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:

Jacket: Jeanswest Monica Mac coat in Indigo
Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Dress: Kmart teal floral print midi dress
Shoes: Asos Cleo leather boots in tan
Bag: Chloe 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 wear: navy 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
Shoes: Asos Cleo leather boots in tan
Bag: Chloe 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).

Other ways to wear: camel trench worn 30 ways, black floral midi dress and floral bag, tan boots worn 30 ways, Chloe purple Paraty bag and jeans.

Perfect for pregnancy: camel trench coat in first trimester.

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:

Jacket: Jeanswest Monica Mac coat in Indigo

Earrings: Mimco silver stud earrings 
Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace layered with Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Blouse: Jeanswest Frankie soft blouse in berry
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail 
Shoes: Converse 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 wear: navy 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 pregnancy: Converse 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
Shoes: thrifted 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).

Other ways to wear: camel trench coat worn 30 ways, navy blouse and pencil skirt, pink frayed hem jeans and blazer, white Converse and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag and dress.

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
Scarf: Jeanswest Lucille golden yellow scarf
Earrings: gold pendant chandelier earrings
Dress: Atmos&Here navy stripe tee dress 
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
Bag: Rebecca 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!


Last worn: camel trench, mustard scarf, gold earrings, navy stripe dress, black ankle boots, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip bag.

Other ways to wear: camel trench worn 30 ways, mustard scarf and LBD, navy stripe dress and leather jacket, ankle boots worn 30 ways, Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5-zip bag and florals.

Perfect for pregnancy: camel trench in first trimester, navy stripe tee dress in second trimester, black ankle boots in second trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Monica Mac coat in Indigo
Scarf: Fashion Scarf Girl colourful print scarf in green
Earrings: Lovisa mini mustard tassel earrings
Dress: thrifted Kmart white and navy long sleeve stripe tee dress
Shoes: Asos Cleo leather boots in tan
Bag: Rebecca 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.


Last worn: navy Macintosh, mustard tassel earrings, green scarf, white stripe dress, tan boots, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip bag.

Other ways to wear: navy Macintosh and pencil skirt, green scarf and grey dress, white stripe dress and leather jacket, tan boots worn 30 ways, Rebecca Minkoff green mini 5-zip bag and shorts.

Weekday Wear Link Up: Printed Tanks, Colourful Jeans and Converse

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up, wearing one of the easiest outfits: jeans and a nice top! Pairing these printed tanks with colourful jeans for some bright winter outfits recently.

Quick update too: I managed to achieve No Buy July again this year, no new fashion purchases! First month of the slow fashion season #FashionDetox completed as well! I did go out for a day of shopping with my mum and sister the other weekend but didn't buy any clothes - came home with some skincare and two tops my mum bought me.

What I wore:

Jacket: Barkins beige trench coat
Necklace: Tiffany & Co silver 5th Avenue notes heart pendant necklace
Tank: Jeanswest Elissa leaf print tank
Jeans: Jeanswest Harper skinny pant in Russet
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather

Why I wore it:

Wore this admittedly very casual outfit for another day in the office recently. Hybrid ways of working continue at my workplace with most people preferring to work from home, but we all took the opportunity to go into the office on this day so I could meet the Brisbane based people in my new project team. Most of them I've worked with before but it was good to see them all in person after over a year and meet some new faces I hadn't worked with before.

Didn't really want to go full corporate style because it was a cold day. Went with comfortable jeans and Converse and then this pretty fern print tank to dress the outfit up a little. Was good to get this trench coat out again as it didn't see much love last year with the 6 week March 2020 autumn lockdown. It's usually frequently worn for commuting in the colder months. I swapped it for a navy cardigan when I was in the office.

Since I wore this little croc Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag last time I was in the office, wore it again this time. I liked the deep teal colour against the navy and red print of the tank and it was really nice against the burgundy jeans.


Last worn: trench coat, fern print tank, Tiffany heart necklace, burgundy jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff deep teal Love Too bag.

Other ways to wear: trench coat worn 30 ways, fern print tank and pencil skirt, burgundy jeans and kimono, Converse and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff deep teal Love Too bag and maxi dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: camel trench coat in first trimester, Converse in second trimester.

My Rebecca Minkoff Handbag Collection:

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest waterfall drape cardigan in navy night sky marle
Necklace: For King & Country Priceless Australian coin and crest necklace
Tank: Sass and Bide "For Easy Reference" tank
Jeans: Sass & Bide The Winning Day Lovestate jeans in magenta
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

This was actually the cardigan I wore in the office on the day above! Liked it in that outfit so much I created a similar outfit for this quiet day of mum life. The Sass and Bide tank is quite light but the cardigan was thick enough to keep me cosy for the school run. I liked the neutral brown tank and navy cardigan with the bright magenta jeans too. These are such such fun winter staple. Again I went with Converse, blue ones this time to add even more colour to my outfit.

Swapped out the teal Love Too bag for another Rebecca Minkoff bag, this small Edie bag. I thought the magenta was a nice matchy-matchy with the jeans. Didn't need to carry much either, just the school run, then playground and library with the little one and his water bottle fit in the library tote nicely. 

Last worn: navy waterfall cardigan, coin necklace, brown printed tank, magenta jeans, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff small Edie bag.

Other ways to wear: navy waterfall cardigan and shorts, brown printed tank and metallic jeans, magenta jeans and leather jacket, blue Converse and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff small Edie bag and kimono.

How You Can Wear It:

Colourful jeans are a great choice in winter to stay warm while wearing a bright and cheerful outfit. You can add even more interest to your outfit with a cute printed tank and a warm neutral cardigan or coat on top to combat the winter chill too.

Weekday Wear Linkup! Ombre Knit Worn 2 Ways

For today's weekday wear linkup I'm sharing two ways to wear this fun ombre knit I bought a few years ago from Jeanswest. It worked perfectly for a busy day in the office and then dinner out with some mum friends in the evening.

What I wore:

Jacket: Barkins beige trench coat
Scarf: star print pashmina
Jumper: Jeanswest 'Serena' ombre knit
Skirt: Jeanswest black ponte pencil skirt
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs silver tuxedo flats
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

On a cold winter day, a nice knit jumper, black pencil skirt and fleece-lined tights is such an easy choice for the office, especially if you're in a casual work environment like I am. The ombre knit kept me so warm I only needed the fun star print scarf on the commute. The neutral stars pair perfectly with the camel trench coat. With all of the neutrals, even silver ballet flats, I felt this outfit needed a little pop so I wore my Rebecca Minkoff small Edie bag in magenta, such a great touch of colour.

It was a little bit of a hectic day at work, ending with a big presentation that I was quite nervous about! Thankfully I had my colleague there too helping me present, and I was relieved to get good feedback about our session afterwards, as well as some compliments on my knit! A forever classic I think.


Last worn: camel trench coat, star print scarf, ombre knit, black pencil skirt, silver ballet flats, Rebecca Minkoff small Edie bag.

Other ways to wear: camel trench coat and mustard dress, star print scarf and warp dress, ombre knit and leopard print jeans, black pencil skirt and printed tank in summer, silver ballet flats and jeans, Rebecca Minkoff small Edie bag and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: camel trench coat in first trimester, star print scarf in second trimester, ombre knit in third trimester, black pencil skirt in second trimester, silver ballet flats in third trimester.

Most Used, Least Used and Cutest Handbag Tag Video!

What I wore:

Earrings: Kmart blue fringe crescent statement earrings
Jacket:  Jeanswest black leather moto jacket
Scarf: red and black skull print scarf
Jumper: Jeanswest 'Serena' ombre knit
Jeans: thrifted Emerson red skinny jeans
Shoes: Acne pistol boots in "skin"
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff chevron quilted small Love crossbody bag in pale coral

Why I wore it:

After the day at work above, I quickly dashed home to get changed and get a photo before the sun set! I kept the same knit, as I love it so much, and just made a few extra changes to make a more cheerful outfit for an evening out with some mum friends trying a new restaurant.

I've worn this ombre knit with my burgundy pants before, but this is the first time I've worn it with my red jeans. I really liked the combination, and wanted to continue the red theme with the fun skull scarf. A black leather jacket seemed a more casual option than a trench coat, but still cosy, and I added some ankle boots to keep me warm. I did look at the photos afterwards and think I should have worn black ankle boots with this instead of my nude Acne pistol boots, but with these having a bit of a heel there aren't many opportunities in mum life to wear them and I jumped at the opportunity to wear them to dinner!

The coral mini MAC bag was a completely different colour, it really seems more peach than coral to me despite the official colour name,so I thought the orange and red would look nice together. I really liked this and had a wonderful night out!


Last worn: black leather jacket, navy tassel earrings, skull scarf, ombre knit (above), red skinny jeans, Acne pistol boots, Rebecca Minkoff small love bag.

Other ways to wear: black leather jacket at Disneyland, skull scarf and striped coatigan, ombre knit and purple jeans, red skinny jeans and printed tank, Acne pistol boots and maxi dress, Rebecca Minkoff small love bag and navy blouse.

Perfect for pregnancy: skull scarf in third trimester, ombre knit at 40 weeks, Acne pistol boots in third trimester.

Ombre Knits Under $50:

How You Can Wear It:

It's great to have pieces that do double duty in the office and outside of work too! A classic neutral knit is something you will find easy to wear for so many occasions. An ombre knit looks great with other neutral pieces or can be made more fun with brighter and colourful pieces.

Weekday Wear Linkup: Feather Print Scarves & Pencil Skirts For Winter Office Wear

For today's Weekday Wear Linkup, I'm wearing two similar pencil skirt outfits for work with some fun feather detail scarves. One is a feather print scarf and the other is embroidered feathers. Both are wonderfully cosy!

What I wore:

Jacket: Barkins beige trench coat
Earrings: Ana Luisa 'Olivia' tassel earrings in pink
Scarf: Nali feather print pashmina scarf
Jumper: white vintage knit jumper from my mum's wardrobe
Skirt: Cotton On 'Mica' mesh spot skirt in dusty pink
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
Bag: Mulberry Bayswater in Oak NVT leather (cheaper second hand)

Why I wore it:

It was a really cold day when I wore this! I know I've worn this pencil skirt recently but I really wanted to wear it again, this time with a cosy white knit that's originally from my mums wardrobe. Even the ribbed jumper wasn't enough to keep me warm though, the taupe feather print scarf was a must have for the cold morning. So were the ankle boots!

With all of the neutrals I went with my pink tassel earrings to add a little more colour, even though it's a brighter pink than the blush of the skirt I think it worked nicely.

Last worn: camel trench, pink tassel earrings, feather print scarf, white ribbed knit, polka dot pencil skirt, ankle boots, Mulberry Bayswater tote.

Other ways to wear: camel trench in a castle, feather print scarf and burgundy pants, white ribbed knit and leather jacket, polka dot pencil skirt and black blouse, black ankle boots worn 30 ways, Mulberry Bayswater tote and sheath dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: camel trench in first trimester, polka dot pencil skirt in first trimester, ankle boots in second trimester, Mulberry Bayswater tote in third trimester.

What's In My Bag: Mulberry Bayswater

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Monica Mac coat in Indigo
Scarf: grey and gold embroidered feather scarf
Tee: Spectrum basic v-neck tee in grey marl
Skirt:  Jeanswest zip detail ponte pencil skirt
Shoes: Walnut Melbourne 'Ava' black lizard ballet flats
Bag: Mulberry Bayswater in Oak NVT leather (cheaper second hand)

Why I wore it:

I felt a bit flustered this morning! The weather was much warmer, which meant me ditching the knit I'd planned to wear the night before, and just wearing a grey tee under my navy coat. I still wanted to wear my pretty feather embroidered scarf though, and I thought the darker grey worked nicely with the lighter grey of the tee.

With having to change my outfit at the last minute because of the weather, and already running a little late, I had a very rushed start to the day, especially after taking the first few photos with my bag facing backwards, and having to retake them again so you could actually see the detail on the Mulberry bayswater bag! Thankfully the day improved from there.


Last worn: navy mac, grey v-neck tee, feather embroidered scarf, black pencil skirt, black ballet flats, Mulberry Bayswater (above).

Other ways to wear: navy mac and stripes, grey v-neck tee and shorts, feather embroidered scarf and printed dress, black pencil skirt over a dress, black ballet flats and skinny jeans, Mulberry Bayswater and chambray dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: grey v-neck tee in second trimester, black pencil skirt in first trimester, black ballet flats in third trimester, Mulberry Bayswater in second trimester.

Feather Print Scarves Under $50:

---

How You Can Wear It:

A simple neutral top works well with a pencil skirt in the office. You can wear a knit if it's colder or a casual tee when it warms up a little. You can add a scarf for some extra interest and warmth in your daily commute too, and a printed or embroidered one is a great idea if your top is a basic neutral.

Weekday Wear Linkup: Neutral Dresses, Colourful Scarves and Mulberry Heritage Bayswater Bag

Simple winter workwear for today's Weekday Wear Linkup, adding colour to neutral dresses for the office with bright animal print scarves.

What I wore:

Jacket: Barkins beige trench coat
Scarf: Supre neon pink leopard print scarf
Earrings: Jeanswest Evy dangly earring
Dress: Jeanswest tucked ponte black dress
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs logo plaque flats in camel
Bag: Mulberry Bayswater in Oak NVT leather (cheaper second hand)

Why I wore it:

This scarf is such a fun statement piece, a classic little black dress is the perfect outfit to let it shine! An impulse $5 sale buy 5 years ago, it's only gotten 8 wears so far but I love it every time I wear it!

The fit and flare dress is sleeveless, so I did my trick of wearing a tee underneath it, but it was much too cold to consider going coat-less for the photos in the morning! You're only missing a plain grey long sleeved tee I wore under the dress. With the bright scarf being such a focal piece I kept everything else in my outfit neutral with the tan ballet flats and Mulberry Bayswater bag.


Last worn: camel trench, neon leopard print scarf, dangly earrings, fit and flare dress, Marc Jacobs ballet flats, Mulberry Bayswater.

Other ways to wear: camel trench and skinny jeans, neon leopard print scarf with grey, fit and flare dress in spring, Marc Jacobs ballet flats and wrap dress, Mulberry Bayswater and pencil skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: camel trench in first trimester, neon leopard print scarf in first trimester, fit and flare dress in second trimester, Marc Jacobs ballet flats in third trimester, Mulberry Bayswater in third trimester.

Wear And Tear: Mulberry Bayswater

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Monica Mac coat in Indigo
Scarf: red sheep print Fashion Scarf Girl scarf (similar)
Dress: Asos grey skater dress
Shoes: Walnut Melbourne 'Ava' black lizard ballet flats
Bag: Mulberry Bayswater in Oak NVT leather (cheaper second hand)

Why I wore it:

A different kind of animal print scarf, featuring the actual animal! This adorably cute scarf was a Christmas gift from my sister and I love the way the red pops against the grey skater dress and the navy macintosh jacket. It's not the first time I've worn this dress with a red scarf, I really like the combination!

As with the outfit above, I let the scarf make the statement and paired the outfit with my classic, go with anything little black ballet flats and Mulberry oak Bayswater tote bag.


Last worn: navy macintosh, sheep print scarf, grey skater dress, black ballet flats, Mulberry bayswater (above).

Other ways to wear: navy macintosh, sheep print scarf and printed dress, grey skater dress in Disneyland, black ballet flats and jeans, Mulberry bayswater and chambray dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: grey skater dress in second trimester, black ballet flats in third trimester, Mulberry Bayswater in second trimester.

How You Can Wear It:

A brightly coloured scarf is a great way to accessorise a classic dress. Changing the scarf makes a little black (or grey!) dress look new each time you wear it. It's a fun and affordable way to accessorise in winter.
