Green and Blue Jeans and Tee Outfits

I really like wearing green and blue together. Both these jeans and tee outfits feature blue and green together in different shades, and I like the colour combinations in each outfit. 


What I wore:






JacketCotton On Alana Wanderlust kimono in floral mood indigo
Necklace: Kmart gold and navy beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton On The one crew tee in green
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
Shoes: thrifted Anko Kmart black strappy sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus jade beads and Roie Designs bracelets
BagRebecca Minkoff emerald green mini 5-zip rocker bag


Why I wore it:

Jeans and a tee has become a staple for me while working from home this spring! I liked the printed cover up on top of the green tee, it adds a little interest when on a video call. With the blue printed cover up against the green tee I added the navy and gold necklace for an extra contrast. Doesn't match the blue in the print at all but I liked the different shades of blue in this outfit.

Added more green as well with the green Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag. Like the necklace and cover up, the shade doesn't match the tee, but again I liked both shades in this outfit.

Kept the rest simple with my black jeans and black strappy sandals, for doing the school run in the morning and evening.


Last worn: Cotton On cover up, green tee, navy beaded necklace, zip detail jeans, strappy sandals, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag.

Other ways to wearCotton On cover up and skirt, green tee and shorts, zip detail jeans and graphic tee, strappy sandals and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag and shorts.







What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted Cotton On navy zig zag cover up
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
Tee: grey marle pocket tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Vicki skinny pant in moss green
Shoes: thrifted Anko Kmart black strappy sandals
Bracelets: the usual
BagBalenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India with handmade textured strap


Why I wore it:


Another school run and working from home outfit, with sports in the evening after school. The navy beaded necklace is more of a match with the navy chevron print cover up. I tried to match the turquoise in the print with the Balenciaga first bag, although I'm not sure the print shows that turquoise so well in the photos. It still made my matchy-matchy self happy though!

These olive green jeans were due another wear, they are a pair I've exceeded 30 wears with and I have worn them a lot with grey tees, although it's the first time I've worn them with this tee. Wore the same black strappy sandals as I did in the outfit above, they are very comfortable.


Last worn: navy print cover up, navy beaded necklace, grey tee, olive jeans, black strappy sandals (above), Balenciaga First bag.

Striped Tees, Skinny Jeans And Colourful Blazers With Balenciaga Bags

Adding some colour and a little more formality to casual striped tee and jeans outfit for the office with these bold and colourful blazers. Both blazers are preloved finds and  they are great additions to my work wardrobe.


What I wore:






Jacket: Glassons orange jersey blazer
Necklace: Jeanswest Taryn turquoise tassel bead necklace
TeeCotton On The One fitted v tee in eddy stripe white / red terracotta
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
BagBalenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India with handmade textured strap


Why I wore it:

I've been enjoying wearing oranges and reds together. It's a very autumnal colour scheme, but this combination of the burgundy striped tee and the orange blazer was so subtle it felt like it worked well for spring. The faded black skinny jeans and the white Converse were a comfortable choice and nice neutrals, so I added a little extra colour with the Balenciaga first bag, which really pops against the orange blazer. The turquoise tassel necklace was a nice bit of matchy-matchy with it too.

It was a quiet, mostly sitting at my desk day, so jeans and a tee was perfect for my relaxed office. I did forget to throw the blazer back on for a meeting I had, but the meeting room was quite warm so it was better I didn't have that extra layer!


Last worn: orange blazer, burgundy stripe tee, turquoise tassel necklace, faded black skinny jeans, white leather Converse, bag strapBalenciaga first bag.

Other ways to wearorange blazer and skirt, burgundy stripe tee and maxi skirt, faded black skinny jeans and leather jacket, white leather Converse and dress, Balenciaga first bag and shorts.






What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted Jeanswest cobalt blue blazer
Necklace: rose gold and turquoise beaded necklace
TeeCotton On "The One" fitted v tee in Cole stripe white moonlight
JeansNobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
BagBalenciaga Day bag in 2005 magenta


Why I wore it:

Another outfit following the same formula, showing how fun a bright blazer is even over a simple jeans and tee outfit. Again I went with a striped tee and black skinny jeans. The blue blazer, blue beaded necklace and blue Converse sneakers are all different shades but they work so well together. I can never have too many shades of blue in an outfit!

With all the black and blue, I added another bright Balenciaga bag. Like in the outfit above, I like the bright combination of the contrasting bag and blazer. And the magenta Balenciaga day bag was definitely overdue another wear, it's been a while since I last wore it!


Last worn: cobalt blue blazer, striped tee, beaded necklace, Nobody denim jeans, blue Converse, magenta Balenciaga day bag.

Orange Maxi Skirts, White Tees and Mimco Black Crossbody Bag

Another easy outfit formula repeated twice. Two orange maxi skirt outfits with white tees and my little black Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.


What I wore:






Necklace: thrifted burgundy and cream beaded statement necklace
TeeAtmos & Here white essential v-neck tee
Skirtthrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual
BagMIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold


Why I wore it:

Felt like it had been a while since I'd last worn this orange maxi skirt, so got it out again to wear to church. I liked the simple white tee with it, but felt it needed a little more and this statement beaded necklace was perfect. The burgundy and natural wood beads work so well with the ochre maxi skirt and look good against the plain white tee. I added simple sandals as it was a hot day, and my little black Mimco crossbody bag.


Last worn: white v-neck tee, statement beaded necklace, ochre maxi skirt, sandals, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

Other ways to wearwhite v-neck tee and denim skirt, ochre maxi skirt and knit, sandals and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and jeans.






What I wore:






Necklace: thrifted multi strand multi colour disc bead necklace with tassels
TeeCotton On The One Deep V tee in marle nep white body black
Skirt: thrifted NWT Beginning Boutique Sahara red-orange maxi skirt
ShoesLes Tropeziennes Par M.Belarbi leopard print and gold leather sandals
Bracelets: the usual
BagMIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold


Why I wore it:

Since I liked the outfit above so much, I recreated it again following the same outfit formula, with this bright coral maxi skirt. It's a beautiful bright redish-orange in person and I love how colourful it is. It was NWT at the opshop for just $7 too, such a bargain! I wore my textured white tee with it to add a little more detail, but still added a statement necklace on top. This multi strand tassel one is nice and colourful.

Wore another pair of sandals as well. These ones, like the skirt and necklace, were an opshop find too. Good outfit for a day of working from home, doing the school run, and running a couple of errands. I didn't need to carry more than the essentials, so I wore my Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag again.


Last worn: white tee, statement necklace, colourful maxi skirt, leopard print sandals, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag (above).

Other ways to wearwhite tee and shorts, colourful maxi skirt and leather jacket, leopard print sandals and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and blazer.

Jeans, Tees and Blue Balenciaga Bags

Some simple jeans and tee outfits I wore recently, that I added some colourful necklaces and blue Balenciaga bags too.


What I wore:






JacketThe Kindness Kimono 'Dream Catch Me' print
Necklace: adjustable coral flat bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton on grey tunic tee
Jeans: thrifted Cotton On The High Rise Skinny Jean black coated denim
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagBalenciaga First bag in 2006 Blue India


Why I wore it:

This grey tunic tee with the black coated jeans is a combination I've worn before, but this time around I tucked the tunic in and added some more colourful accessories. Last time I wore the two together, it was a more neutral outfit. But I added the printed cover up for a little extra colour and interest, and then the coral necklace as I felt it matched the colours in the print nicely.

I kept the shoes neutral with the black Converse, good for running around a little as I had the school run as well as working from home. Did add more colour with the turquoise blue Balenciaga first bag though, I really like how it pops against neutrals like the jeans and tee.



Last worn: printed cover up, coral necklace, grey tunic, coated jeans, Converse, Balenciaga first bag.

Other ways to wearprinted cover up and skirt, grey tunic and shorts, coated jeans and knitConverse and dress, Balenciaga first bag and band tee.

Perfect for pregnancyConverse in second trimester.





What I wore:






Necklace: thrifted multi strand multi colour disc bead necklace with tassels
Tee: thrifted black and white space dye peplum tee
Jeans: thrifted Zara pink frayed hem skinny jeans
Shoes: thrifted Seed Heritage tan braided sandals
Bracelets: the usual
BagBalenciaga giant hardware Day bag in 2009 tempete


Why I wore it:

Another blue Balenciaga bag! I picked my Balenciaga day as I hadn't worn it in a while and I needed a big bag to fit a book and some water bottles as I accompanied my son to a birthday party at an indoor play area. It was loud so I was intending on hiding in a corner and reading my book, but one of my friends was there with her child who was also attending so I chatted with her instead.

Kept it simple again with a jeans and tee outfit, although I changed it up a little with the peplum tee and the colourful pink jeans. Both the peplum top and jeans are opshop finds, as is the layered tassel necklace I added for a little more colour.


Last worn: peplum tee, tassel necklace, pink jeans, braided sandals, Balenciaga tempete day bag.

Other ways to wearpeplum tee and shorts, pink jeans and knit, braided sandals and dress, Balenciaga tempete day bag and skirt.

Kmart Linen Shorts, Navy Tees and Printed Cover Ups

Pulled out my linen shorts for spring weekend days. Both these outfits feature the Kmart linen blend shorts I was lucky enough to stumble across in the opshop in two different colours, as well as different shades of blue and pink.


What I wore:






JacketThe Kindness Collective 'Kaleidoscope Dreams' printed kimono
NecklaceRoie Designs coral beaded tassel necklace
TeeAtmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Shorts: thrifted Kmart fuchsia linen blend shorts
Shoesslim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote in plum


Why I wore it:

Blue, pink and purple is a trio I love to wear and I liked the different shades of it in this outfit, with the fuchsia shorts, navy tee and the navy and purple printed cover up with the plum purple mini MAB tote bag.

I picked this to wear for a warm yet windy day at the beachfront with my friend. We hadn't caught up in a while so it was good to take advantage of the weather and let the kids play in the water. The wading pool is nice shallow water and the boys spent most of their time there so I wore the shorts as I could stand in the pool with them if needed. And I like this navy tee with pink. The purple printed cover up was a must have for some extra sun protection, and then I added more purple with the plum mini MAB tote bag. While I had the big beach bag with towels, water bottles and beach toys, the mini MAB let me keep my phone and essentials close by as I wasn't swimming.


Last worn: purple printed cover up, beaded necklace, navy tee, fuchsia linen shorts, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff plum purple MAB.

Tee: Jeanswest Sophie navy v-neck tee
Shorts: thrifted Kmart turquoise linen shorts
Shoes: thrifted Seed Heritage tan braided sandals
Bracelets: the usual
BagMIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold


Why I wore it:

Another navy tee and linen shorts outfit, with this turquoise pair. I still added some pink to this outfit with the fun tropical palm print cover up. Once again I wore it for a little extra sun protection, as we had a picnic down the coast with family. It was another really nice warm day so the kids had a blast playing in the water as I sat around enjoying the good food and conversation while keeping an eye on them.

As I didn't need to carry much and I had all the bright colours in my outfit with the pink and turquoise already, I kept the bag simple and wore my little black Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.


Last worn: palm print cover up, beaded necklace, navy tee, turquoise shorts, braided sandals, Mimco crossbody bag.

30 Ways to Wear: Atmos&Here Navy Marle Scoop Neck Tee | Magnificent 8 Restyled

This quarter's magnificent 8 post theme is "restyled" where we will each be rewearing a piece we've worn for previous Magnificent 8 collaborative posts. As I was due to share another 30 wears post, I was pleased to see that this Atmos&Here navy marl scoop neck tee is something I've exceeded 30 wears with, and wore in a previous Magnificent 8 post as well.


30 Ways to Wear: Atmos&Here Navy Marle Scoop Neck Tee


30 ways to wear atmos and here navy marle scoop neck tee awayfromblue



Cost Per Wear

As I've worn this tee 33 times, I was expecting a good cost per wear for it. I actually got it on sale, with an extra coupon code discount, back in June 2016. It was just $8.74, so for 33 wears, that works out at 29 cents a wear, great value indeed. I've also exceeded 30 wears on the chambray maxi skirt I bought in the same sale order, so I've gotten a lot of value from that sale order.

This navy tee has been in my wardrobe for 8 years, so I'm surprised it's not hit 30 wears sooner! It's a great basic tee, and as it's got a slightly curved cropped hem (although it's just normal length on my petite self) it looks great worn over dresses, as well as with the navy tee staples of denim, shorts and skirts. It still looks new, so I've got a lot more wear to get from it! Here are 30 of my favourite ways I've worn it so far. 



Navy Tee and Pink Outfits

5 ways to wear pink and navy tee awayfromblue

Blue and pink is one of those combinations I'll always wear! And as you can see in these 5 outfits, with the neutral navy marle tee, all different shades of pink work well with it. From the neon pink bag, to leopard print jeans, pastel pink jeans or even the magenta jeans on the top right.



Orange and Navy Tee Outfits

3 ways to wear orange and navy scoop neck tee outfits awayfromblue

Surprisingly I haven't worn as much orange with this tee as I thought I would have - I feel orange really pops when you wear it with navy! I like it with the orange shorts and skirt, but a smaller piece of orange like that little peach bag in the first outfit is a great accessory with navy too.



Navy Tee and Green

navy tee with green pieces in 4 different outfits  awayfromtheblue

"Blue and green should never be seen" is one of those silly rules I used to follow, but since I've been wearing green more often I've realised how nicely green and blue compliment each other. All different shades of green, like the olive shorts, emerald green duster, or moss coloured jeans, look great next to the navy tee. 



Shorts Outfits With A Navy Tee


Shorts and a tee is a summer staple! I might throw a cover up on top for a little extra print and colour, or even just some sun coverage. But as you can see in the majority of these shorts outfits, a simple pair of shorts and a navy tee is a nice easy outfit on its own.



Navy Tee and Black


I tend to wear this navy tee a lot with black in the cooler weather - something about winter has me reaching for all the neutrals, and black jeans, or black blazers or knits, are a nice addition to a neutral navy tee. Sometimes as you can see in the first 3 outfits, I add a bit of colour with an accessory, but as in that last outfit, it's nice to just have a neutral filled outfit with the navy tee sometimes too.



Navy Tee and Purple


Blue and purple is another colour duo I frequently wear! Just as with the other colour combinations I've shared in this post, I think different shades of purple are great with this navy tee. The little plum purple Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB bag in the first and last outfits there is a favourite accessory with this navy tee, but the deeper purple bag and jeans in the middle there look good too!



Skirts and Dress Outfits With Navy Tee


As you read above, this tee is such a good layering piece. In that outfit photo in the middle there I've layered it over a maxi dress. The other outfits in this set of 5 are simple skirt outfits, but in the outfit photos earlier in the post I've shared the tee over a dress again as well. I love the look of the tee over a maxi skirt or a maxi dress, and being navy, as you've seen from all the photos in this post, it works with so many different prints and colours.

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
JeansNobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
Shoes: thrifted Seed Heritage tan braided sandals
Bracelets: the usual
BagMarc 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.

Jeans: thrifted Cotton On The High Rise Skinny Jean black coated denim
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagMarc 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!

Maxi Skirts, Navy Tees, Denim Jackets and Chloe Paraty Bag

Some spring maxi skirt outfits I wore recently, both with navy tees, denim jackets and blue bags. Both of these skirts were opshop finds.


What I wore:






Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace: thrifted neutral silicone and wood bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Skirt: thrifted NWT Beginning Boutique Sahara red-orange maxi skirt
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe periwinkle small Paraty


Why I wore it:

This cotton maxi skirt was awesome on this hot day! It has pockets too which is always a winner. I wore it with another thrifted piece, this foil tee. I needed the denim jacket in the cooler morning, although when I was running errands later I'd taken it off, as the day warmed up so much!

The boys had a kid's birthday party and I also had a lot of errands to run. I wore the Chloe Paraty bag as I like the light periwinkle blue with both red and navy, and because it has room for all the essentials plus my latest library book for when I was waiting for an appointment between errands.





What I wore:






Jacket: Jeanswest Kitty denim biker jacket
Necklace: thrifted bronze foil statement necklace
TeeAtmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Skirtthrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
BagRebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue


Why I wore it:

This orange maxi skirt is on that is frequently worn with blue. I like the navy tee with it, it's the first time I've worn the two together surprisingly. The denim moto jacket is a frequently worn piece with this skirt though, they look so good together.

Just like the day above I didn't need the denim jacket all day though, with the weather warming up nicely as the kids had a sports session.

The Rebecca Minkoff Luna blue Edie bag added another shade of blue to this outfit and also has space for all my essentials plus my latest library book so it was an obvious choice to carry.
