Green and Grey Denim Skirt and Tee Outfits

Two green and grey casual outfits, both with printed cover ups and again my teal Mimco cocoon bag that's become a real go-to for me since I bought it late last year.


What I wore:






JacketSeed Heritage black printed poncho
Earrings: handmade pink star clay earrings made by my sister
Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Top: Target embroidered khaki tank
Skirt: Salvos Nobody Denim grey distressed denim skirt
Shoes: thrifted Anko Kmart black strappy sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus Mimco Slay to the rhythm bracelet in silver
BagMIMCO vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal


Why I wore it:

This was a fun day despite the heat! The kids had an art class at the library in the morning that was really good, then we had lunch and headed into the city for a very busy Brisbane Bookfest. I really enjoyed the $2.50 book section, and the kids weren't too upset about the long wait to get into the comic section as they came home with so many new comic and gaming books, they were really pleased!

I wanted to cover up my shoulders as a physical barrier against the sun when we were walking around, but it was too hot to consider a tee so I picked this pretty embroidered tank that hasn't been worn in a while. With the black embroidery I thought this black cover up was a good matchy-matchy choice, as were the black sandals. The grey denim skirt of course goes with everything, it was a great Vinnies (opshop) find. 

While the teal Mimco cocoon bag doesn't match the khaki green of the tank, once again I enjoyed wearing this bag with other shades of green. And I had a few big reusable totes for us to our preloved book haul at bookfest, that our water bottles and some snacks fit inside so I just needed a crossbody bag for the essentials.


Last worn: pink clay earrings, black and white printed duster, Tiffany heart necklace, green embroidered tank, grey Nobody Denim skirt, black sandals, Mimco teal cocoon bag.

Other ways to wearblack and white printed duster and shorts, green embroidered tank and maxi skirt, grey Nobody Denim skirt and graphic tee, black sandals and dress, Mimco teal cocoon bag and blazer.






What I wore:






JacketWoven Heart gold floral kimono
NecklaceRoie Designs long freshwater pearl necklace with tassel
Tee: thrifted Cotton on grey tunic tee
Skirt: Jeanswest light olive denim skirt
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual plus wooden bead bracelet set
BagMIMCO vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal


Why I wore it:

Another cover up and another grey and green outfit. This time around I wore a pale green distressed denim skirt with a grey top. I wore this to work from home, with an appointment for the kids in the afternoon. I like simple tee outfits when working from home. 

I added a little more interest to this for video calls and a little physical sunblock with the floral print duster. I like the mix of colours it added to the neutral outfit, and with the blues and greens in the floral print I thought the Mimco teal cocoon bag was a pretty good pairing as well. I really liked this outfit.

Black and Grey Tee and Denim Skirt Outfits With Teal Bag And Navy Cover Ups

Two very similar outfits, both with black and grey, navy cover ups and my teal Mimco cocoon bucket bag. A soft tee, colourful cover up and denim skirt is a great working from home outfit over summer in Brisbane. The printed cover ups add a little extra interest and colour in video meetings and stop the tees looking too casual.


What I wore:






JacketJeanswest Kensley summer tie-dye kimono
Necklace: Kmart blue multi-colour beaded necklace
Tee: black textured crew neck tee
Skirt: Salvos Nobody Denim grey distressed denim skirt
Shoes: thrifted Anko Kmart black strappy sandals
Bracelets: the usual
BagMIMCO vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal


Why I wore it:

This was a fun day! Once I got working from home out of the way, I took the kids to an afternoon event at the library that they really enjoyed, getting a chance to make some comics. 

As I was working from home I wanted to be comfortable more than anything, and this black tee is nice and soft and the grey denim skirt kept me cool. I added the navy tie dye cover up to help with sun cover while we were out in the afternoon and while dog walking. I couldn't resist going a little matchy-matchy with the blue beaded necklace. Even though the teal Mimco cocoon bucket bag doesn't match any of the blue shades in this outfit I really like wearing it against blues.


Last worn: tie dye duster, tri colour beaded necklace, black tee, Nobody Denim skirt, strappy sandals, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag.

Other ways to weartie dye duster and shorts, black tee and midi skirt, Nobody Denim skirt and graphic tee, strappy sandals and dress, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag and shorts.







What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted Cotton On navy zig zag cover up
Earrings: Colette Joanne teal and gold multi drop disk earrings
Necklace: Kmart gold and navy beaded necklace
Tee: Jeanswest 'Lucy' colour block tee in grey marle/rosebud
SkirtNobody Denim Piper vacation skirt in black distressed denim
Shoes: thrifted Anko Kmart black strappy sandals
Bracelets: the usual
BagMIMCO vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal


Why I wore it:

Another tee and denim skirt outfit for working from home, although this time I went with a black skirt and a grey tee, an inverse of the outfit above. Although I did wear the same sandals. It's been a while since I last wore this tee, it was definitely overdue another wear. And with the pink panel on the back I knew this navy zig zag printed cover up would be a nice pairing, with the pink in the print, although it doesn't jump out much in the photos. I liked that subtle bit of matchy-matchy even though the pink panel on the back of the tee was covered up as I never took the kimono off all day.

Just like the day above, I worked from home in the morning before heading out in the late afternoon as I had a few errands to run and an appointment to get to.

I like that this teal Mimco cocoon bucket bag can fit all the essentials plus a book in it, but I didn't have much time to read before my appointment as I was running a little late and they saw me almost immediately.


Last worn: dangly earrings, beaded necklacechevron print cover up, grey tee, black distressed denim skirt, strappy sandals (above), Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag (above).

Other ways to wear chevron print cover up and shorts, grey tee over a dress, black distressed denim skirt and leopard, strappy sandals and jeans, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag and dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: grey tee in third trimester.

Grey Skirt Outfits With Purple

Brightening up some grey skirt outfits by adding a little bit of purple.


What I wore:





EarringsMIMCO fleur stud silver earrings
Necklace: handmade silver and gold faux pearl beaded necklace
Tee: Kmart basic purple tee
Skirt: thrifted pinstripe maxi skirt
ShoesNike Court Royale white and beige sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagLouis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull


Why I wore it:

Needed a comfortable and practical outfit for my son's surgery. The Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote bag fits everything with both needed to keep us happy and distracted with all the waiting around, it's such a good tote bag.

Kept my outfit simple with this little beaded necklace I made, good for my son to fidget with if needed. And I was cosy and comfortable in the grey pinstripe jersey maxi skirt, and sneakers. I thought the purple tee was a nice way to add some colour and lightness to the outfit that would have been a bit too neutral without the block colour tee.


Last worn: silver earrings, purple tee, beaded necklace, grey pinstripe maxi skirt, Nike Court Royale sneakers, Louis Vuitton Neverfull.

What I wore:





Jacket: Target Karolina summer kimono in purple black floral
EarringsMIMCO fleur stud silver earrings
Necklace: thrifted metallic clay bead necklace
Tee: Anko Kmart short sleeve slub v-neck tee in lead grey
Skirt: Salvos Nobody Denim grey distressed denim skirt
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual plus Mimco Slay to the rhythm bracelet in silver
BagPolene numero neuf mini in textured mauve 


Why I wore it:


Just like the outfit above, this felt a bit plain and neutral with the grey denim skirt, and the grey tee. I added a little more colour with purple again, although lighter shades this time. I really liked the resulting outfit though! The purple floral cover up is something I've worn with the lilac Polene Numero neuf mini bag before, I really like the pairing! And I added another beaded necklace, this one was an opshop find.

I had a couple of errands to run and a few things to donate to the opshop that I hadn't managed to drop off before Christmas. of course I had a bit of a browse as well, and ended up with a few more books to replace the ones the kids had grown out of that I'd just donated!


Last worn: earrings (above), floral cover up, grey tee, beaded necklace, Havaianas, grey Nobody Denim skirt, Polene Numero neuf mini bag.

Other ways to wearfloral cover up and shorts, grey tee and midi skirt, grey Nobody Denim skirt and graphic tee, Polene Numero neuf mini bag and dress.

Midi Skirts, Grey Tees and Aqua Mini MAC Bag

The first few weeks back in the office in January before school went back were pretty quiet, so I took the opportunity to wear some casual grey tees to work.


What I wore:







EarringMIMCO fleur stud silver earrings
Necklace: thrifted gold and cream multi strand pearl necklace
Tee: Anko Kmart short sleeve slub v-neck tee in lead grey
Skirt: no label cream and brown floral print midi skirt
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus Mimco urban bracelet
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather 


Why I wore it:

I got this pretty midi skirt for Christmas from one of our pre-Christmas shopping trips, this one is from the opshop shopping day before Christmas. I found it online and so I'm pretty sure it's from Kmart. It's a lovely neutral brown print, so I wore it with more neutrals with the grey tee. To try dress it up a little more for a day in the office I added this statement necklace, it's so fun with all the faux pearl beads. I could have added a blazer to this to make it even more formal, but the day was too hot to want to layer.

I wore my white Converse to be a little matchy-matchy with the skirt, but decided to wear my little aquamarine mini MAC bag for a pop of colour. It's so nice against greys, and other neutrals like I'm wearing in this outfit, and carries all the essentials I need for work as I carry my laptop in my company issued laptop bag.


Last worn: Mimco silver earrings, beaded statement necklace, white Converse, aquamarine mini MAC bag. First time I've worn the tee and the skirt as they were a Christmas present.

Other ways to wearwhite Converse and shorts, aquamarine mini MAC bag and denim skirt.

Perfect for pregnancyaquamarine mini MAC bag in second trimester.





What I wore:



Earrings: Target solid silver hoops
Necklace: thrifted mint silicone statement necklace
TeeAtmos&Here charcoal grey v neck tee
Skirt: thrifted &Me blue linen button up midi skirt with pockets
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual plus Mimco urban bracelet
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather 


Why I wore it:

Even though this is the same outfit formula as the one above, this outfit felt much more casual. Not sure it it was the softer tee or the linen skirt, or a combination. I still loved this outfit for a quiet day in the office though. There were so few people there, most working from home or still on leave, so I smashed through a lot of work and so many meetings at my desk.

It's the first time I've worn this aquamarine mini MAC bag with this silicone necklace and it definitely won't be the last, they pair so nicely together. I wore my blue Converse as well for more matchy-matchy with the blue linen midi skirt.

Blue, Red and Yellow Maxi Skirt Outfits

Two different maxi skirt outfits, both colourful with blue, yellow and red for a couple of quiet days in the school holidays.


What I wore:



Necklace: handmade silver and gold faux pearl beaded necklace
Tee: Anko Kmart short sleeve slub v-neck tee in blu marine
Skirt: thrifted NWT Beginning Boutique Sahara red-orange maxi skirt
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual plus Vinnies blue and natural wooden bead bracelet stack
BagRebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip


Why I wore it:

I got this blue tee from mum for Christmas and knew it would be perfect with this red tiered maxi skirt I thrifted last year. I really like blue and red together! I added a little extra colour with the yellow mini 5 zip bag. It's a fun pop with the red.

The necklace is one I made from some old thread I had. I had thrifted a faux suede threaded beaded necklace and it kept snapping, our climate is not great for faux leather as the humidity makes it disintegrate. So I rebuilt the necklace on thread as best as I could, but had these beads left over. Decided to make them into a little necklace of their own. I liked the simplicity of this resulting necklace.

Very colourful for a quiet day, just a couple of errands to run and an appointment in the afternoon.


Last worn: red tiered maxi skirt, bracelet stack, tan slides, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag. First time I've worn the blue tee as it was a Christmas present and first time I've worn the necklace as I recently made it.

Other ways to wearred tiered maxi skirt and denim jacket, tan slides and dress, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag and shorts.






What I wore:






Earring: candy cane hoop earrings
Necklace: thrifted chartreuse necklace
Tank: Jeanswest 'Hannah' print tank in paradise pink multi
Skirt: thrifted navy viscose drawstring no label maxi skirt
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip


Why I wore it:

This was a much hotter and more humid day than the one above, so I went with this super lightweight viscose maxi skirt. Like the maxi skirt above, it's an opshop find, and with the light viscose and the side slits it's perfect on a hot day. Again I added the yellow Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag, and went a little matchy-matchy with the chartreuse necklace. I think the pieces are far enough apart in my outfit that you don't notice they aren't a perfect match as much, and I enjoyed the two pieces together last time I paired them. I wore my coral brushstroke stripe tank, as it's also a nice light material.

We had a couple of errands to run and an event at the library for the kids. It was nice to spend some time in the aircon at the shops and at the library. We have attended a lot of library events over the school holidays, they had some really fun things on that the kids enjoyed as much as this session. Again I just wore these simple slides, it was too hot for closed in shoes.


Last worn: candy cane earrings, chartreuse necklace, brushstroke stripe tank, navy maxi skirt, tan slides (above), Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip bag (above).

Other ways to wearbrushstroke stripe tank and pencil skirt, navy maxi skirt and leopard print, tan slides and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip bag and floral dress.

Yellow Tees and Distressed Denim Skirts

Wearing two relatively new denim skirt additions to my wardrobe, with some printed cover ups and yellow tees.


What I wore:






JacketJeanswest Kensley summer tie-dye kimono
Earrings: Target solid silver hoops
Necklace: mixed metal hammered pendant necklace
Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in elfin yellow
Skirt: Jeanswest light olive denim skirt
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren


Why I wore it:

Wearing a couple of new Christmas pieces in this outfit! The yellow tee and the navy tie dye cover up are wardrobe oldies, as is the mixed metal necklace, navy Havaianas and little olive Rebecca Minkoff Darren mini messenger bag. The silver hoop earrings are a Christmas gift, as was the green distressed denim skirt. It was from our annual pre-Christmas shopping trips, a score from the opshop my sister got me. I really like the pale green worn with the pale yellow tee.

The distressed denim skirt and tee outfit was nice for a calm day after Christmas, with a trip to the library and then lunch before heading home. Despite having got a whole bunch of books for Christmas, the kids love the regular library trips to stock up on more books. This was a really comfortable outfit and I enjoyed wearing it, great first wear for this skirt.


Last worn: navy tie dye duster, yellow tee, mixed metal necklace, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren messenger bag. First time I've worn the hoop earrings and the green denim skirt as they are Christmas gifts.

Other ways to wearnavy tie dye duster, yellow tee and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren messenger bag and shorts.






What I wore:




Jacket
: thrifted digital print no label kimono
Earrings: gold Christmas present bow hoops
Necklace: Kmart navy and gold beaded tassel necklace
Tee: Big W mustard v-neck tee
Skirt: Salvos Nobody Denim grey distressed denim skirt
Shoes: thrifted Les Tropeziennes Par M.Belarbi leopard print and gold leather sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus Vinnies blue and natural wooden bead bracelet stack
BagMIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold


Why I wore it:

Again, repeating the outfit formula from that first outfit as I enjoyed it so much, and repeating it with similar pieces. A more of a mustard yellow tee, with a grey distressed denim skirt this time, and another printed cover up. I liked the mustard tee with the matching mustard in the print of this cover up, it's a fun one to wear, and was an opshop find. The grey Nobody Denim skirt was an opshop find also, NWT from Salvos. Pretty thrilled with this find.

It was a nice comfortable outfit for a little running around, with a couple of errands to run and a playdate to drop my son off at. Tried to organise a few playdates for him over the school holidays. The only downside of this outfit was that the tassel fell off my necklace. I like to play with it a lot when I wear this, but it wasn't until the end of the day that I grabbed my necklace to find the tassel had fallen off somewhere. I couldn't find it in the house or car sadly.


Last worn: bow earrings, digital print cover up, mustard tee, navy necklace, wooden bracelet stack, grey denim skirt, leopard print sandals, Mimco crossbody bag.

Other ways to weardigital print cover up and dress, mustard tee and shorts, grey denim skirt and graphic tee, leopard print sandals and maxi skirt, Mimco crossbody bag and blazer.

Blazers, Midi Skirts and Mimco Bags

Breaking out the blazers and midi skirts for slightly cooler office days in Brisbane, just before Christmas.


What I wore:




Jacket: thrifted Jeanswest cobalt blue blazer
Earrings: candy cane hoop
Necklace: rose gold and turquoise beaded necklace
Tee: grey marle pocket tee
Skirt: Kmart breeze green broderie anglaise midi skirt
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagMIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold


Why I wore it:

I love wearing this green broderie midi skirt in December, it feels like it's been on frequent repeat lately! I really liked the bright green with the cobalt blazer, it's such a nice mix of green and blue. Added the neutral grey marle tee with the bold colours, and plain white Converse and black Mimco crossbody bag for more neutrals. I wasn't sure on a necklace for this outfit so I went with the turquoise one as a mix of blue and green, but looking at the photos after I do think the navy beaded necklace I also considered may have been better.

It was a quite relaxed day in the office as we had a colleague's family come visit us for a bit in a gap between meetings which was lovely.


Last worn: cobalt blazer, turquoise beaded necklace, grey marle tee, green broderie skirt, white Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

Other ways to wearcobalt blazer and dress, grey marle tee and mini skirt, green broderie skirt in Christmas outfit, white Converse and denim, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and jeans.






What I wore:






Jacketthrifted Zara black blazer
Earrings: candy cane hoop earrings
Necklace: thrifted blue tone flat bead statement necklace
Tank: Kmart teal tank
Skirt: thrifted ruffle hem leopard print midi skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagMIMCO vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal


Why I wore it:


This was a slightly wetter day, still as cool as the one above though so a blazer was a good layer to add to this outfit. I needed the blazer over the singlet in the office as well to cover up my shoulders in this tank for meetings, but it was appreciated on the cooler morning commute as well.

Just like in the outfit above, I liked the marle top with the midi skirt. This leopard print one is an opshop fave. The blazer is an opshop find also, as is the beaded statement necklace. With the black blazer matching the black Converse, and the black in the leopard print of the skirt, this was a nice matchy-matchy outfit. I'd thought that the teal marle singlet would be a good match with the Mimco cocoon bag, but decided to wear them anyway when I put the bag on and realised it wasn't as close a match with the teal tank as I'd have liked. I still thought they looked good together.

Blue Tops, Printed Maxi Skirts and Pink Bags

For a couple of busy days before Christmas with the school run and working from home, I wore blue tops and printed maxi skirts with little pink Rebecca Minkoff bags.


What I wore:






Earrings: Avocado Santa hat earrings
Necklace: thrifted pastel pink and wooden hexagon bead necklace
Cami: thrifted no label chambray tie strap cami
Skirt: Ally Fashion blue border print floral maxi skirt
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAC redyed with Angelus hot pink leather paint


Why I wore it:

This was what I wore on my last day at work for the year, back in December. As it was such a warm day I went with this chambray cami and light floral print maxi skirt. I like the slits up the side for catching the breeze on hot days like this was. It was a very busy day trying to wrap everything up for the last working day of the year, but I still had a little time to squeeze in an appointment before school pick up.

I didn't need to carry much so I picked this little pink Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag to carry the essentials. I really liked the redyed pink shade with the pink flowers in the floral print maxi skirt.


Last worn: avocado earrings, chambray cami, wooden necklace, floral maxi skirt, Havaianas, redyed mini MAC bag.

Other ways to wearchambray cami and jeans, floral maxi skirt with purple, redyed mini MAC bag and dress.






What I wore:






Earrings: mini glitter gingerbread earrings
Tee: teal Strange Planet 'wildly unprepared for the day' graphic tee
Skirt: thrifted SES Fashions vertical stripe maxi skirt
Shoes: thrifted Anko Kmart black strappy sandals
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff MAB crossbody with studs in desert rose


Why I wore it:

This was another busy day working from home and trying to fit everything in, although not as busy as the day above as it wasn't my last day at work for the year. I just had less time to work as I had a couple of hours off in the afternoon to see my son perform, before it was off to sports in the evening. When I was getting dressed that morning I knew that my "Wildly unprepared for the day" graphic tee would be the perfect thing to wear. I went with a maxi skirt again, they are so good in the summer weather, and I like this vertical striped one as it has pockets.

I added a pink bag as I was inspired by the pink backpack in the graphic print, although maybe I should have went for a deeper pink one to match a little better. The studded MAB was a good sized bag for carrying everything I needed for the day though, it fits all my essentials plus easily held my camera as well for my son's performance.


Last worn: mini gingerbread earrings, Strange Planet graphic tee, vertical stripe maxi skirt, strappy sandals, Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody bag.

Other ways to wearStrange Planet graphic tee and shorts, vertical stripe maxi skirt and denim jacket, strappy sandals and dress, Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody bag and jeans.

Green And Leopard Print Skirt Outfits With Mimco Bags

I like to repeat outfit formulas when I've enjoyed wearing them. Green and leopard is a combination I tried and liked so much I had to wear it twice! In both of these outfits I've accessorised with Mimco bags too.


What I wore:



Earrings: Avocado Santa hat earrings
Necklace: thrifted Belle Folie multi colour tassel necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton On The one crew tee in green
Skirt: Target animal print ruffle hem mini skirt
Shoes: thrifted Seed Heritage tan braided sandals
Bracelets: the usual
BagMimco vintage cocoon bucket bag in teal


Why I wore it:

We had a video call this afternoon while I was working from home that was a themed event so I knew this outfit would be perfect for it! Surprisingly I haven't tried wearing green with this leopard print skirt before, it's such a nice combination! I added a little more colour with the fun tassel necklace, but went a little matchy-matchy with the green avocado Santa hat earrings matching the green of the tee, even though they are slightly different shades.

I picked the braided sandals to match the brown in the print of the skirt too, and although the teal Mimco Cocoon bag doesn't match anything in the outfit, I really liked it against the green tee. This bag has been getting a lot of love recently since I scored it on eBay.


Last worn: avocado earrings, green tee, tassel necklace, leopard print skirt, braided sandals, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag.

Other ways to weargreen tee and midi skirt, leopard print skirt and leather jacket, braided sandals and dress, Mimco teal cocoon bucket bag and pencil skirt.

Tank: Jeanswest Jenni basic singlet in Emerald green
Skirt: thrifted Target black stretch denim skirt
Shoes: thrifted Anko Kmart black strappy sandals
Bracelets: the usual
BagMIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold


Why I wore it:

Another day with the school run and working from home, and another green and leopard print outfit. This time I wore a leopard print cover up over a green tank and black denim skirt. I felt even when working from home that the green tank was a bit casual for having my video on in some meetings, the leopard print cover up dressed it up a little bit more, and covered up my shoulders for physical sunblock on the school run too.

With the black denim skirt, the black strappy sandals and the black Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag seemed like obvious accessories. I added a little more green to this outfit too with the mint beads in the silicone necklace.


Last worn: leopard cover up, silicone necklace, green tank, black denim skirt, strappy sandals, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag. First time I've worn the earrings, a Christmas gift last year.

Other ways to wearleopard cover up and shorts, green tank and jeans, black denim skirt with orange, strappy sandals and shorts, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and blazer.

Perfect for pregnancy: green tank at 39 weeks.
