Scarves, Singlets and Maxi Skirts with Rebecca Minkoff Mini MACs

My 900th post! I've been blogging what I've wore for over 4 years now. Crazy to see that's meant 900 posts though, wow! And of course it would end up being a post where I talk about my love of accessories. Scarves, like handbags, are things I can never seem to get enough of.


I've been wearing my maternity singlets and maxi skirts a fair bit, so I've been thinking of ways to try make the outfit combination a little different each time I wear it. Although it's Autumn in Brisbane, the summer heat stuck around for a while and it was 30°C on the days I wore the outfits below. Lightweight scarves were the only layering option I could stand in those temperatures! The scarves help break up the boredom and repetition I've been feeling with my third trimester capsule wardrobe.

What I wore:

Scarf: white Target crochet detail scarf

Singlet: Jeanswest maternity tank in black
Skirt: Target black and white striped maxi skirt
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus Hermes pink clic clac and enamel coated Marc By Marc Jacobs Katie bracelet (on sale in rose gold!)
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC (on sale in black!)

Why I wore it:

Wore this to our regular weekly playgroup session. Last time I'd tried a black tank with this maxi skirt I thought it was missing a little something, and that a scarf would have been a good option.

I really liked this outfit, much preferred the scarf to break up the black a little. Felt happy and comfortable in this all day - and the pink bracelets were a nice way to add just a little bit of colour.


Last worn: crochet detail scarf, black maternity tank, striped maxi skirt, Havaianas, metallic mini MAC.

Other ways to wear: crochet scarf and chambray dress, black maternity tank and denim shorts, striped maxi skirt and a graphic tee, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC worn as a clutch.

What I wore:

Scarf: red and black skull print scarf

Singlet: Jeanswest maternity tank in white
Skirt: Jeanswest plain jersey black maxi skirt
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus Hermes Kelly double tour bracelet in rubis
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff striped coated canvas mini MAC in berry stripe

Why I wore it:

Another playgroup outfit! Being on maternity leave, I'm looking for new places to go with toddler T until the baby arrives, so we checked out another local group that we hadn't been to before, as well as running a couple of errands.

Felt this mini MAC hadn't been worn in a while, and with the red stripes it tied in nicely with the red skull print scarf.


Last worn: red skull scarf, white maternity tank, jersey maxi skirt, Havaianas (above), Rebecca Minkoff canvas mini MAC.

Other ways to wear: red skull scarf to dress up a SAHM outfit, white maternity tank and denim shorts, jersey maxi skirt and a graphic tee, boho dress and Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC.

Have a wonderful Easter. If you are celebrating God's great victory and the gift of life, or if you are just enjoying the food and family festivities I hope it's a relaxing and enjoyable time for you.

Rebecca Minkoff Bags, Maxi Skirts and Maternity Tanks: 3rd Trimester SAHM Style

Finishing up with sharing my #SNSColour style challenge outfits. While I'm behind with blogging, I was playing every day on instagram. I was really pleased that despite having a limited capsule wardrobe for the third trimester, I was still able to come up with something for the prompts each day.

What I wore:

Sunglasses: Ray-Ban new Wayfarers (on sale!)
Necklace: Lovisa blue leaf long necklace
Singlet: Jeanswest maternity tank in sea glass
Skirt: AT by Atmos&Here Mars striped maxi skirt
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC (on sale in black, also printed version on sale!)

Why I wore it:

The style challenge for the day was navy, and while I had considered wearing my navy kimono, I decided to go with this navy striped maxi skirt instead and a navy necklace. I really liked the navy and green together, a colour combination I've been enjoying wearing lately. Nice simple outfit for taking toddler T to playgroup.


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarer, green maternity tank, striped maxi skirt, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff metallic mini MAC.

Other ways to wear: green maternity tank and floral kimono, striped maxi skirt and a graphic tee, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC and denim shorts.

What I wore: 

Sunnies: Ray-Ban new Wayfarers (on sale!)
Necklace: House of Harlow sunburst necklace in silver and grey (on sale here!)
Tank: Jeanswest Sol Maternity jacquard tank (non-maternity version)
Skirt: Target grey marle maxi skirt
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey

Why I wore it:

The final style challenge was grey, which was easy to achieve. I have a lot of grey in my wardrobe, probably because it pairs so well with blue, my favourite colour.

Had a doctors appointment in the morning and then toddler T's gymboree lesson. It was easier keeping up with toddler T and all the sitting up and down wearing this maxi skirt than the maxi skirt above with the slit up the side like I wore previously! I really liked the combination of the printed top and plain maxi skirt too.


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarers (above), jacquard maternity tank, grey jersey maxi skirt, Havaianas (above), Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag.

Other ways to wear: jacquard maternity tank for the office, grey jersey maxi skirt layered up for winter, Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag and denim shorts.
