Navy and Pink Pencil Skirt and Tee Outfits With Grey Mini MAB Bag

More office outfits, with two navy and pink tee and pencil skirt combinations. I like how a casual tee and pencil skirt outfit feels a little formal for the office now after 2020 - even without a blazer I still feel suitably dressed up. Both outfits I'm wearing my Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag and my trusty black Converse. Both accessories go with everything.

What I wore:

 
Necklace: Kmart gold and navy beaded necklace
Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in azalea pink
Skirt: Warehouse navy jacquard pencil skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey

Why I wore it:

It was another rainy autumn day in Brisbane so I needed to bring a bit of colour - and this tee is such a nice cheerful shade of pink! Wore it with my navy jacquard pencil skirt, which surprisingly I have not yet hit 30 wears with yet. It's such a nice pencil skirt for in the office, I really like the jacquard texture for something a little different.

I went a little matchy-matchy with the navy beaded necklace matching the skirt, and then classic neutral accessories against the pink tee with the grey Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag and the black Converse.

Last worn: pink tee, navy and gold beaded necklace, jacquard pencil skirt, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag.

Other ways to wear: pink tee and printed jeans, jacquard pencil skirt and green, black Converse and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester, Rebecca Minkoff MAM in third trimester.

What I wore:

Necklace: silver twisted chain necklace
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Skirt: Cotton On 'Mica' mesh spot skirt in dusty pink
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey

Why I wore it:

Another office day, another navy and pink pencil skirt and tee outfit! Again I picked the same accessories with this with the black Converse and the grey Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag. They just go with everything!

I went with a pink skirt this time - just like the jacquard navy pencil skirt above, this mesh and polka dot one is textured and very fun to wear. I like the pale pink, and it pairs nicely with the navy tee. As I say every time I wear this tee, I wish the navy lurex thread woven through it showed up in photos - it's a really nice detail in person and impossible to miss the sparkle it gives! With the silver thread in the tee and the silver hardware on the Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag, a silver necklace was an obvious choice and this one was overdue another wear.


Last worn: navy lurex tee, silver statement necklace, textured polka dot pencil skirt, black Converse (above), Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag (above).

Other ways to wear: navy lurex tee and leopard print, textured polka dot pencil skirt in winter, black Converse and shorts, Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: pink polka dot pencil skirt in first trimester, Converse in second trimester, Rebecca Minkoff MAM in third trimester.

Blue And Green Shorts Tee Duster Outfits

I really like wearing blue and green together! I definitely don't agree with the "blue and green should never be seen" saying! Both these shorts and tee outfits feature different shades of blue and green together.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Delilah long line kimono in green floral
Necklace: thrifted yellow beaded statement pendant long necklace
Tee: black textured crew neck tee
Shorts: Jeanswest Trinity Bermuda denim shorts
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Julian nylon backpack in bright blue

Why I wore it:

This was a really fun day! We headed out to join in a science walk for Brisbane's Big Butterfly Count. The kids had a great time running around with their nets catching and identifying a bunch of different insects. We caught a few dragonflies along with the butterflies, and it was so interesting learning about them from the entomologist that joined us. Although I'm sure that we double caught some butterflies a few times, as the kids kept running backwards and forwards and as soon as one was released someone else was on its tail!

Needed a good practical outfit for a bush walk on a warm day, shorts and tee and sneakers were perfect. This black tee and denim Bermuda shorts felt a bit plain, even with the yellow necklace adding a little colour. So I added the green floral duster on top. Good for extra sun coverage and a little more colour. The cobalt Rebecca Minkoff Julian bag really pops against the green duster, and it was a good size for carrying all our water bottles.


Last worn: green floral duster, black textured tee, yellow necklace, Bermuda denim shorts, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff Julian nylon backpack.

Other ways to wear: green floral duster and dress, black textured tee and printed shorts, Bermuda denim shorts worn 30 ways, Sketchers and sundress, Rebecca Minkoff Julian nylon backpack and jeans.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted no label tropical print tassel cover up
Necklace: thrifted pearl and heart charm long necklace
Tee: Atmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Shorts: Jeanswest Tessa olive embroidered shorts
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: vintage original Rebecca Minkoff 5-zip in faded electric blue

Why I wore it:

I had a shorter work day, just working from home, because as well as the school run I had an appointment in the afternoon. Even had time for a super quick browse of my local opshop before picking up the kids.

Just like in the outfit above, I wanted to be comfortable. I haven't worn these olive embroidered shorts for a while but they are such a great piece as olive goes with so much. I really liked the navy tee with them, and then I added more green and blue with the brighter palm print cover up. I added yet another shade of blue with the electric blue Rebecca Minkoff 5 zip bag also. I liked all these different shades of blue and green together.


Last worn: palm print cover up, heart charm necklace, navy tee, olive embroidered shorts, tan slides, Rebecca Minkoff electric blue 5 zip bag.

Other ways to wear: palm print cover up with yellow, navy tee and leopard print, olive embroidered shorts worn 30 ways, tan slides and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff electric blue 5 zip bag with red.

Blue and Green Midi Skirt Outfits With Floral Bag

Proving again that the rule "blue and green should never be seen" is definitely wrong, wearing two different shades of blue and green in these midi skirt outfits for days in the office recently. Accessorised both with my little hand painted Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag, statement necklaces, and comfortable converse.

What I wore:

Necklace: Eye Candy LA 'Sasha' statement necklace

Tee: thrifted Cotton On The one crew tee in green
Skirt: thrifted &Me blue linen button up midi skirt with pockets
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mica Bag - Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB side zip tote in pale lilac hand painted by Sheila

Why I wore it:

I thrifted this green tee and the blue button up linen midi skirt in the same opshop trip - I knew I'd have to pair them together! I really like the pale blue lienn skirt with the green of the tee, and couldn't resist adding a littl emore green and blue with my personalised mini MAB tote bag. It was so good in this outfit, and the bag was overdue a wear for sure.

Took advantage of the crew neck of the green tee to wear an old statement necklace that is also overdue another wear! It works best with high necklines like this, and as with the bag, I thought it was a great accessory for this outfit. Such an easy outfit for the office.


Last worn: green tee, statement necklace, blue linen skirt, white Converse, hand painted Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag.

Other ways to wear: green tee and pencil skirt, blue linen skirt, white Converse and dress, hand painted Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag and jeans.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted multi strand multi colour disc bead necklace with tassels
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Skirt: Kmart breeze green broderie anglaise midi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mica Bag - Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB side zip tote in pale lilac hand painted by Sheila

Why I wore it:

Another office day and another green and blue midi skirt outfit! I got this pretty broderie midi skirt from mum for Christmas, and while I loved wearing it in December I find it's easy to wear outside the festive season too! This navy tee was an obvious choice as navy goes with eveything! I liked these two shades of blue and green together just as much as in the outfit above, even those the green is a bit bolder and the blue a lot deeper with the navy. This tee is also an opshop find, and covered in some sparkle thread that sadly never shows up in photos!

Added a little more blue with the blue Converse and this multi strand tassel necklace that added a touch more colour against the navy backdrop of the tee. Couldn't resist wearing this mini MAB tote bag again, with the blue florals and green leaves in the illustration Sheila made it works perfectly with green and blue outfits like this!


Last worn: navy tee, statement tassel necklace, green broderie midi skirt, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag (above).

Other ways to wear: navy tee and maxi skirt, green broderie midi skirt and festive outfit, blue Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag and stripes.

Navy Tee And Leopard Print Skirt Office Outfits

I have been loving leopard lately, and so I got my leopard print skirts out again for some summer office days. Both of these leopard skirts I paired with navy tees, comfortable Converse and my Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote bag.

What I wore:

Necklace: gold beaded statement multi strand necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Ruby frill sleeve Ric Rac detailed tee in deep iris
Skirt: thrifted ruffle hem leopard print midi skirt 
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

I decided to wear this navy frill sleeve tee with the leopard print skirt, the navy is a great neutral against the print and surprisingly I hadn't worn navy with this skirt yet. And to showcase the pretty frill sleeve detail on the tee, I didn't add a blazer. Without a blazer, I did try dress this up a little more for the office with the big statement necklace. This gold multi-strand necklace was an opshop find, just like the skirt.

Comfortable Converse for the commute and walking around the office, and my big Louis Vuitton neverfull tote for carrying a few extra things along with my essentials for work. As it was back in December that I wore this, I did a little Christmas shopping in my lunch break!


Last worn: gold statement necklace, navy frill sleeve tee, leopard print midi skirt, Converse, Louis Vuitton Neverfull.

Other ways to wear: navy frill sleeve tee and shorts, leopard print midi skirt with black, Converse and jeans, Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote bag worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester, Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote bag in third trimester.

30 Ways To Wear: Louis Vuitton Damier Azur Neverfull

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Nadine 3/4 sleeve dusky pink blazer
Earrings: Michael Hill stud earrings with aqua cubic zirconia in sterling silver
Necklace: thrifted Eb&Ive turquoise wooden bead multi strand statement necklace
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Skirt: Target animal print ruffle hem mini skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

Unlike the outfit above, I decided to add a blazer with this. I felt that even with the big statement necklace, this shorter leopard print skirt and navy tee was a little too casual for the day I had ahead of me in the office, so it needed the blush blazer. I really like blue and pink together and this blush pink works well with the navy tee and the turquoise multi-strand necklace.

I'm always a little sad the cute lurex detail thread on this tee never shows up in photos - it makes it feel so special when you see it in person! Again I went with Converse, blue ones this time to coordinate with the beaded necklace. And while I didn't need to carry too many extra things with me on this day I wore my Louis Vuitton Neverfull again as it's a good office bag!


Last worn: turquoise multi strand necklace, earrings, blush blazer, lurex navy tee, leopard print skirt, Converse, Louis Vuitton Neverfull (above).

Other ways to wear: blush blazer worn 2 ways, lurex navy tee and maxi skirt, leopard print skirt and leather jacket, Converse and shorts, Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote bag worn 30 ways.
 
Perfect for pregnancy: blush blazer in third trimester, Louis Vuitton Neverfull at 38 weeks.

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
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe 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 wear: navy tee and maxi skirt, pink leopard print jeans and denim jacket, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag and dress.

What I wore:

Necklace:  thrifted wooden yellow tassel necklace
Tee: Sass and Bide 'New Day Rising' tee in orange leopard print
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus orange, yellow and red thread bracelets
Bag: Chloe 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.

Other ways to wear: leopard print tee and skirt, grey skinny jeans worn 30 ways, Adidas Superstar sneakers and dress, Chloe Ethel bag and shorts.

White Denim and Blazers In The Office | Weekday Wear Link Up

Dressing up some casual white denim, Converse and tee outfits for the office with blazers. The perfect topper to make any outfit feel more pulled together for work.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Zara black blazer
Necklace: thrifted Eb&Ive black wooden bead multi strand statement necklace
Tee: thrifted Target crew neck tee washed coral red
Jeans: Dannii Minogue denim high waist skinny jean in ecru
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black

Why I wore it:

I like red and black together and I think the muted coral red of this tee works really well with the black jersey blazer and the black Stella McCartney Falabella bag. The black beaded statement necklace made it a little more matchy-matchy too, as did the white Converse with the white skinny jeans.


Last worn: black blazer, black beaded statement necklace, coral tee, white skinny jeans, white Converse, Stella McCartney Falabella bag.

Other ways to wear: black blazer and skirt, coral tee and leopard print, white skinny jeans and sequins, white Converse and pencil skirt, Stella McCartney Falabella bag with black tee.

Necklace: thrifted pastel pink and wooden hexagon bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Skirt: Target classic denim skirt in white
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black

Why I wore it:

Another day for white denim in the office, this time my white denim skirt. Paired with this cute thrifted tee, which is navy with some sparkle thread running through it. Sadly the sparkle never translates well in photos!

Again I went a little matchy-matchy, wearing black Converse with the black Stella McCartney bag. The blush necklace and the blush blazer are another good bit of matchy-matchy too.

I really liked the colours in this outfit together, but even the light fabric of this blazer was a bit much when the day warmed up, one of those Brisbane spring days that felt like a summer heatwave.

Last worn: blush blazer, wooden necklace, navy tee, white denim skirt, black Converse, Stella McCartney Falabella bag (above).

Other ways to wear: blush blazer worn two ways, navy tee and tie dye, white denim skirt and tank, black Converse and shorts, Stella McCartney Falabella bag and maxi skirt.

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

Tee: Atmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Shorts: thrifted Kmart pastel soft culotte shorts in floral print
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca 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 wear: navy tee and denim skirt, pastel print culottes and cardigan, Sketchers and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC and dress.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Cotton On navy zig zag cover up
Necklace: blush pink and gold beaded tassel necklace
Tee: Kmart Dnight navy textured v-neck tee
Shorts: thrifted Kmart turquoise linen shorts
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca 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.


Last worn: printed cover up, tassel necklace, navy tee, turquoise linen shorts, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC (above).

Prints, Skinny Jeans and Tees With Louis Vuitton Neverfull

Simple outfits for some warmer days recently. Classic jeans and tee combos with statement flat bead necklaces, printed cover ups, sneakers, and my Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote.

What I wore:

Jacket: The Kindness Kimono 'Dream Catch Me' print
Necklace: adjustable coral flat bead necklace
Tee: Atmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

While we had a cold end to autumn in Brisbane, winter actually brought some warmer weather, so it was time to swap my knits and leather jackets back to lighter cover ups, like this fun colourful printed one. The red in the print it doesn't quite match the coral necklace, but they both add a nice bit of colour to this otherwise dark navy tee and faded black jeans combination.

I see the Louis Vuitton damier azur Neverfull as a neutral really, so didn't mind that mixed print against the already mixed prints in my cover up. This was the perfect outfit for a strangely warm winter day with the school run, working from home, and a quick errand after school.


Last worn: printed cover up, navy tee, faded black skinny jeans, Converse, Louis Vuitton MM Neverfull. First time I've shared the necklace as it was a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: printed cover up and dress, navy tee and maxi skirt, faded black skinny jeans and blazer, Converse and shorts, Louis Vuitton MM Neverfull worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester, Louis Vuitton MM Neverfull in third trimester.

30 Ways to Wear: Louis Vuitton Neverfull

---

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted no label tropical print tassel cover up
Necklace:  thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in marigold
Jeans: Dannii Minogue denim high waist skinny jean in ecru
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

This was a much more colourful outfit than the one above! While this fun tropical print cover up is bright and bold enough on its own, something about it just makes me so happy pairing it with other bright colours, like the hot pink tank last time I wore it, and this orange tee this time around. The white jeans were a good way to balance out the bright topper and tee, and went nicely with the Louis Vuitton Neverfull.

Picked the comfortable sneakers for a day with a lot of walking, not just because they matched my flat beaded necklace! We took the kids to the museum in the morning, to see the largest dinosaur ever discovered. After a little stroll through Southbank and the city, we went to an Army open day where the kids got to climb on all the vehicles and enjoy some rides. It was such good weather for it too!


Last worn: tropical print cover up, navy beaded necklace, orange tee, white skinny jeans, Sketchers, Louis Vuitton damier Neverfull (above).

Other ways to wear: tropical print cover up and skirt, orange tee and culottes, white skinny jeans and sequins, Sketchers and shorts, Louis Vuitton damier Neverfull worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton damier Neverfull at 38 weeks.
