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.

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).

Yellow Tees, Jeans, Olive Darren Bag and Floral Cover Ups

I've been wearing a lot of pink lately, so decided to break it up a little! Still sticking with my trusty jeans and tee staple outfit, just picking yellow tees this time with fun floral cover ups and my Rebecca Minkoff mini Darren bag in olive.


What I wore:


Rebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren | awyafromtheblue


Jacket: thrifted no label tropical print tassel cover up
Necklace: thrifted gold and pastel blue beaded necklace with grey string
Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in elfin yellow
Jeans: Dannii Minogue denim high waist skinny jean in ecru
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual plus plus jade beads and Roie Designs bracelets
BagRebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren


Why I wore it:

It's not the first time I've worn this tropical print cover up with the white skinny jeans. And I wore a yellow tee that time too! I really like the combination, just something so summery about it! With the pastel yellow tee as well I felt this was such a fun and colourful outfit. With all that colour, chose my little Rebecca Minkoff mini Darren crossbody in olive as a neutral shade to go with it all. And I only had to carry the essentials, as I had the school drop off, a couple errands, then working from home before school pickup in the afternoon. Even tried being a little matchy-mathcy with my bracelets with this outfit too.


Last worn: tropical print cover up, yellow tee, blue beaded necklace, white skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff mini Darren bag.

Other ways to weartropical print cover up and skirt, yellow tee and shorts, white skinny jeans and cardigan, Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff mini Darren bag and maxi skirt.

Jacket: Jeanswest Delilah long line kimono in green floral
Necklace: thrifted wooden geometric bead necklace
Tee: Big W mustard v-neck tee
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoesblack slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren


Why I wore it:

I needed all the colours on this day for a bit of a boost so went for this very bold combination of the mustard tee with the green floral print duster. I had a busy day with the school run, working from home, and Cooper had some surgery at the vets. I felt like the bright yellow and bright green was a nice way to make myself seem more cheerful than I was. And I love that green necklace whenever I wear it with this duster.

The black jeans made the colours pop more too, and again I went with the little mini Darren bag as I just needed the essentials. Thankfully, all went well at the vets for Cooper!


Last worn: green floral duster, mustard tee, geometric necklace, faded black skinny jeans, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff mini Darren bag (above).

Other ways to weargreen floral duster and dress, mustard tee and maxi skirt, faded black skinny jeans and band tee, Rebecca Minkoff mini Darren bag and shorts.

Navy Tees, Shorts, Prints and Pink Jean MAC Bag

Two simple navy tees and shorts outfits, again with my Rebecca Minkoff fig pink Jean MAC bag. I've really been loving it lately, and the pretty pink shade goes so nicely with navy.


What I wore:

Necklace: Kmart blue multi-colour beaded necklace
TeeAtmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Shorts: thrifted Kmart pastel soft culotte shorts in floral print
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

Needed a nice simple shorts and tee outfit for the school run, working from home, and a physio appointment. This shorts and tee combination was perfect. With the navy blue tee and the pastel blue of the shorts the tri-colour necklace that had similar shades of blue was a great accessory! And I wore this Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag again because I love it with navy. Comfortable Sketchers sneakers for the drive to the physio and for doing all the exercises.


Last worn: navy tee, wooden necklace, pastel print culottes, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC.

Other ways to wearnavy tee and denim skirt, pastel print culottes and cardigan, Sketchers and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC and dress.

Tee: Kmart Dnight navy textured v-neck tee
Shorts: thrifted Kmart turquoise linen shorts

BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

Again, needed a comfortable and simple outfit so wen with shorts and a tee. These turquoise thrifted linen shorts were great in the heat! With the navy tee and turquoise shorts I wanted to add a little extra colour as well, the fig pink Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag was again good for this.  When I saw this cover up in my wardrobe and knew it would be perfect, with the different shades or pink and blue in the print. I liked how well coordinated this outfit was!

Had a couple errands to run in the morning, then had my parents come over for lunch.

Pink Tees Printed Shorts, Cover Ups and Jean MAC Bag

Just like in Monday's post, wearing my little fig pink Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag again, with pink tees, printed shorts, and some cover ups.


What I wore:



Jacket: Target Karolina summer kimono in purple black floral
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
TeeCotton On deep v tee in washed desert rose
Shorts: Jeanswest Parker printed shirred short
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

I really liked how well all the pieces in this outfit worked together! It was a little cold for just shorts and a tee so I thought I'd try this dark floral print cover up. I don't always like when I try print mixing with these black printed shorts, but I really liked the florals with this. I think the matching dark backgrounds worked well.

The pink tee is a firm favourite and always looks good with purple, and even though the navy necklace doesn't match anything in the outfit, again it just seemed to work.

Had a nice day, working from home and a playdate for my son, my friend was kind enough to take him for a few hours so I could get some work done.


Last worn: floral print cover up, navy beaded necklace, pink tee, black printed shorts, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC.

Jacket: thrifted Kmart black and white embellished cover up
Necklace: thrifted wood and marble bead thrifted necklace with white string
Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in azalea pink
Shorts: thrifted Kmart pastel soft culotte shorts in floral print
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 


Why I wore it:

This was definitely shorts and tee weather! I liked the brighter pink of the tee against these pastel print culotte shorts. Needed the sneakers for a bit of a drive, we had a playdate up north to visit a new spot to us but one our friends love visiting. While it was a hot and humid day I had to add a cover up for extra sun protection - I feel this white one worked well, as the embroidery isn't too busy combined with the print on the shorts.

Just like in the outfit above, I wore my fig pink Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag again, it's so good with different shades of pink like this brighter tee.


Last worn: embroidered cover up, wooden necklace, pink tee, pastel print culotte shorts, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC (above).

Pink and Navy Skinny Jeans Outfits

Two more skinny jeans outfits I've worn recently. While they are very different, both feature little crossbody bags, pink, navy and prints.


What I wore:




Necklace: Kmart silver long circle pendant necklace
TankCle The Label Amelia tank in indigo 
Jeans: Portmans pink leopard print skinny jeans
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather 


Why I wore it:

This was a beautifully warm weekend day! I got to spend some time with the kids to do a school holiday dessert decorating class that was really fun - and a bit messy! The white background on these jeans maybe didn't make them the best choice for the day! I just needed something easy to throw on though, and these jeans are always fun, especially when paired with blue. I really liked this navy tank with them, and the third colour added through the little aquamarine mini MAC bag. We did have a few errands to run after the class, but we weren't out long, so a little bag was all I needed.


Last worn: navy tank, circle necklace, pink leopard print jeans, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff aqua mini MAC.

TeeCotton On deep v tee in washed desert rose
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Mini 5 zip in pink iris with gold hardware 


Why I wore it:

Slightly less fun day here as I had to work from home! Also wore this back in the spring school holidays in September, luckily hubby had some activities to entertain the kids as I worked from home. It was a cooler morning so I went with jeans and this super-soft pink tee. I felt that wasn't quite enough colour, so added the blush pink necklace and another shade of pink with the mini 5-zip bag too! Comfortable Converse were a must have, and I added the printed cape as well for a little extra layer as I had a few errands to run solo before work.

Graphic Tees, Linen Shorts and Rebecca Minkoff Cupid Bag | Weekday Wear Link Up

More photos from our Sea World Resort staycation for today's Weekday Wear Link Up! I kept things simple and comfortable for our days exploring the theme parks, with linen shorts and graphic tees. the Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag was a good size for carrying everything we needed, yet small enough to leave in the lockers at the side of the rides when we rode.


What I wore:



Jacket: thrifted digital print no label kimono
Tee: Canada bear graphic tee
Shorts: thrifted Kmart turquoise linen shorts
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

Grabbed this opportunity to get an outfit pic after just coming off the Wild West Falls ride you see behind me, so I was a little drenched from the splashdown! It was lots of fun though, although not one of my son's favourite rides. Maybe when he's a bit older!

Although the blue in the graphic print on the tee doesn't match the turquoise of the linen shorts, I really liked the two together! And I added the printed cover up on top mostly for the extra sun protection, as we walked around the theme park all day. I liked those the little mustard triangles in the print complimented the yellows and oranges in the graphic of the tee.


Last worn: printed cover up, graphic tee, linen shorts, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid.

Other ways to wearprinted cover up and dress, graphic tee and jeans, linen shorts and white tee, Sketchers and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid and denim.






What I wore:




Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Tee: Kisschasy United Paper People 2023 tour band tee 
Shorts: thrifted Kmart cumin linen blend pull on shorts
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

Wore this for our trip down to the resort, and quickly realised once we were checked in and exploring the theme park that the denim jacket was a really silly idea for such a hot day! It had been a cooler morning when we had driven down the coast, but warmed up quickly, and the jacket spent most of the day in my bag as we jumped around between rides. I was thankful for it when we went out for dinner in the evening though and it had gotten cooler.

Again, the graphic print on this Kisschasy band tee doesn't really match the rust orange of the linen shorts, but I felt they were close enough together that this outfit worked. Especially with the dark navy Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag matching the black background on the tee nicely!


Last worn: denim jacket, Kisschasy band tee, orange linen shorts, Sketchers (above), Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag (above).

Graphic Tees and Printed Cover Ups With Colourful Jeans

Trying something a little different with these outfits! Basic colourful jeans and graphic tees outfits, both with an extra print and touch of colour thanks to the printed cover ups I added.


What I wore:




JacketThe Kindness Kimono 'Dream Catch Me' print
Tee: Canada bear graphic tee (gift from my sister)
Jeans: Jeanswest Harper skinny pant in Russet
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff MAB Camera Bag in almond


Why I wore it:

My sister got me this tee while she was on her travels recently - I love it! I wanted to wear the basic jeans and tee combo. I thought that the burgundy jeans would look nice with the colours in the graphic print - and I do like wearing these jeans with black. It was a little cooler in the morning for our playdate so at the last moment I added this printed cover up, knowing I didn't want anything too heavy as it would warm up through the day. While the colours are different, I felt they were similar enough that the colours and print worked really well with the tee and jeans, and I loved this outfit!

The neutral tan bag made it easy as I didn't have to worry about any extra colours there, the neutral tan goes with everything!


Last worn: printed cover up, burgundy jeans, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag. First time I've worn the tee as it's a recent gift.

What I wore:




JacketJeanswest Kensley summer tie-dye kimono
Tee: Monsterthreads star print graphic tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Vicki skinny pant in moss green
ShoesSketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff MAB Camera Bag in almond


Why I wore it:

Since I liked the outfit above so much, I tried a similar outfit formula again the next day. I like this navy tie dye cape and with the olive green jeans it's a really good pairing. I added more navy with the graphic tee and the navy sketchers, but I still think this outfit, while more matchy-matchy than the first one, didn't work as well. 

I still liked it and enjoyed wearing it and trying something different with this tee, I usually stick with non-printed pieces to pair it with, so this was nice to change it up a little. Just not something I'd be in a hurry to wear again. Will definitely try the tee and jeans together again though. Can't believe I haven't worn them together before, as the jeans I've hit 30 wears with!


Last worn: tie dye cape, graphic tee, olive jeans, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff MAB camera bag (above).

Red Denim With Blue Tees and Black Bags

Wearing more red denim again, with blue tops because I really like blue and red together! In both of these outfits I'm wearing two different toppers with the same print, just in different colourways.


What I wore:




Jacket: thrifted Cotton On maroon wanderlust floral border cover up
Necklace: thrifted pastel pink and wooden hexagon bead necklace
TankCle The Label Amelia tank in indigo 
Shorts: thrifted red denim shorts
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual plus Mimco gunmetal twisted bracelet stack
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

It's not the first time I've worn this purple printed cover up with red - it's a really reddish print with the burgundy and purple and peach and white together so I really like it with red! Seemed like such an obvious pairing with the red denim shorts. Both of the pieces, just like the Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag and the pastel necklace, are thrifted finds.

This tank was a recent purchase this year - it's a great basic and a simple tank and denim shorts outfit was all I needed for a day with the school run, working from home, and then a quick errand after picking the kids up in the afternoon.


Last worn: floral border print cover up, blue tank, necklace, red denim shorts, bracelet stack, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff cupid bag.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Shelley garment dye tee in faded denim blue
Jeans: Jeanswest Harper skinny pant in Russet
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff medium unlined tote in black with shellac studded dome hardware


Why I wore it:

More blue! Mum got me this cotton on floral cover up one Christmas, before I stumbled across the burgundy one above in the opshop. I am sure to get lots of wear from both as they both feel so different! I paired this one with a lot more blue, with the lighter blue tee and the navy necklace that I thought echoed the different shades in the print nicely.

It was a cooler morning so I went with jeans, these burgundy ones I like wearing with different shades of blue as it always works well. Had my big Rebecca Minkoff black tote bag as we had a doctor's appointment before school, and I need things to entertain the kids!


Last worn: blue floral border cover up, navy flat necklace, blue tee, burgundy jeans, Converse (above), Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag.

Red and Black Tee and Denim Outfits With Printed Cover Ups

Two outfits both featuring black and red, with tees, denim and printed cover ups for a few days with the kids recently.


What I wore:




JacketThe Kindness Kimono 'Dream Catch Me' print
Necklace: thrifted wooden yellow tassel necklace
Tee: thrifted black scoop neck H&M tee (new purchase)
Shorts: thrifted red denim shorts (new purchase)
ShoesNew Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bracelets: the usual plus black and gold beaded bracelet stack
BagRebecca Minkoff medium unlined tote in black with shellac studded dome hardware


Why I wore it:

This was a really fun day! For the Ekka holiday we had a quiet one and attend a local nature walk. It was so nice getting out in the warm weather, and the kids learned a lot and had so much fun spotting different creatures as we hiked. We treated ourselves to some ice cream after too.

I wanted to wear my new shorts right away. I thrifted these recently, and I paired them with another opshop find, this black tee. A nice basic outfit for a bit of walking, and I added the printed cover up and the yellow tassel necklace to add a little more colour.

As I was carrying a camera and our water bottles, needed the large capacity of this Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag.


Last worn: printed cover up, tassel necklace, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote. first time I've worn the tee and the shorts as they are recent purchases.

Other ways to wearprinted cover up and dress, Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote and midi dress.






What I wore:





JacketCotton On Alana Wanderlust kimono in floral mood indigo
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Emma woven trim tee in terracotta
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesNew Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Julian nylon backpack in bright blue


Why I wore it:

This should have been a shorts day! We decided to bike to a local festival expecting traffic to be really bad, which it was. Unfortunately the day was much warmer than I expected, so the jeans I'd thought were such a good choice in the morning I quickly regretted by lunch time. I got a flat tire on my bike too which made the trip home very painful for my knee.

We did have a fun day apart from my small downsides though! The kids enjoyed a few rides and it was good to get out on our bikes. I liked the bright red and blue combination of this outfit, the tee and cover up is a combination I've worn before. I tried a little matchy-matchy with the navy necklace, blue floral print cover up, and cobalt backpack. The backpack was the obvious choice for the bike ride, and really useful. Just a shame I had nothing in it to fix a flat tire!


Last worn: blue floral print cover up, red tee, navy necklace, faded black skinny jeans, New Balance sneakers (above), Rebecca Minkoff Julian backpack.

Other ways to wearblue floral print cover up and pink shorts, red tee and maxi skirt, faded black skinny jeans and blazer, Rebecca Minkoff Julian backpack and dress.
