Coral Tees, Black Jeans, Converse, Printed Cover Ups and Falabella Bag

Some cooler and rainy spring days had me reaching for my jeans again! Both of these outfits have black skinny jeans, with Converse and my Stella McCartney Falabella bag. I added more colour with the coral tees and printed cover ups.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted no label tropical print tassel cover up
Necklace: thrifted wood and marble bead thrifted necklace with white string
Tee: Jeanswest Emily cotton v-neck tee in coral
Jeans: thrifted Cotton On The High Rise Skinny Jean black coated denim
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:

This was a very colourful outfit! With the red print in this tropical palm print cover up I was surprised to realise that I hadn't worn it with this coral tee before, they seem like such an obvious combination! I tried it out and I really liked it but figured I'd make the rest of the outfit neutral to balance out all that bright colour. The coated skinny jeans are a firm favourite after I recently thrifted them, and then the black Converse and black Stella McCartney Fallabella bag (also an opshop find!) were nice matchy-matchy neutrals too.

Had a fun morning out with the kids - we had to get new school shoes for them as we only got 3 terms out of the shoes we got at the start of the school year unfortunately. But we headed out to the outlets to take advantage of the sales, got ourselves a few extra treats too and managed to buy a few Christmas presents as well. It was a really productive day, and the storm that had been threatening all morning hit when we were inside the outlets so we thankfully missed the worst of it.


Last worn: tropical palm print cover up, neutral beaded necklace, coral tee, coated denim jeans, black Converse, Stella McCartney Falabella bag.

Other ways to wear: tropical palm print cover up and green, coral tee and maxi skirt, coated denim jeans and knit, black Converse and dress, Stella McCartney Falabella bag and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted no label leopard print cover up with waist tie
Necklace: thrifted neutral silicone and wood bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Target crew neck tee coral red
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
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:

While the colours of this outfit are a little more muted compared to the outfit above, it's a similar outfit formula with the coral tee, printed cover up, and then black skinny jeans, black Converse and black Falabella bag. I liked this just as much as the outfit above. Jeans and a tee is a good outfit choice for rainy spring days. I just had the school run and then working from home, so wanted to be comfortable.

I liked the paler coral tee with all the black here, and the brown animal print cover up works so nicely with the muted colour of the tee and all the black in the outfit. I also like how everything in this outfit is an opshop find! The only piece that wasn't thrifted is the black Converse.


Last worn: animal print cover up, neutral beaded necklace, pale coral tee, faded black skinny jeans, black Converse (above), Stella McCartney Falabella bag (above).

Other ways to wear: animal print cover up and shorts, pale coral tee and skirt, faded black skinny jeans and cardigan, black Converse and maxi skirt, Stella McCartney Falabella bag and dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

Colourful Tees, Dark Denim Jeans, Cover Ups and Marc By Marc Jacobs Fran Bag

Taking my Marc by Marc Jacobs Fran bag out again for a spin, with colourful tees and dark skinny jeans with statement cover ups on top for a little extra warmth. I really love this bag, but as it's so large and I don't always carry a lot, I don't use it as often as I should.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted purple and red Paisley print duster
Necklace: silver twisted chain necklace
Tee: thrifted Target crew neck tee coral red
Jeans: Nobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
Shoes: thrifted Seed Heritage tan braided sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Marc By Marc Jacobs Classic Q Fran bag with gold hardware in carob brown

Why I wore it:

I thought this pale coral tee would be a great piece to wear under this purple and red Paisley print cover up, to bring out the red in the print a little more. I think it worked well!

With the crew neckline though I definitely need to add a necklace for a little extra interest and so I went with this statement silver one that hadn't been worn in a while. Originally I was planning to wear a bag with silver hardware with this, but when I opened up my handbag wardrobe I saw this Marc by Marc Jacobs Fran bag and realised it had been too long between wears. I figured the gold hardware on the bag and the silver necklace were far enough apart that they would work well together. 

I had a busy day, with some appointments and errands to run as well as attending my son's performances at school in the afternoon, and then sports in the evening, so I'd taken the day off to try fit it all in. It meant that as well as my usual essentials in my bag, I had a water bottle, my camera for the show, and a book for reading while waiting at the appointment. This bag carries it all so well!


Last worn: Paisley print cover up, silver twist necklace, pale coral tee, Nobody Denim jeans, Marc by Marc Jacobs carob brown Fran bag. First time I've worn the sandals as they are a recent opshop find.

Other ways to wear: Paisley print cover up and skirt, pale coral tee and maxi skirt, Nobody Denim jeans and cardigan, Marc by Marc Jacobs carob brown Fran bag and dress. 

Perfect for pregnancy: Marc by Marc Jacobs carob brown Fran bag in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Salty Crush Haylo pink lace duster 
Necklace: Kmart rose gold and pink beaded necklace
Tee: Spectrum basic v-neck tee in washed lilac
Jeans: thrifted Cotton On The High Rise Skinny Jean black coated denim
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Marc By Marc Jacobs Classic Q Fran bag with gold hardware in carob brown

Why I wore it:

A slightly less busy day on this day, but again I stuck with the colourful tee, dark skinny jeans and pretty cover up outfit formula as before. I had the school run, working from home, and a couple of appointments in the afternoon for both the kids and I, so again I wore my Marc by Marc Jacobs carob brown Fran bag. I needed to bring a book for all the waiting around at the appointments!

My sister got me this beautiful pink lace duster for Christmas and I always admire it hanging in my wardrobe but feel it has to be a special occasion to wear it. Wearing it on a regular working from home and school run day was a good way to break myself of that habit and give this pretty piece more chances to be worn, I really enjoyed wearing it!


Last worn: pink lace duster, lilac tee, blush beaded necklace, coated black skinny jeans, black Converse, Marc by Marc Jacobs Fran bag (above).

Other ways to wear: pink lace duster and shorts, lilac tee worn 30 ways, coated black skinny jeans and knit, black Converse and dress, Marc by Marc Jacobs Fran bag and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: lilac tee in second trimester, Converse in second trimester, Marc by Marc Jacobs Fran bag in second trimester.

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
Jeans: Nobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca 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 wear: boucle 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:

Jacket: Diane 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
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca 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 wear: green 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.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

Red Tees Black Shorts and Printed Cover Ups

Adding some printed cover ups to these black shorts and red tee outfits, with comfortable sneakers and black bags.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Shein black floral print cover up
Necklace: Roie Designs feather, quartz and love charm long necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Emily cotton v-neck tee in coral
Shorts: Jeanswest Sara distressed hot short
Shoes: Converse 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:

This was such a fun evening! I had to work from home, and then the kids and I headed down the coast for dinner with my sister at my parent's house. It's a good meet up point between both our houses. And while we both had long days, it was good to catch up and spend some time together. The boys had been looking forward to it for a while!

I did consider wearing jeans instead of shorts - as it is autumn - but I was plenty warm while working from home, and I thought this dark floral cover up would keep me warm as well in the evening. It did get a little chilly though, and I did wish I'd worn jeans before we went home. Will need to wear this floral cover up with jeans next time. I'll probably wear it with red again too, I really liked the coral red tee with the red in the floral print.

Last worn: floral cover up, coral red tee, feather necklace, black denim shorts, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag.
 
Other ways to wear: floral cover up with turquoise, coral red tee and maxi skirt, black denim shorts and stripes, black Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag and jeans.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Seed Heritage black printed poncho
Necklace: House of Harlow sunburst necklace in silver and grey
Tee: thrifted Target crew neck tee coral red
Shorts: Jeanswest Parker printed shirred short
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff medium unlined tote in black with shellac studded dome hardware

Why I wore it:

Decided to try something a little different with these black printed shorts and add another black print on top. The cover up and shorts are both a black background with a small white print so I thought they would work nicely together. I really liked the combination, especially with the red tee in-between for a touch of colour.

I haven't always enjoyed print mixing with these shorts but it was good to try something different, and I really liked this outfit! Added the practical New Balance sneakers and my big Rebecca Minkoff unlined tote bag for a day in the park. Making the most of the beautiful weather on the public holiday, we took the kids to the local park to practice skateboarding on the boards they recently got from my parents. And then after tiring themselves out on their boards, they were able to run around in the playground for a bit.


Last worn: black print cover up, red tee, sunburst necklace, black printed shorts, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff studded unlined tote bag.

Other ways to wear: black print cover up with grey, red tee and culotte shorts, black printed shorts and cardigan, Rebecca Minkoff studded unlined tote bag and blazer.

Red Tees, Printed Shorts And Cupid Bag

While it is autumn in Brisbane, shorts weather continues! Making the most of warmer days and wearing some printed shorts with plain red tees and my Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag.

What I wore:

Necklace: Roie Designs feather, quartz and love charm long necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One sangria v-neck tee
Shorts: Jeanswest Parker printed shirred short
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bracelets: the usual plus black beaded bracelet stack
Bag: thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue

Why I wore it:

A weekend physio session meant shorts and a tee and comfortable and practical sneakers! I added a little colour to these soft black printed shorts and black sneakers with the red v-neck tee, and then went matchy-matchy with a black and red beaded bracelet stack.

After my physio I went shopping with mum for my son's upcoming birthday. We managed to pick up a lot of things we needed, it was a very productive day!


Last worn: red tee, feather necklace, black bracelet stack, black printed shorts, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag.

Other ways to wear: red tee and blue shorts, black printed shorts and cardigan, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag and jeans.

What I wore:

Necklace: House of Harlow sunburst necklace in silver and grey

Tee: Jeanswest Emma woven trim tee in terracotta
Shorts: Kmart culotte short in navy lemon print
Shoes: black matte slim Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue

Why I wore it:

I really liked the simplicity of the outfit above - a plain colourful tee with printed shorts is an easy warm weather outfit. So I repeated something similar the next weekend! This super soft red tee goes nicely with the navy printed shorts. It's not the first time I've worn these shorts with red, I like the combination. Once again I wore my Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag. It's the perfect bag for running errands as it fits everything I need to carry plus a water bottle, and if I have the kids along like I did on this day, some snacks too.

The Cupid bag was an opshop find a while back, so as well as being a practical choice for running errands I was hoping it would bring me good thrifting luck at the opshop! I picked up quite a few books for the kids. We grabbed lunch at Bunnings too, picking up a few more things for the garden.


Last worn: red tee, sunburst necklace, navy printed culottes, matte black Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag (above).

Other ways to wear: red tee and maxi skirt, navy printed culottes with pink, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag and dress.

Maxi Skirts With Colourful Tees and Matching Bags

Making the most of some very quiet days in the office lately with just a couple of my team members to wear these simple maxi skirts and plain tee outfits. I did add some big statement necklaces to try dress up the tees a little, and had a little bit of matchy-matchy with my accessories, wearing bags in similar colours to the tees in each outfit.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted burgundy and cream beaded statement necklace
Tee:  thrifted Target crew neck tee coral red
Skirt: thrifted Crossroads black ruffle hem maxi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual plus black beaded bracelet stack and red beaded bracelet
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Avery crossbody bag in burgundy

Why I wore it:

This was one of those days where nothing goes to plan, starting off with being late in the morning! Always the worst and meant I was rushing into the office after school drop off. At least I'd planned my outfit the night before so it was easy to throw on and go in the morning.

Felt this black maxi skirt was due another wear. I see a lot more maxi skirts and dresses in the office than I ever did pre-pandemic, and I love it! With the plain black maxi skirt I added more colour with the coral tee, and then stuck with the red theme adding this burgundy beaded multi strand necklace and the little burgundy Rebecca Minkoff Avery crossbody bag. Added yet another shade of red with the red beaded bracelet in my bracelet stack too. Even though none of the shades of reds match exactly, I really liked them all together in this outfit.


Last worn: coral tee, multi strand necklace, black maxi skirt, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Avery crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: coral tee and jeans, black maxi skirt and leather jacket, black Converse and pencil skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Avery crossbody bag and floral dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted Eb&Ive black wooden bead multi strand statement necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton On The one crew tee in green
Skirt: thrifted ruffle hem leopard print midi skirt 
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff emerald green mini 5-zip rocker bag

Why I wore it:

Another quiet day in the office - although I wasn't running late and rushing around on this day and it went a whole lot better! Since I liked the outfit above so much, I did the next best thing for this office day and wore the same outfit formula with different pieces. Repeating an outfit formula is something I like to do a lot, less effort than thinking up a whole new outfit!

This leopard print maxi skirt has been a firm favourite since I thrifted it and I thought I'd try pair it with green for something a little different. This green crew neck tee is an opshop find too! And while not the perfect match with the green Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag I did like the different shades of green together.

As in the outfit above, I added the big wooden multi strand statement necklace to try make this a little more dressed up for the office.


Last worn: green crew neck tee, black statement necklace, leopard print maxi skirt, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip bag.

Other ways to wear: green crew neck tee and pencil skirt, leopard print maxi skirt with red, Adidas Superstar sneakers and dress, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip bag and jeans.

Kmart Printed Culotte Shorts With Red Tees

Wearing my two pairs of Kmart printed culotte shorts with some red tees for hot and humid days at the end of summer in Brisbane.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted gold and pastel blue beaded necklace with grey string
Tee: Cotton On The One sangria v-neck tee
Shorts: Kmart culotte short in navy lemon print
Shoes: black matte slim Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull

Why I wore it:

Wore this to start our long holiday weekend with family on Tangalooma Resort (on Mulgumpin island). I had my big Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote as it's both a good beach bag and a great travel bag! It easily fit some snacks, bottles of water, and activities for the ferry ride over to entertain the kids and I, and it meant I didn't need another bag for day to day beach life.

We left early morning and got to enjoy the beach and pools before dinner. It was a busy day of travel but so relaxing once we got the resort on the island. Last time I stayed at Tangalooma was for our honeymoon, so it was great spending time there again. The kids loved it, really should have taken them sooner!

While there is no red in the print of these culotte shorts, I thought the red and navy combination was nice and colourful, and this was a comfortable outfit for our trip.


Last worn: red tee, blue necklace, navy printed culotte shorts, Havaianas, Louis Vuitton Neverfull.

Other ways to wear: red tee and turquoise, navy printed culotte shorts and cardigan, Louis Vuitton Neverfull worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton Neverfull at 38 weeks.

---

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted metallic clay bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Target crew neck tee coral red
Shorts: thrifted Kmart pastel soft culotte shorts in floral print
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus thrifted cream resin bangle duo set and Polka Luka red resin bangle
Bag: thrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black

Why I wore it:

While the outfit above is all things bought new, this outfit is mostly thrifted, except for the sneakers! The coral red tee, beaded necklace, pastel print culotte shorts, resin bracelets and Stella McCartney Falabella bag are all opshop finds.

Just like the outfit above, this shorts and tee outfit was super comfortable. Stayed in Brisbane with this though, no exciting trips, as I was working from home and had the school run. Needed the navy Sketchers sneakers as I'd injured my knee on our holiday, and needed the extra support.

I liked the washed coral tee with this - there is a little rust in the print on these culotte shorts and while the red tee and the red resin bangle aren't an exact shade match, I thought the pieces complimented each other nicely.


Last worn: coral tee, statement beaded necklace, resin bangles, pastel print culotte shorts, Sketchers, Stella McCartney Falabella bag.

Other ways to wear: coral tee and skirt, pastel print culotte shorts and cardigan, Sketchers and graphic tee, Stella McCartney Falabella bag and maxi dress.

Magnificent 8: Lunar New Year - Year Of The Dragon

For our first Magnificent 8 style post for 2024, we are doing Lunar New year! 2024 is the year of the dragon. And a fun way to theme our first collaboration post of the year.

While the luckiest colours to wear for Lunar new year depend on your Chinese zodiac sign, red and gold are common colours to wear to welcome in the new year, so I put together some red and gold outfits to meet the theme. Neither of these outfits I will be wearing to celebrate Lunar new year (we have a big traditional feast for Lunar new year, cooked by my Asian in-laws). While they are not the ones I am planning to wear, they would definitely both work for Lunar new year!

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted gold large double circle necklace
Dress: Kmart Whsdch Red short sleeved tiered midi dress
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan satchel in Harvest Gold

Why I wore it:

This was another wet and humid summer day! We'd thought about going to the beach but the weather put an end to that when the rain set in for the morning. In the end we headed to a local indoor pool to splash around a bit instead. This Kmart coral tiered maxi dress is a nice shade of red and a great cover up for my swimmers. I had the big swim bag with everyone's change of clothes and towels, so just needed a little crossbody bag for my essentials like keys and phone. This micro Regan bag was perfect for it, and worked well when I ran a few errands before our swim too.

I like the mustard yellow with the coral red of the dress, and the official name for the colour is 'harvest gold' so I felt it met our theme well. The gold circle necklace added a little more gold as well.


Last worn: tiered midi dress, gold circle necklace, tan slides, Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan bag.

Other ways to wear: tiered midi dress for Christmas, tan slides and printed dress, mustard micro Regan bag worn 30 ways.

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Local Women's Handicrafts gold and burgundy silk kimono
Necklace: double circle hammered pendant necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One sangria v-neck tee (Christmas present)
Shorts: thrifted Kmart turquoise linen 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 actually considered wearing this tee to celebrate Lunar new year with the family! I got it for Christmas and it's the perfect deep shade of red, and with the red and gold cover up it seemed perfectly themed for the occasion. I've decided on another outfit, but figured I'd still give this one a wear. Rather than black or white denim shorts I went with these turquoise linen ones, just because black and white aren't as good colours to wear to usher in the new year.

I added my little blue Rebecca Minkoff 5 zip bag for the same reason - more blue! And my comfortable Kmart tan slides which have almost never been off my feet since I unwrapped them on Christmas day!

This was a nice and comfortable shorts and tee outfit for a playdate. I added the gold necklace for a bit of matchy-matchy with the print on the cover up, and because it meets the Lunar new year theme.

Last worn: silk cover up, double pendant necklace, turquoise shorts, tan slides (above), Rebecca Minkoff 5 zip bag. First time I've worn the red tee as it was a Christmas present.

Other ways to wear: silk cover up and white shorts, turquoise shorts and band tee, tan slides and dress, Rebecca Minkoff 5 zip bag and denim.
