White Denim and Blazers In The Office | Weekday Wear Link Up

Dressing up some casual white denim, Converse and tee outfits for the office with blazers. The perfect topper to make any outfit feel more pulled together for work.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Zara black blazer
Necklace: thrifted Eb&Ive black wooden bead multi strand statement necklace
Tee: thrifted Target crew neck tee washed coral red
Jeans: Dannii Minogue denim high waist skinny jean in ecru
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black

Why I wore it:

I like red and black together and I think the muted coral red of this tee works really well with the black jersey blazer and the black Stella McCartney Falabella bag. The black beaded statement necklace made it a little more matchy-matchy too, as did the white Converse with the white skinny jeans.


Last worn: black blazer, black beaded statement necklace, coral tee, white skinny jeans, white Converse, Stella McCartney Falabella bag.

Other ways to wear: black blazer and skirt, coral tee and leopard print, white skinny jeans and sequins, white Converse and pencil skirt, Stella McCartney Falabella bag with black tee.

Perfect for pregnancy: jersey blazer in third trimester, Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Nadine 3/4 sleeve dusky pink blazer
Necklace: thrifted pastel pink and wooden hexagon bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Marcs navy lurex detail foil tee
Skirt: Target classic denim skirt in white
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: thrifted Stella McCartney Falabella fold-over tote in midnight black

Why I wore it:

Another day for white denim in the office, this time my white denim skirt. Paired with this cute thrifted tee, which is navy with some sparkle thread running through it. Sadly the sparkle never translates well in photos!

Again I went a little matchy-matchy, wearing black Converse with the black Stella McCartney bag. The blush necklace and the blush blazer are another good bit of matchy-matchy too.

I really liked the colours in this outfit together, but even the light fabric of this blazer was a bit much when the day warmed up, one of those Brisbane spring days that felt like a summer heatwave.

Last worn: blush blazer, wooden necklace, navy tee, white denim skirt, black Converse, Stella McCartney Falabella bag (above).

Other ways to wear: blush blazer worn two ways, navy tee and tie dye, white denim skirt and tank, black Converse and shorts, Stella McCartney Falabella bag and maxi skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: blush blazer in third trimester, Converse in second trimester.

White Denim and Magenta Rebecca Minkoff Edie Crossbody Bag

Taking the opportunity to make some white denim outfits a little more cosy with some special cover ups for a couple of different days recently. I accessorised both outfits with my little magenta Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag.

What I wore:

Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings

Jacket: custom The Haus of Queenie sequin kimono
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton on grey tunic tee
Jeans: Dannii Minogue denim high waist skinny jean in ecru
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

Wore this for a very busy day! I'd finally gotten organised enough to sign up for a stall to sell some things from my wardrobe at Glad Rags Markets. I figured the awesome sequins from The Haus of Queenie would be a real conversation starter with everyone, and the outfit had plenty of admirers! I did get so warm setting up the stall I took it off for a little while, and as I was crawling around on the floor chasing a screw for one of my clothes racks I realised white jeans were maybe not the best choice!

I had a lot of tun though, and have booked a stall at a future market again! This little Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag was the perfect size for my essentials and a little bit of cash, although everyone that bought from me paid with card. My friend gave me a little payment reader chip for my phone that worked really well! I was pleased to see some of my accessories go so quickly, and I have a few ideas for changing up my stall next time.


Last worn: sequin kimono, heart studs, navy necklace, grey tunic, white jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: sequin kimono worn two ways, grey tunic and shorts, white jeans and blazer, Adidas Superstar sneakers and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag worn 30 ways.

30 Ways To Wear: Rebecca Minkoff Magenta Edie Bag

---

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Dotti black cocoon cape cardigan
Necklace: Roie Designs coral beaded tassel necklace
Tank: Sass and Bide "For Easy Reference" tank
Skirt: Target classic denim skirt in white
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

Again with the white denim! I have been wearing this skirt so much since I bought it this year, it's the staple I didn't know I needed. With the simple printed tank it was a bit too chilly for school drop off on an autumn morning, so I added this cute cocoon cardigan I picked up from the opshop recently. Never worn, I knew I had to have it, especially as it was just $1. It was nice and warm for the cooler morning, and comfortable for working from home before picking up the kids in the afternoon. I like how the neutral black, brown tank and white denim skirt let the little magenta Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag really pop.


Last worn: brown printed tank, coral tassel necklace, white denim skirt, Adidas Superstar sneakers (above), Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag (above). First time I've worn the cardigan as it was a recent opshop find.

Other ways to wear: brown printed tank and maxi skirt, white denim skirt with navy, Adidas Superstar sneakers ad floral dress, Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag worn 30 ways.

Matching Handbags With Prints, Denim Skirts And Tees | Weekday Wear Link Up

I was eager to wear my two new-to-me thrifted cover ups right away! Both featuring busy, colourful prints I decided to wear them with simple tees and denim skirts, and match my handbags to the colours in the prints.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Cotton On maroon wanderlust floral border cover up (new opshop find)
Necklace: thrifted metallic clay bead necklace (new opshop find)
Tee: Atmos&Here rolled sleeve oversized tee in wine
Skirt: Target classic denim skirt in white
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB crossbody with studs in desert rose

Why I wore it:

When I spotted this cover up in the racks at the opshop I thought it looked so familiar - I have the exact same one in a navy print! Had to get this maroon one too. I thought of wearing it with this purple tee right away. While it doesn't match the print as well as I thought it would, with the tee being more purple and the background being more maroon, I really liked the two pieces together. The white denim skirt was an easy matchy-matchy choice, along with this Rebecca Minkoff desert rose studded MAB crossbody bag that matches the peach in the leaf print really well I felt.

Loved the colours in this outfit, and it was nice and light for a very fun school holiday playdate at the park with the kids on such a sunny day.


Last worn: purple tee, white denim skirt, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody bag. First time I've worn the printed cover up and beaded necklace on the blog as they are both recent opshop finds.

Other ways to wear: purple tee and jeans, white denim skirt with pink, Rebecca Minkoff studded MAB crossbody bag and floral dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: purple tee in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Cotton On navy zig zag cover up (new opshop find)
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One Deep V tee in marle nep white body black
Skirt: Nobody Denim Piper vacation skirt in black distressed denim
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather 

Why I wore it:

I have quote a lot of blue based cover ups in my wardrobe, but I could not resist this one when I saw it on the racks at the opshop! I knew with the turquoise in the print it would be so fun to wear with some of the turquoise accessories in my wardrobe. Although this little aqua mini MAC bag didn't quite pull out the colour from the print as much as I hoped it would, I really like the extra colour it added to this outfit.

The necklace was a find on the same opshop trip! I have a few of these flat beaded necklaces now, and with blue being my favourite colour, this one is quickly becoming a staple. It was a perfect match with the print and I liked the navy together with the black distressed denim skirt.

Nice and easy outfit for the school run and working from home.


Last worn: white tee, distressed denim skirt, New Balance sneakers, aqua mini MAC bag. First time I've worn the navy cover up and the navy flat bead necklace as they are both recent opshop finds.

Other ways to wear: white tee and jeans, distressed denim skirt and sequins, aqua mini MAC bag and maxi dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: aqua mini MAC bag in second trimester.

Pink, Prints and Tank Outfits

Sharing two skirt outfits I wore recently with a few of my new purchases in March. Both have a pop of pink and some prints, but very different formulas and colours.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted no label tropical print tassel cover up (new purchase)
Necklace: thrifted multi strand multi colour disc bead necklace with tassels
 (new purchase)
Tank: Asos satin singlet in pink
Skirt: Target classic denim skirt in white
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather (get it in pink)

Why I wore it:

I found this cover up on the scarf rack at the opshop! I loved the colours and tassels. It was as I pulled it off the scarf hook I realised it was actually a cover up - and so was definitely coming home with me! Such a fun and colourful piece, and just $1! I was thinking about a nice neutral top to pair with it when I saw this hot pink satin tank in my wardrobe and realised it would look great with the turquoise. There is a bit of purple and red in the print, but no pink. I still think the hot pink and turquoise really popped together!

The neutral white denim skirt, another of my March buys, was a perfect pairing with all of that colour. And I couldn't resist going a little matchy-matchy with my accessories - the aqua mini MAC bag matching the turquoise in the print, and the tassel necklace matching the tassels on the hem.

Nice and colourful for a regular day with the school run, working from home, and a couple of errands.


Last worn: pink satin tank, white denim skirt, Havaianas, aquamarine mini MAC bag. First time I've worn the cover up and the tassel necklace as they are recent opshop finds.

Other ways to wear: pink satin tank and jeans, white denim skirt and green duster, aquamarine mini MAC bag with orange skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: aquamarine mini MAC bag in third trimester.

My Rebecca Minkoff Collection:

---

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted Eb&Ive black wooden bead multi strand statement necklace

Tank: Jeanswest Maji metallic tank in soft green and silver
Skirt: Target animal print ruffle hem mini skirt
Shoes: Wittner 'Jasmarie' studded sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff prune MAC with pom pom and tassel keychain

Why I wore it:

This was another very rare kid-free day off! I have had a few more lately as I worked a few weekends and earned that time off during the week. After taking the kids to school I had time for a little opshop browse (where I got the pieces in the outfit above) and I spent some time with my mum before we picked up the kids from school in the afternoon.

I wanted to wear this cute leopard print skirt I got from Target again. I really like pink and leopard together, I wore this skirt with pink last time I wore it too. The magenta Rebecca Minkoff MAC bag was a deeper pink with it, and I really liked it. The silver tank felt a little plain though, so I added this black statement necklace which matched the black in the leopard print and I think it really completed the outfit.


Last worn: silver tank, statement wooden necklace, leopard print ruffle hem skirt, studded sandals, Rebecca Minkoff MAC.

Other ways to wear: silver tank and printed jeans, leopard print ruffle hem skirt and pastel pink, studded sandals and floral dress, Rebecca Minkoff MAC and double denim.

Perfect for pregnancy: studded sandals in second trimester.
