Blue And Green Shorts Tee Duster Outfits

I really like wearing blue and green together! I definitely don't agree with the "blue and green should never be seen" saying! Both these shorts and tee outfits feature different shades of blue and green together.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Delilah long line kimono in green floral
Necklace: thrifted yellow beaded statement pendant long necklace
Tee: black textured crew neck tee
Shorts: Jeanswest Trinity Bermuda denim shorts
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Julian nylon backpack in bright blue

Why I wore it:

This was a really fun day! We headed out to join in a science walk for Brisbane's Big Butterfly Count. The kids had a great time running around with their nets catching and identifying a bunch of different insects. We caught a few dragonflies along with the butterflies, and it was so interesting learning about them from the entomologist that joined us. Although I'm sure that we double caught some butterflies a few times, as the kids kept running backwards and forwards and as soon as one was released someone else was on its tail!

Needed a good practical outfit for a bush walk on a warm day, shorts and tee and sneakers were perfect. This black tee and denim Bermuda shorts felt a bit plain, even with the yellow necklace adding a little colour. So I added the green floral duster on top. Good for extra sun coverage and a little more colour. The cobalt Rebecca Minkoff Julian bag really pops against the green duster, and it was a good size for carrying all our water bottles.


Last worn: green floral duster, black textured tee, yellow necklace, Bermuda denim shorts, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff Julian nylon backpack.

Other ways to wear: green floral duster and dress, black textured tee and printed shorts, Bermuda denim shorts worn 30 ways, Sketchers and sundress, Rebecca Minkoff Julian nylon backpack and jeans.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted no label tropical print tassel cover up
Necklace: thrifted pearl and heart charm long necklace
Tee: Atmos & Here Avery marle tee in navy
Shorts: Jeanswest Tessa olive embroidered shorts
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: vintage original Rebecca Minkoff 5-zip in faded electric blue

Why I wore it:

I had a shorter work day, just working from home, because as well as the school run I had an appointment in the afternoon. Even had time for a super quick browse of my local opshop before picking up the kids.

Just like in the outfit above, I wanted to be comfortable. I haven't worn these olive embroidered shorts for a while but they are such a great piece as olive goes with so much. I really liked the navy tee with them, and then I added more green and blue with the brighter palm print cover up. I added yet another shade of blue with the electric blue Rebecca Minkoff 5 zip bag also. I liked all these different shades of blue and green together.


Last worn: palm print cover up, heart charm necklace, navy tee, olive embroidered shorts, tan slides, Rebecca Minkoff electric blue 5 zip bag.

Other ways to wear: palm print cover up with yellow, navy tee and leopard print, olive embroidered shorts worn 30 ways, tan slides and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff electric blue 5 zip bag with red.

Casual Christmas Outfits With Festive Tees and Shorts

Two casual festive tee and shorts outfits I wore for Christmas, for two very different days!

What I wore:

Necklace: personalised gold children's names charm necklace
Tee: Merry Christmas deer antler tee
Shorts: Jeanswest Tessa olive embroidered shorts
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff red micro Avery cross body bag

Why I wore it:

Wore this for a night out to Movie World for the annual White Christmas event. It's become a tradition, and it's so much fun! They have fake snow, the rides are open, there is a parade at the end of the night. We had a really good time, as always!

Wanted to be very Christmassy but also comfortable as it was such a humid evening - it ended up raining during the parade but we luckily had a spot undercover.

This little Rebecca Minkoff Avery tote bag is a great crossbody as it fits my essentials and my camera for the evening. I've worn it to this event before in a previous year. And with the red festive tee and the olive green shorts, it was a very Christmas-y outfit.


Last worn: festive reindeer tee, gold charm necklace, olive shorts, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff micro Avery tote.

Other ways to wear: festive reindeer tee and maxi skirt, olive shorts worn 30 ways, Rebecca Minkoff micro Avery tote worn 30 ways.

Red Handbag Collection:

---

What I wore:

Earrings: Colette Ciao Bella glitter ball drop earrings

Tee: festive glitter Santa tee
Shorts: Jeanswest Parker printed shirred short
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual plus Christmas ribbon bracelet
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff medium unlined tote in black with shellac studded dome hardware

Why I wore it:

This was an utterly exhausting day. It was Christmas eve, and as we were hosting Christmas at our place this year it was going to be a fun food and family filled day. Unfortunately my son needed to be rushed to the hospital and we ended up spending most of the day there. Thankfully the doctors and nurses got on top of things so we could return home later in the afternoon for Christmas eve! 

When I got home and got my son settled I quickly changed from the clothes I'd grabbed at the last minute that morning into this more festive Santa glitter tee and these cute black printed shorts. Thankfully I'd planned my outfit out in advance. As we were spending the afternoon at home I didn't really need a bag, but had this one in the photos anyway as I'd grabbed it in the morning and filled it with water bottles and books and snacks in case we had a long stay at the hospital. I was regretting not filling it with more food in fact!

It was a bit of a more rushed Christmas eve than usual but we tried to make it special for the kids, and we were just grateful we could be at home together for it in the end.


Last worn: gold bauble earrings, green festive Santa tee, black printed shorts, ribbon bracelet, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff black unlined tote.

Other ways to wear: green festive Santa tee and maxi skirt, black printed shorts and cardigan, Rebecca Minkoff black unlined tote and midi dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: green festive Santa tee and maxi skirt.

30 Ways To Wear: Jeanswest Olive Soft Pull On Shorts With Floral Embroidery

It feels a little strange to be featuring these soft pull on embroidered olive shorts while it's winter here in Queensland and definitely not shorts weather any More! Having hit 31 wears with them this year though they definitely deserve a post to showcase the different ways I've worn these cute soft shorts.

30 ways To Wear: Soft Olive Embroidered Shorts

Unlike the striped tank I shared 30 outfits with last month, these shorts were not an impulse buy but something I'd thought about for a while before buying. A sale was the prefect time to snap them up, and it's nice to have a light, soft alternative to denim shorts in Brisbane's summer heat and humidity. Plus the elastic drawstring waist is a nice change from button or zip up shorts! They are made from Tencel, so it's a nice light fibre for a hot day too.

Cost Per Wear

I bought these Jeanswest Tessa embroidered olive shorts back in November 2017. I'm surprised it's taken me four summers to get them up to over 30 wears, they feel like such a staple to me now! At the time I didn't have a lot of green in my wardrobe but I was trying to challenge myself to wear it more - and with the floral embroidery and soft Tencel these shorts are so cute I had to have them, even if I found green tricky to wear at the time. I bought them on sale for just $41.99. At 31 wears that's $1.35 per wear - not quite at $1 per wear figure most people aim for, but certainly getting there!

Olive Shorts With Yellow

Green and yellow are wonderful together and the nice thing about these neutral Olive Shorts is that they work with every shade of yellow I've tried with them! From a pastel, mustard or even more golden yellow, olive is the perfect pairing.

Olive and White

Being a neutral, olive does go with so many shades and while I've paired it with brighter yellows above it also goes well with other neutral colours! White is one of those. From a white tee to a white kimono, any white piece is good to wear with olive shorts.

Olive And Grey

Grey is one of my favourite neutrals but can be a little tricker to wear with these olive shorts when there isn't much contrast with the tones of the grey and olive shades. I usually counteract this by adding other bright pieces, like necklaces, kimonos or a neon pink bag to a grey and olive outfit.

Olive And Black

Much like white, black is another staple neutral I wear with these shorts. I'll happily wear black year round, so of course it works in summer with olive shorts too. Black tanks or even light jackets when it's cooler are a good option to let the simple embroidered shorts shine.

Olive And Navy

Definitely not a follower of the "blue and green should never be seen" rule - I think that blue and green are beautiful together! I wear navy a lot with these soft olive shorts. A classic navy tee is a great choice, but you can add more navy with a bag or kimono as I have in a couple of these outfits.

Olive Shorts And Striped Tops

Like the navy outfits above, stripes are another frequently worn option with the olive embroidered shorts. I like mixing stripes with other prints and so I like the way the stripes look with with delicate little floral embroidery on the hems.

Olive Shorts and Prints

Because the floral embroidery on these shorts is so subtle, sometimes I'll  try other prints with these shorts too! As you can see in this trio of outfits and the ones above a kimono is a good way to do this, but you can also try a mixed print tank, tee, or light scarf too.

Olive Shorts Layered With Knits

I've shared a lot of summer outfits with these shorts - as they are so good in the heat! But I've layered them up a little with knits for spring and autumn successfully. I find bright colours like the blue knitted jumpers work well, but cosy neutral cardigans in black and navy, as I've shown in the outfits above too, are a nice choice against the navy shorts.

Shorts, Sneakers, Cardigans and Rebecca Minkoff Love Bags

Layering up some shorts outfits for the start of winter (and the end of autumn) here in Queensland. A cardigan is a nice way to add a little extra warmth to shorts and a tee, but these are definitely my last shorts outfits for the season, it was the end of May and I was a little cold with bare legs in one of these outfits!

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Peggie kimono cardigan in purple mulberry marle
Necklace: Kmart navy and gold beaded tassel necklace
Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in azalea pink
Culottes: Kmart culotte short in navy lemon print
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Love cross body bag in grey

Why I wore it:

This is the outfit that made me realise it was time to pack the shorts away for winter! It was a very cold morning and didn't really warm up as much as I'd wished. Thankfully we weren't outside too much - just a quiet day with the kids, grabbing a couple extra groceries for the weekend and visiting the library.

I really like pink, purple and blue together so while I didn't find this outfit warm enough, I did love the colour combo! The purple cardigan looks great with the pink tee, and it's not the first time I've worn this pink tee with these printed culottes. Even though the pink in the print is a different shade, the tee and culottes work well together.

Comfortable Converse for a little bit of driving around and just a small handbag as we weren't out long - this neutral grey Rebecca Minkoff love bag was a nice choice with all the colour in the print.


Last worn: purple cocoon cardigan, navy and gold tassel necklace, pink v-neck tee, navy printed culotte shorts, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff grey Love bag.

Other ways to wear: purple cocoon cardigan and magenta jeans, pink v-neck tee and denim shorts, navy printed culotte shorts and graphic tee, white Converse and stripe dress, Rebecca Minkoff grey Love bag worn 30 ways.

Rebecca Minkoff Regular and Small Love Bag Comparison:

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Cotton On black knit wrap cardigan
Necklace: Kmart silver long circle pendant necklace
Tee: Atmos&Here navy stripe v-neck tee
Shorts: Jeanswest Tessa olive embroidered shorts
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff chevron quilted small Love crossbody bag in pale coral

Why I wore it:

Unlike the outfit above, this was the perfect choice for the day, as I wore this back in warmer autumn days. At one point I felt the cardigan was a bit warm - it is a very thick knit. Again I spent most of my time inside. I'd swapped my work days around that week to meet some project deadlines (I only work part time) which left me with a very rare day off that was also kid free. It was nice to just head out with the essentials - phone, wallet, keys and hand sanitiser. This little Rebecca Minkoff small love bag is perfect for that and I really liked the pale coral colour, which is really more of an orange, against the olive embroidered shorts.

Comfortable outfit for ticking a few things off my to do list, like buying a couple of extra birthday presents for my son without him or my younger one noticing! And then binge watching a few Superstore episodes on Netflix in the afternoon. Such a luxurious and relaxing day!


Last worn: black wrap cardigan, silver circle necklace, navy stripe tee, olive embroidered shorts, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff small Love bag in pale coral.

Other ways to wear: black wrap cardigan and jeans, navy stripe tee and skull scarf, olive embroidered shorts with yellow, Rebecca Minkoff small Love bag in pale coral and matching tee.

Perfect for pregnancy: black wrap cardigan and hidden baby bump, navy stripe tee in third trimester.

How You Can Wear It:

A light cardigan is a cosy topper over a shorts and tee outfit when the weather isn't quite warm enough for bare arms and legs. Great for autumn or spring!

Ombre Knits With Olive And Blush Rebecca Minkoff Darren Bag

Again with the winter knits! While I wore these outfits in autumn it was starting to get pretty cool as we got closer to the start of June and the official start of winter in Brisbane, so definitely time to get my winter knits out! Wearing an old ombre favourite and a new one I scored from my sister's wardrobe clear out, both with olive and blush.

What I wore:

Necklace: blush pink and gold beaded tassel necklace
Jumper: Jeanswest 'Serena' ombre knit
Jeans: Jeanswest Vicki skinny pant in moss green
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff small Darren messenger bag in peony (more affordable preowned!)

Why I wore it:

This was a really windy day so I wanted to layer up. While this is a thin open knit, because it's so open I always wear something under it too like a tee or tank, and that helps keep me warm. My son was being honoured at school and I was working from home, so I took a late lunch to go watch the ceremony.

I was surprised I hadn't worn this brown toned ombre knit with the olive skinny jeans before, they seem like such a good neutral pairing! I was worried the outfit was a bit too pale with all these neutrals, so added the blush tassel necklace and Rebecca Minkoff small Darren bag for a little extra colour. Plus the bag fits my camera for taking photos of my son during the ceremony.

Unfortunately though I think that another colour would have been better to accessorise with here. Not the worst outfit, and one that was perfectly comfortable and practical for a day of working from home and spending some time at school, but I just don't think the blush Darren bag was enough of a pop here.


Last worn: brown ombre knit, blush tassel necklace, olive skinny jeans, white Converse, blush Rebecca Minkoff Darren bag.

Other ways to wear: brown ombre knit worn 2 ways, olive skinny jeans and kimono, white Converse and striped dress, blush Rebecca Minkoff Darren bag and pink shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: brown ombre knit at 40 weeks, white Converse all star in second trimester.

Rebecca Minkoff Darren Messenger Review:

---

What I wore:

Necklace: Kmart navy and gold beaded tassel necklace
Knit: Jeanswest Beth ombre stripe knit pullover jumper in navy
Shorts: Jeanswest Tessa olive embroidered shorts
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff small Darren messenger bag in peony (more affordable preowned!)

Why I wore it:

This is a much more colourful outfit! I think this blue knit works well with the olive shorts - and while I kept the same bag, the blush Rebecca Minkoff Darren, I think it is better with this outfit because of the blue knit bringing more colour. I do like blush and olive together, I just need something extra for a bit more brightness in an outfit!

A cosy knit and soft shorts is an outfit formula I love to wear but I really need to take advantage of the weather to wear it when I can, before it gets too cold and wintery here! I shared a similar outfit previously, wanting to squeeze in some more wears from these cute shorts before bare leg season is over! The only downside for me with this outfit was the necklace - I thought it would be nice with the blue knit but it kind of gets a bit lost there - it wasn't really an outfit that needed a necklace with the ombre stripes, would have been better without it I think.

Had a busy day with the school run, errands and a trip to the playground and library with the little one. As I'd aggravated my knee injury I needed a little extra support - ended up needing to wear my knee brace when we got to the playground as too much driving can be really painful without it.


Last worn: navy bead and gold tassel necklace, blue ombre stripe knit, olive soft shorts, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff blush Darren bag (above).

Other ways to wear: ombre knit and jeans, olive soft shorts and floral kimono, New Balance sneakers and culottes, Rebecca Minkoff blush Darren bag and pink dress.

How You Can Wear It:

Olive is a staple neutral - and a good way to introduce green into your wardrobe if you don't have much of it already! These neutral olive shorts and skinny jeans work well with textured patterned tops like the ombre knits, and blush pink is always a good idea to accessorise with olive too!

Blue Knits With Different Shades Of Green and Rebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford Bag

Wore these cosy blue jumper outfits a couple weeks ago, when the end of autumn started to bring some unexpected winter temperatures and had me reaching for the winter knits. Blue and green work well together, as these outfits show.

What I wore:

Necklace: House of Harlow sunburst necklace in silver and grey
Knit: Jeanswest Beth ombre stripe knit pullover jumper in navy from my sister's wardrobe
Jeans: thrifted ASOS petite green skinny jeans
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford zip satchel in twilight

Why I wore it:

It was a particularly cold - and as you can probably tell from the pic - slightly windy morning! We had a couple errands to run but started the day off at our favourite trail first. The trees protected us from the breeze nicely and I ended up rolling up the sleeves on my jumper - maybe a bit too hot for both jeans and a knit on a bushwalk. Definitely appreciated the long sleeves and long pants later in the day when it cooled off though!

Since I had the blue knit and green jeans I decided to stick with this neutral navy bag. The Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford looks good against the green and compliments the blues in the knit nicely. The silver hardware was a bit of matchy-matchy with the silver sunburst necklace too.


Last worn: sunburst necklace, green jeans, Adidas Superstar, Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag. First time I've worn the jumper as I just got it recently from my sister's wardrobe clear out.

Other ways to wear: green jeans worn 30 ways, Adidas Superstar and shorts, Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag and floral dress.

What's In My Rebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford:

---

What I wore:

Scarf: Fashion Scarf Girl colourful print scarf in green
Knit: thrifted Valleygirl blue knit jumper
Shorts: Jeanswest Tessa olive embroidered shorts
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford zip satchel in twilight

Why I wore it:

This was an interesting day! I'd swapped my days around at the office for that week to support a milestone for my project at work so I was working from home, and thankfully my sister was free to watch the little one. It was hectic, but I was able to get a couple breaks in the day by dropping my eldest off at school in the morning and then heading out later with my sister to get takeaway for lunch. Even if she did get to sit and enjoy it with my youngest while I ate mine through a meeting at my desk in the home office 😅 Thankfully my sister did the school pick up for me in the afternoon, and I logged off just in time to make dinner before sports in the evening.

While I really appreciated the scarf in the cooler morning dropping off my son at school, it and the knit together were much too hot by lunchtime, and I spent the afternoon without the scarf for a bit. Definitely needed it back on for sports at night though!

I thought I'd try multiple shades of green in this outfit with the olive shorts and different colours of green in the print of the scarf. Surprisingly really liked this outfit, much more than I thought I would! I think the blue bits in the scarf complimented the cobalt knit and navy Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag nicely.

Last worn: cobalt knit, green pattern scarf, olive shorts, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford (above).

Other ways to wear: cobalt knit with orange, green pattern scarf with monochrome grey outfit, olive shorts and kimono, Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford and chambray dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: cobalt knit and hidden baby bump.

---

How You Can Wear It:

Any shade of blue works with any shade of green! You can see that in the first outfit with the brighter green jeans paired with the different shades of blue in the ombre stripe knit. Or in the second outfit, with the cobalt knit and olive shorts and different green shades in the print of the scarf.

Shorts, Cardigan, And Louis Vuitton Neverfull Tote Bag

Recently in Brisbane we were so lucky to get two public holiday Mondays in a row, one after the other! Sharing a couple of my outfits from those Autumn long weekends, enjoying the outdoors with the kids and wearing cardigan and shorts combos.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest waterfall drape cardigan in navy night sky marle
Necklace: Kmart gold and navy beaded necklace
Tee: Cotton On "The One" fitted v tee in Cole stripe white moonlight
Shorts: Jeanswest Tessa olive embroidered shorts
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur neverfull

Why I wore it:

Unfortunately, on this long weekend, it rained for two of the three days. When Monday brought clear skies we knew we had to get the kids out the house, so went to our favourite park for a bike and scooter ride, and then a play in the playground afterwards.

I wasn't sure if it was going to warm up much, so I added the cosy navy waterfall cardigan over the striped tee and olive shorts outfit to combat the morning chill. I really didn't need to though, it was such a warm and sunny day I ended up taking it off part way through our ride!

With the navy stripes on the tee, the navy and gold necklace seemed like another way to play up the matchy-matchy along with the navy cardigan. I really like navy and olive together, it looks so good with the olive embroidered shorts.

Wore the New Balance sneakers to provide support for my sore knee as we went around the trail - and the big Louis Vuitton Neverfull as it fit all our water bottles and some snacks for after the ride too!

Last worn: blue waterfall cardigan, navy and gold bead necklace, navy stripe tee, olive embroidered shorts, New balance sneakers, Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote.

Other ways to wear: blue waterfall cardigan worn belted, navy stripe tee worn two ways, olive embroidered shorts and kimono, Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote in third trimester.

Wear & Tear: Louis Vuitton Neverfull After 7 Years

---

What I wore:

Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings

Jacket: Jeanswest Peggie kimono cardigan in purple mulberry marle
Necklace: Colette crescent purple and gold necklace
Tank: Jeanswest Maya gather back tank in mid turquoise
Shorts: Jeanswest Valerie yarn dye stripe short in navy and white
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur neverfull

Why I wore it:

Making the most of another long weekend, we headed out with my family and the kids to check out a local bush trail. My parents had visited before and my Mum warned me I'd need support for my knee - however I forgot my knee brace, realised when we were already driving there and figured I'd be fine, I'd take the trail slow and I was wearing my supportive sneakers. Really should have turned back for the knee brace though, it was an unpaved and hilly trail so I suffered for a bit after it. So worth it though, such a beautiful trail and the kids had a blast clambering up and around some of the rocks!

Again I added a cardigan over my shorts outfit - this one was just a thin knit as I wasn't sure what the day had in store, it had been another cool autumn morning. Just like the day above though, it warmed up and I took the cardigan off for the second half of the trail. I thought the purple was such a nice topper over the monochromatic turquoise tank and navy culotte shorts outfit, and it did keep me warm before the sun peeked out from behind the clouds!

Again, I wore the Neverfull tote bag. Perfect for snacks, water bottles, and my camera for taking pics on the trail. Forgot to charge my camera though so the battery ran out quickly sadly!


Last worn: earrings, purple cocoon cardigan, crescent necklace, turquoise tank, navy stripe culotte shorts, New Balance sneakers (above), Louis Vuitton damier azur Neverfull (above).

Other ways to wear: purple cocoon cardigan and maxi dress, turquoise tank and maxi skirt, navy stripe culotte shorts with orange, Louis Vuitton damier azur Neverfull and sheath dress. 

Perfect for pregnancy: purple cocoon cardigan and hidden baby bump, Louis Vuitton damier azur Neverfull at 38 weeks.

---

How You Can Wear It:

Simple shorts and tee, or shorts and tank outfits can still be worn into autumn in Brisbane! To combat the chilly autumn mornings, a light knitted cardigan is a great layer - and it can easily be stashed into a tote bag for later when the day warms up.
