Peach Floral Dresses, Anko Denim Trench, Converse and Chloe Ethel Bag

Wearing my Kmart denim trench coat yet again, with two very similar peachy-pastel print floral dresses, Converse and my Chloe Ethel bag. I do love repeating a good outfit formula!


What I wore:




Jacket: Kmart Anko full length oversized denim trench coat
EarringsColette white pearl beaded gum leaf tassel earrings
DressJaase Semika mini smock dress in amor print mandarin dollar dress
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

This was a bit of a busy day! Cooper had the vets in the morning, then I had a fun art class with friends, and used my mother's day gift to treat myself to a pamper session in the evening. So busy, but fun! It was a rainy start to the day so I did wonder if I should have worn boots instead of Converse, but thankfully the rain dried up quickly and it was really warm when the sun came out. I didn't even need my trench coat by lunch time. the long sleeves on this dress helped.

This was a great first wearing of this beautiful Jasse dress I picked up in the latest Salty Crush sale - it got a lot of compliments in art class and I thankfully avoided getting it dirty with the materials! It was such a delight to wear, and I'm so pleased I bought this dress, even if it does look a little similar to the dress I'm wearing below.


Last worn: denim trench coat, brown Converse, Chloe Ethel bag. It's the first time I've shared the earrings on the blog and Jaase dress on the blog as they are recent purchases.

What I wore:






Jacket: Kmart Anko full length oversized denim trench coat
Earrings: Colette blue mixed shape faux crustal drop earrings
Dress: thrifted no label pastel floral print babydoll dress
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
BagChloe small Ethel bag in light khaki


Why I wore it:

Unlike the dress above that was an online sale purchase, this peachy pastel print floral dress is an opshop find! it's a lot cheaper, at just $1, and a slightly different set of colours and a babydoll waist style with much fewer buttons. I still think that when posted side by side like this in almost identical layers with this denim trench, the two dresses look every similar. I think there is certainly room for both in my wardrobe though!

This was a busy but less fun day, with another vet visit for Cooper, the school run, a couple of errands, and working from home. I knotted the tassel on this dress at the neckline as with the blue statement earrings I couldn't decide on a necklace. I like the way this dress looks tied up too, I'll need to try that with the tassels on the dress above also one day.


Last worn: crystal earrings, denim trench coat (above), floral babydoll dress, blue Converse, Chloe Ethel bag (above).

Kmart Floral Midi Dresses, Denim Trench Coat and Chloe Paddington Bag

This Anko full length denim trench coat is becoming an autumn staple for me! The nice relaxed fit means it easily fits both of these long sleeved floral dresses underneath, also both Kmart sale buys! It's a nice layer for autumn commutes to the office too.


What I wore:






Jacket: Kmart Anko full length oversized denim trench coat
EarringsColette Tropadelic purple beaded tassel statement earrings
Dress: Kmart long sleeve black tie neck dress in floral wisteria print
Belt: came with dress
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
BagChloe Paddington in 2007 Brun


Why I wore it:

This was a whirlwind of a day! It started off as normal with a morning in the office. I was glad of this jacket keeping me warm for the commute as although this black floral midi dress has long sleeves it's a light fabric and it would have been too chilly on its own. I ended up having to come home from the city early to collect my unwell son from school, and then we got the news Cooper needed surgery from the vet that afternoon. It was a lot for one day! Thankfully as I'm typing this my son has recovered, Coops has had the surgery and is recovering well.

I'd planned this pretty black floral midi dress for a day full of meetings. I like the statement purple beaded earrings with it, even though there isn't any purple in the print of this dress, I like wearing purple with it as it compliments pink and blue so nicely. And again I wore my brun Chloe Paddington bag that's been getting a lot of wear recently.


Last worn: denim trench coat, black floral midi dress, blue Converse, Chloe Paddington bag. First time I've worn the earrings as they are a recent purchase.

Other ways to weardenim trench coat and jeans, black floral midi dress and leather jacket, blue Converse and shorts, Chloe Paddington bag and pencil skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: Chloe Paddington bag in second trimester.





What I wore:





 
Jacket: Kmart Anko full length oversized denim trench coat
EarringsColette silver light twist hoop earrings
Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Dress: Kmart teal floral print midi dress
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe Paddington in 2007 Brun


Why I wore it:

Another office day, and again the same easy outfit formula! I find printed midi dresses are great for office days, and I've barely switched up my bag since getting this Chloe Paddington back out again. The denim trench again was an awesome outfit topper, and I wore the brown Converse to compliment the brown Paddington bag. Even though they are different shades of brown I like wearing these accessories together.

Thankfully, it was a much calmer day than the one above! So while I was wearing almost the same thing the day went a lot smoother. As well as a meeting filled day can go, with no unwell children or pets thankfully.


Last worn: denim trench coat (above), Tiffany necklace, teal floral midi dress, brown Converse, Chloe Paddington bag (above). First time I've worn the earrings as they are a recent purchase.

Striped Tees, Jeans, Long Coats And Purple Chloe Paraty Bag

More autumn jeans outfits - I really do reach for my denim a lot in the cooler weather! This time around I'm wearing jeans and striped tees with my purple small Chloe Paraty bag, for some working from home days.


What I wore:






Jacket: Ripe longline grey cardigan
Teethrifted navy stripe Coca-Cola logo tee
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesAdidas Superstar sneakers
BagChloe small Paraty bag in wine purple


Why I wore it:

This was another busy day! With the school run, working from home, a vet visit for the dogs, and then sports in the evening. While it was warmer during the day when I was out with the dogs, this warm grey cocoon cardigan was much needed for the cooler morning and the very cold evening outdoors with the kids.

I felt like this Coca-Cola logo stripe tee was overdue another wear, and it's a nice simple outfit paired with the plain grey cardigan and black skinny jeans. I added the Adidas Superstar for more black and white, and then an extra bit of colour with the purple Chloe Paraty bag. The deep wine coloured purple shade is particularly suited for autumn, I've been reaching for it a lot lately.


Last worn: grey cocoon cardigan, Coca-Cola logo tee, black skinny jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Chloe Paraty bag.

Other ways to weargrey cocoon cardigan and skirt, Coca-Cola logo tee and shorts, black skinny jeans and blazer, Adidas Superstar sneakers and dress, Chloe Paraty bag and skirt.






What I wore:






Jacket: Kmart Anko full length oversized denim trench coat
EarringsColette purple acrylic flower statement earrings
Necklace: Uniquely Made with Love Sea Change necklace
TeeCotton On "The One" fitted v tee in Cole stripe white moonlight
JeansNobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
BagChloe small Paraty bag in wine purple


Why I wore it:

Another striped tee and jeans outfit for working from home, again with the school run and a vet trip for Cooper. I like a casual jeans and tee outfit for working from home, as it's so comfortable. I did try to dress this up a little with these pretty purple acrylic slower earrings I picked up on a day out with my mum and sister lately. The store had a 3 for $10 sale and I couldn't resist! I felt these helped add a little interest and dressed up the tee enough for video calls.

I then went with the blue beaded necklace to match the earrings, and this denim trench coat that I absolutely adore. Despite it being quite popular when it was released last year, it went on sale in my local Kmart store for just $10 when spring arrived, and I had to snap it up. It's quite a soft denim and I like the relaxed oversized fit, will be perfect for layering with chunky knits when winter arrives. It was a nice way to do double denim with the grey jeans, and again I wore the purple Chloe Paraty bag for a touch of autumn colour.


Last worn: navy stripe tee, blue beaded necklace, Nobody Denim jeans, white leather Converse, purple Chloe Paraty bag (above). First time I've worn the trench as I bought it on sale last year in warmer weather, and first time I've worn the earrings as they are a recent purchase.

Yellow, Black And Leopard Print Outfits With Magenta Bag

Another two winter office outfits I wore recently, both with animal print, black and colourful yellow scarves. I added a little more colour to both outfits with my magenta Marc by Marc Jacobs bag.


What I wore:






JacketJeanswest Monica Mac coat in Indigo
ScarfJeanswest Lucille golden yellow scarf
Earrings: neutral clay disc earrings
CamiKmart Anko leopard print cami
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
ShoesAdidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: thrifted Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr Q Convertible clutch in electric violet


Why I wore it:

Was feeling the cold on this winter morning but also really wanted to give this cheetah print cami another wear for something different from a plain tee. Just like leopard print, I find it works well with yellow and I really like this mustard scarf with it.

Also had my grey belted cardigan on underneath the navy trench for a little extra warmth on the commute to work and also because I wanted to keep the spaghetti straps of the cami covered up in the office. Even though you can't really see it in the photos, just that longer hemline at the side peeking out. I was trying to pick a bag to wear and I saw this one I thrifted a while back and decided to give it a go. I liked the fun combination of it with the mustard scarf, I haven't tried yellow with this bag before.


Last worn: navy Macintosh, clay earrings, mustard scarfcheetah print cami, zip detail jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Marc by Marc Jacobs bag.

Other ways to wearnavy Macintosh and skirt, mustard scarf and dresscheetah print cami and shorts, zip detail jeans and graphic tee, Adidas Superstar sneakers and maxi skirt, Marc by Marc Jacobs bag and printed jeans.





What I wore:






JacketWitchery black belted moto leather jacket
Scarf: Love Quotes knotted tassel linen scarf in sunshine yellow
Earrings: thrifted Colette gold metal flower stud statement earrings (new purchase)
Skirt: thrifted ruffle hem leopard print midi skirt
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bag: thrifted Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr Q Convertible clutch in electric violet


Why I wore it:

Since I liked the yellow and magenta combination above, I tried it again, with this brighter yellow scarf. This scarf is such a cheerful addition to a winter outfit, although it is sadly so big and cosy that it has completely hidden my top in the photos! I will need to try wearing this outfit again on a warmer day minus the scarf or jacket.

The leather jacket was much needed on a cold and wet day though - I even had leggings on under this leopard print maxi skirt to keep me cosy. Much needed with the side slits on the skirt for a cold day! I added some recently thrifted statement earrings too, even though the yellow scarf is enough of a statement on its own, as I didn't wear the scarf sitting at my desk in the office all day.


Last worn: black leather jacket, yellow scarf, leopard print maxi skirt, white Converse, Marc By Marc Jacobs bag (above). First time I've worn the earrings as they are a recent opshop find.

Other ways to wearblack leather jacket and denim dress, yellow scarf and floral dress, leopard print maxi skirt and blazer, white Converse and jeans, Marc By Marc Jacobs bag and sequins.

Perfect for Pregnancy: scarf in second trimester.

Floral Dresses, Trench Coats And Purple Small Paraty Bag

Felt like I'd been wearing a lot of jeans this winter, so changed it up a little and layered these Kmart floral midi dresses with trench coats and tall boots for days in the office recently. Despite the different colours in the dresses, I wore my wine purple Chloe Paraty bag with both.


What I wore:




JacketJeanswest Monica Mac coat in Indigo
NecklaceTiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Dress: Kmart teal floral print midi dress
ShoesAsos Cleo leather boots in tan
BagChloe small Paraty bag in wine purple


Why I wore it:

Surprisingly the first time I've worn this teal dress with the purple Chloe Paraty bag before! I was sure this wasn't a new combination and one that I'd worn before, but a quick search through the blog proved otherwise.

I really liked the teal floral print with the purple bag, especially with the tall tan boots and the navy trench coat adding some neutrals.

Had a busy day with some time in the office then an appointment for my son after school pick up.


Last worn: navy trench, Tiffany necklace, teal floral midi dress, tan boots, Chloe purple Paraty bag.

Other ways to wearnavy trench and jeans, teal floral midi dress and leather jacket, tan boots worn 30 ways, Chloe purple Paraty bag and skirt.





What I wore:






Jacket: Barkins beige trench coat
Earrings: Piper gold and turquoise disc dangle earring
Dress: Kmart long sleeve black tie neck dress in floral wisteria print
ShoesAsos Cleo leather boots in tan
BagChloe small Paraty bag in wine purple


Why I wore it:


Decided to tie the neckline on this pretty floral midi dress up, which meant I accessorised with some statement earrings as the bow at the neck didn't really need a necklace. I liked how the turquoise in the earrings is a close match to the blue in the print of the dress. 

The tan trench coat and again the tall boots were definitely needed on this colder morning. It was an early start for a big day in the office, so a lack of sunlight for the photos sadly, hard to see how cute this dress looks belted!


Last worn: camel trench, statement earrings, black floral midi dress, tan boots (above), Chloe purple Paraty bag (above).

Jewel Tone Blouses, Trench Coats, Skinny Jeans and Floral Bag

More winter office outfits, with this cooler Brisbane weather making me grateful for these cosy trench coats! Wearing them with some skinny jeans and jewel toned blouses for in-office days recently.


What I wore:






JacketJeanswest Monica Mac coat in Indigo
EarringsMimco silver stud earrings 
NecklaceTiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace layered with Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
BlouseJeanswest Frankie soft blouse in berry
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail 
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Mica Bag - Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB side zip tote in pale lilac hand painted by Sheila


Why I wore it:

This was a very good day to be in the office, with a few colleagues I hadn't seen in person for a while being in. It was so fun to catch up!

The cold morning made me want jeans, and I thought I had better dress up the zip detail jeans a little for an in-office day. This jewel tone blouse was great to make the jeans a little more formal, and it always gets compliments. I just love the berry colour!

Added a few silver accessories with the layered Tiffany necklaces and the Mimco stud earrings, even though the hardware on the hand painted Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag is gold I felt the mixed metals were far enough apart that it worked.



Last worn: navy Macintosh, Mimco silver stud earrings, Tiffany notes heart necklace, Tiffany heart pendant necklace, jewel toned blouse, zip detail skinny jeans, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff hand painted mini MAB tote bag.

Other ways to wearnavy Macintosh and pencil skirt, jewel toned blouse and maxi skirt, zip detail skinny jeans and duster, black Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff hand painted mini MAB tote bag and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancyConverse in second trimester.





What I wore:



Jacket: Barkins beige trench coat
Earrings: handmade pink star clay earrings made by my sister
Blouse: Jeanswest Chana long sleeve stud top in night sky navy
Jeans: thrifted Zara pink frayed hem skinny jeans
Shoesthrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bag: Mica Bag - Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB side zip tote in pale lilac hand painted by Sheila


Why I wore it:

These pink frayed hem jeans would have been a firm casual Friday choice before the pandemic, but they fit right into the relaxed office vibe now with jeans an everyday of the week thing. My leader once removed loves them and compliments the colour every time I wear them. Since I like pink and blue together, the navy blouse seemed like a great choice with the pink. I didn't add any necklaces to this as the blouse has studded hardware on it already, and just tied it up to add a bit of detail at the neckline.

I was glad I tied the neckline up as without a scarf it was a little chilly in the morning, although this lined trench was easily buttoned up to keep me warmer. Again I wore the little hand painted Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag, I think that the blue and purple florals looked great with the pink jeans.


Last worn: camel trench coat, pink star earrings, navy blouse, pink frayed hem jeans, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag (above).

Stripe Dresses With Matching Scarves and Bags

With the cold winter weather in Brisbane lately (it's dropped down to 9 or 7 degrees Celsius some mornings!) I've gotten wear from some more winter pieces with these trench coats that are great for cold morning commutes. Wore them with some striped dresses as I felt I was wearing a lot of jeans and needed something a bit different.

With these neutral outfits I added colourful bags and coordinating scarves to brighten them up.


What I wore:



Jacket: Barkins beige trench coat
ScarfJeanswest Lucille golden yellow scarf
Earrings: gold pendant chandelier earrings
DressAtmos&Here navy stripe tee dress 
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
BagRebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip


Why I wore it:

It was good to get this trench coat out again! It's a favourite year after year. It's cosy and lined and perfect for a cold winter morning. I layered a slip under this navy stripe shift dress too, and some cosy fleece lined tights with the ankle boots to keep me warm.

With the dark navy and black stripes and the black tights and boots, I added more colour with the mustard scarf and the yellow Rebecca Minkoff Mini 5-zip bag. The scarf and bag aren't an exact match together but I still liked the two yellows against the neutral dress.

While it was a cold morning, it thankfully warmed up at lunch time. I was able to leave my jacket behind when I headed to a nearby restaurant, and still be warm enough. The trench was certainly back on for the afternoon commute home though!

ScarfFashion Scarf Girl colourful print scarf in green
Earrings: Lovisa mini mustard tassel earrings
Dress: thrifted Kmart white and navy long sleeve stripe tee dress
ShoesAsos Cleo leather boots in tan
BagRebecca Minkoff emerald green mini 5-zip rocker bag


Why I wore it:

I liked the outfit above so much that I created a very similar one with this other navy striped shift dress I have, this white and navy dress was an opshop find. Again I tried to coordinate my bag and scarf together, with this green mini 5 zip bag and the green shades in the printed scarf. I even added a little yellow into this outfit with the mustard tassel earrings to match the scarf print! Just like the outfit above, the colours in the accessories don't match exactly, but I really liked the combination.

With these tall leather boots and black leggings I was nice and cosy, and actually a bit too warm in the office! The navy trench coat was very much needed on both the commute into the office and home again in the afternoon though, and I was grateful for the warmth of it when we had a couple of errands to run after I picked the kids up from school in the afternoon too.

Jewel Tones Blouses With Skinny Jeans | Weekday Wear Link Up

Some business casual outfits with jewel toned blouses and skinny jeans for today's Weekday Wear Link up! Getting out an old office bag for another spin too, the Mulberry oak Bayswater.


What I wore:

navy macintosh with berry blouse black skinny jeans ballet flats winter outfit | awayfromblue

navy macintosh with Mulberry Bayswater in Oak NVT leather | awayfromtheblue


Jacket: Jeanswest Monica Mac coat in Indigo
Necklace: engraved interlinked silver circle family name necklace
TopJeanswest Frankie soft blouse in berry
JeansNobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
ShoesWalnut Melbourne 'Ava' black lizard ballet flats
BagMulberry Bayswater in Oak NVT leather


Why I wore it:

I didn't wear this to the office, but it's something I totally would wear to work! As well as working from home and doing the school run I had an appointment that afternoon I was a little concerned about, so tried a version of power dressing. If I hadn't fallen down the stairs and twisted my ankle the day before, I would have pulled out a pair of confidence boosting heels too! I settled for more comfortable and practical ballet flats.

I thought the formal trench and classic black jeans, with a pretty berry blouse and the Bayswater tote looked like I meant business, to help me get into the right mindset for the appointment. The tote fit a notebook as well for the session, which didn't go as badly as I had feared! Even though it was warmer in the afternoon and I ended up leaving the jacket behind, I still felt very pulled together in this outfit.


Last worn: navy trench, silver necklace, berry blouse, Nobody Denim skinny jeans, black ballet flats, Mulberry Bayswater tote.

Mulberry Bayswater Wear & Tear:

Jacket: Jeanswest Cassandra jacquard jacket
NecklaceTiffany diamonds by the yard necklace and Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Blouse: Jeanswest Chana long sleeve stud top in night sky navy
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagMulberry Bayswater in Oak NVT leather


Why I wore it:

This outfit does not translate as well in the photos as I felt wearing it! It's full of pieces I love, my favourite black skinny jeans, this navy studded blouse, and the fun jacquard jacket. Added the Adidas Superstar sneakers as I needed something comfortable for all the walking around - working in the office I get in much more steps than I do working from home! We did all go out and get something for lunch to bring back to the office and eat together too that involved a little walking.

As I'd used the Mulberry Bayswater tote in the outfit above, I figured it would be a good bag to take into the office. I did worry when I threw it on my shoulder that maybe with the silver jacket another bag would have worked better, but it's not that bad.

The jeans and blouse definitely look much too similar together though. I think if I'd gone with black jeans or grey jeans it would have been much better than this navy blouse with the faded black denim. I didn't feel that when wearing it, just when looking at these photos afterwards, so maybe just my poor photography skills!


Last worn: jacquard jacket, navy blouse, diamond necklace, Tiffany heart necklacefaded black jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Mulberry Bayswater tote (above).

Other ways to wearjacquard jacket and little black dress, navy blouse and pencil skirt, faded black jeans and double denim, Adidas Superstar sneakers and midi dress, Mulberry Bayswater tote and wrap dress.

Perfect for pregnancyjacquard jacket in second trimester, Mulberry Bayswater tote in third trimester.


How You Can Wear It:

Pretty jewel toned blouses are a nice top to wear with skinny jeans. Just make sure you have enough contrast between the colour of the blouse and denim, unlike my second outfit!
