Casual Friday: Jeans, Striped Top, Rocco Bag | Tank, Maxi Skirt, RM Nikki Hobo

Here's what I wore to work on Friday:


Necklacecustom Cooper charm by Silhoupette
TeeLiving Doll stripe 3/4 sleeve top
Jeans: Sass and Bide "Straight up" jeans
ShoesNine West fascinate ballet flats in silver glitter
Bracelets: the usual
BagAlexander Wang Rocco with gold hardware in dark argon


Always predictable, jeans for casual Friday :) Covered up a little with this shirt as it was overcast and the weather was predicted to get cooler and storm a little. Forgot to pack an umbrella though, which meant I got soaked on the way home as the rain set in, haha. Meant it was a good night for comfort food for dinner and curling up on the sofa watching a movie.


Last worn: stripe top, skinny jeans, glitter flats, Alexander Wang Rocco bag.



Here's what I wore today:


Sunnies: Orange sunglasses from Paddy's Market in Sydney
Necklace: Roie Designs feather, quartz and love charm long necklace
Singlet: Cotton on caramel 'Forever Tank' in caramel
Skirt: Seafolly runaway maxi skirt in sunset (purchased at DFO Brisbane)
ShoesAsos metallic Freestyle leather sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus Roie Designs waxed leather cream howlite beaded wrap bracelet
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Nikki in Silverstreak


I will be honest, I spent a bit of time trying to find the perfect orange or yellow top in my wardrobe to wear with this to have a full obmre sunset outfit going on! Nothing seemed to match quite right, so I went with this nice brown tank in the end. Probably best, I might have gotten strange looks from people wondering if I was dressing up as a sunset for Halloween, haha!


Last worn: orange sunniesbrown singlet, ombre maxi skirt, Asos freestyle sandals, Rebecca Minkoff Nikki bag.

Stripe Tank, Jeans, Balenciaga Sorbet Accessories | Asos Grey Tee, Skinnies, RM Mini MAC, Funkita Swimwear

Here's what I wore to work on Friday:



Sunnies: pink leopard print sunglasses from Paddy's Markets in Sydney
Necklacecustom Cooper charm by Silhoupette
Top: AT By Atmos&Here Orion stripe tank (new purchase)
Jeans: Sass and Bide "Straight up" jeans
ShoesBalenciaga studded sandals in sorbet RGGH
Bracelets: the usual
BagBalenciaga RH classic city in 2010 sorbet


I worked from home on Thursday and actually forgot to take an OOTD before it got dark, although I did take a quick instagram shot of Cooper and I when I realised.

So this is what I wore to work for casual Friday. Nice simple striped tank and jeans. I would have liked to have added a scarf for some colour, but it was much too hot, so settled for pink accessories.


Last worn: leopard print sunglasses, Sass & Bide jeans, Balenciaga sandals, Balenciaga sorbet city. First time I've worn the tank as it's a new purchase.




Here's what I wore today:



Sunnies: gifted Cotton On 'Risky Business' sunglasses in sky blue
Necklace: gift from DH
TeeAsos new forever grey tee
JeansSass & Bide Jekyll and Hyde zippora jeans
Shoes: Novo 'Tahnee' black studded sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus Kate Spade skinny mini bow bracelet
BagRebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC


This is in fact the exact same outfit as I wore a few weeks ago, just with different accessories. Although I do repeat wear items a lot, like everyone with a finite wardrobe space does, I don't usually repeat combinations so closely together, haha. I just like this tee with the skinny jeans. It's comfortable and it works :)


The weather was even sunny enough today to take a dip in the pool with my new Funkita garden party print bikini! Funkita make really good swimwear, and just released a new 'Pixel Mix' collection at the start of the month. Lots of fun prints and bright colours for spring, all the way up to a size 22. I think this floral print is lovely and perfect for the warm weather, don't you think?


It looks great when worn too, so I thought I'd share that photo of the gorgeous Funkita model wearing it to truly do it justice. They have lots of pics on their facebook page. The fit is nice, and everything stays firmly in place so you don't have to do that awkward "modesty check" to make sure everything is still covered before you pop up from jumping into the pool like you do with some bikinis. Looking forward to wearing this a lot over the coming months and putting the durability and colour fast properties of the fabric to the test! Although I just missed out on it arriving before our long weekend holiday, the warm weather we are having means I'll have plenty more times to wear it before the pool gets too cold.


Last worn: blue sunglasses, Asos grey tee, Jekyll and Hyde skinny jeans, studded sandals, RM silver mini MAC.

French Connection Black and White Dress, Mulberry Bayswater | Casual Friday Florals and Jeans, Alexander Wang Rocco Bag

Here's what I wore to work on Thursday:

Necklace: Chanel necklace
Dress: French Connection Romany rib printed dress
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs patent leather logo plaque flats
Bracelets: the usual plus Kate Spade skinny mini bow bracelet (new purchase)
BagMulberry Bayswater in Oak NVT leather


Big bag today to carry some notebooks back to work, and also as I had a meeting on the other side of the city I had to take stuff along too. It was a nice sunny day, so a simple printed dress. Haven't worn this dress as much as I expected too after I bought it, so today was it's last wear. It's feels a little more casual than some of my other work dresses, so I usually pass by it in my wardrobe in favour of another. After reading Blue Paper Laterns Closet Inventory post, I've been thinking about how many clothes I own and how rarely I wear most of them. I need to be more ruthless with removing things that aren't perfect. Maybe once I've had a few more wardrobe clearouts I'll be brave enough to try and count what I have!


Last worn: French Connection print dress, patent MbMJ flats, Mulberry Bayswater bag.

Jeans for casual Friday :) Wasn't entirely sure what shoes to wear with this, but I think the brown looked nice with the little brown bits in the top. What do you think?

Kept everything fairly neutral after my bright monochrome orange outfit on Wednesday! Wearing the last of my new purchases from my DFO Spring accessories shopping trip on the weekend, this cute belt. A couple of times I've worn this skirt people have suggested I add a belt, so when I saw this belt in Forever New my skirt popped to mind right away! Really liked the little bit of colour the belt added, brought out some of the blue in the skirt print. 


Last worn: brown tee, vintage skirt, cut-out detail flats, Chloe Paddington bag.

I purchased this top a year ago and this is only the third time it's been worn, that's a really bad rate for such a pretty top! I definitely need to wear it more often. The top and blazer have been paired together before and I wasn't too happy with the outfit, but this time around I think it looks better with the top partially tucked in. What do you think?

Short but sweet blog post today, sharing what I wore to work for casual Friday. A nice comfortable jeans and tee outfit. I've been looking at this top in my wardrobe for a long time thinking I should get round to wearing it again, today was finally the day as I was having trouble thinking of what to wear when I remembered this tee hadn't been worn in a while.

Spent a little bit of time today planning tomorrow - a girls day out is on the cards! :)

Floral Print Dress, Chloe Marcie Bag | Grey Tee, Jeans, Leather Jacket, Alexander Wang Rocco

Here's what I wore to work on Thursday:

Necklacecustom Cooper charm by Silhoupette
DressLeona Edmiston Blanche dress
Belt: came with dress
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs patent leather logo plaque flats
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe Marcie medium hobo bag in Nut


Wore this leather jacket as it's a little cold in the mornings to be going without a jacket on top, but I'm not too sure it looked right with the print of the dress. It did keep me warm though :) I think maybe I could have gone for a different bag and shoes too. What do you think? I just think something looks a little off about the outfit in the photos.

Jeans for casual Friday! :) Couldn't decide what shoes to wear with this, so went with my trusty little mouse flats in the end. I thought my blue glitter ones looked a bit odd with the gold hardware of the bag, but I probably could have just worn them anyway. My feet were certainly happy with the mice though, the comfiest ballet flats I own!

Gave up trying to handle the cold and just wore pants to work Thursday, haha! Didn't realise how Asos-centric this outfit was until I wrote the post... Picked this top to wear as it was a little more formal to balance out the comfy pants for the office, and because I haven't worn it in a while.

Added the pink scarf to keep me warm and to add a bit of colour to what I was wearing. Have been a little repetitive lately with pulling this jacket, but it's right at the front of my wardrobe after I put it away so it's the first one I reach for!

A different jacket at last! Thought I would try red with this blue jacket for a change :) Simple casual Friday outfit, again more for warmth than anything. Was too cold to even realise how bad the lighting was this morning, not one of my better pictures with a super sunshine-y neck. I loved the outfit though.
Kept my scarf on in the office as the red felt nice and cheerful against the grey. Also had some flowers on my desk as it was Daffodil Day today. Was lovely smelling them through the day.

Just a casual outfit for Casual Friday at work. Was actually cold enough in the morning to need a scarf as well as a leather jacket, not very nice to wake up to after the warmer weather for the past few days, haha. Went with pink as it matched the tee nicely and pink always looks great with this blue jacket :)

Have had another wardrobe clearout and listed a few things on ebay, including a couple of my handbags. Feel free to check it out, everything starts at 99 cents. Even the bags ;)

Jeans and a tee again for Saturday today. Ran some errands in the morning, and walked Cooper in the afternoon. Wanted to wear my new jeans :) Saw and admired these jeans on the Sass and Bide instagram months ago, and was pleasantly surprised when I checked the site Wednesday and saw they were on sale! Bought them right away without hesitating of course. So happy to have them arrive on Friday after just buying them 2 days before.

Decided to wear my Mulberry Lily bag again, as I haven't worn it in a while. Wasn't sure if it was too much suede with the shoes and bag together though, what do you think?


Last worn: Cookie Monster teered suede flats, Mulberry metallic leopard print Lily. First time I've worn the skinnies as they are a recent purchase.

Really felt like wearing blue and grey again on Thursday. Wanted to be comfortable, but also had an important meeting in the afternoon. I thought this jacket was a nice way to dress up a tee. It was a little cold though! The day before had been warm as I planned the outfit, but in the single digit temperatures on the way to work in the morning I was wishing I'd not picked a cropped sleeve jacket, haha!


Last worn: Zara cropped sleeve blazer, blue tee, Asos pencil skirt, glitter flats, RM grey MAM bag.

Jeans for casual Friday! Had an off-site event today so carried my neverfull to hold all the important bits and pieces I needed. Ended up being a really long day.

I was pleased I'd picked flats to wear as during the morning the fire alarm sounded and we all had to evacuate. From the 17th level! Wasn't very fun, but it did give us a bit of a break in the day and let us enjoy the sunshine for a bit. :)

Phone photos as the camera battery died when taking photos in the morning, oops!

Friday was jeans for genes day, which I completely forgot, so I wasn't wearing blue denim. Was attending a training course and they hadn't told us what the dress code was so I thought black jeans would be best in case it wasn't supposed to be casual wear. Carried my LV neverfull as there was a bit of material I had to carry around for the course.

Swapped to my red Balenciaga flat clutch in the evening as DH surprised me by planning a dinner and movie date night for us. Was a lovely way to unwind after a crazy work week.

Bracelets: the usual
BagMulberry regular size Alexa bag in foggy grey


Grey tee and jeans again! Tried to switch it up a little with printed jeans for a bit of interest. Such a comfortable outfit, perfect for running errands and shopping today. Was warm during the day, so I didn't need a scarf or jacket. Cooper spotted a cat on the other side of the fence, so he wasn't at all interested in the camera, haha.

I purchased a couple of these Spectrum basic tees from The Iconic in their sale a few weeks back, and I'm so glad I did. I really like the relaxed fit and how soft they are. Lately, I have been thinking a lot about my wardrobe and how I need to have pieces that can be mixed and matched. 3 tops and bottoms that can be worn in any way can make 9 outfits, 3 tops and bottoms that can't be paired with any other pieces only gives 3. Having a good selection of basics is part of that. So is paring down my wardrobe to only what I love and wear often, but as I'm not so good at de-cluttering I'm trying to at least be more thoughtful in my purchasing!


Last worn: pink leopard jeans, studded mouse flats, Mulberry foggy grey Alexa. First time I've worn the tee as it's a recent purchase.

Had to wear my team shirt again today. Like last week, I paired it with a pencil skirt for simplicity :) As it was cold and windy I zipped my jacket all the way up, but you aren't missing out on much, just a boring grey polo.

Wearing my new scarf purchase too. Tried a couple of ways in the mirror in the morning but couldn't figure out how to wear it to best show off the colours. Think I need lessons on how to fold it properly, haha! Just take my word for it that it's beautiful and bright, and that there is a grey polo under my jacket ;)

Planned this outfit the night before, and woke up to a lot of rain. So much rain it knocked our power out a couple of times during the night. I decided to go ahead and wear what I'd planned anyway, although boots probably would have been nicer for walking. Luckily the rain dried up during the day and I managed to get some outside photos, after my poor attempt before I left for work. Left my hair wavy and natural as it was raining anyway :)

I think the scarf worked okay due to all the other brown tones in my outfit, what do you think?
