Graphic Tees, Jeans and Waterfall Cardigans

More easy mum life outfits, with graphic tees and jeans worn together with colourful waterfall cardigans and Converse.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Dana drape knit cardi in boysenberry
Earrings: Kmart lilac statement ball drop earrings
Tee: Monsterthreads star print graphic tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
Bag: Polene numero neuf mini in textured mauve 

Why I wore it:

I liked all the matchy-matchy purple in this outfit! With the purple graphic print, I pulled out some lilac accessories. These beaded earrings are such a good match for the lilac of my Polene Numero Neuf mini bag, and I added another shade of purple with this berry waterfall cardigan. The kids had a sports event on and I took a little time to myself in the morning to have an enjoyable opshop browse after running a few errands.

The day heated up nicely, so much so that I left the cardigan in the car when I went to pickup the kids. Unfortunately it left me with no layers to remove when a bird pooped on me, but my friend told me it was good luck as she helpfully cleaned it up with some tissues. The Polene Numero Neuf bag is a cute mini size for just the essentials, but it meant I had no tissues on me! Thankfully I could go home and jump in the shower, and it all washed off the tee.


Last worn: lilac statement earrings, graphic planet tee, magenta waterfall cardigan, grey skinny jeans, pink Converse, Polene Numero Neuf mini bag.

Other ways to wear: graphic planet tee and skirt, magenta waterfall cardigan worn 30 ways,  grey skinny jeans worn 30 ways, pink Converse and dress, Polene Numero Neuf mini bag and skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: waterfall cardigan in first trimester.

Jeans: thrifted Cotton On The High Rise Skinny Jean black coated denim
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea

Why I wore it:

Another graphic tee and jeans outfit, this time with my coated denim skinny jeans. I wore Converse with this outfit too, as there was a lot of walking to do, taking advantage of a public holiday day off to take the kids to MovieWorld theme park.

Again I went a little matchy-matchy, with the red waterfall cardigan matching the red in the Mickey mouse tee, although the shades are slightly different. The black Mimco Mim-mazing crossbody bag is a classic and it matched the coated denim skinny jeans well, although I did also carry a big reusable tote for everyone's water bottles.

This was a nice comfortable outfit for a day with a lot of walking and rides, we had such a fun time.

Striped Tees, Maxi Skirts and Leather Jacket With Chloe Bags

Two maxi skirts and stripe tee outfits, layered up for Brisbane's winter with my Jeanswest black leather jacket. Nice and cosy for some working from home days.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest black leather moto jacket
Earrings: Colette white pearl beaded gum leaf tassel earrings
Necklace: handmade yellow and white polymer clay beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Mossimo black and white striped v-neck tee 
Skirt: thrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: Chloe small Ethel bag in light khaki

Why I wore it:

I really like the yellow beaded necklace worn with this ochre maxi skirt! I like the colour it added to this darker outfit, with the black leather jacket and the black and white striped tee. I added a little more lightness with the Chloe Ethel bag too, I needed a big bag despite working from home, as I carried a book for an appointment in the morning, after the school run.

It's not the first time I've worn this orange maxi skirt with a striped tee, I like the combination. So much so that I repeated it again a week or so later.


Last worn: Jeanswest leather jacket, gum leaf earrings, black striped tee, orange maxi skirt, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Chloe Ethel bag. First time I've worn the necklace as I recently made it.

Other ways to wear: Jeanswest leather jacket and dress, black striped tee and jeans, orange maxi skirt and jumper, Adidas Superstar sneakers and jeans, Chloe Ethel bag and pencil skirt.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest black leather moto jacket

Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in eddy stripe white / red terracotta
Skirt: thrifted Crossroads black ruffle hem maxi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
Bag: Chloe small Paraty bag in wine purple

Why I wore it:

Another working from home day, in another stripe tee and maxi skirt outfit. With the black Jeanswest leather jacket again, this time matching with the black maxi skirt. Like the maxi skirt above, this one was an opshop find and I really enjoy wearing it! I wore the comfortable Converse as I had a bit of running around to do with the school run in the morning and afternoon. I thought that this rust striped tee was due another wear, and I like the little touch of colour with all the black.

The wine purple Chloe Paraty bag isn't a match with the rust stripes on the tee, but I thought the colours looked nice together, especially with all the black in-between.


Last worn: Jeanswest leather jacket (above), blue beaded necklace, rust stripe tee, black maxi skirt, brown Converse, Chloe wine purple Paraty bag.

Other ways to wear: Jeanswest leather jacket and dress, rust stripe tee and blazer, black maxi skirt and denim jacket, brown Converse and jeans, Chloe wine purple Paraty bag and dress.

Leopard Print Cardigans, Pink Tees and Jeans

Two similar outfits, with thrifted leopard print cardigans, pink tees, black skinny jeans and Converse for some recent working from home days.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Dotti leopard print long cardigan (new purchase)
Earrings: gold heart and pearl earrings
Necklace: handmade purple polymer clay beaded necklace
Tee: Cle The Label Charlotte tee in ombre rose
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

First time I've worn this cardigan on the blog. it was a very lucky opshop find! I'm always on the hunt for cute cardigans and I've been really lucky recently with finding them! This one is a nice addition to my wardrobe, and I like pink and leopard print together so this ombre pink tee seemed like an obvious choice. I went matchy-matchy with the pink Converse, although it's a different shade of pink from the tee I liked the two pinks together, and I added the purple necklace for a little more colour.

Nice casual outfit for a vet appointment, the school run, and working from home.


Last worn: pearl earrings, ombre pink tee, black skinny jeans, pink Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag. First time I've worn the cardigan as it's a recent opshop purchase, and first time I've worn the necklace as I recently made it.

Other ways to wear: ombre pink tee and shorts, black skinny jeans and graphic tee, pink Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and skirt.

Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
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:

Since I liked the outfit above so much, I repeated the formula again with different pieces. I wore black Converse this time, matching the black skinny jeans and the black background on this black and white leopard print cardigan. like the cardigan in the first outfit, this was also an opshop find! It's nice to have some printed cardigans to add a little extra interest to block colour tees like this pink one in winter. Again I went with a darker bag, this Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag. I was working from home, did the school run, and also had a physio appointment, so this Cupid bag was perfect for fitting all my essentials plus my latest library read.

Last worn: leopard print cocoon cardigan, neutral beaded necklace, pink tee, black skinny jeans, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag.

Red Maxi Skirt and Tee Outfits With Chloe Ethel Bag

Two colourful maxi skirt and tee outfits with leather jackets for some working from home days with appointments to attend. I like wearing maxi skirts in warmer weather, but also enjoy layering them up for winter.

What I wore:

Jacket: Witchery black belted moto leather jacket
Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings
Necklace: handmade tan and orange polymer clay beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Target cotton and modal relaxed red tee
Skirt: no label cream and brown floral print midi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
Bag: Chloe small Ethel bag in light khaki

Why I wore it:

I've been wearing a lot of jeans lately so I decided to pull out some of my maxi skirts! This one is so good to wear with plain tees like this recently thrifted red one. I really like the print with block colour tees, although this is the first time I've worn it with red.

Added the brown and khaki Chloe Ethel bag as I felt it complimented the colours in the print of the skirt well, and because it fit all my essentials plus my latest library book read for waiting for a dentist appointment after work and school pickup. As it was a cold winter day, I layered up with the Witchery leather jacket to keep warm.


Last worn: stud earrings, Witchery leather jacket, printed maxi skirt, brown Converse, Chloe Ethel bag. First time I've worn the necklace as I recently made it, and first time I've worn the tee as it was a recent opshop buy.

Other ways to wear: Witchery leather jacket and dress, printed maxi skirt and cami, brown Converse and dress, Chloe Ethel bag and jeans.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest black leather moto jacket
Necklace: adjustable coral flat bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Country Road grey crew neck tee
Skirt: thrifted NWT Beginning Boutique Sahara red-orange maxi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe small Ethel bag in light khaki

Why I wore it:

Another appointment during the day while working from home - physio this time - meant I wore my Chloe Ethel bag again to fit in another book. This outfit is similar to the one above as it's the same bag, a maxi skirt and tee, with a lot of red, but it's got a grey tee instead and an unprinted red maxi skirt. Both the maxi skirt and the grey tee are opshop finds, and I liked wearing them together. As in the outfit above, I needed a little extra warmth so I wore this black Jeanswest leather jacket.

While the coral necklace is a more orange shade than the bright coral red of the maxi skirt, I liked the two paired together, especially against the neutral grey tee.


Last worn: black leather jacket, grey tee, coral necklace, red tiered maxi skirt, white Converse, Chloe Ethel bag (above).

Other ways to wear: black leather jacket and jeans, grey tee with blue skirt, red tiered maxi skirt at Christmas, white Converse and dress, Chloe Ethel bag and shorts.

Kisschasy Band Tees, Skinny Jeans, Converse and Grey Cardigan

Two very similar outfits, with the same cardigan, jeans, shoes and bag and Kisschasy band tees for a staycation at Sea World resort recently on the Gold Coast over the winter school holidays.

What I wore:

Jacket: Paper Scissors grey wrap cardigan
Tee: Kisschasy Hymns for the Nonbeliever 2025 tour band tee
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff 2012 sky grey mini MAC bag

Why I wore it:

Wore this for our trip down the coast and to spend the day enjoying the theme park. I knew that it would warm up during the day so I thought this light grey cardigan was all I would need. And although I didn't warm up enough to take it off it was a good layer to have. Had so much fun with the kids going on all the rides, making the most of them being a little taller than out last visit and being able to go on all the rides they wanted.

The little Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC was all I needed to keep the essentials handy. I had a big reusable tote for everyone's water bottles and some snacks for through the day.


Last worn: grey belted cardigan, Kisschasy band tee, zip detail jeans, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff sky grey mini MAC bag.

Other ways to wear: grey belted cardigan and dress, Kisschasy band tee and maxi skirt, zip detail jeans and pink, blue Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff sky grey mini MAC bag and skirt.

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Paper Scissors grey wrap cardigan
Tee: Kisschasy blue tape band tee
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff 2012 sky grey mini MAC bag

Why I wore it:

Early morning view from our balcony before day two of theme parking - kicking off with a buffet breakfast that honestly isn't the best way to start a day of multiple rollercoaster rides, ha! Although it did mean we were still so full at lunchtime we could just treat ourselves to ice cream for lunch.

Again I wore the same grey cardigan as I had the day before, along with the zip detail skinny jeans, and blue Converse and same blue Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag. I really simplified packing by bringing as few things as possible. Although I expected this day to be cooler it really warmed up so much, I did have to take the cardigan off a couple times during the day.

Since I'd worn a Kisschasy band tee in the outfit above, and I wanted to simplify packing, I decided to make it a band tee weekend, and I wore this other older Kisschasy band tee I have. I liked it with the blue converse and mini MAC bag.


Last worn: grey belted cardigan (above), blue Kisschasy band tee, zip detail skinny jeans (above), blue Converse (above), Rebecca Minkoff sky grey mini MAC (above).

Other ways to wear: grey belted cardigan and pink jeans, blue Kisschasy band tee and skirt, zip detail skinny jeans and trench, blue Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff sky grey mini MAC and shorts.

Rust Tees, Black Knits, Skinny Jeans and Converse

Layering up some rust toned tees for Brisbane's winter with black jeans, Converse and cosy black knits recently.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Dotti black cocoon cape cardigan
Scarf: Alexander McQueen modal and cashmere skull scarf
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed red clay
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: Chloe Marcie medium shoulder bag in nut

Why I wore it:

I love the subtle different these coated denim jeans make to an outfit, I'm glad I thrifted them a while back to give the look a try. With a nice cosy cardigan is my favourite way to wear them, and this black cardigan is also an opshop find. With the black jeans, black Converse and black cardigan, I wanted to add a little more colour to this outfit. This washed clay tee is a lovely rust tone that had me pulling out my taupe Alexander McQueen skull scarf and nut brown Chloe Marcie bag to complement the colour.

This was a nice comfortable jeans and tee outfit for working from home, I wasn't planning on having too busy of a day, until I got the message from school in the morning reminding us it was a themed day. I ended up scrabbling to get to the shops and buy the kids something appropriate before drop off! Thankfully they made it to school just before the bell rung. Definitely an eventful morning! Luckily the rest of the day, working from home, didn't have any big surprises!


Last worn: black cocoon cardigan, Alexander McQueen skull scarf, rust tee, coated skinny jeans, Converse, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wear: black cocoon cardigan and printed jeans, skull scarf and dress, rust tee and shorts, coated skinny jeans and jumper, Converse and skirt, Chloe Marcie shoulder bag and dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Necklace: Roie Designs coral beaded tassel necklace
Tee: Anko Kmart short sleeve slub v-neck tee in copper 
Jeans: Nobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

This tee is a similar rust colour to the one above, although a different saturation so this one is a lot more vibrant. I liked the peachy necklace with this, but I kept everything else black so the tee was the only colour in my outfit. It was a quiet weekend day and I didn't have much on other than a couple of errands, after dropping my son off at a playdate and then picking him up later in the afternoon.

I only needed the essentials so this Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag fit everything I needed for the day.


Last worn: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana, rust tee, beaded necklace, Nobody Denim jeans, brown Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana and white jeans, rust tee and skirt, Nobody Denim jeans and duster, brown Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and skirt.

Kisschasy Band Tees, Maxi Skirts, Denim Jackets and Converse

Wore two of my Kisschasy band tees recently with maxi skirts, denim jackets and Converse.

What I wore:

Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Earrings: Colette white pearl beaded gum leaf tassel earrings
Tee: Kisschasy Hymns for the Nonbeliever 2025 tour band tee (new purchase)
Skirt: thrifted NWT Beginning Boutique Sahara red-orange maxi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue

Why I wore it:

This was a bit of a warmer winter day so I wore this denim jacket with the sleeves rolled up. It was the perfect layer over this Kisschasy band tee and red tiered maxi skirt. I wore the Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag as I needed a large bag for all the essentials and a water bottle as well as my camera, as the kids were competing in sports and I went along to support them. I had a couple of errands to run as well, including taking the dogs for a bath and clip. This was a really comfortable outfit for that.

I liked how the coral red of the tiered maxi skirt tied in with the red text and graphic on the band tee. It was a nice matchy-matchy outfit for the first wearing of this tee.


Last worn: denim jacket, gold earrings, tiered maxi skirt, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid. First time I've worn the tee as it's a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: denim jacket worn 30 ways, tiered maxi skirt and leather jacket, Converse and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: denim jacket in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Anko Kmart mid wash denim jacket
Earrings: thrifted red dinosaur skeleton earrings
Tee: Kisschasy United Paper People 2023 tour band tee
Skirt: thrifted pinstripe maxi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Another little more subtle matchy-matchy, with the red dinosaur skeleton earrings to match the red in the graphic print on this Kisschasy band tee. I wasn't too sure about wearing this bold graphic print tee with the pinstripe maxi skirt, but I'm glad I gave it a go as I ended up really liking this pattern mix.

I think the pinstripe is delicate and fine enough it doesn't give too much of a pattern clash, and the denim jacket was a good topper too. This was a bit of a cooler day, but I didn't have to be outside long as I had school drop off and then working from home for the rest of the day, and then school pickup. As I only needed the essentials I just wore this little Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.


Last worn: dinosaur earrings, denim jacket, Kisschasy band tee, pinstripe maxi skirt, black Converse, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: denim jacket and dress, Kisschasy band tee and jeans, pinstripe maxi skirt and leather jacket, black Converse and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

Pink and Black Jeans and Tee Outfits With Love Too Bag

Two very different black and pink jeans and tee outfits, with patterned cover ups and my Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag.

What I wore:

Jacket: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Necklace: Roie Designs coral beaded tassel necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One Deep V tee in marle nep white body black
Jeans: thrifted Zara pink frayed hem skinny 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:

It was good to get this cosy knit out again! The perfect topper to keep me warm for a day with the school run, working from home and a quick errand in the afternoon. I always enjoy getting this knitted poncho out each winter, it's like wearing a giant blanket really! The black and white pattern adds a nice bit of an interest to any outfit I wear it with, and it is warm enough so I just needed a plain tee underneath.  Added a little colour with the pink frayed hem Zara jeans, an opshop find.

The necklace doesn't have any pink in it but I liked the simplicity of it against the textures white tee and the pastel orange was a nice colour worn with the pastel pink jeans.


Last worn: Rebecca Minkoff ruana, beaded necklace, textured white tee, pink frayed hem jeans, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag. 

Other ways to wear: Rebecca Minkoff ruana worn 2 ways, textured white tee and shorts, pink frayed hem jeans and jumper, black Converse and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag and dress.

What I wore:

Jacket: Cotton On Leah kimono in Juddy floral cerise
Necklace: thrifted Eb&Ive turquoise wooden bead multi strand statement necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton on grey tunic tee
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather

Why I wore it:

Wore this for a busy day, with the school run, working from home, and packing up for and driving the boys to camp in the evening.

Of course by the time we left for camp I'd swapped the light floral waterfall jacket for a cosier hoodie, but during the day this light jacket was all I needed. I liked the bright burst of colour it added to the monochromatic grey tee and black skinny jeans outfit. The turquoise wooden necklace and deep teal Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag were nice accessories to add a little more colour too.


Last worn: magenta floral waterfall jacket, turquoise beaded necklace, grey tunic tee, Jeanswest black skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag (above).

Other ways to wear: magenta floral waterfall jacket and shorts, grey tunic tee and skirt, Jeanswest black skinny jeans and blazer,  Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag and skirt.

Maxi Skirts and Denim Jackets

Blue tees, denim jackets and maxi skirts for Brisbane winter days.

What I wore:

Jacket: Anko Kmart mid wash denim jacket
Earrings: Colette silver light twist hoop earrings
Necklace: mixed metal hammered pendant necklace
Tee: Anko Kmart short sleeve slub v-neck tee in blu marine
Skirt: thrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather

Why I wore it:

Nice and colourful with this blue tee, ochre orange maxi skirt, and more blue with the denim jacket and deep teal Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag. I really liked the accessories with this outfit, the twist hoop earrings go so nicely with the mixed metal pendant necklace.

It was a little chilly for the school run so this denim jacket was a great layer over this maxi skirt and tee outfit. I wear blue with this maxi skirt often, I really like the colour combination! And it was nice and comfortable for working from home, and doing the school run. I picked up some of my sons friends from school the afternoon for a playdate too.


Last worn: denim jacket, silver earrings, blue tee, mixed metal necklace, ochre maxi skirt, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag.

Other ways to wear: denim jacket and grey tee, blue tee with red, ochre maxi skirt and knit, Adidas Superstar sneakers and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag and pencil skirt.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Kitty denim biker jacket
Earrings: Colette white pearl beaded gum leaf tassel earrings
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Skirt: no label cream and brown floral print midi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bag: Chloe small Paraty bag in wine purple

Why I wore it:

Another maxi skirt, blue tee and denim jacket outfit for another day of working from home. As well as also doing the school run, I took the kids to sports in the evening. I did kind of wish I'd worn a scarf with this as well in the evening! The denim jacket is great and usually keeps me warm, but it was quite a chilly night.

This was perfect for during the day though, my oldest had a special excursion so I had to drop him off for that in the morning. He had such a good day and did really well in the presentation in the afternoon - I'm proud of him! I needed a bag for all my essentials plus my camera for taking photos at his presentation, so I went with this purple Chloe Paraty. Like the orange maxi skirt, I like purple and blue together so I often wear this with blue. It's the first time I've worn it with this brown floral print maxi skirt and I really liked the deep purple with the brown and cream. I'm definitely going to have to wear them together again.

I skipped a necklace and just wore a statement pair of earrings with this outfit as I felt the subtle sparkle on the tee was enough interest that I didn't need to add a necklace. It never shows up too well in photos though!


Last worn: gold leaf earrings, moto denim jacket, navy sparkle tee, brown floral print maxi skirt, white Converse, Chloe purple Paraty bag.

Other ways to wear: moto denim jacket and dress, navy sparkle tee and jeans, brown floral print maxi skirt and grey tee, white Converse and shorts, Chloe purple Paraty bag and dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.
