Kmart Orange Linen With Blue Tees, Statement Necklaces, and LV Neverfull Tote

Two fun orange and blue outfits, both featuring the Kmart linen blend pieces I picked up at the opshop back in December, with my big practical Lous Vuitton Neverfull tote bag.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted Eb&Ive turquoise wooden bead multi strand statement necklace

Tee: Atmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Shorts: thrifted Kmart cumin linen blend pull on shorts
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual plus Roie Designs waxed leather cream howlite beaded wrap bracelet
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

I loved this outfit but it was not the best day! Another hot summer day called for an easy shorts and tee outfit, and these linen blend Kmart paperbag waist shorts are great in the heat.

I tucked in this navy tee so it would show off the waist detail on the pants, but still felt this outfit was missing a little something. The turquoise necklace doesn't match anything in the outfit but I felt it was the perfect accessory with this! Simple for tackling a few more back to school errands off the list - the Louis Vuitton Neverfull had water bottles and snacks inside to keep the kids happy while we got everything done.

We did have a productive day and got everything we needed for the upcoming school year, but I was also attacked and bitten very badly by an escaped dog in the afternoon so that made for a very bad day! A little hobbling around for a bit and some nasty bruises for a couple weeks, but all good now thankfully.


Last worn: navy tee, turquoise multi strand necklace, Kmart Linen shorts, Havaianas, Louis Vuitton Neverfull.

Other ways to wear: navy tee and maxi skirt, Kmart Linen shorts at the beach, Louis Vuitton Neverfull worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton Neverfull at 38 weeks.

Louis Vuitton Neverfull Wear & Tear After 7 Years:

---

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted orange bead statement necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Shelley garment dye tee in faded denim blue
Skirt: thrifted Kmart rust button up linen blend skirt
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

This was a fun day! It was super hot, but our friends house we were going to for lunch had a pool, so we got to take advantage of the beautiful weather without overheating! I'd usually just throw on a dress for over my bikini for a pool day but wanted to give this linen skirt I'd thrifted another wear - and it being linen, was so light and perfect for a hot day. 

Like in the first outfit, I wasn't too sure if this orange necklace would work, it's a very different shade from the deep rust of the skirt, but I think it added a nice pop of brightness to my outfit. And I didn't have to worry about it if it got splashed by the side of the pool!


Last worn: washed blue tee, thrifted orange necklace, linen button down skirt, Havaianas (above), Louis Vuitton Neverfull (above).

Other ways to wear: washed blue tee and maxi skirt, linen button down skirt with stripes, Louis Vuitton Neverfull worn 30 times.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton Neverfull in third trimester.

Kmart Linen Shorts, Tees, and Chloe Small Paraty Bags

Making the most of my recently thrifted pieces again! Pairing these thrifted linen shorts with thrifted cover ups, textured tees, and some new pieces I got for Christmas. 

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Kmart black and white embellished cover up
Necklace: terrazzo and wood rose gold bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Mix Apparel black marle tee
Shorts: thrifted Kmart cumin linen blend pull on shorts (new purchase)
Shoes: slim gold Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual (and a hair tie on my other wrist)
Bag: Chloe periwinkle small Paraty with handmade textured strap

Why I wore it:

This was a nice relaxing day on the coast. After a slow start to the day we headed to the creek for a little swim. Cooper wasn't interested in getting his paws wet so I ended up just sitting in the shade with him relaxing, before lunch with my sister and then heading home.

While it was a hot day, this embroidered cover up and the linen shorts were great for the heat. Tucking in the tee, which was also an opshop find, worked well to show off the fun paperbag waist on the shorts. 

Took my little periwinkle Chloe Paraty bag, with this beautiful handmade bag strap my friend made me for Christmas. I wasn't sure if the textured strap, space dye tee, textured necklace and embroidered cover up were too much together, but I think taken as a whole outfit it worked.


Last worn: embroidered cover up, space dye tee, wooden necklace, Havaianas, Chloe periwinkle Paraty. First time I've worn the shorts as they were a recent opshop find.

Other ways to wear: embroidered cover up and denim shorts, space dye tee and green jeans, Chloe periwinkle Paraty and floral dress.

What Fits Inside Chloe Small Paraty Bag:

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted digital print no label kimono
Necklace: Colette marble and gold pendant drop long necklace
Tee: Kmart Dnight navy textured v-neck tee
Shorts: thrifted Kmart fuchsia linen blend shorts
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe small Paraty bag in wine purple (Christmas gift)

Why I wore it:

Another day in the sun, and another pair of Kmart linen shorts! I love fuchsia pink with navy so it seemed like such an obvious pairing to wear this new Kmart navy textured tee mum got me for Christmas with the bright pink shorts. I added the digital print cover up for a little extra sun protection in the playground, and because the magenta in the print works so well with the shorts. The navy Sketchers were a gift too and were a nice bit of matchy-matchy with the tee.

Wasn't sure what colour bag to wear with this but realised my new purple small Chloe Paraty bag would go nicely with the pink and blue. It was good to give it its first wearing as well. I'd been watching this for months and talking my friends ear off about it before deciding I wanted it for Christmas. Luckily hubby agreed!

We had a nice morning at the park and some decluttering and reorganising at home in the afternoon before I headed down the coast for dinner with my sister.


Last worn: digital print cover up, marble necklace, fuchsia linen shorts, navy Sketchers. First time I've worn the navy textured tee and the purple Paraty bag as they were Christmas presents.

Other ways to wear: digital print cover up over a dress, fuchsia linen shorts with yellow, navy Sketchers and grey tee.

How You Can Wear It:

Linen shorts are great for hot days in the sun. Don't forget to add some physical sunblock over your sunscreen too with a light cover up like I have on both of these outfits.
