Bracelets: the usual
BagMarc by Marc Jacobs 'Classic Q - Karlie' Crossbody Flap Bag in blossom pink with silver hardware (Reebonz Australia competition prize)


Nice simple outfit for a Sunday. This maxi dress was lovely as there was a slight breeze and it was nice walking around in it, despite the dark colour. Even got the thongs (flip flops) out! Relaxing day, finishing with Church Online in the evening. Apologies for Cooper's fluffy butt in the photo, haha. He just didn't want to face the camera.

A little bit of layering today! Wasn't sure if the striped texture of the dress would pair nicely with the stripes on my tee, but I think it worked quite well. Felt quite cosy and comfortable in this all day, I really like this dress layered. Picked out this scarf to wear as originally I was going to wear a purple top underneath, but kept it for another pattern to add to the mix even though I wasn't wearing any purple.

Just a casual outfit for Casual Friday at work. Was actually cold enough in the morning to need a scarf as well as a leather jacket, not very nice to wake up to after the warmer weather for the past few days, haha. Went with pink as it matched the tee nicely and pink always looks great with this blue jacket :)

Have had another wardrobe clearout and listed a few things on ebay, including a couple of my handbags. Feel free to check it out, everything starts at 99 cents. Even the bags ;)


Last worn: blue leather jacket, pink skull scarf, neon pink stripe tee, Sass and Bide jeans, Converse, Mulberry Alexa bag.

Jeans and a tee again for Saturday today. Ran some errands in the morning, and walked Cooper in the afternoon. Wanted to wear my new jeans :) Saw and admired these jeans on the Sass and Bide instagram months ago, and was pleasantly surprised when I checked the site Wednesday and saw they were on sale! Bought them right away without hesitating of course. So happy to have them arrive on Friday after just buying them 2 days before.

Decided to wear my Mulberry Lily bag again, as I haven't worn it in a while. Wasn't sure if it was too much suede with the shoes and bag together though, what do you think?


Last worn: Cookie Monster teered suede flats, Mulberry metallic leopard print Lily. First time I've worn the skinnies as they are a recent purchase.
