Pink and Black Jeans and Tee Outfits With Love Too Bag

Two very different black and pink jeans and tee outfits, with patterned cover ups and my Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag.


What I wore:






JacketRebecca Minkoff Ruana poncho
NecklaceRoie Designs coral beaded tassel necklace
TeeCotton On The One Deep V tee in marle nep white body black
Jeans: thrifted Zara pink frayed hem skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather


Why I wore it:

It was good to get this cosy knit out again! The perfect topper to keep me warm for a day with the school run, working from home and a quick errand in the afternoon. I always enjoy getting this knitted poncho out each winter, it's like wearing a giant blanket really! The black and white pattern adds a nice bit of an interest to any outfit I wear it with, and it is warm enough so I just needed a plain tee underneath.  Added a little colour with the pink frayed hem Zara jeans, an opshop find.

The necklace doesn't have any pink in it but I liked the simplicity of it against the textures white tee and the pastel orange was a nice colour worn with the pastel pink jeans.

Tee: thrifted Cotton on grey tunic tee
Jeans: thrifted Jeanswest faded black cropped butt lifter jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
BagRebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather


Why I wore it:

Wore this for a busy day, with the school run, working from home, and packing up for and driving the boys to camp in the evening.

Of course by the time we left for camp I'd swapped the light floral waterfall jacket for a cosier hoodie, but during the day this light jacket was all I needed. I liked the bright burst of colour it added to the monochromatic grey tee and black skinny jeans outfit. The turquoise wooden necklace and deep teal Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag were nice accessories to add a little more colour too.

Navy Printed Dresses With Blazers and Purple Bags

Two navy and white printed tiered dresses for the office, with blue jackets and purple bags.


What I wore:






Jacket: Anko Kmart mid wash denim jacket
EarringsColette Tropadelic fuchsia coloured metal leaf earrings
DressSalty Crush Avery midi dress in charis blue relaxed button down tiered dress with balloon sleeves
ShoesAdidas Superstar sneakers
BagChloe small Paraty bag in wine purple


Why I wore it:

It was a really foggy morning on this day so I was glad I had this long maxi skirt, thankfully the fog dissipated by the time I was in the office and it turned into a warm and sunny day, so this denim jacket was the perfect layer. it kept me cosy on the cooler commute over this long sleeved printed maxi dress, and also for the afternoon, as I left the office early to take Cooper to a vet's appointment in the evening.

I really like the navy and white print on this dress, but felt like adding a little more colour to it. The fuchsia statement earrings and the wine purple Chloe Paraty bag don't match each other at all, but I like both purple and pink with blue so I really liked this combination.

it's the first time I've shared this dress on the blog - i picked it up at the Salty Crush online warehouse sale and it was a bargain. I really liked wearing it. It has pockets and while it's a light viscose the long sleeves mean I'm hoping to wear it a few more times in winter.


Last worn: fuchsia statement earrings, denim jacket, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Chloe wine purple Paraty bag. First time I've posted the dress as it's a recent purchase.

What I wore:






Jacket: thrifted Jeanswest cobalt blue blazer
Earrings: Colette Tropadelic purple beaded tassel statement earrings
Necklace: handmade silver and gold faux pearl beaded necklace
Dress: Anko Kmart Navy white print tiered dress from my sister's wardrobe
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star in pink foam
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote in plum


Why I wore it:

I wore this back at the end of autumn, when bare legs was possible! It's a lot cooler now it's winter in Brisbane. I really liked this outfit though. The navy and white tiered printed dress is from my sister's wardrobe, and just like the outfit above I added more colour with pink and purple accessories. The plum purple mini MAB tote bag is not the exact same shade of purple as the earrings, but I like the two together, and I added a little pink as well with the pastel pink Converse. The bright blue blazer was all the light layer I needed for this outfit on the commute to and from work. It helped make the dress a little more formal for in the office too.

This was another day I left the office early, to pickup the kids and go to an evening high school tour. They provided lots of food which was great, saved me having to cook late in the evening!


Last worn: purple tassel earrings, beaded necklace, blue blazer, navy and white tiered dress, pink Converse, Rebecca Minkoff plum purple MAB.
