to wear for a busy day. While I was working from home this maxi skirt was comfortable, but with the blue tee also made for a very colourful outfit to ensure that my son could spot me in the crowd in the afternoon as he got an award at school.

With the blue and orange together, I wasn't sure what bag to wear and I thought I'd give this wine purple Chloe Paraty bag a try. I really liked the combination and I'll need to wear this bag with orange again in future!


Last worn: denim jacket, hammered circle necklace, blue tee, orange maxi skirt, Converse, Chloe purple Paraty bag.

What I wore:




JacketCotton On girlfriend denim jacket in whitehaven
Necklace: thrifted wood and marble bead thrifted necklace with white string
CamiNew Look orange strappy cami top
Skirt: Jeanswest Farrah blue tie dye maxi skirt 
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bagthrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black


Why I wore it:

This maxi skirt was maybe not the best choice for a cooler day - I forgot how tall the slit was and the slight breeze made me a little chilled! This maxi skirt is really better for warmer days. It worked okay for a weekend day with a couple of errands and puppy training class for our recently adopted pup though, as I was mostly indoors thankfully. 

Just like the outfit above, I really liked the bright orange with this lighter blue tie dye skirt. I definitely needed the denim jacket to cover up the spaghetti strap cami, and I thought the neutral white helped tone down the brightness of the orange. Along with the neutral accessories I chose as well, the pale necklace and the white converse and black Stella McCartney Falabella bag. I've worn this bag with the maxi skirt before and liked the combination then too.


Last worn: white denim jacket, beaded necklace, orange cami, tie dye maxi skirt, Converse (above), Stella McCartney Falabella.

Blue Shorts and Tee Outfits With Pink MAB Crossbody Bag

Sticking with a colour combination I love for these shorts and tee outfits, wearing tonal blue with my little dusty pink Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody bag as a pop of colour.


What I wore:




Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
TeeCotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Shorts: Jeanswest Valerie yarn dye stripe short in navy and white
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff MAB crossbody with studs in desert rose


Why I wore it:

Felt like wearing a lot of blue on this day! I had the school run, a physio appointment, and working from home before school pickup in the afternoon. As it was another hot day, shorts and tee was a sensible choice! Wore my Sketchers sneakers for practicality with the physio appointment too.

I really liked the pastel blue of the tee with the navy striped belted linen shorts, but I felt this outfit was missing something, so I added the Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody bag for a bit of extra colour. While it's a lighter pink, I really like this bag with blue and I feel this made the outfit a lot better. I loved it.


Last worn: pastel blue tee, Tiffany necklace, striped linen shorts, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody bag.

Other ways to wearpastel blue tee and skirt, striped linen shorts and cardigan, Sketchers and dress, Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody bag with black outfit.






What I wore:




Necklace: thrifted pastel pink and wooden hexagon bead necklace
TeeAtmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Shorts: thrifted Kmart turquoise linen shorts
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff MAB crossbody with studs in desert rose


Why I wore it:

Since I liked the first outfit above so much, I created a very similar outfit the next day! It was yet another humid day, so the linen shorts were good in the heat, and also a practical choice. We had a kid's DIY class at Bunnings in the morning and then in the afternoon we went to go get some puppy cuddles. Wanted something that would be comfortable for both these events and shorts and tee were perfect. It's a mum staple for a reason!

Again I wore the little MAB studded crossbody bag, it looks just as good with the turquoise and navy as it did in the pastel blue and navy outfit above. I added the pastel pink necklace for a little matchy-matchy, but the pink on the necklace is a lot lighter and doesn't show up in photos as well. I still liked wearing the accessories together.


Last worn: navy tee, statement necklace, linen shorts, tan slides, Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody bag (above).

Other ways to wearnavy tee and skirt, linen shorts and graphic tee, tan slides and dress, Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody bag with floral dress.

Printed Skirts and Metallic Tops With Falabella Bag

Just like in Monday's post, I'm wearing printed skirts for spring again! This time I've worn them with metallic tops, and again I've accessorised with my Stella McCartney Falabella bag. I recently thrifted it, and it's not only an amazing opshop find it's also a really practical bag that goes with everything!


What I wore:




Necklace: Uniquely Made with Love Sea Change necklace
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Skirt: Jeanswest Farrah blue tie dye maxi skirt 
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bagthrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black


Why I wore it:

I often wear black and navy together so I didn't have any concerns about this Falabella bag with the monochromatic navy outfit. I really liked the silver chain detail on the bag with the silver lurex threads in this tee. It looks so sparkly in person, it's what drew me to it at the opshop, but sadly it doesn't seem to translate that well in the photos. It's a fun way to add a little sparkle to my day though!

Paired the new tee with a maxi skirt and my comfortable Converse for the school run, working from home, and a playdate in the park in the afternoon.


Last worn: blue beaded necklace, tie dye maxi skirt, blue Converse, Stella McCartney Falabella bag. First time I've worn the navy tee as it's a recent purchase.

Other ways to weartie dye maxi skirt and jumper, blue Converse and dress, Stella McCartney Falabella bag and shorts.







What I wore:





Necklace: adjustable coral flat bead necklace
Tank: Jeanswest Maji metallic tank in soft green and silver
Skirt: thrifted ruffle hem leopard print midi skirt
Shoesblack slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual
Bagthrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black


Why I wore it:

This is another metallic top that doesn't photograph as sparkly as it is in real life - but it does photograph a lovely silver colour! Decided to wear this tank as it's a great neutral to pair with this recently thrifted leopard print midi skirt. Added a little coral necklace for some extra colour as the neutrals looked a bit plain, and I liked the pop the colour added!

Again I wore my Falabella bag, it really does go with everything! Had to do the school run as well as working from home.

Blue and Pink Floral Print Outfits For Spring

Two simple pink and blue outfits for spring. Both have a little touch of florals, although the first one has a pink tee and blue shorts and the second is a blue tee and pink jeans to switch it up a little.


What I wore:




Necklace: thrifted metallic clay bead necklace
TeeCle The Label Charlotte tee in ombre rose
Shorts: Kmart culotte short in navy lemon print
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mica Bag - Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB side zip tote in pale lilac hand painted by Sheila


Why I wore it:

This was an eventful day! I was working from home when there was an incident in the street and I had to run out to help. Thankfully I didn't have to provide a lot of first aid as it was just a minor incident, but not the best way to meet the new neighbours!

As it had been a warm day, shorts and a tee were perfect, and after I wrapped up things with work we had a couple of errands to run and I took my son to an appointment.

I wasn't sure if the floral print bag would be too much against the print on the shorts, but I think the colours being similar helped tie it all together, and I really liked this combination.


Last worn: pink ombre tee, beaded necklace, navy printed culottes, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff hand painted mini MAB tote.

Other ways to wearpink ombre tee and blazer, navy printed culottes and cardigan, Rebecca Minkoff hand painted mini MAB tote dress.







What I wore:




Jacket: Jeanswest Polly printed kimono in white base ditsy floral 
Necklace: Happiness Boutique turquoise and coral pendant necklace (c/o)
TeeCotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
JeansSass & Bide The Winning Day Lovestate jeans in magenta
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren


Why I wore it:

This time around I went with a brighter shade of pink, with the magenta jeans and the pastel tee. With the red and pink floral print in the cover up, I thought the magenta jeans complimented it quite nicely, and I do always like blue and pink together so the pastel blue tee was an easy choice. It let me do a bit of matchy-matchy with the blue Converse too.

Didn't need to carry much, another wok from home day with a physio appointment in the afternoon so it was a good opportunity to get this little olive Darren bag out again - can't even fit my wallet in it, it really is just for the essentials.

Like with the jeans, I liked how the olive worked with the shades of green in the floral print.


Last worn: floral cover up, stone necklace, blue tee, magenta jeans, blue ConverseRebecca Minkoff mini Darren bag.

Other ways to wearfloral cover up and skirt, blue tee and shorts, magenta jeans and leather jacket, blue Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff mini Darren bag and double denim.
