Green and Grey Jeans and Tee Outfits With Rebecca Minkoff Knit Ruana Poncho

Keeping warm in Brisbane's winter weather by layering up my working from home jeans and tee outfits with this cosy black and white Rebecca Minkoff Ruana. I've been wearing it a lot recently.

What I wore:

Jacket: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Earrings: Michael Hill stud earrings with aqua cubic zirconia in sterling silver
Necklace: thrifted blue knotted beaded necklace
Tee: grey marle pocket tee

Jeans: thrifted ASOS petite green skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe periwinkle small Paraty

Why I wore it:

I was working from home on this day, but first there was a breakfast event at my sons school to attend. It was a bit of a cloudy day and threatening rain, but that made it feel a little warmer so this Rebecca Minkoff knitted cover up was all I needed to layer over my grey tee and green jeans outfit to stay warm. I wear this knit a lot with grey tees, it's a good neutral option. 

I did decide to add more colour to this with the accessories, with the blue beaded necklace (as a recent opshop find), and the blue Converse and periwinkle blue Chloe small Paraty bag. It's a great bag for all the essentials plus a little more.

Thankfully the heavy rain held up until the kids were in class and I was back at home to work.

What I wore:

Jacket: Rebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
Earrings: gold heart and pearl earrings
Necklace: handmade silver and gold faux pearl beaded necklace
Tee: thrifted Cotton On The one crew tee in green
Jeans: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mimco black button bag

Why I wore it:

Another green and grey outfit with this Rebecca Minkoff black and white Ruana as a topper! This time it was a green tee and grey skinny jeans with white Converse. I added the beaded necklace for a little extra interest, and I liked how the white string matched the white Converse and the white thread in the knit, and the faux pearls matched the earrings. I've been enjoying this necklace since I made it from leftover beads after trying to repair a thrifted necklace that fell apart.

I had a big bag this time, this vintage Mimco button bag, as I had some documents to carry around. While I was working from home I used my lunch break to attend an appointment that I needed some paperwork for, and this bag fit it all nicely. 

Really appreciated this cosy knitted cover up in the evening too when the kids had sports, it kept me so warm!

Blue Knit Jumpers With Scarves and Black Jeans

Two more knit jumper outfits, with black skinny jeans and scarves. One I wore to work from home, the other I wore in the office.

What I wore:

Scarf: ASOS crinkle oversized leopard print scarf
Jumper: thrifted Valleygirl blue knit jumper
Jeans: Jeanswest black skinny jeans with zipper detail
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star in hot tea
Bag: Chloe small Paraty bag in wine purple

Why I wore it:

I wore this to work from home back in the holidays. I logged off in the afternoon to take the kids to a STEM class at the library, they really loved it! It was a colder day so I wanted to be warm, and this blue marle jumper was due another wear. It's a piece I thrifted a few years ago, and I've gotten more than 30 wears out of it, definitely a good opshop buy! 

I wanted to skip wearing a jacket, but still be warm, so I added this leopard print scarf. And the brown Converse were an attempt to be a bit matchy-matchy, even though they are a different shade of brown from the leopard print in the scarf. I added more colour with the purple Chloe Paraty bag, and also picked it as it fits all my essentials plus a couple of water bottles, perfect for when we went out in the afternoon.

Last worn: blue marle jumper, leopard print scarf, skinny jeans, brown Converse, purple Chloe Paraty bag.

Other ways to wear: blue marle jumper worn 30 ways, leopard print scarf and tee, skinny jeans and graphic tee, brown Converse and dress, purple Chloe Paraty bag and skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: blue jumper in first trimester.

What I wore:

Jacket: Kmart Anko full length oversized denim trench coat
Scarf: Jeanswest Lucille golden yellow scarf
Jumper: thrifted blue Kmart stitch detail knit
Jeans: Nobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
Shoes: Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

This blue knit seam detail jumper is also an opshop find, although I haven't hit 30 wears with it! I do enjoy wearing it and just bought a similar one in pink in the Kmart clearance recently. Again I wore it with black jeans, and instead of a printed scarf I wore this bright yellow one. With the blue jumper, blue denim trench coat, and Luna blue Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag, I felt like I needed an extra colour in this outfit to brighten it up a bit. And blue and yellow look so good together.

Even with the jumper and the jeans and the denim trench and scarf it was a bit chilly, one of those really cold winter days. I was glad to reach the office that morning!


Last worn: denim trench, yellow scarf, blue seam detail jumper, Nobody Denim Siren jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wear: denim trench and dress, yellow scarf and LBD, blue seam detail jumper and pink jeans, Nobody Denim Siren jeans and blazer, Adidas Superstar sneakers and shorts, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag and skirt.
