Spring Dresses Again! With Ankle Boots and Converse Chucks

More spring dresses! I am going to be very lost when baby T gets mobile and I need something more suitable than dresses to run around in, they are getting a work out this season.


Here's what I wore to go to my mother's group:

Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers
Necklace: House of Harlow Dynamic necklace in gold
Dress: Jeanswest 'Chelsea' printed dress (new purchase, on sale!)
Shoes: Acne pistol boots in "skin"


This dress is the first piece I've purchased for myself in November, after managing not to buy myself anything in October. Despite being my first clothing purchase in a while, it's not a well-thought out wardrobe need, it's a "I stopped by a Jeanswest sale and it was in my size" kinda purchase. I know I don't need any more dresses....but I still love it regardless! It's sure to get a lot of wear. It was on sale and there was the extra friends and family 40% off on top of the sale price, great score. It's still on sale online, just not with the extra discount.

For the first outing, I wore it with the ankle boots to go to my mother's group. The dress is a nice length so that it's easy to sit around and play with baby T and the other babies during tummy time without having too be too careful how I sit! The only thing I wish I'd changed about this outfit was my hair - it is just calling out for some nice beachy waves, but I was running behind already and had no time to do anything other than tie my hair back and hope for the best.


Last worn: Ray-ban Wayfarers, Acne Pistol boots. First time I've worn the dress as it's a new purchase.

Here's what I wore to go out to the doctors:

Dress: Atmos&Here 'California' drop waist tee dress
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black


Another Converse and dress outfit! I like the simplicity of that combination when I'm going to be baby wearing. Wasn't going anywhere special, just a short trip to the doctors with baby T.

The last time I wore this dress I wore it with the same Converse too, just with other accessories. Kept it a little more simple and pared back this time around. It was quite warm so I didn't add a scarf to accessorise, as it can get kinda toasty on a hot day with a baby strapped to you.

I did regret not having a scarf when a freshly-fed baby T decided that the walk to the doctor was too bouncy, and as a result spit up some milk on my shoulder as we sat in the waiting room! Thank goodness for baby wipes, they are the number one must-haves for life with baby. I hear that they remain an essential even as baby grows into a big kid too ;)


Last worn: drop-waist striped dress, Converse.

Grey Tee, Black Skater Skirt, Patent Mouse Flats | Peplum Tank, Purple Skinny Jeans

Black two days in a row! Black and grey and then a little more cheerful with black and purple.

Here's what I wore to visit a friend:

Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers
Necklace: House of Harlow 5 station necklace in black and silver
Top: Atmos&Here grey v-neck tee with rolled sleeves
Skirt: Jeanswest 'Helena' black jacquard skirt
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs mouse flats in black patent leather


Baby T and I went out despite the hot day to visit a friend and chat for a bit. So nice to be able to wear this skirt again, it's from the "after baby arrives" box I added clothes to as I outgrew them during pregnancy. It was mainly full of skirts and work dresses.

This skirt was something I wore in the early stages of pregnancy to help hide my tiny baby bump in the office. The little flare of the skater skirt style helped me feel less self-conscious about my belly. At the time the first trimester baby bump felt so huge, haha! Of course by the time baby T arrived, I was overdue and feeling very, very large!

Last time I wore this skirt I paired it with a grey tee also (and the same shoes!), but added a bright handbag for a bit of colour. Kept it monochrome this time, as all my things were in the black baby bag.


Last worn: Ray Ban Wayfarers, grey v-neck tee, jacquard skater skirt, patent mouse flats.

Here's what I wore to catch up with the ladies in my mother's group:

Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers
Top: Zalora basics ruffle hem tank in black (on sale)
Jeans: Jeanswest blackberry super skinny jeans
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs


Another catch up with some ladies in my mother's group at the local library. They have a weekly session for babies and it's fun to go there and sing some songs with baby T and chat with the other mummies outside of our regular meetings. Plus, it gets baby and I out of the house again, something that's really needed some days ;)

It wasn't too hot in the morning, so I wore jeans. Also stopped by that beautiful flower-shedding tree again to try get a better picture when walking Cooper. I prefer this angle over the last picture in this spot. Although really it might just be due to there being more flowers on the ground this time around!

I wanted to wear a little something to add a bit of interest to the peplum tank, and I picked out a scarf in the morning. However, by the afternoon (when I took this pic) I'd already removed the scarf as it was getting a bit warm. I do think this outfit would have looked better with a scarf though. What do you think?


Last worn: Wayfarers (see above), peplum tank, purple skinny jeans, Havaianas.
