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
Tee: Atmos & Here white essential v-neck tee
Skirt: thrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO 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 wear: white 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
Tee: Cotton On The One Deep V tee in marle nep white body black
Skirt: thrifted NWT Beginning Boutique Sahara red-orange maxi skirt
Shoes: Les Tropeziennes Par M.Belarbi leopard print and gold leather sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO 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 wear: white tee and shorts, colourful maxi skirt and leather jacket, leopard print sandals and dress, Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and blazer.

Black and White Jeans, Tee and Knit Outfits With Red Saddle Bag

Feeling uninspired with my winter wardrobe and having two quieter days in the office recently I stuck to an easy outfit formula of white tee, black skinny jeans and black knits, with a pop of colour from my little red Rebecca Minkoff studded saddle bag.

What I wore:

Jacket: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Earrings: thrifted red dinosaur skeleton earrings
Necklace: thrifted bronze foil statement necklace
Tee: Atmos & Here white essential v-neck tee
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus Roie Designs labradorite bracelets and pearl bracelets
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag in cherry red

Why I wore it:

This cosy knitted poncho was a good choice for a colder morning commute. It's not the most formal piece for the office, but I had a quiet day mostly at my desk and it was warm enough in the office not to need this, so I just wore the jeans and tee most of the time. I definitely appreciated the knit in the morning though, although at school pickup in the afternoon and taking the kids to sport it warmed up enough I didn't need to wear it.

With the black jeans, white tee, and black and white knit, the black and white Adidas Superstar sneakers seemed like a good matchy-matchy choice. I added a little colour with the red Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag, it really pops with a black and white outfit like this. Although it's hard to pick up in the photos, I wore my little red dinosaur skeleton earrings too and they got some lovely compliments, they are so fun.


Last worn: knitted poncho, dinosaur earrings, white tee, bronze foil necklace, faded black skinny jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag.
 
Other ways to wear: knitted poncho and white jeans, white tee and shorts, faded black skinny jeans and blazer, Adidas Superstar sneakers and dress, Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag worn 30 ways.

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Cotton On black knit wrap cardigan
Scarf: Fashion Scarf Girl zesty stripe tassel scarf in pink
Earrings: DIY red star clay earrings
Tee: Cotton On The One Deep V tee in marle nep white body black
Jeans: Nobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag in cherry red

Why I wore it:

Another office day with a white tee, black jeans and black knit outfit! It's a little hard to see because of the big striped scarf but I like this white tee as it's textured and adds a little more interest to an outfit.

Much colder start to the day as this was back in winter that I wore this, so I needed the scarf for warmth in the early morning commute. And I also really liked the pink and red combination of the scarf when it was against the black and white outfit and paired with the little red Rebecca Minkoff studded saddle bag. Although the shades of red of the scarf and bag don't match, I liked them together, and I added another bit of red with the tiny clay star earrings I made.


Last worn: black cardigan, striped scarf, star earrings, white tee, Nobody Denim jeans, leather Converse, Rebecca Minkoff studded saddle bag (above).

Other ways to wear: black cardigan and band tee, striped scarf and pencil skirt, white tee and orange skirt, Nobody Denim jeans and blazer, leather Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag worn 30 ways.

Black and White Jeans Outfit For The Office With Pink Crossbody Bag

Still loving and wearing my recently redyed Rebecca Minkoff Mini MAC bag! Using the bag as the perfect pop of pink with both of these black and white jeans outfits I wore to the office.

What I wore:

Earrings: gold heart and pearl earrings
Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Top: Kmart black batwing button up blouse
Jeans: Dannii Minogue denim high waist skinny jean in ecru
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC redyed with Angelus hot pink leather paint

Why I wore it:

Little photobomb from our newly adopted puppy Bonnie in these pics! And while I thought I'd be okay with these white skinny jeans because I had a day in the office, I quickly realised I was going to have to retire the white jeans, not the best choice to wear with an over-energetic puppy. She's still learning not to jump up, so although I did manage to wash the jeans clean, I probably won't be wearing them for a while! She was surrendered twice before we adopted her so it's going to take a while to teach her manners, and white jeans are not the best choice for this adjustment period.

I did like the white jeans with the white Converse and the black batwing blouse, just adding the little touch of colour with the mini MAC bag. It was a good office outfit, but not something that was good to be wearing when I got home and she jumped all over me!


Last worn: batwing blouse, Tiffany necklace, white skinny jeans, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag. First time I've worn the gold heart and pearl earrings on the blog as they were a Mother's day present from my boys.

Other ways to wear: batwing blouse and skirt, white skinny jeans and sequins, leather Converse and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag and dress.

Re-Dying My Rebecca Minkoff Mini MAC Bag:

---

What I wore:

Earrings: gold heart and pearl earrings

Jacket: thrifted Jeanswest cobalt blue blazer
Necklace: thrifted Belle Folie multi colour tassel necklace
Tee: Atmos & Here white essential v-neck tee
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail 
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual plus Marc by Marc Jacobs enamel turnlock stripey hinge black and white bangle and Hermes pink clic clac
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC redyed with Angelus hot pink leather paint

Why I wore it:

Another black and white jeans outfit for the office. With the plain white tee and faded black skinny jeans, this outfit was a little casual, even with the addition of the statement tassel necklace. The cobalt blazer I recently thrifted was the perfect topper for this on a cooler autumn morning in Brisbane, and to seem a bit more professional in the office. I really enjoyed this outfit, the bright accessories and cobalt blazer made it seem very cheerful.

And of course, black skinny jeans are a much better choice around a little puppy still learning not to jump up! We had hoped our older dog Cooper would teach Bonnie some good manners, but he seems content just to watch her and her craziness. It's so cute when they curl up together though, so glad we adopted them both.


Last worn: gold heart and pearl earrings (above), cobalt blazer, tassel necklace, white tee, zip detail black skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff pink mini MAC (above).

Other ways to wear: cobalt blazer and pink, white tee over a dress, zip detail black skinny jeans with green, Converse and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff pink mini MAC and stripes.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

Colourful Shorts and Cover Ups With White Tees and Converse

Two outfits using the same tried and true outfit formula, with some new pieces I recently scored at the opshop. Colourful shorts, white tees and little crossbody bags with these printed cover ups I thrifted for just $1 each!

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted no label leopard print cover up with waist tie
Necklace: thrifted gold and cream multi strand pearl necklace
Tee: Atmos & Here white essential v-neck tee
Shorts: thrifted pastel pink cotton shorts
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 

Why I wore it:

I like pink and leopard print together, so I added a couple different shades of pink in this outfit to complement the printed cover up! These pastel pink shorts haven't been worn in a while, and with the white tee and neutral leopard print cover up it needed just a little extra colour. The Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody bag in fig pink was a good way to add more colour. even thought the shades of pink are different, blush goes with everything really!

Wore this for a simple working from home day, with the school run and a playdate in the park after school.


Last worn: leopard print cover up, statement necklace, white tee, blush shorts, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff jean MAC.

Other ways to wear: leopard print cover up with teal, white tee and midi skirt, blush shorts and navy, white Converse and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff jean MAC and floral dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: white Converse in second trimester.

Jean MAC and Avery Crossbody Bag Comparison:

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Shein black floral print cover up
Necklace: Roie Designs multi chain layered beaded necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One Deep V tee in marle nep white body black
Shorts: thrifted red denim shorts
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Avery crossbody bag in burgundy

Why I wore it:

Another comfortable shorts and tee outfit with a pretty cover up. I liked the bolder colours in this outfit, it was a little more matchy-matchy with the dark floral print matching the red of the denim shorts and the burgundy crossbody bag. And of course plain white tees go with everything! Even added a black chain necklace to match the black background of the floral cover up.

Wore my white Converse again - it was another hot weekend and we had a bunch of errands to run. Converse are good for a lot of driving around.


Last worn: floral cover up, black necklace, white tee, red denim shorts, white Converse (above), Rebecca Minkoff Avery crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: floral cover up, white tee and jeans, red denim shorts and stripes, white Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Avery crossbody bag and jeans.

Adding Colour To Black and White Jeans Outfits In Winter | Weekday Wear Link Up

Sharing two black and white outfits I wore recently for today's Weekday Wear Link up. I like adding a pop of colour to an otherwise neutral outfit, and with it being winter in Brisbane I added some cosy but colourful layers to both of these outfits to brighten them up.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest waterfall drape cardigan in scarlett marle
Necklace: thrifted metallic clay bead necklace
Top: Kmart linen blend textured black tank
Jeans: thrifted Atmos&Here white straight leg jeans (new purchase)
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bag: thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue

Why I wore it:

Couldn't pass up these pristine white straight legged jeans at the opshop for just $1! I prefer skinny jeans over straight leg jeans, and I already have a pair of white skinny jeans, but for $1 I was eager to try these. They are such a comfortable fit too.

For their first wear I went with the classic black tank and as I had a little bit of driving to do with errands, the school run, and more errands after picking the kids up from school, my comfortable New Balance sneakers. With the dark navy Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag too this definitely needed a little extra colour! The red waterfall cardigan was super cosy for a cold winter day and I love how much it brightened up the black and white outfit. It was just the right layer to make this linen blend tank warm enough for the cold morning too.


Last worn: red waterfall cardigan, blue beaded necklace, black linen tank, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag. First time I've worn the white jeans as they were a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: red waterfall cardigan and pencil skirt, black linen tank and leopard print, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag and floral dress.

---

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Dotti black cocoon cape cardigan
Scarf: thrifted pink ombre tassel scarf (new purchase)
Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Tee: Atmos & Here white essential v-neck tee
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:

Another first wearing of a newly thrifted piece. I bought a few things in July! Since I liked the outfit combination above so much I wore something similar again the next week, this time with the black jeans and a white tee, and a black cardigan. The colour came from this awesome pink ombre tassel scarf. I have quite a lot of scarves, but couldn't walk past this one in the opshop for just $2! I really like the different shades of pink and how well they work with the black and white outfit.

Like above, it was another day of working from home and doing the school run, so comfortable Converse sneakers were perfect for that. I really liked this outfit. Except for the Converse and the white v-neck tee, everything was an opshop find! I've really been focusing on shopping preloved more often and adding a lot of thrift finds to my wardrobe over the past few years.


Last worn: black cocoon cardigan, Tiffany necklace, white v-neck tee, faded black skinny jeans, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid satchel (above). First time I've worn the scarf as it's a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: black cocoon cardigan and leopard print, white tee and midi skirt, faded black skinny jeans and blazer, black Converse and pencil skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid satchel and printed dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: black Converse in third trimester.

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.

Kmart Linen Shorts Outfits With Plain Tees and Colourful Cover Ups

Wearing these Kmart linen shorts I thrifted back in December into autumn by adding some longer printed cover ups on top.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Kensley summer tie-dye kimono
Necklace: thrifted wooden geometric bead necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One fitted v tee in washed poolside blue
Shorts: thrifted Kmart fuchsia linen blend shorts
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather 

Why I wore it:

While the kids were with the in-laws, I took advantage of some rare time to myself and went opshopping with a friend. I got some really cute things, I'll do a post on Friday about what I got. As always while I didn't get too much fashion related for myself I did spend an awful lot - books were $1 each so I stocked up on some for me and some for the kids too. After my relaxing morning browsing the opshops, I had to do a few less exciting things around the house in the afternoon.

I really like pink and blue together so the light blue tee seemed like such an easy choice with the hot pink linen shorts. And I think wearing the shorts and necklace I thrifted on my last trip brought me good thrifting luck again this time! The navy tie dye cover up was nice in the morning, it was a littler cooler and this is a comfortable piece that didn't overheat me later in the day when it did warm up. 

The aqua bag was a fun pop with the different shades of blue and the fuchsia pink too. I rarely match this bag to anything in my outfit, it is just such a good pop of colour on its own.

Last worn: tie dye cover up, light blue tee, chunky necklace, fuchsia linen shorts, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff aqua mini MAC.

Other ways to wear: tie dye cover up and denim skirt, light blue tee and shorts, fuchsia linen shorts with yellow, Rebecca Minkoff aqua mini MAC and maxi skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: Rebecca Minkoff aqua mini MAC at 39 weeks.

What's In My Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Mini MAC

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Eliza summer poncho in yellow floral
Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Tee: Cotton On The One Deep V tee in marle nep white body black
Shorts: thrifted Kmart cumin linen blend pull on shorts
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather 

Why I wore it:

This is a very bright outfit with the yellow and orange and aquamarine together! I saw this yellow printed cover up when I was wondering which one would go best with this white tee and orange shorts outfit, and while it is a very bright combination I think it was so fun to wear!

This was a fun but busy day, as I had the day off to spend with the kids and we tried to cram a lot in! The kids had a school holiday cooking class in the morning, we toured an environmental centre in the afternoon (and gave them some of our stick insect eggs because our girls have been laying a LOT of eggs!) and then my mum came over, and the kids had a haircut in the evening. These Sketchers sneakers were a must have for all the driving around.


Last worn: yellow cover up, Tiffany heart necklace, white tee, orange linen shorts, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff aqua mini MAC (above).

Other ways to wear: yellow cover up with olive green, white tee and printed jeans, orange linen shorts with navy, Sketchers and skirt, Rebecca Minkoff aqua mini MAC and blue dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Rebecca Minkoff aqua mini MAC in second trimester.

Orange and White Skirt and Tee Outfits With Olive Crossbody Bag

Sharing two very different tee and skirt outfits I wore recently, although both feature orange and white with my little olive mini Darren bag.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted wooden geometric bead necklace (new purchase)
Tee: Cotton On The One Deep V tee in marle nep white body black
Skirt: thrifted Kmart rust button up linen blend skirt
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren

Why I wore it:

I always like wearing thrifted pieces together! I picked up this rust linen skirt back in December, and I thrifted this chunky wooden bead statement necklace from the same opshop in March. While the white tee and rust button up skirt looked lovely together, I felt a necklace was really missing from this outfit, and the chunky navy and teal wooden beads were perfect against the white tee.

I really did not have to carry much, with nothing on the agenda other than a swimming lesson for my son as we'd had to move his regular lesson out to a different day. The little olive Darren bag was perfect for carrying the barest of essentials that I needed for the day.

I liked wearing the rust skirt to bring some autumn colour to my outfit, even if the weather here is still firmly set to summer!


Last worn: white speckle tee, rust linen skirt, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren bag. First time I've worn the necklace as it's a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: white speckle tee and blazer, rust linen skirt and stripes, Rebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren bag with mustard.

My Latest Purchases For March - Target Sale and Thrift Haul

---

What I wore:

Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace layered with Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Tee: Sass and Bide 'New Day Rising' tee in orange leopard print
Skirt: Target classic denim skirt in white  (new purchase)

Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren

Why I wore it:

Since I enjoyed the white, orange and olive combination in the first outfit, I repeated it again a couple days later for a very rare day off! I had a bunch of leave from work to use up, so took the kids to school, had an unproductive stop at the opshop where I came home empty handed, and a glorious massage before getting a few things done at home then picking the kids up from school. It was a nice relaxing day.

As I only had myself to worry about, again the little Rebecca Minkoff olive mini Darren bag was all I needed for the bare essentials. And I really do love the way the olive  works with this bright neon orange leopard print tee as well as it did with the rust skirt in the first outfit!

It was also a good excuse to wear this white denim skirt I picked up at Target in March. I figured that a day mostly to myself would mean it would stay clean, but of course I managed to cover it in chocolate, ha! Thankfully it washed out easy.


Last worn: orange Sass and Bide tee, Tiffany heart pendant necklace, Tiffany 5th Avenue heart necklace, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff mini Darren (above). First time I've worn the denim skirt as it was a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: orange Sass and Bide tee and maxi skirt, Converse and chambray dress, Rebecca Minkoff mini Darren and printed dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.
