We went to church with my parents for the Easter service in the morning, so I wore a cardi as it can get chilly with the aircon. Thought florals and pastel yellow was fitting for easter Sunday! The maxi dress was comfortable for the BBQ lunch at the in-laws too. Hope you had a lovely Easter, however you celebrated.

Very blue outfit today, so I went with pink accessories. Just a casual outfit for the last day of the long Easter break. Wish we could have another few days off to be honest! Over the holidays we managed to get a bit done and spend time with family which was nice. Pleased that the weather stayed so good as well.

Striped Top, Denim Shorts, Purple MAC | Grey Threadless Tee, Striped Maxi Skirt, Aquamarine Clutch

Here's what I wore on Good Friday:
Bracelets: the usual
Top: Cotton On round neck zebra stripe top
Shorts: Jeanswest denim cuff shorts
Shoes: Big W purple thongs
BagRebecca Minkoff MAC bag in Deep Purple


We had a very relaxing Good Friday, so wore a really casual outfit. It was nice and warm still, which is just what you want on a long weekend. I wear blue and pink together a lot, so thought I'd be a bit different and wear blue and purple together. I liked it, what do you think?

Hope you are having a lovely Easter break. I couldn't let it go by without sharing this video again, one of my favourite songs. It sums up beautifully why Christians celebrate Good Friday and Easter Sunday.


Last worn: stripe top, denim shorts, purple thongs, Rebecca Minkoff MAC.

Here's what I wore for a relaxing Saturday today:
Bracelets: the usual plus Marc by Marc Jacobs enamel turnlock stripey hinge bracelet in black and white
Tee: Threadless "I want to be Friends" grey tee (closeup of text)
Skirt: Thrifted black and white pleated striped maxi skirt from AWLQ jumble sale
ShoesAsos 'flame' leather flat sandals with multi straps
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAC with python embossed leather in Aquamarine


After being bitten badly by mozzies the past few days I opted for a maxi skirt today to try shield more of me, haha!
This tee is one of my favourite Threadless tees, it may even be one of the first I bought. You can see a close up of the text here. In one of my wardrobe clearouts I gave it and a few other tees to my sister. When she had a wardrobe clearout recently, I got it back! :) We also discovered that I had given her a tee and then ended up buying myself a replacement for it, but I'm sure that will come up another day. Can't remember the reason I gave this one away, but I'm glad I got it back and it has a funny story behind it now.


Last worn: striped maxi skirt, Asos sandals, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC. It's the first time I've worn the tee on the blog.
