Skinny Jeans, Colourful Scarves and Cosy Cardigans | 4th July Sales

With the cooler winter weather in Brisbane, I've been wearing my jeans a lot. After our summer heatwaves continued into autumn and I spent most of autumn in shorts, it's a nice change. Jeans also make getting dressed in the mornings with two little ones really easy. And adjusting to life with two under 2 means I'll stick with the easy path for the moment!

What I wore:

Sunnies: Ray-Ban new Wayfarers (30% off at Nordstrom!)

Jacket: Jeanswest Alice longline Australian wool cardigan
Scarf: Alexander McQueen modal skull scarf in white/pink
Shirt: Jeanswest Helene sleeveless textured shirt in berry (on sale with an extra 40% off!)
Jeans: Jeanswest Super Skinny Jeans in Mid Indigo
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs silver tuxedo flats (on sale!)
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather

Why I wore it:

The style challenge for the day was 'pink till it hurts' which I had originally planned to do by wearing all pink accessories. After putting the pink tank and scarf on though I quickly realised adding any more pink to the mix would be a bit of an overkill! Was a nice casual (and with the buttons on the tank for breastfeeding, practical) outfit for errands in the morning and spending some time with family in the afternoon.


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarer, wool cardigan, pink skull scarf, pink sleeveless shirt, skinny jeans, metallic ballet flats, Rebecca Minkoff aqua mini MAC.

Other ways to wear: wool cardigan and a maxi skirt, pink skull scarf and navy stripes, pink shirt and lace pencil skirt in the office, skinny jeans and a floral kimono, metallic ballet flats and a tartan skirt, Rebecca Minkoff aqua mini MAC and denim shorts.

What I wore:

Sunnies: Ray-Ban new Wayfarers (30% off at Nordstrom!)

Jacket: Jeanswest Peggie kimono cardigan in purple mulberry marle

Tee: Monsterthreads star print graphic tee
Jeans: Jeanswest prima denim super skinny jeans in absolute black
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather

Why I wore it:

I went with a simple scarf to meet the prompt for the 'plaid is rad' challenge. I really like this pretty tartan scarf my sister brought me back from her travels in Europe.

This was a really simple outfit for a simple day. We had been having a tough couple of days and although I had planned at the start of the week to go out to playgroup, decided to stay home instead. Having a baby is a great reason to be kind and take time for yourself when you need it, and not try do too much. Having two under 2 is an even bigger reason! Since toddler T enjoys doing some activities out of the house each day, I decided to take the boys to the local park. It was a bit chilly so toddler T had the slide all to himself too.  It was a nice quiet alternative to a noisy playgroup and gave us a chance to relax a little.


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarer (above), tartan scarf, purple cocoon cardi, graphic tee, prima skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff aquamarine mini MAC (above).

Monochrome Winter Outfits With Colourful Touches and Silver Mini MAC Bag

It's the middle of winter here in Brisbane and I tend to go for darker neutrals more when it gets cold as it makes layering easy! A completely monochrome black or grey outfit, while easy to put together, doesn't seem very cheerful, so I usually add in a little touch of colour with my accessories.

I'm wearing my neutral metallic silver mini MAC bag in both of these outfits, so added some colour in other ways.

What I wore:

Jacket: Kmart striped maxi cardigan
Necklace: Nibbly Bits Abacus teething necklace in pop
Tee: Atmos&Here charcoal grey v neck tee
Jeans: Nobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (C/O, on sale!)
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC (on sale, 20% off!)
Nail Polish: OPI Fire Escape Rendezvous

Why I wore it:

An easy playgroup outfit! The style challenge for #witnerStyleFile on Instagram was 'monochrome Monday' which I thought would be easy enough to do, but the outfit looked a little dull before I added in the teething necklace for just a little pop of colour!

With the red nail polish and the pink and purple necklace, I felt I met the monochrome challenge while still being happy and having just a touch of colour.

This striped duster swishes around beautifully as I walk so I messed around a little in front of the tripod in the morning to catch a photo of it in all it's twirly beauty. Worked out quite well I thought!

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Alice longline Australian wool cardigan

Scarf: red tartan scarf
Tee: Atmos&Here rolled sleeve oversize tee in black (also in grey)
Jeans: Sass and Bide pale grey skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC (on sale, 20% off!)
Nails: OPI Russian Navy

Why I wore it:

Another easy outfit. We had playgroup again in the morning and then a doctor's appointment and a trip to the chemist in the afternoon. You get exposed to so many bugs in winter when you have kids!

This is incredibly similar to the outfit above, but with a black tee and grey jeans and jacket, reversing the black jeans and jacket and grey tee before. The style challenge for the day was 'scarf out loud', and the monochromatic outfit was the perfect backdrop for this bright and colourful tartan scarf. A tartan scarf might seem a little loud, but I love the colours in this one and find it really wearable - especially when the rest of my outfit is full of neutrals like this.


Last worn: Jeanswest wool cardigan, red tartan scarf, black v-neck tee, grey Sass & Bide jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff metallic mini MAC (above).

Other ways to wear: Jeanswest wool cardigan and maxi skirt, red tartan scarf and stripes, black tee and printed shorts in summer, grey Sass & Bide jeans with pink and purple, Converse and chambray skirt, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC and maxi dress.

How You Can Wear It:

Monochrome jeans and tee outfits are easy to pull together, perfect for a busy morning. You can add texture with a wool cardigan or more interest with a print like stripes. If you still feel the outfit is a little flat, you can add a colourful accessory. A bright necklace is good for any season, and a statement scarf works well in winter. A neutral outfit makes a colourful accessory really pop.

Blue Tees, Pink Jeans, Grey Cardigans and Luna Blue Edie Bag

Another fun set of colourful and comfortable jeans and tee outfits. Both following the simple outfit formula of blue tee, pink jeans, converse and a grey cardigan with my Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag.

What I wore:

Jacket: Paper Scissors grey wrap cardigan
Necklace: Kmart rose gold and pink beaded necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Shelley garment dye tee in faded denim blue
Jeans: Portmans pink leopard print skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

These pink leopard print jeans were definitely overdue another wear! I really like wearing them with blue, so it was an easy choice to wear the blue Converse Chucks and blue tee with them. While it was a warmer winter day and a scarf wasn't needed, I did add this grey cardi. 

Although the pink and rose gold necklace isn't an exact match to the pink of the leopard print, I thought that was a nice combination. My Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag is a great blue that goes with everything, so again while it didn't match I liked it in this outfit. It fit a library book inside my bag too as we took advantage of the public holiday and took the kids to an indoor play place. It was a beautiful day and all the other businesses in the area were shut for the holiday, so I was happy this place was open as it meant it was a little quieter than it usually is on a weekend. Perfect time to take the kids, they had a blast, and I got some reading time in as they jumped around on the play equipment!

Last worn: grey belted cardigan, blue tee, pink and gold beaded necklace, pink leopard print jeans, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wear: grey belted cardigan and maxi dress, blue tee and culottes, pink leopard print jeans with black, blue Converse and striped dress, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag and orange skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: pink leopard print jeans and hidden baby bump.

My Blue Handbag Collection:

---

What I wore:

Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings

Jacket: Jeanswest Alice longline Australian wool cardigan
Dress: Kisschasy blue tape band tee
Jeans: Sass & Bide The Winning Day Lovestate jeans in magenta
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

A very different shade of pink here, but again following the same formula as the outfit above. Pink jeans, blue tee and grey cardigan! I went with the magenta Sass and Bide jeans and the blue graphic print tee instead, to switch it up a little. No necklace this time as the design on the tee felt like enough interest for my outfit. The grey wool cardigan is a super cosy one, I needed it as it was a really cold August winter day, and I wanted the extra warmth! Did regret my choice a little though. We were heading out for a bit of shopping and to grab lunch with my mum - the shopping centre had the heaters on blast for the cold day and I was definitely sweating in this, much too warm! Needed it when we stepped back outside though.

As with the first outfit, again the Luna blue of the Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag didn't match any of the shades in the outfit, but I thought it went nicely with the blue and grey still. Nice and comfortable for a quiet weekend day, just a little too warm in the shops.

Just realised when writing up this post that this is the first time I've worn this cardigan since I rescued it from my desk when I went back into the office in 2021, it had been locked away in a closed down office since 2020. 😂


Last worn: grey maxi cardigan, heart studs, Kisschasy band tee, magenta jeans, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag (above).

Other ways to wear: grey maxi cardigan worn 30 ways, Kisschasy band tee and maxi skirt, magenta jeans and floral kimono, black Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag and culottes.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

How You Can Wear It:

Blue and pink are a winning combination, and a statement pair of pink jeans can really brighten up a jeans and tee outfit.

Two Ways To Wear a Mustard Tee: Mum Style

Back to Brisbane! Our Europe trip was fun and I enjoyed getting to layer up more, but it was so nice to get back home and enjoy some warmer weather. June is the start of winter in Brisbane, and yet it's nowhere near the levels of cold we experienced in Scottish spring!

I was also glad to get back to my full wardrobe, I liked my travel wardrobe but I missed the options from my full wardrobe - and I was really happy to get to wear this $3 mustard tee I picked up just before we left.

What I wore:

Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace:  Kmart navy and gold beaded tassel necklace
Tee: Big W mustard v-neck tee (recent purchase)
Skirt: Noisy May long denim maxi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan satchel in Harvest Gold

Why I wore it:

I knew I wanted to wear this mustard tee with my chambray maxi skirt - blue and yellow is a combination I love! I like wearing bright tees with this maxi skirt too, such an easy outfit. And a little matchy-matchy with the mustard Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan bag, even though you can see in the detail pic that they aren't the exact same shade of mustard.

While we were spending the morning out at the playground with friends I wasn't sure if there would be a breeze on the bay so I went with my denim jacket for a double denim outfit. I'm pleased I took this rather than a cardigan, it was easy to take on and off as the sun peeked out from behind the clouds. It did rain a little, but luckily no more than a shower. It was so nice to catch up with everyone after our trip and see what everyone had been up to while we were away.


Last worn: denim jacket, tassel necklace, chambray maxi skirt, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan bag. First time I've worn the tee on the blog as it's a recent purchase.

Other ways to wear: denim jacket and swing dress, chambray maxi skirt and printed tank, Converse and shorts, Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan bag with green jeans.

Perfect for pregnancy: denim jacket in second trimester, Converse in second trimester.

My Travel Capsule Wardrobe For Europe in May:

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Alice longline Australian wool cardigan
Necklace: navy and silver circle pendant tassel necklace
Tee: Big W mustard v-neck tee (recent purchase)
Jeans: Nobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (c/o)
Shoes: Walnut Melbourne 'Ava' black lizard ballet flats
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey

Why I wore it:

Returning to Brisbane means returning to routines and for baby boy that means specialist appointments! This is what I wore for one of those visits, this time around I kept the mustard tee as the only colourful piece in the outfit and paired it with a lot of grey and black.

This grey wool maxi cardigan has been a winter fave for a couple of years, it's so cosy! I did consider taking it to Scotland with me but decided my striped duster was more light weight and easier to travel with as it's less bulky. I did miss this cardigan a few times though, so when Brisbane had the winter cold snap it was good to cosy up with this cardi!

I was considering taking this bag over to Europe with me too but wasn't sure if it was the best choice, anticipating a lot of rain. I'm glad I took my Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere, but I was looking forward to using this bag again when we got home.


Last worn: wool maxi cardigan, navy tassel necklace, mustard tee (above), Nobody Denim skinny jeans, Walnut Melbourne ballet flats, Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag.

Other ways to wear: wool maxi cardigan and maxi dress, Nobody Denim skinny jeans and blazer, Walnut Melbourne ballet flats and printed skirt, Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag and denim shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: Walnut Melbourne ballet flats in third trimester, Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag in second trimester.

Yellow Tees Under $50:

How You Can Wear It:

A basic v-neck tee in a bright colour is just as easy to wear as one in a neutral shade! Try pairing it with your favourite colour for a bright outfit, or pair it with a mix of neutrals like I have in the second outfit to let it shine and be the star.

Striped Tees and Colourful Skinny Jeans With Cross Body Bags In Winter

Winter weather means getting my fun collection of colourful denim out to enjoy! A simple striped tee and jeans outfit is easy mum style, with a cosy cardi on top for Brisbane's cold winter mornings.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Alice longline Australian wool cardigan
Necklace: Uniquely Made with Love Sea Change necklace
Tee: Atmos&Here navy stripe v-neck tee
Jeans: thrifted ASOS petite green skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere

Why I wore it:

I really struggled with what to wear when I pulled this outfit together! We had a messy play morning booked in for the boys, and I had some older clothes for them to wear. For me it was a little harder as I didn't want to get anything dirty 😅

Went with these green jeans as they are an opshop find and so not an expensive loss if they were ruined, this wool cardi that's already starting to look a little old and a striped tee to disguise any possible paint spills 😂 The Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere is waterproof and easy to wipe clean so that was an obvious choice.

The boys had a fun time and although they were covered in the fake 'mud' I managed to keep my outfit clean! There was none of the paint there was last time that refused to wash out of their clothes.


Last worn: grey maxi cardigan, beaded necklace, navy stripe tee, green skinny jeans, Converse, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere.

Other ways to wear: grey maxi cardigan and maxi dress, navy stripe tee and flares, green skinny jeans and blue knit, Converse at disneyland, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere for international flight.

Perfect for pregnancy: navy stripe tee in third trimester, Converse in second trimester, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere in third trimester.

Jeans: Jeanswest blackberry super skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black

My uncle helped setup part of my wardrobe room too, it's a work in progress and I will share a video when it's all done!

Felt like it had been a while since I'd worn this striped tee, so got it out for another wear. With purple jeans for something different, and the blush pink Rebecca Minkoff Darren bag as I like pink and purple together. Easy outfit for a cooler day.

Striped Tees Under $50:

How You Can Wear It:

A striped tee and jeans is a classic mum outfit. It works in warmer weather and in cooler weather you just need to add a cosy cardigan on top. For something a little different, you can try some brightly coloured jeans instead of the traditional blue denim.

Printed Jeans, Silver Flats and Louis Vuitton Speedy Bandouliere

I have a large collection of jeans, but just like every other category of clothing in my wardrobe, I tend to have a few favourites I rotate between. When I realised I'd been wearing the printed jeans I bought in June quite a lot I thought I'd show some love to my other pair of printed jeans, my pink leopard print ones. Wore them both with gray cardigans, neutral tops and my Louis Vuitton Speedy bandouliere bag as it makes an easy outfit.

What I wore: 

Jacket: Paper Scissors grey wrap cardigan

Tee: Atmos&Here charcoal grey v neck tee
Jeans: Portmans pink leopard print skinny jeans
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs silver tuxedo flats (on sale!)
Bag: Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere

Why I wore it:

Although it was just a lazy Sunday with the boys, took the chance to wear these jeans again as they are long overdue a wear. It's been 10 months since I last wore them. I really like pink and grey together and a simple grey tee seems the perfect pairing with such a busy print. Even though I frequently wear grey tees with these jeans, I enjoy wearing them so much I'm not too concerned if they don't get worn with everything in my wardrobe.


Last worn: grey wrap cardigan, grey tee, pink leopard print jeans, silver ballet flats, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere.

Other ways to wear: grey wrap cardigan and a maxi skirt, grey tee and a baby bump, pink leopard print jeans at the beach, silver flats and blue jeans, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere and trench coats.

Long Cardis, Prima Denim Skinny Jeans and Scarves

Two more outfits I wore for the Winter Style File style challenge. It's nice that the winter weather has arrived and I can wear my ankle boots again! My prima denim skinny jeans, Chelsea leather ankle boots, tees and cosy cardis make easy SAHM winter outfits!

What I wore:

Jacket:  Jeanswest Alice longline Australian wool cardigan (on sale, 40% off knits!)

Scarf: Marc by Marc Jacobs bright blue stole
Tee: Oscar's Law 'Break the puppy trade' tee
Jeans: Jeanswest Bindi skinny 7/8 jeans in indigo luxe
Shoes: Asos leather Chelsea boots in tan
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC in aquamarine with python embossed leather

Why I wore it:

The style challenge for the day was 'put a scarf on it'. Easy to do with the cold weather making me want to layer!

I thought this was going to be a quiet and relaxing day, but after getting home in the morning and settling down to feed baby boy I checked my phone as I knew I had a doctor's appointment coming up that week. Only to find that my appointment was in 15 minutes! Thankfully the traffic lights were in my favour and we were only 5 minutes late for my appointment, and as the doctor was running a little late I was able to sit there in the waiting room and feed the now very cranky baby boy.


Last worn: grey cardigan, cobalt scarf, graphic tee, Prima skinny jeans, Chelsea boots, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC.

Other ways to wear: wool cardigan and a skirt, cobalt scarf and stripes, graphic tee and a maxi skirt, skinny jeans and a kimono, Chelsea boots and a chambray dress, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC and floral print.

Shoes: Asos leather Chelsea boots in tan

Why I wore it:

Another cosy cardi, skinny jeans, ankle boots and scarf outfit! Needed something simple as we had to stop by the shops on our way to playgroup that morning and I was in a bit of a rush. While the tan ankle boots don't look too bad I think black ones would have been better.

The style challenge for the day was to wear your favourite coat. I wore this a lot last winter, although this was it's first wearing this year. It's a "coatigan" which is a word that makes me giggle ever since I first heard it. A cosy cardi that's thick and warm enough to be a coat! It came in helpful as it was such a windy day.

Other ways to wear: black and white cardigan and a maxi skirt, star print scarf and floral tank, maroon tee and metallic gold jeans, black prima skinny jeans and a printed cami, Chelsea ankle boots and a blue dress, aquamarine mini MAC bag and red jeans.
