What I wore:
Scarf: Fashion Scarf Girl pretty pink floral tassel scarf (c/o)
Dress: Asos grey skater dress
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: Chloe periwinkle small Paraty
Why I wore it:
Wore this to go to a special Under 8s celebration day at my son's school. Under 8s Week is a week of fun events and activities for the little ones, and while my son missed out last year because of the 6 week lockdown we had with no school, the school went all out this year for the event. Younger siblings welcome meant I got to spend a busy morning running around with both kids as they drew, did crafts, got their face and hair painted, had a dance party, played in the sand pit and with some construction toys. So much fun for them!It was a colder morning but I was hopeful it would warm up, so I layered up this old ASOS grey skater dress with this purple cocoon cardigan and bright mixed print scarf. I thought the print and colours would go nicely with the plain two tone grey dress, and the bright neon pink looked great with the purple cardigan. Ended up keeping both the scarf and cardigan on most of the day though - it didn't warm up as much as I'd hoped! Was an easy outfit for the fun day at school still, and a trip to the library before school pickup.

Adjusting The Strap On the Chloe Paraty Bag:
What I wore:
Scarf: Fashion Scarf Girl navy and pink cheetah print scarf
Dress: Cotton On 'Tina' white striped tee dress in Lissy black / Gardenia
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black
Bag: Chloe periwinkle small Paraty
Why I wore it:
This was a really chilly morning and I regretted my decision to wear this striped tee dress with bare legs for the school run! I had a busy day ahead though of last minute errands for my son's upcoming birthday party that weekend, and I figured we'd be rushing around between shops and the car so I wouldn't need anything too warm. It warmed up later too, and although I took the cardigan off I kept the scarf on all day.This leopard print scarf is a fun one I got from my mum for Christmas. I do love leopard print scarves with stripes, and I liked it with the dress! The pink spots are a close (but not exact) match for the magenta-ish purple cardigan too! This is the first cardigan I hit 30 wears with, it's so colourful and cosy for winter!

How You Can Wear It:
A simple summer dress can be easily layered up for cooler weather. By picking a neutral dress like the grey skater one or the black and white striped tee dress, you can use scarves and cardigans (and even your bag) to add more colour to your outfit.
