While I do try and stay away from the blue jeans rut, there's no denying that some days just call for jeans! Especially days running around with two toddlers under 3.
What I wore:
Cardigan: Paper Scissors grey wrap cardigan
Necklace: Nibbly Bits Abacus teething necklace in popTank: Jeanswest Florence print long line tank
Jeans: Jeanswest blackberry super skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey
Why I wore it:
I was so excited to get these purple jeans out, after 5 months of being boxed away. They always get a lot of love on Instagram when I wear them as they are such a pretty shade. It was a colourful pairing for this neutral printed tank.We spent the day at the army open day and I wasn't sure what the weather was going to do, so layering was key. I took the cardigan off pretty quickly through the day as it heated up, and even wished I'd gone with shorts at one point.
Aside from it being a little warm during those moments when the sun broke through the clouds, this was a perfect outfit. I love the colour, the combo of the pieces together, and how comfortable it was for a day out in the park.
I over shared a little on my Insta stories, but I couldn't resist. The boys had so much fun, especially on the rides. Toddler T was absolutely fearless and wanted to go on one of those giant fairground slides so with a little bit of uncertainty his Auntie and I went down with him to make sure he stayed put on the burlap sack you sit on. He loved it, jumped up at the bottom and ran back into the line screaming 'again!'. His enthusiasm was the highlight of the day for me!

Why I wore it:
This is one of the outfits where I liked the idea of it better than the resulting outfit. Possibly because the photo is terrible as the camera is leaning at an angle! 😅 While I like red and navy together I felt there was something missing from this outfit. Maybe a teething necklace, which I forgot to add before I went out the door! A comfortable outfit that I just didn't like as much as the first outfit, even though it's the same outfit formula.Wore this to playgroup with the boys. Just like the outfit above, I took the cardigan off for a while. It was off and on through the day as the temperatures changed.

How You Can Wear It:
Colourful jeans are a nice alternative to plain black or blue denim. They are surprisingly easy to wear too. The block colour makes them the perfect item to pair with a neutral printed top. If a printed top and colourful jeans feels like a bold choice, try neutral accessories like I have here with the grey cardigan and MAM bag.
