Tiered Dresses And Statement Necklaces With Chloe Purple Paraty | Weekday Wear Link Up

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up, I'm wearing my Kmart tiered dresses again with sneakers and my little purple Paraty bag back during warmer days when autumn still felt like summer.


What I wore:

Kmart short sleeve tiered jersey dress in Fuchsia with orange necklace and purple paraty bag | awayfromblue

fuchsia pink dress with Chloe small Paraty bag in wine purple | awayfromtheblue


Earrings: Kmart pink resin teardrop statement earrings
Necklace: thrifted flat peach statement bead necklace
Dress: Kmart short sleeve tiered jersey dress in Fuchsia
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe small Paraty bag in wine purple


Why I wore it:

We had a lot planned for this day! Taking advantage of the school holidays we were able to visit my family, and attend a birthday party for one of the kid's friends. I'd picked this dress to wear as I needed something comfortable for a lot of driving and because my knee brace fits so easily under this dress. Definitely thankful I had picked sneakers to wear, as we got caught in traffic on the motorway and almost missed lunch with my sister it took us so long to get to her place! Luckily we made it to the afternoon party on time after being a little late for lunch, but it was definitely a car heavy day!

I like pink and purple together so this purple Paraty was an easy choice with the fuchsia pink tiered dress. The pink resin earrings are a little hard to spot with my hair but I thought went well with the dress even though they are very different shades of pink. I added the statement orange necklace for another pop of colour. I liked how none of the accessories matched but they all looked good with the pink dress.


Last worn: pink resin earrings, peach necklace, fuchsia tiered midi dress, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Chloe purple Paraty bag.

Other ways to wearfuchsia tiered midi dress in winter, Adidas Superstar sneakers and jeans, Chloe purple Paraty bag and florals.

Necklace: thrifted multi strand multi colour disc bead necklace with tassels
Dress: Kmart short sleeve tiered knit dress in indigo ink with pockets
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
BagChloe small Paraty bag in wine purple


Why I wore it:

This was a really warm autumn day! I'd normally throw a blazer over a casual dress like this to go to the office, but it was just too humid that morning to consider it. I thought the fun colourful tassel statement necklace helped dress this up a little in the absence of the blazer. It was a quiet day in the office also, with none of the big bosses in so I felt comfortable in a simple dress and Converse.

Purple and blue is another combination I love, so this purple Paraty was an equally good choice with this navy dress as it was with the bright pink one above.


Last worn: tassel necklace and pink, navy tiered dress, blue Converse, Chloe purple Paraty bag (above).

White Denim and Magenta Rebecca Minkoff Edie Crossbody Bag

Taking the opportunity to make some white denim outfits a little more cosy with some special cover ups for a couple of different days recently. I accessorised both outfits with my little magenta Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag.


What I wore:

Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings
Jacket: custom The Haus of Queenie sequin kimono
Necklace: thrifted flat navy statement bead necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton on grey tunic tee
Jeans: Dannii Minogue denim high waist skinny jean in ecru
Shoesthrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta


Why I wore it:

Wore this for a very busy day! I'd finally gotten organised enough to sign up for a stall to sell some things from my wardrobe at Glad Rags Markets. I figured the awesome sequins from The Haus of Queenie would be a real conversation starter with everyone, and the outfit had plenty of admirers! I did get so warm setting up the stall I took it off for a little while, and as I was crawling around on the floor chasing a screw for one of my clothes racks I realised white jeans were maybe not the best choice!

I had a lot of tun though, and have booked a stall at a future market again! This little Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag was the perfect size for my essentials and a little bit of cash, although everyone that bought from me paid with card. My friend gave me a little payment reader chip for my phone that worked really well! I was pleased to see some of my accessories go so quickly, and I have a few ideas for changing up my stall next time.

BagRebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta


Why I wore it:

Again with the white denim! I have been wearing this skirt so much since I bought it this year, it's the staple I didn't know I needed. With the simple printed tank it was a bit too chilly for school drop off on an autumn morning, so I added this cute cocoon cardigan I picked up from the opshop recently. Never worn, I knew I had to have it, especially as it was just $1. It was nice and warm for the cooler morning, and comfortable for working from home before picking up the kids in the afternoon. I like how the neutral black, brown tank and white denim skirt let the little magenta Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag really pop.


Last worn: brown printed tank, coral tassel necklace, white denim skirt, Adidas Superstar sneakers (above), Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag (above). First time I've worn the cardigan as it was a recent opshop find.
