Maxi Skirts and Denim Jackets

Blue tees, denim jackets and maxi skirts for Brisbane winter days.

What I wore:

Jacket: Anko Kmart mid wash denim jacket
Earrings: Colette silver light twist hoop earrings
Necklace: mixed metal hammered pendant necklace
Tee: Anko Kmart short sleeve slub v-neck tee in blu marine
Skirt: thrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather

Why I wore it:

Nice and colourful with this blue tee, ochre orange maxi skirt, and more blue with the denim jacket and deep teal Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag. I really liked the accessories with this outfit, the twist hoop earrings go so nicely with the mixed metal pendant necklace.

It was a little chilly for the school run so this denim jacket was a great layer over this maxi skirt and tee outfit. I wear blue with this maxi skirt often, I really like the colour combination! And it was nice and comfortable for working from home, and doing the school run. I picked up some of my sons friends from school the afternoon for a playdate too.


Last worn: denim jacket, silver earrings, blue tee, mixed metal necklace, ochre maxi skirt, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag.

Other ways to wear: denim jacket and grey tee, blue tee with red, ochre maxi skirt and knit, Adidas Superstar sneakers and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag and pencil skirt.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Kitty denim biker jacket
Earrings: Colette white pearl beaded gum leaf tassel earrings
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Skirt: no label cream and brown floral print midi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bag: Chloe small Paraty bag in wine purple

Why I wore it:

Another maxi skirt, blue tee and denim jacket outfit for another day of working from home. As well as also doing the school run, I took the kids to sports in the evening. I did kind of wish I'd worn a scarf with this as well in the evening! The denim jacket is great and usually keeps me warm, but it was quite a chilly night.

This was perfect for during the day though, my oldest had a special excursion so I had to drop him off for that in the morning. He had such a good day and did really well in the presentation in the afternoon - I'm proud of him! I needed a bag for all my essentials plus my camera for taking photos at his presentation, so I went with this purple Chloe Paraty. Like the orange maxi skirt, I like purple and blue together so I often wear this with blue. It's the first time I've worn it with this brown floral print maxi skirt and I really liked the deep purple with the brown and cream. I'm definitely going to have to wear them together again.

I skipped a necklace and just wore a statement pair of earrings with this outfit as I felt the subtle sparkle on the tee was enough interest that I didn't need to add a necklace. It never shows up too well in photos though!


Last worn: gold leaf earrings, moto denim jacket, navy sparkle tee, brown floral print maxi skirt, white Converse, Chloe purple Paraty bag.

Other ways to wear: moto denim jacket and dress, navy sparkle tee and jeans, brown floral print maxi skirt and grey tee, white Converse and shorts, Chloe purple Paraty bag and dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

Colourful Tees, Printed Culotte Shorts and Chloe Marcie Shoulder Bag

On some warmer autumn days I got out my printed Kmart culotte shorts, and paired them with basic block colour tees and my Chloe Marcie shoulder bag.

What I wore:

Earrings: Michael Hill stud earrings with aqua cubic zirconia in sterling silver
Necklace: Kmart blue multi-colour beaded necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed summer mango
Shorts: Kmart culotte short in navy lemon print
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe Marcie medium shoulder bag in nut

Why I wore it:

This colourful mango yellow tee hadn't been worn in a while so it was overdue another wear! I thought it was perfect for being bright and noticeable as I sat on the sidelines of my son's sport activity at school. It was so good getting to cheer them on, although the unexpected rain did put a bit of a damper on things, it cleared up in time for the kids to compete.

Because I had forgotten an umbrella I was glad I'd gone with this light shorts and tee outfit - it dried out nice and quickly for working from home later in the day. My friends and I huddled in the sidelines under blankets and umbrellas from those who had them, but it wasn't quite enough to keep us all dry. I had my water bottle and a hat with me so I went for this big Chloe Marcie bag - it holds so much, perfect size for all the essentials and more.


Last worn: blue stud earrings, mango yellow tee, blue beaded necklace, lemon print navy culotte shorts, white Converse, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wear: mango yellow tee and jeans, lemon print navy culotte shorts and graphic tee, white Converse and skirt, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag and dress.

What I wore:

Necklace: Roie Designs long freshwater pearl necklace with tassel
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Shorts: thrifted Kmart pastel soft culotte shorts in floral print
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe Marcie medium shoulder bag in nut

Why I wore it:

Another shorts and tee outfit for the school run and working from home. I like these pastel print culottes, they are the same style as the pair above, but a different print and colour. They were a lucky opshop find. I decided to try them with this pastel blue tee. I wasn't sure if it was too much pastel at first, but I think this long necklace helped tie the pieces together nicely and added a bit of contrast.

While I didn't have a lot to carry with me, again I wore my Chloe Marcie bag, as being in a rush that morning it was easier not to have to change over my bag. The neutral brown works well with the blues and greys in this outfit I thought.


Last worn: pastel blue tee, pearl tassel necklace, pastel print culotte shorts, Havaianas, Chloe Marcie bag (above).

Other ways to wear: pastel blue tee and maxi skirt, pastel print culotte shorts and blazer, Chloe Marcie bag and jeans.

Blue Tees, A-Line Skirts and Black Mimco Mim-Mazing Crossbody Bag

Wearing blue tees and a-line skirts with my little black Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag recently.

What I wore:

Earrings: Colette shadow dancer geo circle tassel drop earrings
Tee: Jeanswest Shelley garment dye tee in faded denim blue
Skirt: thrifted Kmart rust button up linen blend skirt
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Felt like it had been a while since I'd worn this skirt, and the rust coloured linen is so perfect for autumn that I had to get it out again. I wore it with this simple blue tee, and then as the paper bag waist and the tie waist and button detail on the skirt added enough interest, I skipped wearing a necklace. I did add some statement earrings, like the skirt these gold ones hadn't been worn in a while, I forgot how heavy they were! They are so pretty though, I liked the way the circles matched the circular buttons on the skirt, although they are not the easiest to see in my wavy hair.

This was a nice comfortable outfit for lunch and a couple of errands and birthday present shopping with my son.


Last worn: statement gold earrings, blue tee, orange linen button up skirt, white Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing Crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: blue tee and maxi skirt, orange linen button up skirt and denim jacket, white Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing Crossbody bag and shorts.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted bronze foil statement necklace
Tee: Anko Kmart short sleeve slub v-neck tee in blu marine
Skirt: Target animal print ruffle hem mini skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Since I enjoyed the outfit above so much I wore a very similar one again the next day for church. This time I went matchy-matchy, with the blue tee and blue Converse sneakers. Again I wore my little Mimco crossbody bag, I just needed the essentials for church.

Although this animal print ruffle hem a-line skirt is a bold statement piece, unlike the outfit above I felt I needed a necklace with this. I liked this bronze foil one, an opshop find, as it matched the colours in the skirt so well.


Last worn: blue tee, bronze foil necklace, animal print skirt, blue Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag (above).

Other ways to wear: blue tee with red, animal print skirt and leather jacket, blue Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and jeans.

Blue, Red and Yellow Maxi Skirt Outfits

Two different maxi skirt outfits, both colourful with blue, yellow and red for a couple of quiet days in the school holidays.

What I wore:

Necklace: handmade silver and gold faux pearl beaded necklace
Tee: Anko Kmart short sleeve slub v-neck tee in blu marine
Skirt: thrifted NWT Beginning Boutique Sahara red-orange maxi skirt
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual plus Vinnies blue and natural wooden bead bracelet stack
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip

Why I wore it:

I got this blue tee from mum for Christmas and knew it would be perfect with this red tiered maxi skirt I thrifted last year. I really like blue and red together! I added a little extra colour with the yellow mini 5 zip bag. It's a fun pop with the red.

The necklace is one I made from some old thread I had. I had thrifted a faux suede threaded beaded necklace and it kept snapping, our climate is not great for faux leather as the humidity makes it disintegrate. So I rebuilt the necklace on thread as best as I could, but had these beads left over. Decided to make them into a little necklace of their own. I liked the simplicity of this resulting necklace.

Very colourful for a quiet day, just a couple of errands to run and an appointment in the afternoon.


Last worn: red tiered maxi skirt, bracelet stack, tan slides, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag. First time I've worn the blue tee as it was a Christmas present and first time I've worn the necklace as I recently made it.

Other ways to wear: red tiered maxi skirt and denim jacket, tan slides and dress, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag and shorts.

---

What I wore:

Earring: candy cane hoop earrings
Necklace: thrifted chartreuse necklace
Tank: Jeanswest 'Hannah' print tank in paradise pink multi
Skirt: thrifted navy viscose drawstring no label maxi skirt
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip

Why I wore it:

This was a much hotter and more humid day than the one above, so I went with this super lightweight viscose maxi skirt. Like the maxi skirt above, it's an opshop find, and with the light viscose and the side slits it's perfect on a hot day. Again I added the yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag, and went a little matchy-matchy with the chartreuse necklace. I think the pieces are far enough apart in my outfit that you don't notice they aren't a perfect match as much, and I enjoyed the two pieces together last time I paired them. I wore my coral brushstroke stripe tank, as it's also a nice light material.

We had a couple of errands to run and an event at the library for the kids. It was nice to spend some time in the aircon at the shops and at the library. We have attended a lot of library events over the school holidays, they had some really fun things on that the kids enjoyed as much as this session. Again I just wore these simple slides, it was too hot for closed in shoes.


Last worn: candy cane earrings, chartreuse necklace, brushstroke stripe tank, navy maxi skirt, tan slides (above), Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip bag (above).

Other ways to wear: brushstroke stripe tank and pencil skirt, navy maxi skirt and leopard print, tan slides and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip bag and floral dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: brushstroke stripe tank in second trimester.

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:

Jacket: The Kindness Kimono 'Dream Catch Me' print
Earrings: mini glitter gingerbread earrings
Necklace: thrifted bronze foil statement necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed red clay
Skirt: Nobody Denim Piper vacation skirt in black distressed denim
Shoes: Les Tropeziennes Par M.Belarbi leopard print and gold leather sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe 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 wear: printed 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
Necklace: ZuriCollections blue polymer clay necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Skirt: JayJays distressed denim mini skirt
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca 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: earrings, blue tile print cover up, blue beaded necklace, pastel blue tee, denim mini skirt, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Bedford bag.

Other ways to wear: blue 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
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Skirt: Kmart breeze green broderie anglaise midi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual plus jade bracelet
Bag: Mimco 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 wear: pastel 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
Necklace: Starfish Project Hannah turquoise bead necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Sophie navy v-neck tee
Skirt: thrifted &Me blue linen button up midi skirt with pockets
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mimco 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 wear: navy 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

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

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

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

"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:

Jacket: Cotton 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
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: thrifted 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 wear: floral waterfall jacket and shorts, blue tee and maxi skirt, black jeans and leather jacket, black Converse and dress, Stella McCartney Falabella bag and skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

---

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Cotton On navy zig zag cover up
Necklace: thrifted blue tone flat bead statement necklace
Tee: Atmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe 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.

Last worn: chevron print cover up, beaded necklace, navy tee, skinny jeans, blue Converse, Chloe Paraty bag.

Other ways to wear: chevron print cover up and pink, navy tee and shorts, skinny jeans and graphic tee, blue Converse and dress, Chloe Paraty bag and skirt.
