Leopard Print and Jeans Outfits With Chloe Bags

Two slightly cooler spring days in Brisbane meant getting another opportunity to get my jeans out again before summer temps set in. While both of these outfits have different colour schemes, they are both jeans and a tee with leopard print and Chloe bags.


What I wore:




Necklace: thrifted cream and navy statement flat bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Jeans: Portmans pink leopard print skinny jeans
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe Marcie medium shoulder bag in nut


Why I wore it:

Pink and blue always make me smile, although it does frustrate me a little how the lurex threads on this recently thrifted tee never show up in photos! I feel it's really noticeable in person. I liked the texture the tee had with the bright cheerful pink leopard print of the jeans. Had a regular weekday with working from home and the school run, jeans and a tee was ideal. I didn't really need all the extra space the Chloe Marcie gave but I liked the neutral tan with the colourful outfit.

I've been reorganising my wardrobe a bit lately with the clear outs I've been doing, so I realised when I got to my accessories that I hadn't worn this necklace in a while, it was definitely due another wear!


Last worn: navy tee, statement necklace, pink leopard print jeans, Havaianas, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wearnavy tee and maxi skirt, pink leopard print jeans and denim jacket, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag and dress.





What I wore:


Chloe small Ethel bag in light khaki | awayfromblue


Necklace:  thrifted wooden yellow tassel necklace
TeeSass and Bide 'New Day Rising' tee in orange leopard print
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus orange, yellow and red thread bracelets
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

Another day of working from home and the school run, with a couple of errands after picking the kids up from school. These grey skinny jeans are extremely comfortable, and I liked the neutral grey of the denim and the pale khaki of the Chloe Ethel bag with the neon orange leopard print on the tee.

I went a little matchy-matchy with the orange bracelets, although I added a slightly different colour with the yellow tassel necklace. I really liked this outfit! It was a slightly cooler day with all the rain, this outfit was perfect.


Last worn: leopard print tee, yellow tassel necklace, grey skinny jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Chloe Ethel bag.

Pink Tees, Grey Jeans and Rebecca Minkoff Cupid

Two pink tee and grey jeans outfits I wore recently, with my go-with-everything Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag. I added some printed cover ups for a little extra colour in my outfits as well.


What I wore:




Jacket: thrifted Cotton On maroon wanderlust floral border cover up
Necklace: thrifted wood and marble bead thrifted necklace with white string
Tee: Kmart short sleeve cotton modal tee in tulip pink (new purchase)
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

Wore this to run a couple of errands and stop by the local opshop to donate a few more things from the spring clear out I've been having lately. Since I knew I was going to be browsing after donating, I wore a couple of thrifted pieces - completely unscientific but I find I have good luck in an opshop if I'm wearing something thrifted, haha! This necklace, the burgundy floral print cover up, and the Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag were all finds from this opshop in the past. And when I found this Rebecca Minkoff Cupid in the opshop I thought for sure I'd got the best bag find ever. So I really wasn't expecting to find another designer bag in the opshop!

Happily picked up a Stella McCartney Falabella for just $30 though! Got a few other things as well before I stumbled across this bag, and could not believe my luck when I took a closer look and saw it was the real deal.

This dusky pink tee I thought went nicely with the burgundy and peach floral print of the cover up, and it was a nice layer to add a little extra interest to a simple jeans and tee outfit.


Last worn: floral cover up, neutral necklace, grey skinny jeans, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag. First time I've worn the tee as it's a recent purchase.

Opshop Find: Stella McCartney Falabella





What I wore:




JacketJeanswest Kensley summer tie-dye kimono
Necklace: navy and silver circle pendant tassel necklace
TeeCle The Label Charlotte tee in ombre rose
JeansNobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag:  thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

Another pink tee and grey jeans outfit for the weekend. We had a playdate and it was a slightly cooler morning so I thought this fun tie dye cape was a good cover up, not too heavy for when it warmed up later in the day. I added the navy tassel necklace for a little bit of matchy-matchy with the navy tie dye as well. And again, my Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag that goes with everything.


Last worn: tie dye cape, navy tassel necklace, pink ombre tee, grey jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid (above).

Skinny Jeans, Collarless Jackets, And Mulberry Bayswater | Weekday Wear Link Up

Skinny jeans and collarless jackets for the office with my Mulberry Bayswater tote bag. This Mulberry classic Bayswater tote was a staple of office life before 2020, but it hasn't been worn much since. It was good to get it out again, even if I don't carry much to the office to need such a big bag.


What I wore:




Jacket: Jeanswest Dixie collarless jacket
Necklace: thrifted yellow beaded statement pendant long necklace
Cami: thrifted Kmart dusty rose cami
JeansNobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
ShoesWalnut Melbourne Ava white leopard ballet flats
Bracelets: the usual
BagMulberry Bayswater in Oak NVT leather


Why I wore it:

This was a very fun day at work - although maybe not the best day to wear so much black. We had visiting puppies who were up for adoption and if Cooper wasn't best suited to be a solo dog I would have filled in quite a few adoption requests! I had a lot of fun patting all the cute pups, even if I was constantly finding dog hair on my jeans after!

I've worn this dusky pink cami with black jeans before, I really like the combination. I felt that the tweed collarless jacket and the leopard print ballet flats made this a little more dressed up for the day in the office, even though I didn't have to be too formal because of the puppies!


Last worn: tweed jacket, yellow necklace, pink cami, Nobody denim skinny jeans, leopard print flats, Mulberry Bayswater tote bag.

Other ways to weartweed jacket and pencil skirt, pink cami and denim skirt, Nobody denim skinny jeans and printed top, leopard print flats and wrap dress, Mulberry Bayswater tote bag and florals.

Perfect for pregnancytweed jacket in second trimester, Mulberry Bayswater tote bag in third trimester.





What I wore:




JacketDiane Von Furstenberg Gabrielle boxy floral jacket in garden green (via Sheila's wardrobe)
Earrings: Colette silver filigree leaf diamante statement earrings
Tank: Kmart linen blend textured black tank
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
ShoesWalnut Melbourne 'Ava' black lizard ballet flats
Bracelets: the usual plus Roie Designs black leather Swarovski beaded wrap bracelet
BagMulberry Bayswater in Oak NVT leather


Why I wore it:

I don't think the oak leather of the Mulberry classic bayswater went as well in this outfit as it did with the black and pink above, but it did make this outfit feel more formal for work. With the grey jeans and the black linen blend tank and black ballet flats, again this was quite a neutral outfit. So I got this pretty green silk jacket out again, it was one Sheila gave me a while back. With the collarless jacket and the v-neckline of the tank I had such a hard time picking a necklace for hit outfit - nothing seemed to go right! In the end I decided on these big silver leaf earrings so I didn't have to worry about a necklace.

I did like this outfit, but think maybe darker jeans or a darker bag would have worked better.

Blue Tops, Pink Scarves, Cardigans and Skinny Jeans | Weekday Wear Link Up

Two different blue and pink outfits with skinny jeans and cosy cardigans. Both outfits feature a scarf for a bright pop of pink.


What I wore:


thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Jacket: thrifted no label black and white leopard print cardigan
Scarf: thrifted pink ombre tassel scarf
TankCle The Label Amelia tank in indigo 
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

I threw this top on after it was delivered the day before - probably should have ironed it, can still see those new from packet creases, ha! But it was the perfect block colour piece to wear with this fun leopard print cardigan, and super comfortable with the grey jeans. I was just working from home and doing the school run, but added a little warmth and colour with the pink ombre scarf that I thrifted recently.


Last worn: leopard print cardigan, pink ombre scarf, blue tank, grey skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid.

TeeAtmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Jeans:  thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

With the navy tee, navy cardigan and the faded black skinny jeans, this was a bit of a darker outfit than the one above. I thought that the pink and white Alexander McQueen skull scarf was a nice way to lighten up the outfit a little with that pop of pink and the white background. Again I went with my Converse sneakers and my Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag, that has been a firm go-to for me since I thrifted it recently. Nice and easy jeans and tee outfit for my sons playdate.

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:


thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue | awayfromblue


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
Shoesthrifted 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 sneakersFirst time I've worn the dinosaur earrings and Rebecca Minkoff cupid bag as they are recent opshop finds.

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
ShoesNew 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 wearstriped scarf and pencil skirt, cobalt knit and maxi skirt, faded black jeans and printed top.

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:


Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere with stripes | awayfromblue


JacketKmart 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
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
BagLouis 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 wearblack 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 pregnancyConverse 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
NecklaceRoie Designs long freshwater pearl necklace with tassel
Tee: Jeanswest Emma woven trim tee in terracotta
JeansNobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
BagLouis 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.

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:

Jeanswest Chana long sleeve stud top in night sky navy and skinny jeans with chloe periwinkle paraty | awayfromblue

Chloe periwinkle small Paraty | awayfromtheblue


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
JeansNobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe 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 wearnavy 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:

Jeanswest Frankie soft blouse in berry with converse, purple paraty bag and nobody denim skinny jeans | awayfromblue

Chloe small Paraty bag in wine purple | awayfromtheblue


Blouse: Jeanswest Frankie soft blouse in berry
JeansNobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
BagChloe 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!

Matching Tees To Cover Ups With Dark Jeans | Weekday Wear Link Up

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up, I'm sharing some simple jeans and tee outfits with some recently thrifted cover ups and my little turquoise Balenciaga First bag to add a little more colour.


What I wore:

grey jeans, converse, zig zag cover up pink tee turquoise Balenciaga first bag | awayfromblue

Balenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India with pink tee | awayfromtheblue


Jacket: thrifted Cotton On navy zig zag cover up
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
TeeCotton On deep v tee in washed desert rose
JeansNobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagBalenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India


Why I wore it:

Since I thrifted the navy flat necklace and the zig zag print cover up together, I knew I'd end up wearing them together, the navy shades match perfectly! Just like last time I wore this cover up, I tried a little turquoise bag to make the turquoise in the print pop out a bit more. Once again, it didn't really seem to work. I did love how well the pink tee went with the coral in the navy print though, I felt it brought that out well, and I do like all shades of pink and blue together.

Staple jeans and Converse as it was a busy day, with working from home, the school run, and an appointment at the vets for Cooper. Converse were good for all the driving around.





What I wore:

burgundy tee, floral cover up, skinny jeans, converse and Balenciaga first bag | awayfromblue

Balenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India with burgundy and maroon floral print cover up | awayfromblue


Jacket: thrifted Cotton On maroon wanderlust floral border cover up
Necklace: Kmart black and gold double strand beaded necklace
TeeZalora Basics maroon stepped t-shirt
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagBalenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India


Why I wore it:

I liked wearing this burgundy floral print cover up with my purple tee first time I wore it. So I thought I'd try it again with a dark tee, with this burgundy tunic and the black skinny jeans. It's not a perfect match to the colours in the print of the kimono, but I still really liked this outfit. I think the necklace was a good addition too, it took me a couple of tries that morning to find just the right necklace!

The Balenciaga first bag doesn't match anything in this outfit, unlike the outfit above, but I do love the pop of colour it adds, especially against the faded black skinny jeans.

We took advantage of the public holiday to head down the coast and spend some time with my parents. The rain arrived and slightly derailed our picnic plans, but our picnic in the lounge room was just as fun.


Last worn: burgundy floral print cover up, burgundy tee, beaded necklace, faded black skinny jeans, Converse (above), Balenciaga turquoise First bag (above).

Other ways to wearburgundy floral print cover up, burgundy tee in capsule wardrobe, faded black skinny jeans and blazer, Converse and pencil skirt, Balenciaga turquoise First bag and pink dress.
