What I wore:
Necklace: ZuriCollections blue polymer clay necklace
Top: Sass and Bide 'New Day Rising' tee in orange leopard print
Skirt: JayJays distressed denim mini skirt
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus House of Harlow sunburst wrap bracelet in cobalt
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather (get it in pink)
Why I wore it:
This was an easy outfit for a hot day! I like the boxy cut of this tee, although I do think that maybe I should have tucked it into this distressed denim skirt. I really loved it last time I wore it that way with another denim skirt. I felt comfortable and colourful in this all day though, it was only looking at the pics I thought I should have tucked the tee in.I like orange and blue together so the cobalt beaded necklace and House of Harlow wrap bracelet were easy accessory options with this, and the little aqua mini MAC really pops with the neon orange leopard print. It's not the first time I've worn this bag and tee together, I really like the pairing!
I'd planned a relaxed day for some child-free time after dropping both kids off at school. I did have a couple of errands to run, but I managed to make it to my favourite opshop for a very long and leisurely browse too. I didn't get much for myself but I did fill a bag of clothes for the kids that was just $5! Pretty good deals! The Adidas Superstar sneakers were nice and comfortable for the little bit of running around I did in the morning before school pick up in the afternoon.

Why I wore it:
Our usual Friday library visits have been pushed to the weekend now both kids are in school! After a great week at school I took the kids out to the library to pick up some new books, and then to the bike track for a little ride around. It was threatening to rain all morning but thankfully we were in the car on the way home before the rain started, perfect timing!This necklace is one of my recent opshop finds - it's the same as the turquoise one I thrifted at a different opshop back in December, what are the chances! I thought I'd keep it simple and use it with a monochromatic outfit with this grey leopard print tee and the black Nobody Denim distressed skirt, and black New Balance sneakers. The grey tee was a bargain Kmart clearance find a couple of years ago and as this is it's 6th wear I'm definitely getting good value from the $2 I spent on it!
Of course I couldn't have a completely neutral outfit - I always want to add some colour - and much like it was in the first outfit above, the little aquamarine mini MAC bag was a great pop with this leopard print tee. It looks so good with black and grey.

How You Can Wear It
Tess and denim are a summer staple! A printed tee, like these two leopard print ones, can add a little more interest to a simple tee and denim skirt outfit.
