Magnificent 8 - Simply Red

I had the hardest time coming up with outfits to share for this quarter's Magnificent 8. I was just overwhelmed with choice! We decided to feature red as it's a great power colour, but I have so much red in my wardrobe. Even though I've been wearing a lot of pink lately, I have no shortage of red things to wear. In the end I went with the most red thing I own, a dress, and then a second outfit with just a couple pops of red from accessories.


What I wore:




Earrings: neutral clay disc earrings
Necklace: thrifted wooden yellow tassel necklace
Dress: Kmart Whsdch Red short sleeved tiered midi dress
ShoesRebecca Minkoff Georgina studded gladiator sandals in blush
Bracelets: the usual
BagLouis Vuitton MM damier azur Neverfull


Why I wore it:

This was a really fun day, but so hot! We headed out to try out a new park and have lunch with my family and my aunt who was visiting the coast recently. The new park was wonderful, so many different play spaces and things for the kids to enjoy! It was really good spending time with the family too, even if the park was so popular we had to wait a little to use the BBQ and cook lunch.

Knew this Kmart tiered dress would be perfect for the heat - it's nice and light for hot days, and there was a lovely breeze to keep us cool. I did wonder if this dress quite made the theme for the Magnificent 8 prompt, as it's more coral than a true red, but I decided it was close enough!

The sandals were a must have with the warm weather, and the Louis Vuitton Neverfull is always a practical choice to load up with water bottles for a BBQ in the park.


Last worn: clay earrings, Kmart coral tiered midi dress, yellow tassel necklace, gladiator sandals, Louis Vuitton MM neverfull.

What I wore:




ScarfAlexander McQueen red skull-print modal and cashmere-blend scarf
TankCotton On 'eternity' tank in charcoal marle
Skirt: Target animal print ruffle hem mini skirt
ShoesWittner 'Jasmarie' studded sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus wooden beaded bracelet stack and red gem bracelet
BagRebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag in cherry red


Why I wore it:

This was a much more neutral outfit than the one above, before I added all the red accessories to it. If wearing a lot of a power colour seems like too much, there is always accessories to let you add a touch of it to your outfit!

This grey tank and cute ruffle hem leopard print skirt were a great neutral base to my outfit, especially with the studded sandals. I knew the red saddle bag would be great against them, and it's roomier than it looks! I had all the essentials plus a book in there as while I was working from home, I had an appointment to attend before picking the kids up from school.

Echoed the reds and browns with the bracelet stack, but still felt this outfit was missing a little something, so added the red Alexander McQueen skull print scarf. I like print mixing with these skull scarves, even if I only wore the scarf for the school drop off in the morning, as the weather warmed up so quickly it wasn't needed later in the afternoon.


Last worn: red skull scarf, grey tank, Target animal print skirt, studded sandals, Rebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag.

Blue Tops, Pink Scarves, Cardigans and Skinny Jeans | Weekday Wear Link Up

Two different blue and pink outfits with skinny jeans and cosy cardigans. Both outfits feature a scarf for a bright pop of pink.


What I wore:


thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Jacket: thrifted no label black and white leopard print cardigan
Scarf: thrifted pink ombre tassel scarf
TankCle The Label Amelia tank in indigo 
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

I threw this top on after it was delivered the day before - probably should have ironed it, can still see those new from packet creases, ha! But it was the perfect block colour piece to wear with this fun leopard print cardigan, and super comfortable with the grey jeans. I was just working from home and doing the school run, but added a little warmth and colour with the pink ombre scarf that I thrifted recently.


Last worn: leopard print cardigan, pink ombre scarf, blue tank, grey skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid.

What I wore:

TeeAtmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Jeans:  thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

With the navy tee, navy cardigan and the faded black skinny jeans, this was a bit of a darker outfit than the one above. I thought that the pink and white Alexander McQueen skull scarf was a nice way to lighten up the outfit a little with that pop of pink and the white background. Again I went with my Converse sneakers and my Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag, that has been a firm go-to for me since I thrifted it recently. Nice and easy jeans and tee outfit for my sons playdate.

Leather Jackets And Dresses

Making these two dresses suitable for winter temperatures with the black leather jacket I recently bought at Gladrags Markets. The first outfit, I wore this month and could go bare legged, the second I wore back in July when it was a lot colder and fleece lined tights were a must!


What I wore:

Target puff sleeve tiered denim dress, leather jacket and skull scarf | awayfromblue

thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


JacketWitchery black belted moto leather jacket
ScarfAlexander McQueen magenta skull scarf in roses print
Earrings: blue and yellow daisy resin earrings
DressTarget puff sleeve tiered denim dress
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

This was a fun day! Spent some time with my mum and sister in the morning, getting haircuts (just a trim for me, as I'm still desperately trying to grow my hair out to donate again) and doing some dress shopping for an upcoming event.

Unfortunately the traffic coming back from up the coast made me a little late for dinner with some mum friends in the evening. I wasn't sure how long I'd be down the coast for so dressed for both things in case I didn't have time to change, thankfully. I didn't need the leather jacket for most of the day but I was so grateful for it at night, as it and the skull scarf kept me warm. 


Last worn: black leather jacket, skull scarf, earrings, tiered denim dress, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag.

Other ways to wearblack leather jacket and skirt, skull scarf and stripes, tiered denim dress and red, blue Converse and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag in the office.

Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Dress: thrifted no label pastel floral print babydoll dress
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
Bagthrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue


Why I wore it:

A super cold morning meant layering up this little light pastel floral print viscose babydoll dress a bit for the school run and some errands. With the black fleece lined tights, black ankle boots and the black leather jacket and dark navy Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag, I feel the pretty pastel floral print on this dress stands out really well. I added a little bit of matching with the floral print with my daisy earrings, although the colours are completely different I liked the additional florals against all the dark black.


Last worn: daisy earrings (above), leather jacket (above), Tiffany necklace, pastel floral dress, black ankle boots, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag (above).

Leather Jackets and Maxi Skirts

Just like in Monday's post, I took advantage of the cooler temperatures to wear another winter piece, my leather jackets, before it's too far into spring to enjoy them! Wearing both of my black leather jackets with some comfortable maxi skirts, and Chloe bags.


What I wore:

black leather jacket purple tee and black maxi skirt with chloe marcie bag | awayfromblue

Chloe Marcie medium shoulder bag in nut worn over the shoulder with black leather jacket | awayfromtheblue


JacketAsos Black by Markus Lupfer printed leather jacket
Earrings: Prouds gold and silver spiral drop earrings
Necklace: personalised gold children's names charm necklace
TeeAtmos&Here rolled sleeve oversized tee in wine
Skirt: thrifted Crossroads black ruffle hem maxi skirt
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
BagChloe Marcie medium shoulder bag in nut


Why I wore it:

Wore this for Father's day and I absolutely loved this outfit! Not too impressed with the photos, this slouchy tee always looks so rumpled in the pics, but it is super soft and the deep purple/burgundy shade was nice with the black leather jacket and the black maxi skirt. I thought pairing the black leather jacket with the black skirt would bring out the print on the jacket a little more, but it's still as subtle as ever!

This was the perfect outfit for a bit of an overcast day. Luckily our plans for the day weren't derailed by the rain - I took hubby and the kids to Australia's biggest retro arcade for Father's Day. It was a surprise for the kids too as I knew if I'd told them where we were going they would have been too excited to not tell their Dad! 😂 All the machines were free play, so we just had to pay an entry fee and then unlimited games. We ended up spending so much time there, definitely good value for money!

Took my Chloe Marcie bag so I could have some snacks for the kids and our water bottles, it's such a big bag for that.


Last worn: printed leather jacket, spiral earrings, burgundy tee, gold charm necklace, black maxi skirt, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag, Adidas Superstar sneakers.

Wardrobe Tour & Handbag Storage:






What I wore:

awayfromblue chloe small periwinkle paraty bag and grey maxi skirt | awayfromblue


JacketJeanswest black leather moto jacket
ScarfAlexander McQueen skull scarf in light blue
TeeCotton On deep v tee in washed desert rose
Skirt: thrifted pinstripe maxi skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
BagChloe periwinkle small Paraty


Why I wore it:

This day was a bit colder and a lot less fun than the weekend at the arcade above! Wore a plain black leather jacket this time, with the grey pinstripe maxi skirt that I felt hadn't been worn in a while and was due another wear. I like pink and grey together so this pink tee was an obvious choice, although I did cover most of it up with the blue Alexander McQueen scarf! I thought the scarf was a nice compliment with the periwinkle Chloe Paraty bag though, even if the shades don't match exactly.

After the school drop off I had an appointment in the morning, working from home, then picking the kids up and taking them to an appointment for my son in the afternoon. Busy day!
 


How You Can Wear It:

Maxi skirts are great for cooler days as they keep your legs covered up. They are so easy to layer too, with leggings underneath on really cold winter days, and a leather jacket and maybe even a scarf on top to stay cosy.

Black, Burgundy and Grey Jeans Outfits With Turquoise Bag

Two burgundy, black and grey jeans and tee outfits, accessorised with my little turquoise Balenciaga First bag. Both outfits have similar colour schemes and follow the same basic formula, but I didn't love them both equally!


What I wore:

burgundy tee and turquoise accessories with black and white knit and grey jeans and sneakers | awayfromtheblue

cosy black and white knit with Balenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India | awayfromtheblue


JacketRebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Necklace: rose gold and turquoise beaded necklace
TeeAtmos&Here rolled sleeve oversized tee in wine
JeansNobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
ShoesAdidas Stan Smith sneakers in white and navy
Bracelets: the usual
BagBalenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India


Why I wore it:

I really liked this outfit! Taking full advantage of this cosy knitted poncho, I didn't need to wear a scarf in that winter morning, so I chose this little turquoise and gold beaded necklace. While it's lighter than the almost teal turquoise of the Balenciaga First bag, I really liked the two together, and loved the colour they added to the deep burgundy (almost purple) tee. The grey Nobody Denim jeans were a sale find last year and they really should be worn more, such a nice wash that goes with everything!

Comfy sneakers for a quiet day with working from home and the school run. I thought that these white Stan Smiths went nicely with the white pattern on the knit. Such a comfortable outfit, I really liked this.


Last worn: knitted kimono, burgundy tee, turquoise beaded necklace, grey Nobody Denim jeans, Stan Smith sneakers, Balenciaga turquoise first bag.

Tee: thrifted black and white space dye peplum tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Harper skinny pant in Russet
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagBalenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India


Why I wore it:

Since I liked the outfit above so much, I planned to wear an outfit with a similar formula a few days later. With burgundy jeans this time, a black tee, and a grey cardigan. Again I went with the little Balenciaga bag which I think goes so well with this outfit.

The day was a lot colder than I expected though, and so I ended up changing the black scoop neck tee that I'd planned to wear out with this crew neck peplum tee, and added a scarf. As these were last minute changes before rushing out the door to get the kids to school I'm really not sure all the pieces worked as well together as the pieces in the outfit above did. I felt maybe a plain black tee like I'd planned would have been better with the skull print scarf. Although I liked the colours in this outfit, definitely felt more comfortable in the first one. Luckily it was another similar day, with the school run, working from home and then a little errand in the afternoon, so it was quite quiet.


Last worn: grey cardigan, peplum tee, red skull scarf, burgundy jeans, Converse, Balenciaga first bag (above).

How You Can Wear It:

Jeans and a tee is always a staple, and adding a little burgundy with the grey and black neutrals is a nice way to add some more colour to your outfit. A little colourful bag is an extra pop too!

Linen Outfits In Winter: Magnificent 8 Style Challenge

It's time for another Magnificent 8 collaboration post! This quarter's theme is linen. Very easy for the 7 other ladies in the US to do, where it's summer right now, but it required a little more planning to wear some linen outfits in winter here in Australia! Surprisingly I was able to come up with 2 perfect winter outfits, both featuring bright and colourful linen pieces.


What I wore:

alexander mcqueen skull scarf with denim jacket linen blend kmart fuchsia dress with ankle boots leggings winter | awayfromblue

denim jacket with Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue | awayfromtheblue


Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
ScarfAlexander McQueen skull scarf in light blue
Dress: thrifted Kmart short sleeve godet skirt linen blend dress in fuchsia
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue


Why I wore it:

I love wearing this bright fuchsia dress on a rainy day! This was a warmer winter day thanks to the rain and cloud cover so it was fine to go partially bare armed with this denim jacket. When I thrifted this dress back in November last year (for just $1!) I knew it was a piece I could try wearing year round. It was the first thing that came to mind when Jodie suggested the linen theme for our Magnificent 8 collaboration.

Adding the pretty blue skull scarf, denim jacket, and leggings and ankle boots was an easy way to make this summer dress much more suitable for winter temperatures. I decided to leave the dress unbelted too as the denim jacket added a bit of waist definition.

I really liked this outfit, even if the linen dress did get a bit crushed, with taking the kids to and from their school holiday program, and working from home during the day. Was perfectly colourful and cosy in this, such a good winter outfit!


Last worn: denim jacket, pastel skull scarf, fuchsia linen blend dress, ankle boots, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag.

My Rebecca Minkoff Handbag Collection:






What I wore:

moto denim jacket with yellow linen tassel blend scarf and navy stripe dress knee high boots rebecca minkoff edie bag | awayfromtheblue

navy stripe dress and Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue | awayfromtheblue


Jacket: Jeanswest Kitty denim biker jacket
Scarf: Love Quotes knotted tassel linen scarf in sunshine yellow
Dress: thrifted Kmart white and navy long sleeve stripe tee dress
ShoesAsos Cleo leather boots in tan
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue


Why I wore it:

I actually felt really overdressed in this outfit at lunchtime, as I wore this back at the start of July, on a beautifully sunny weekend when it got hot in the middle of the day. It was a cold morning though and we had an early start with my son off for a playdate at his friend's house. We are at the stage of drop off and leave them for a few hours playdates which is an adjustment for me - but he loves it! When I went to go pick him back up at lunch time from one of his best friend's houses the jacket definitely wasn't needed - the day had heated up so nicely!

It's not the first time I've layered up a summer dress with this cosy yellow scarf - I love how it pops against the light blue of the denim moto jacket and the navy stripes on the dress. Linen is a nice light fabric, but there is so much of it in this linen tassel scarf that it keeps me quite cosy! And is beautifully colourful too.

Again I wore my Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag - so nice with the different shades of blue in the outfit.


Last worn: moto denim jacket, yellow linen scarf, navy stripe dress, tan knee high boots, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag (above).

Other ways to wearmoto denim jacket in double denim outfit, yellow linen scarf and maxi dress, navy stripe dress with pink scarf, tan knee high boots worn 30 ways, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag and culottes.


How You Can Wear It:

While it might be tricky pulling off big chunky winter knits in summer, you can definitely wear linen year round! Make sure to layer up with a scarf, cosy jacket, some boots and maybe even leggings!

Maxi Skirts In Winter With Striped Tees, Scarves, Boots and Denim Jackets

Layering up my maxi skirts to ger some wear from them in winter, with striped tees, cosy scarves, denim jackets and boots. Despite the different colours in both of these outfits, the neutral small Chloe Ethel bag was a great accessory with both.


What I wore:

cobalt scarf, denim jacket, striped tee and orange maxi skirt with knee high boots chloe ethel bag | awayfromblue

orange maxi skirt with Chloe small Ethel bag in light khaki | awayfromtheblue


Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
ScarfMarc by Marc Jacobs bright blue stole
TeeAtmos&Here navy stripe v-neck tee
Skirtthrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
ShoesAsos Cleo leather boots in tan
Bracelets: the usual plus pearl and rose gold bracelet stack
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

I really like blue and orange together, and I love this ochre maxi skirt with stripes. It's not the first time I've worn this navy stripe tee with the orange skirt, but it is a bit more layered up this time than last time! It was a chilly morning for the school run. Although this cobalt scarf covers up most of the striped tee I really liked the different shades of blue together, especially with the dark denim jacket on top.

Because this maxi skirt has side splits and I didn't want my legs to freeze I wore my leather knee high boots under this to keep cosy! It worked well.

I worked from home while the kids were in school and we stopped off at the park in the afternoon to grab a few more branches for our stick insect to eat. Ended up running into friends and the boys saw a few classmates there too, so we stayed for quite a while and I did wish I'd added leggings under the skirt when it started to get cooler in the afternoon. Luckily we weren't out for too long as we had to get back home to get ready for sports in the evening.


Last worn: denim jacket, cobalt scarf, navy stripe tee, ochre maxi skirt, tan boots, Chloe small Ethel bag in light khaki.

Chloe Ethel Reveal:







What I wore:

denim jacket and Chloe small Ethel bag in light khaki worn on arm | awayfromtheblue



Jacket: Jeanswest Kitty denim biker jacket
ScarfAlexander McQueen pink pashmina in skull and floral print
TeeAtmos&Here oversized stripe tee
Skirt: thrifted Crossroads black ruffle hem maxi skirt
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

Unlike the outfit above, with the black maxi skirt, pale denim jacket and grey striped tee this outfit was looking a bit bland. The pink and yellow Alexander McQueen skull scarf was the perfect pop of colour to brighten it up a bit! And I like how this reminds me of Sheila and her pink and yellow skull scarf, although hers is a different print she got lucky and found it second hand, I picked this up on sale.

Again I went with boots, just ankle boots this time as the long ruffle hem on this skirt doesn't have any side splits. Was a nice comfortable outfit for a busy day with an appointment, a couple of errands, and a stop at the library for the kids and I to stock up on more books for the weekend.


Last worn: moto denim jacket, pink skull scarf, grey stripe tee, black maxi skirt, black ankle boots, Chloe Ethel (above).

How You Can Wear It:
