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
TeeCotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Skirt: Kmart breeze green broderie anglaise midi skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual plus jade bracelet
BagMimco 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 wearpastel 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
NecklaceStarfish Project Hannah turquoise bead necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Sophie navy v-neck tee
Skirt: thrifted &Me blue linen button up midi skirt with pockets
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagMimco 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 wearnavy tee and jeans, linen midi skirt and printed tank, white Converse and dress, Mimco cocoon bag and blazer.

Navy Tees, Grey Pencil Skirts and Teal Bucket Bag

Wearing my new-to-me Mimco cocoon bucket bag in both these outfits. I scored it pre-loved on ebay as a treat for myself to celebrate something at work. I used to have a couple of these bags a long time ago and always missed having one in my wardrobe, so I am really enjoying having the style again! You will see it pop up a lot on the blog. The teal is a really nice shade that pairs so nicely with navy and grey, as I've worn it in both of these outfits.


What I wore:






JacketJeanswest Nadine 3/4 sleeve dusky pink blazer
Necklace: Kmart pink multi-colour beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
SkirtAtmos&Here grey marle jersey pencil skirt
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal (new purchase)


Why I wore it:

Even with the foil sparkle thread through this tee, the navy felt a little plain with the grey jersey pencil skirt, so I decided to dress this outfit up a bit and add more colour with the blush blazer. The blush pink is something I really like wearing with navy. I added the wooden beaded necklace for a little matchy-matchy. I wasn't sure about the teal Mimco cocoon bag against the pink but I really liked this combination, blush pink goes with so much.

This was a nice comfortable outfit for a quiet day in the office.



Last worn: blush blazer, pink wooden necklace, navy tee, grey jersey pencil skirt, white Converse. First time I've worn the bag as it's a recent purchase.

Other ways to wearblush blazer and dress, navy tee and maxi skirt, grey jersey pencil skirt and printed tank, white Converse and jeans

What I wore:






Necklace: Kelly's Kloset rainbow layered necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Ruby frill sleeve Ric Rac detailed tee in deep iris
Skirt: Target textured silver pencil skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
BagMimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal (new purchase)


Why I wore it:


This was a much more humid spring day, and with the statement necklace adding some colour to the navy tee and the textured pencil skirt looking a little more formal than the casual jersey one above, I skipped adding a blazer to this in the office. It also let me show off the cute frill detail on the sleeves of this tee.

Again I wore the teal Mimco cocoon bag, as in the outfit above I like it against navy and grey, and I felt it was a good accessory. Added the blue Converse for yet another shade of blue and because they are the best shoes for the commute to work and running up and down the stairs at the office between meeting rooms on different levels.


Last worn: navy frill sleeve tee, colourful beaded necklace, textured grey pencil skirt, blue Converse, Mimco teal cocoon bag (above).

Kmart Linen Shorts, Navy Tees and Printed Cover Ups

Pulled out my linen shorts for spring weekend days. Both these outfits feature the Kmart linen blend shorts I was lucky enough to stumble across in the opshop in two different colours, as well as different shades of blue and pink.


What I wore:






JacketThe Kindness Collective 'Kaleidoscope Dreams' printed kimono
NecklaceRoie Designs coral beaded tassel necklace
TeeAtmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Shorts: thrifted Kmart fuchsia linen blend shorts
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote in plum


Why I wore it:

Blue, pink and purple is a trio I love to wear and I liked the different shades of it in this outfit, with the fuchsia shorts, navy tee and the navy and purple printed cover up with the plum purple mini MAB tote bag.

I picked this to wear for a warm yet windy day at the beachfront with my friend. We hadn't caught up in a while so it was good to take advantage of the weather and let the kids play in the water. The wading pool is nice shallow water and the boys spent most of their time there so I wore the shorts as I could stand in the pool with them if needed. And I like this navy tee with pink. The purple printed cover up was a must have for some extra sun protection, and then I added more purple with the plum mini MAB tote bag. While I had the big beach bag with towels, water bottles and beach toys, the mini MAB let me keep my phone and essentials close by as I wasn't swimming.


Last worn: purple printed cover up, beaded necklace, navy tee, fuchsia linen shorts, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff plum purple MAB.

What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted Kmart blue and pink palm print cover up
Necklace: thrifted blue tone flat bead statement necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Sophie navy v-neck tee
Shorts: thrifted Kmart turquoise linen shorts
Shoes: thrifted Seed Heritage tan braided sandals
Bracelets: the usual
BagMIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold


Why I wore it:

Another navy tee and linen shorts outfit, with this turquoise pair. I still added some pink to this outfit with the fun tropical palm print cover up. Once again I wore it for a little extra sun protection, as we had a picnic down the coast with family. It was another really nice warm day so the kids had a blast playing in the water as I sat around enjoying the good food and conversation while keeping an eye on them.

As I didn't need to carry much and I had all the bright colours in my outfit with the pink and turquoise already, I kept the bag simple and wore my little black Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.


Last worn: palm print cover up, beaded necklace, navy tee, turquoise shorts, braided sandals, Mimco crossbody bag.

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


30 ways to wear atmos and here navy marle scoop neck tee awayfromblue



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

5 ways to wear pink and navy tee awayfromblue

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

3 ways to wear orange and navy scoop neck tee outfits awayfromblue

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

navy tee with green pieces in 4 different outfits  awayfromtheblue

"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.

Maxi Skirts, Navy Tees, Denim Jackets and Chloe Paraty Bag

Some spring maxi skirt outfits I wore recently, both with navy tees, denim jackets and blue bags. Both of these skirts were opshop finds.


What I wore:






Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace: thrifted neutral silicone and wood bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Skirt: thrifted NWT Beginning Boutique Sahara red-orange maxi skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe periwinkle small Paraty


Why I wore it:

This cotton maxi skirt was awesome on this hot day! It has pockets too which is always a winner. I wore it with another thrifted piece, this foil tee. I needed the denim jacket in the cooler morning, although when I was running errands later I'd taken it off, as the day warmed up so much!

The boys had a kid's birthday party and I also had a lot of errands to run. I wore the Chloe Paraty bag as I like the light periwinkle blue with both red and navy, and because it has room for all the essentials plus my latest library book for when I was waiting for an appointment between errands.





What I wore:






Jacket: Jeanswest Kitty denim biker jacket
Necklace: thrifted bronze foil statement necklace
TeeAtmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Skirtthrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
BagRebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue


Why I wore it:

This orange maxi skirt is on that is frequently worn with blue. I like the navy tee with it, it's the first time I've worn the two together surprisingly. The denim moto jacket is a frequently worn piece with this skirt though, they look so good together.

Just like the day above I didn't need the denim jacket all day though, with the weather warming up nicely as the kids had a sports session.

The Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie bag added another shade of blue to this outfit and also has space for all my essentials plus my latest library book so it was an obvious choice to carry.

Jeans, Cosy Knits and Luna Blue Edie Bag

With colder winter days in Queensland, I've pulled out some of my warmer winter knits to keep me cosy!


What I wore:




JacketRebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Necklace: mixed metal hammered pendant necklace
TeeAtmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue


Why I wore it:

I really like this knitted poncho. It's too warm to wear most of the year in Brisbane, but on this chilly winter day it was perfect! Just like a snuggly blanket it kept me warm for working from home, and then in the afternoon when we had some errands to run and a birthday present to buy for my son's friend.

With the pretty pattern on this poncho I stuck to neutral pieces underneath with this navy tee and the black skinny jeans and black Converse, I added a little more colour with another shade of blue from this Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie bag, that goes with everything!
This was a cold morning that was threatening rain and I was honestly tempted to stay inside all day! I'd booked the kids in for a couple of school holiday events though so we braved the chill and wrapped up warmly. Got a lot of fun photos too, with a wildlife show (even the lizards had their own hot water bottle!) and then a coding event at the library.

This red waterfall drape cardigan is one that can be buttoned up on the shoulders. Great for breastfeeding in winter and using as a cover up, it also turns into a cosy wrap tunic if you just button up both sides. It's the first time I've worn this red one like this (although I've done it with the navy version of this cardigan before) and I really liked this. I skipped the scarf and added statement earrings instead to dress this up a little, but the cheerful red of this cardigan makes enough of a statement on its own.

Paired it with my dark grey jeans, and again the black Converse and Luna blue Edie shoulder bag.


Last worn: red waterfall cardigan, statement earrings, grey jeans, black Converse (above), Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie bag (above).

Black Jeans, Collarless Jackets and Love Too Bag

Dressing up jeans and a tee outfits for the office by adding these two collarless jackets on top of black skinny jeans.


What I wore:




Jacket: Jeanswest Dixie collarless jacket
Necklace: Kmart black and gold double strand beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Target crew neck tee coral red
JeansNobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
ShoesAdidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather


Why I wore it:

This boucle collarless jacket is a really thick fabric so it seemed like a good choice for a winter workday. While jeans and a tee is a staple in my business casual office, I feel adding a jacket or blazer on top like this helps make it look a little more formal.

I really liked the pale coral tee with all the black in this outfit too, it was a nice way to add some colour without being too bold. I liked the extra little colour from the deep teal Rebecca Minkoff Love bag too, which works well with both the lighter tee and all the black in the rest of my outfit.


Last worn: boucle jacket, beaded necklace, washed coral tee, Nobody Denim skinny jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff Love too bag.

Other ways to wearboucle jacket and skirt, washed coral tee and shorts, Nobody Denim skinny jeans and printed blouse, Adidas Superstar sneakers and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Love too bag and pencil skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: boucle jacket in second trimester.





What I wore:




JacketDiane Von Furstenberg Gabrielle boxy floral jacket in garden green (via Sheila's wardrobe)
Earrings: DIY green and red marble clay circle earrings
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather


Why I wore it:

This was a busy day! My son had a sports day at school so I spent some time in the morning after drop off watching him compete, then travelled into the office a little later. I thought that this silk Diane Von Furstenberg jacket would be good as I wasn't expecting it to be too cold sitting on the side lines of the oval on a sunny morning. It was a little chilly though and I regretted not adding a scarf to this outfit!

Last time I wore this jacket I had a hard time picking a necklace, so I decided to just wear this pretty sparkly tee, although the sparkle never shows up in photos. I added the statement earrings instead of a necklace and I really liked this combination, even if it was not quite warm enough for the day.


Last worn: green silk floral jacket, clay earrings, navy sparkle tee, faded black jeans, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag (above).

Other ways to weargreen silk floral jacket and white tee, navy sparkle tee and skirt, faded black jeans and blazer, black Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag and maxi skirt.

Pink and Navy Jeans and Tee Outfits

Two more autumn jeans outfits. I feel jeans become a staple as the weather starts to cool off here in Brisbane. Both of these are colourful outfits though, with pink and navy as I really love pink and blue together in any combination of shades.


What I wore:





JacketJeanswest Kensley summer tie-dye kimono
Necklace: thrifted Belle Folie multi colour tassel necklace
TeeCotton On deep v tee in washed desert rose
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail 
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAC redyed with Angelus hot pink leather paint


Why I wore it:

It's the first time I've worn this navy tie dye duster and this pink v-neck tee together which surprises me. Both of these pieces are firm favourites, so it was nice to finally wear them together! We had a couple of errands to run and some birthday presents to buy, so jeans and a tee was what I reached for.

I wasn't sure about the washed rose pink of the tee with the brighter pink in one of the tassels on the necklace, and the hot pink of my Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC, but I'm glad I wore all these different shades together, I think it worked well in the end. The black jeans and black Converse were good neutrals with the tie dye and those different shades of pink.


Last worn: tie dye duster, tassel necklace, pink tee, zip detail skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC.

Other ways to weartie dye duster and shorts, pink tee over a dress, zip detail skinny jeans and blazer, Converse and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC and stripes.

What I wore:




NecklaceRoie Designs long freshwater pearl necklace with tassel
TeeAtmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Jeans: thrifted Zara pink frayed hem skinny jeans
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAC redyed with Angelus hot pink leather paint


Why I wore it:

Another jeans and tee outfit for another weekend day. I had a couple of errands to run again, and dropped my son off at his friend's house for a playdate. I thrifted these pink Zara frayed hem skinny jeans a while back, and they look great with navy! This tee was a great pairing with them.

As in the outfit above, I wasn't too sure at first about having these different shades of pink together with the brighter pink of the jeans and the hot pink of the Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag, and although I didn't love it as much as the outfit above, I'm glad I gave this a go.


Last worn: navy tee, pearl tassel necklace, pink skinny jeans, tan slides, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag (above).
