Black, White and Grey Outfits With Pink Crossbody Bag

Adding a little pop of pink to neutral black, white and grey outfits with my Rebecca Minkoff iris pink mini 5-zip bag.

What I wore:

Jacket: The Kindness Collective 'Vienna Awaits' floral print kimono
Necklace: Kmart pink multi-colour beaded necklace
Tee: Jeanswest 'Lucy' colour block tee in grey marle/rosebud
Skirt: Nobody Denim Piper vacation skirt in black distressed denim
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5 zip in pink iris with gold hardware 

Why I wore it:

Felt like I hadn't worn this pretty printed black and white cover up in a while, it was definitely overdue a wear! Kept the rest of my outfit neutral with the black Nobody denim skirt, and the grey tee, although the tee is a little deceptive. It's got a pink panel on the back, which although you can't see it in the photos, was visible through the sheer fabric on the back of the cover up. With that I added a pink beaded necklace and my little pink iris Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag too, for a little matchy-matchy pink even though the shades differ.

It was a very hot day, but we had a nice relaxing one, dropping my eldest off with his friends for a playdate, a trip to the library with the little one, and then catching up with friends in the afternoon before picking up my eldest from his playdate.


Last worn: black and white cover up, wooden bead necklace, grey tee, Nobody Denim skirt, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip.

Other ways to wear: black and white cover up and maxi dress, grey tee knotted over a dress, Nobody Denim skirt and leopard print, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip and jeans.

Perfect for pregnancy: grey tee in second trimester.

What Fits Inside: Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5-Zip Bag

---

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Kmart black and white embellished cover up
Necklace: Kmart rose gold and pink beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton on grey tunic tee
Shorts: Jeanswest Parker printed shirred short
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5 zip in pink iris with gold hardware 

Why I wore it:

Again with another black and white cover up! I like the black embellishment on this one, so paired it with the black printed shorts. I felt they hadn't been worn in a while either! They were perfect for a hot day as they are nice and light. It was a little busy with the school run, some errands, and working from home before school pick up in the afternoon and then a little last minute shopping for a present for a birthday party that weekend.

I wore another grey tee. I like the darker colour of this one, and although I did add a little pink to it as well with the blush and gold necklace, the pink mini 5-zip bag was the main touch of colour in this outfit.


Last worn: embellished cover up, grey tunic, gold and blush necklace, black printed shorts, sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff pink Iris mini 5-zip (above).

Other ways to wear: embellished cover up and denim, grey tunic and green midi skirt, black printed shorts and cardigan, Rebecca Minkoff pink iris mini 5-zip and floral dress.

Floral Print Dresses with Bright Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5-Zip Crossbody Bags

Sharing two floral print dresses I wore recently, both accessorised with little Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bags, and two very different colour schemes.

What I wore:

Earrings: gold pendant chandelier earrings
Dress: Kmart red flora printed wrap dress
Shoes: Novo Tawny rose gold sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip 

Why I wore it:

This was a really fun day! Added the sandals and gold earrings to dress this up a little for lunch and some time at the park with my family on the coast. I thought I'd give this bright yellow mini 5-zip bag a go with the coral dress, and I really liked the result, I love how bright and happy this outfit was! Decided not to wear a necklace, and just a pair of statement earrings.

While it was another hot summer day I felt quite cool in this dress, it's a great fabric for warmer days.


Last worn: gold earrings, Kmart coral print midi wrap dress, rose gold sandals, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip.

Other ways to wear: Kmart coral print midi wrap dress for Christmas, rose gold sandals and shorts, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip with navy.

What's Inside My Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5-Zip Bag:

---

What I wore:

Dress: Atmos & Here Willow printed tee dress
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff emerald green mini 5-zip rocker bag

Why I wore it:

Another floral dress, for a much more casual day. After the school run I had a quick blood test and then worked from home before picking the kids up from school in the afternoon, and a trip to the library.

The navy sneakers look so good with this floral print shift dress, I really like green and blue together! I decided to be brave and try even more green with my bag and bag strap. I find it so natural to pair different shades of blue together in an outfit, but I'm always wary with green! I liked the combination of these different shades together though, and this green bag strap my friend made me for Christmas gave this outfit a really casual feel. I loved it.


Last worn: floral shift dress, Sketchers sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip.

Other ways to wear: floral shift dress and leather jacket, Sketchers sneakers and shorts, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip and midi skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: floral print shift dress in second trimester..

Printed Kmart culottes, Plain Tees and Yellow Crossbody | Weekday Wear Link Up

Shorts and tee for today's Weekday Wear Link Up, thanks to the late summer heatwaves in Brisbane. Got out my Kmart printed culottes, which were a must-have for me last summer but haven't been worn as much yet this summer. Paired them with plain and colourful tees, to let the shorts and the bright yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag be the focal points of my outfits.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted pearl and heart charm long necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed red clay
Shorts: thrifted Kmart pastel soft culotte shorts in floral print
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip 

Why I wore it:

When I thrifted these Kmart printed culottes, I just got them because I already had and loved another pair in a different print (that I'm wearing below). I didn't really think about what I'd wear with them, so I am pleasantly surprised when I find so many good pairings in my wardrobe for them! This clay tee matches the darker rust in the print of the shorts so well.

I like the matchy-matchy of the shorts and tee together, and although the yellow bag doesn't match any of the outfit, I thought it was a nice pop of colour. Just needed a small crossbody as I didn't need much for a quiet day. The school run, working from home, and an appointment at the vets for Cooper at lunch time.


Last worn: clay tee, heart and pearl charm necklace, Kmart pastel print culottes, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip bag.

Other ways to wear: clay tee and maxi skirt, Kmart pastel print culottes with pink and purple, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip bag and navy dress.

Rebeca Minkoff Mini 5-Zip Review:

---

What I wore:

Necklace: Kmart gold and navy beaded necklace
Tee: Atmos&Here rolled sleeve oversized tee in wine
Shorts: Kmart culotte short in navy lemon print
Shoes: Novo Tawny rose gold sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip 

Why I wore it:

This outfit is a bit darker than the one above, but still just as good for the heat! This slouchy deep purple tee always pairs so nicely with navy. I added a bit more navy for some matchy-matchy with the necklace also.

Another super hot day, but a little more running around to do with the school run, working from home again, and errands and visit to the library in the afternoon, so I went with these rose gold sandals for comfort.

Again I wore the little yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag. It's not an exact match with the yellow in the print of the culottes, but like in the outfit above, I really like the pop of colour it adds, especially with the purple tee.

I'm determined to get to 30 wears with this tee and I'm so close, but it's a super soft mix of spandex and modal and the spandex is not holding up too well. I feel the tee gets droopier and droopier every time I wear it, haha! Not something I will be able to keep in my wardrobe for long past 30 wears unfortunately. I had a similar issue with the grey tee I purchased around the same time, made from the same materials, and it's why I prefer buying cotton tees.


Last worn: wine tee, navy and gold beaded necklace, navy printed culottes, rose gold sandals, yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip (above).

Other ways to wear: wine tee over a dress, navy printed culottes and mustard knit, rose gold sandals and maxi dress, yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip and black jeans.

Perfect for pregnancy: wine tee in third trimester.

Opshop Style: Thrifted Tees, Kmart Linen and Preloved Bag

Making the most of the summer holidays and getting in another wear of some recently thrifted pieces with these two outfits. Both feature thrifted tees, and some Kmart linen I recently scored at the opshop. Even though both linen pieces are bright and colourful, I added a touch more colour with my little yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted Eb&Ive black wooden bead multi strand statement necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton On orange and white stripe The One crew neck tee
Skirt: thrifted Kmart rust button up linen blend skirt
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip 

Why I wore it:

I thought that this orange striped tee and the rust linen skirt would pair so nicely together when I saw them in the opshop, and I'm pleased I was right! With all the orange I thought the little yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag was a fun accessory, but I did debate for a while over the perfect necklace, and I'm not 100% sure this is the right one.

Decided on the black statement necklace though as it's a fun wooden bead one, and we were off to visit our friends and their little baby. A kid safe necklace for bub to play with during cuddles was the way to go!

Tucking in this tee was a nice way to show off the paper bag waist on this skirt too. With it being such a humid day the linen blend skirt was perfect to wear.


Last worn: black statement necklace, Havaianas, yellow mini 5-zip bag. First time I've worn the striped tee and the skirt as they are recent opshop finds.

Other ways to wear: yellow mini 5-zip bag and floral dress.

What I Bought In December: Massive Thrift Haul

---

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted pearl and heart charm long necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton on grey tunic tee
Shorts: thrifted Kmart fuchsia linen blend shorts
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip 

Why I wore it:

I was super excited to find these fuchsia pink Kmart linen blend shorts in the opshop. I had so many outfit ideas for them, already having and loving the Kmart fuchsia pink linen blend dress, a fuchsia tiered dress, and Sass and Bide magenta pink jeans in my wardrobe that have gotten a lot of wear. With the high waist on these shorts though I did struggle to find a tee that looked good with them. I ended up going with this grey tunic (also an opshop find, from a while back) so I could have some extra fabric to drape over the top off the shorts so I didn't look too stiff.

With the neutral grey tee and the metallic necklace, again I thought this outfit would benefit from a bright bag, and since I loved fuchsia and yellow last time I tried them together, I thought this little yellow crossbody would be a good choice.

Comfortable sneakers were needed - I got these Sketchers from my mum for Christmas - as we had a busy day. We picked up our son's friend to go to the zoo. It was so much fun, the kids had a great time! I had a couple errands in the afternoon too, so I stopped by the Kmart Christmas clearance and picked up a bunch of 50 cent sale items for next Christmas!


Last worn: grey tunic, pearl and heart charm necklace, yellow mini 5-zip bag (above). First time I've worn the shorts as they were a recent opshop find, and the shoes as they were a gift from my mum.

Other ways to wear: grey tunic and midi skirt, yellow mini 5-zip bag with olive.

How You Can Wear It:

Bright yellow bags can work with bright outfits too! You don't just have to wear them with neutrals. As you can see in these two outfits, the yellow bag looks great with pinks and oranges.

Thrifted Camis, Cover Ups and Black Denim with Mini 5-Zip Bags | Weekday Wear Link Up

Just before Christmas, my local opshop had a "fill a bag for $10" sale that I made the most of! For today's Weekday Wear Link Up, I'm sharing a couple of outfits where I wore a few of the pieces for the first time. The camis and cover ups in each of these outfits are thrifted.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Kmart black and white embellished cover up
Necklace: Roie Designs multi chain layered beaded necklace
Top: thrifted Kmart dusty rose cami
Shorts: Jeanswest Sara distressed hot short
Shoes: Wittner 'Jasmarie' studded sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff emerald green mini 5-zip rocker bag

Why I wore it:

This looked like a nice basic cami when I was in the opshop, so I added it to my bag. It proved a little tricky to style when I got it home though - I don't have a lot of this dusty rose pink in my wardrobe, so I went with simple black and white clothing pieces to wear with it. The black denim shorts and necklace were a nice bit of matchy-matchy with the black embroidery on the coverup.

Then just to try something different I wore my little green mini 5-zip bag. We went to the playground in the morning, to tire the kids out a little before we had some electricians over working on the house in the afternoon. My friend stopped by in the evening too so we could exchange Christmas presents - it was nice to catch up in person again! Even if it was too warm to chat for long.

For a super hot day this was a really good outfit. Even though we were out of the sun during the heat of the day as we had to be home for the electricians, I couldn't turn the AC on because of the work they were doing.


Last worn: black multi strand necklace, black denim shorts, studded sandals, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip bag. First time I've worn the embroidered cover up and the cami as they are recent thrift finds.

Other ways to wear: black denim shorts and stripes, studded sandals and floral dress, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip bag and maxi skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: studded sandals in second trimester.

What's Inside My Bag : Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5-Zip

---

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted digital print no label kimono
Necklace: Colette marble and gold pendant drop long necklace
Top: thrifted no label chambray tie strap cami
Skirt: Nobody Denim Piper vacation skirt in black distressed denim
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5 zip in pink iris with gold hardware 

Why I wore it:

This was another busy day! I was looking forward to wearing this chambray cami - a last minute addition to my $10 opshop sale bag. I saw it hanging on the end of a rack as I was trying to go through everything I had picked up to fit into the bag and threw it in when I realised it had space. I'll need to wear it without the cover up next time, as it has really cute tie straps! The cover up was needed for a little sun protection though.

We had a playdate with friends in the morning, and then a trip to the library in the afternoon before making a start on baking some treats for the upcoming Christmas eve celebrations (as I wore this back in December!).

With the pink in the marble necklace, magenta on the cover up and vivid pink of the Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag don't all match, I thought they were close enough together to make my matchy-matchy self happy. I'll definitely have to wear these accessories together again!

Last worn: digital print cover up, marble necklace, Nobody Denim skirt, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff iris pink mini 5-zip bag. First time I've won the chambray cami as it's a recent opshop find.

Other ways to wear: digital print cover up over a dress, Nobody Denim skirt and leopard print, Rebecca Minkoff iris pink mini 5-zip bag and magenta jeans.

---

How You Can Wear It:

A simple cami is an easy choice on a hot summer day with denim. A light printed or embroidered cover up can add a little sun protection without overheating you too.

Black Printed Dresses With Pink Mini 5-Zip Rebecca Minkoff Bag

Using my little iris pink mini 5 zip crossbody bag for a pop of colour with these black printed dresses for some very warm summer days recently.

What I wore:

Dress: Kmart long sleeve black tie neck dress in floral wisteria print
Belt: came with dress
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5 zip in pink iris with gold hardware 

Why I wore it:

Forth wear of this $2 Kmart clearance dress - such a good find! This time around I pushed the sleeves up a bit (it has elasticated sleeves) for a slightly different look. Although it was a hot and humid day, this dress is light and was good physical sunblock. We had a quick errand to run in the morning and then a pool party in the afternoon. Being such a light dress, it was a perfect bikini cover up as it dried out in the heat so well.

Kept it casual with my Havaianas as most of the day was spent around the pool with bare feet anyway! I had a big reusable tote for towels and this little mini 5 zip bag was perfect for keeping the essentials separate and easy to find.


Last worn: Kmart wisteria print dress, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff pink mini 5-zip bag.

Other ways to wear: Kmart wisteria print dress and sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff pink mini 5-zip bag with stripes.

What's In My Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5-Zip Bag:

---

What I wore:

Dress: All About Eve striped black tee dress 
Shoes: Adidas Stan Smith sneakers in white and navy
Bracelets: the usual plus black and gold beaded bracelet stack
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5 zip in pink iris with gold hardware 

Why I wore it:

Wore this after the pool party - I'd managed to injure my knee in the pool so had my trusty knee brace out again, and comfortable practical Stan Smith sneakers. It was another hot day so I went with a simple printed dress again, this black and white striped one is good in the summer heat and perfect for the school run and working from home.

Again I went with the little pink bag. It really pops against a black printed dress, and it had everything I needed in it from the day before so was an easy choice. Did try dress this up a little bit with a bracelet stack, but I decided it was too hot to add a necklace or any more accessories.


Last worn: black and white shift dress, black and gold bracelet stack, Stan Smith sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff pink Iris mini 5-zip bag (above).

Other ways to wear: black and white shift dress and leather jacket, Stan Smith sneakers and culottes, Rebecca Minkoff pink Iris mini 5-zip bag and blue sundress.

---

How You Can Wear It:

A pink crossbody bag is a fun pop of colour against black! If you have a little pink in your dress (like the first outfit) or it's just a neutral print with no similar colours like the second outfit, it works equally well!

Printed Tops and Black Skinny Jeans With Yellow Bag

Pairing some classic black skinny jeans with my cheerful yellow mini 5-zip bag and some colourful printed tops for some cooler spring days recently in Brisbane.

What I wore:

Top: See by Chloe silk mixed print tassel top from Sheila's wardrobe
Jeans: Nobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
Shoes: Wittner 'Jasmarie' studded sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip 

Why I wore it:

When Sheila sent me the beautiful bag she decorated she included a few pieces from her wardrobe she didn't want any more. I've already put a jacket to good use, and I decided to give this top a wear. It was a quiet day, helping in my son's classroom in the morning, the school run, working from home, and the library in the afternoon.

This is a silk top though and I found myself a bit worried a few times the day with messy kids (including my own) and the delicate silk, ha! I did so love wearing this though. The blue print I originally thought was leopard print is actually an abstract floral print, and it's so pretty with the print mixing stripes on the sleeves. I really liked the simplicity of the black jeans with this - I was definitely inspired from a previous way Sheila has worn this. One day I'll be brave enough to give print mixing a go!

Last worn: black Nobody Denim jeans, studded sandals, yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag. First time I've worn the top as it was a recent gift from Sheila.

Other ways to wear: black Nobody Denim jeans and textured jacket, studded sandals and maxi dress, yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag with olive.

Perfect for pregnancy: studded sandals in second trimester.

What's In My Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5-Zip

---

What I wore:

Necklace: Roie Designs long freshwater pearl necklace with tassel
Tee: Sass and Bide 'New Day Rising' tee in orange leopard print
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip 

Why I wore it:

Trying yellow and orange again! I really like the combination, and just like the outfit above, the yellow bag pops against the black skinny jeans. I think the addition of this yellow bag helped stop the outfit looking too Halloween-ish with the orange leopard print and black jeans.

This was a really nice colourful jeans and tee outfit for a day of working from home and doing the school run. Every time I wear this tee I love it, I really should wear it more often!

Last worn: neon leopard print tee, pearl and tassel necklace, faded black skinny jeans, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip bag (above).

Other ways to wear: neon leopard print tee and skirt, faded black skinny jeans and knit, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip bag and orange blazer.

---

How You Can Wear It:

Black skinny jeans can be a great outfit base for a colourful printed top and a bright bag, as they are a classic neutral.

Floral Print Dresses, Sneakers and Yellow Mini 5 Zip Bag | Weekday Wear Link Up

Enjoying the spring weather with pretty floral print dresses, sneakers, and my bright yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag for today's Weekday Wear Link Up.

What I wore:

Necklace: rose gold and turquoise beaded necklace
Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings

Dress: Jaase Celine autumn leaves mini dress
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip 

Why I wore it:

Oh this was such a fun day! We had a very busy and packed agenda - a day off for getting some Christmas shopping done! I went out with my mum and sister to try make more progress with my Christmas present list. Unlike last year, there weren't a lot of great sales on, but we did manage to fill up the entire boot and some of the back seat of the car with our purchases so it was a very successful shopping trip!

I knew I'd wear these Adidas Superstar sneakers as they are really comfortable and supportive for a day out with a lot of walking. And this pretty Jaase navy floral print dress was overdue another wear! I really like the little yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag against the navy background of the dress, and the autumnal oranges in red in the floral print.

I still have a few more gifts to get, but I have now got the majority of the Christmas shopping sorted which is great!


Last worn: Jaase floral dress, turquoise necklace, heart studs, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip bag.

Other ways to wear: Jaase floral dress and denim jacket, Adidas Superstar sneakers and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip bag and olive.

Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5-Zip Reveal:

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace: Tiffany diamonds by the yard necklace 
Dress: Atmos & Here Willow printed tee dress
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip 

Why I wore it:

The denim jacket looks so good with this floral print shift dress, but was a definite mistake with the weather! We had a little errand to run before school drop off and I realised that the humidity was increasing and maybe a denim jacket wasn't the best choice. Took it off after the school drop off, worked from home, and didn't need to put it back on for school pickup in the afternoon. We had an event in the afternoon to attend and a quick stop by the library, then I started cooking dinner.

Then I got a call from my sister and so I ended up making a quick drive down the coast to help her out. It was an unexpected visit but a lot of fun! I ended up taking leftovers over for my dinner so we sat and had our respective leftovers for dinner together.

With more driving than expected these Converse chucks weren't the best most supportive shoe for that, but I do love the blue against the green background of the dress, and it matches the blue in the floral print quite well.

With the yellow in the dress print, this little Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip was a good bit of matchy-matchy too.


Last worn: denim jacket, Tiffany necklace, tropical floral print shift dress, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag (above).

Other ways to wear: denim jacket worn 30 ways, tropical floral print shift dress under a skirt, Converse and denim mini, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag and blazer.

Perfect for pregnancy: denim jacket in second trimester, tropical floral print shift dress in second trimester.

---

How You Can Wear It:

A colourful printed dress and sneakers is an easy outfit for spring. You can add even more colour to the print with a bright bag like I have with this little yellow 5-zip mini.
