Wardrobe Inventory 2015 Linkup

As I'm still playing catch-up with my posts, another two of my Fox in Flats style dare outfits from December. Also, my 2015 closet inventory and an invite for you to join the link up!


Here's what I wore to go out with baby:

Scarf: Alexander McQueen magenta skull scarf in roses print
Tank: Sass and Bide 'Musical Genius' tank
Jeans: Jeanswest 'shale' super skinny jeans
Shoes: Cotton On thin strap thongs in black
Bracelets: the usual plus Nicole by Nicole Miller bracelet
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC


The style dare for the dare was 'metallica' so I wanted to wear my cute little silver mini MAC bag, with this cute little cuff bracelet I won from a giveaway on Style of Sam. You can see a better pic of my accessories here on instagram. As it was another rainy and cloudy day, I decided to wear jeans. That was not a great idea as the humidity started to climb really quickly and I wished I'd worn shorts or a skirt instead! I did like the layering of the scarf and tank together though.


Last worn: Alexander McQueen Roses skull scarf, Sass and Bide tank, skinny jeans, thongs, Rebecca Minkoff metallic mini MAC.

Here's what I wore to have friends over:

Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers
Necklace: Nibbly Bits Abacus necklace in pop
Dress:  Jeanswest 'Chelsea' printed dress (on sale!)
Shoes: Nine West silver strap sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus House of Harlow sunburst wrap bracelet in cobalt
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Love cross body bag in grey


The style challenge for the day was 'slick hair', so I used my hair straightener. Of course by mid-morning when I took pictures the humidity had gotten to it and it's not as sleek as it was at the start of the day, haha. I always feel like I've put a bit more effort into an outfit when I straighten my hair, as it takes a while to do. I don't do it as often as I used to now, partly because baby makes it hard to have enough time to get all 'dolled up' each day, and partly because I've gotten lazy and used to not doing it!

I had some friends round for a little playdate with their son and baby T. Didn't quite work as their son is much older than baby T, although he did enjoy chasing Cooper and carrying him around and trying to carry baby T around too, hehe. I wore the bag and sandals for when I popped out quickly in the morning, but didn't need them in the afternoon when I stayed home. These sandals have never been the most comfortable when I wear them, and so this was their last wear to see if I would keep them. They are leaving my wardrobe, as the straps rub a little after a long period of wearing them.

Last worn: Wayfarers, Jeanswest printed dress, silver sandals, Rebecca Minkoff Love bag.

My 2015 Wardrobe Inventory

Rainy Day Outfits and Alexander McQueen Skull Scarves

After a hot and sunny Christmas day, we had a few days of rain that brought the temperatures down, much colder than a normal summer, so I took the chance to layer up a little! Also got to wear my Christmas present, my new LV speedy bag!

As it's a new year, a new start, I've finally gotten around to doing a wardrobe inventory...pretty scary numbers! I'll post about it on Wednesday, and I thought I'd include a link up.  I figured I wouldn't be the only person wanting to streamline their wardrobe this year, so hopefully you can take a count of what you own and post about it this week for the link up on Wednesday. The numbers of what I own even surprised me! I'll share more in a couple of days.


Here's what I wore to visit family:

Scarf: Alexander McQueen skull scarf in light blue
Tee: Spectrum basic v-neck tee in grey marl
Skirt: Asos colour block maxi skirt in red (on sale!)
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs studded mouse flats in grey
Bracelets: the usual plus gifted House of Harlow sunburst wrap bracelet in cobalt
Bag: gifted Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere (with Coach feather bag charm)


We had a really relaxed Boxing Day, after a busy Christmas day. We didn't go anywhere, so I didn't get a blog pic, although I did share what I was wearing on instagram as part of the DAREcember style challenge. After a quiet day playing with all of baby's new toys, we ventured out the next day to visit family for some birthday celebrations, and this is what I wore. The rain had set in and brought the temperature down, so I layered up a little. Didn't expect to still be wearing scarves in the middle of summer! Was pleased for the cool change to let me wear them though.

This maxi skirt probably wasn't the best choice, as I was dodging puddles trying not to get the lighter pink section wet! It was a good excuse to use my new Louis Vuitton speedy bag that I got for Christmas though - the damier ebene is perfect in the rain. I got the bracelet for Christmas too, an outfit accessorised with new items that worked with the style challenge theme for the day.


Last worn: Alexander McQueen skull scarf, grey tee, Asos colour block maxi skirt, Marc by Marc Jacobs studded mouse flats. First time I've worn the bag.

Here's what I wore to spend time with a friend:

Scarf: Alexander McQueen modal skull scarf in white/pink
Tee: Atmos&Here grey Arizona zip tee (on sale!) with pink Supre singlet underneath
Shorts: Jeanswest denim cuff shorts
Shoes: Acne pistol boots in "skin"
Bag: Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere (with Coach feather bag charm)


Hubby invited one of his mates over for lunch and a bit of golf at the driving range. Baby T and I didn't go golfing, but it was nice to spend a little time with his friend. It was another wet and rainy day, so again I took advantage of the cooler temps to layer a bit. I decided to give this bright tank under a zipper detail tee thing a try that I'd talked about last time I wore this grey tee. Very similar to the last time I wore it, just with the different zipper placement and a scarf! Definitely want to try this again next time I wear it, think I've found the purpose for the zippers now ;) The top is still available at the iconic as well if you're thinking about cooler autumn temps already - it's on sale.

The humidity cranked up a bit in the afternoon, so shorts were a good choice. Hubby really liked this outfit too, he complimented me on coordinating the pink scarf and tank together! The style challenge for the day was 'on your head' and I was so jealous of the ladies who participated with a sun hat - I'd been hoping to do that and spend some time by the beach, but ended up just putting a messy bun 'on my head' instead as it was definitely not beach weather.


Last worn: Alexander McQueen pink skull scarf, grey tee, denim shorts, Acne Pistol boots, Louis Vuitton speedy B (see above).
