Striped Tops, Jeans and Blazers With Blanket Scarves and Mimco Crossbody Bag

Adding some cosy blanket scarves for the cold winter commute to the office recently! Both of these blazer and jeans outfits have striped tops as well as the colourful scarves.

What I wore:

Jacket: thrifted Zara black blazer
Scarf: Louis Vuitton monogram shawl in bleu
Tee: Atmos&Here 3/4 sleeve stripe tee in berry white
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
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

A cold and foggy morning had me reaching for jeans and this Louis Vuitton shawl that is one of the cosiest blanket scarves I own. I like the bright cobalt blue pop of colour it adds to the black blazer and black jeans outfit. The blue goes so well with the red stripes on my long sleeved top as well. Kept me nice and warm on the cooler commute to the office.

With the black blazer and black jeans I reached for more black and wore my little Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag again.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest grey jersey blazer
Scarf: Marc by Marc Jacobs scarf in Island pine-print
Tee: Cotton On "The One" fitted v tee in Cole stripe white moonlight
Jeans: Jeanswest Harper skinny pant in Russet
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Similar outfit combination to the one above, but much more colourful! I went with my burgundy jeans that hadn't been worn in a while and were overdue another wear.

The grey blazer is lighter than the black one above, and the colourful mixed print scarf helped brighten up the outfit more too. Even if, unlike the day I wore the outfit above, this ended up being a very warm day and I'd shed the scarf by the afternoon on my way home from the office.

Again I wore the little black Mimco crossbody bag. It looks just as good with this more colourful outfit as it does with the matching black clothes in the outfit above.

Maxi Skirts, Pink Tees and Denim Jackets

Layering up my maxi skirts for warm winter weekend days with colourful pink tees and denim jackets.

What I wore:

Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace: mixed metal hammered pendant necklace
Tee: Kmart short sleeve cotton modal tee in tulip pink
Skirt: thrifted ruffle hem leopard print midi skirt 
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

Wearing this leopard print maxi skirt once again. I had one on my wishlist for a while, and actually tried on a few and regretted not buying them. So I was so pleased when I stumbled across this in the opshop - I'm definitely getting so much wear from it!

I like leopard and pink together so this super soft pink tee was a great pairing with it, although I did have to add the denim jacket on top to keep warm in the cooler morning. I went a little matchy-matchy with the black Mimco Mim-Mazing crossbody bag and the black Converse.

It was a stressful start to the day with a trip to the emergency vets with Bonnie who ate something she shouldn't have! But thankfully quickly resolved by the vet and we were still able to head down the coast to my parents place, just a little later than planned. Bonnie was able to rest on the drive as well, and got lots of love and attention with my family to help her recovery. Poor pup!

What I wore:

Jacket: Cotton On girlfriend denim jacket in whitehaven
Necklace: terrazzo and wood rose gold bead necklace
Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in azalea pink
Skirt: thrifted pinstripe maxi skirt
Shoes: thrifted white leather Chuck Taylor All Star Converse sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: MIMCO Mim-Mazing crossbody bag in black and light gold

Why I wore it:

I hadn't worn this grey pinstripe maxi skirt for a while, and a quiet weekend day with a couple of errands and a science event at the library with the kids seemed like a good day to get it out again. It's such a comfortable stretchy jersey, I always enjoy wearing it! 

Just like the outfit above, I added a pink tee, I like pink and grey together. The white denim jacket was a little attempt at matchy-matchy with the white beads on my necklace and white Converse, but this outfit really made me wish I had a black denim jacket. Nothing wrong with the white jacket, just feel a black one would have worked better here.

It was a little chilly that morning so maybe I should have went for a leather jacket instead, or even added a scarf! But we did spend most of the day indoors at the library event and I was nice and warm for that.
