What I wore:

Tank: Jeanswest Elissa leaf print tank
Jeans: Jeanswest Harper skinny pant in Russet
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Love Too in deep teal croc embossed leather
Why I wore it:
Wore this admittedly very casual outfit for another day in the office recently. Hybrid ways of working continue at my workplace with most people preferring to work from home, but we all took the opportunity to go into the office on this day so I could meet the Brisbane based people in my new project team. Most of them I've worked with before but it was good to see them all in person after over a year and meet some new faces I hadn't worked with before.
Didn't really want to go full corporate style because it was a cold day. Went with comfortable jeans and Converse and then this pretty fern print tank to dress the outfit up a little. Was good to get this trench coat out again as it didn't see much love last year with the 6 week March 2020 autumn lockdown. It's usually frequently worn for commuting in the colder months. I swapped it for a navy cardigan when I was in the office.
Since I wore this little croc Rebecca Minkoff Love Too bag last time I was in the office, wore it again this time. I liked the deep teal colour against the navy and red print of the tank and it was really nice against the burgundy jeans.
Last worn: trench coat, fern print tank, Tiffany heart necklace, burgundy jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff deep teal Love Too bag.
Other ways to wear: trench coat worn 30 ways, fern print tank and pencil skirt, burgundy jeans and kimono, Converse and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff deep teal Love Too bag and maxi dress.

Tank: Sass and Bide "For Easy Reference" tank
Jeans: Sass & Bide The Winning Day Lovestate jeans in magenta
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta
Why I wore it:
This was actually the cardigan I wore in the office on the day above! Liked it in that outfit so much I created a similar outfit for this quiet day of mum life. The Sass and Bide tank is quite light but the cardigan was thick enough to keep me cosy for the school run. I liked the neutral brown tank and navy cardigan with the bright magenta jeans too. These are such such fun winter staple. Again I went with Converse, blue ones this time to add even more colour to my outfit.Swapped out the teal Love Too bag for another Rebecca Minkoff bag, this small Edie bag. I thought the magenta was a nice matchy-matchy with the jeans. Didn't need to carry much either, just the school run, then playground and library with the little one and his water bottle fit in the library tote nicely.
Last worn: navy waterfall cardigan, coin necklace, brown printed tank, magenta jeans, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff small Edie bag.

How You Can Wear It:
Colourful jeans are a great choice in winter to stay warm while wearing a bright and cheerful outfit. You can add even more interest to your outfit with a cute printed tank and a warm neutral cardigan or coat on top to combat the winter chill too.
