Striped Tee Dresses With Snoods and Denim Jackets: Weekday Wear Link Up

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up, I'm sharing what I wore when I layered up some striped tee dresses with denim jackets and cosy printed snoods for winter, back in June.

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Kitty denim biker jacket
Scarf: Seed Heritage Paisley print snood
Earrings: Kmart silver leaf drop chandelier earrings
Dress: thrifted Kmart white and navy long sleeve stripe tee dress
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC bag in fig 

Why I wore it:

I really liked this outfit, although I wish it had been worn on a better day! I love this navy and white striped midi dress with pink bags, I've worn it with a neon pink bag before, and I really liked this pink Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody bag with it too. This paisley print snood is a firm favourite and print mixes with stripes well, and it's so very cosy.

Because this is a long sleeved dress, the denim jacket was just the right layer to wear on top to keep me warm. It was a milder day and I had a lot of running around to do as well so I didn't feel the cold much.

After the school run we had to take Cooper to the vet. We were able to pick him up later in the afternoon, after I'd picked up my son from school. Sadly, it wasn't good news that afternoon as the tests confirmed that he has heart problems. Luckily they think he will still live a long life but still not the all-clear we had been hoping for.


Last worn: silver earrings, moto denim jacket, paisley print snood, white midi stripe tee dress, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: moto denim jacket and maxi dress, paisley print snood with navy blouse, white midi stripe tee dress and skull scarf, blue Converse and shorts, Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC crossbody bag and floral dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: paisley print snood in second trimester.

Rebecca Minkoff Jean MAC Review:

What I wore:

Earrings: Colette Joanne teal and gold multi drop disk earrings

Jacket: Cotton On girlfriend denim jacket in whitehaven
Scarf: The Quintessential Cambridge Willow green floral snood
Dress: Atmos&Here navy stripe tee dress 
Shoes: Atmos&Here tan Lola leather ankle boots
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff emerald green mini 5-zip rocker bag

Why I wore it:

This was a much more fun day than the one above! Jess had invited me to a little Arbonne session she had with a friend - she sells Arbonne products so I thought I'd go along and see what it was all about. With the promise of trying out a 5 step skin routine and some makeup it was going to be a relaxing spa-like morning away from the kids! 😂 I didn't buy anything but still had a good time.

Kept my outfit simple following a similar formula as the one above: with a navy striped tee dress, white denim jacket this time, and ankle boots instead of Converse, as I felt they were a bit dressier. This pretty pastel print floral snood was a Christmas present from a friend and I'm so pleased I was able to give it a wear! Decided to go with my little emerald green Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag to compliment the greens in the scarf too. Really liked the different shades of green with this navy striped dress.

Last worn: white denim jacket, gold and teal earrings, navy stripe tee dress, tan ankle boots, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag. First time I've worn the scarf as it was a Christmas present.

Other ways to wear: white denim jacket and jeans, navy stripe tee dress and leather jacket, tan ankle boots and floral dress, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag with green kimono.

Perfect for pregnancy: navy stripe tee dress in second trimester.

How You Can Wear It:

Long sleeved tee dresses like this are a great option when the weather starts to cool, and easy to layer up with a classic denim jacket. Adding a scarf or snood lets you add more colour and print to your outfit too, as well as a little extra warmth on a winter day.

30 Ways To Wear A Neon Pink Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Mini MAC

Happy Easter! I hope you have a fun weekend celebrating, we will be, with our 3 day lockdown lifted early.

I love putting together 30 ways to wear posts with my bags as I always have so many old outfit photos to look through to narrow it down to just 30 outfits I've worn! Each month, I look through my blog archive of daily outfit photos and find things I've worn 30 ways or more to put these posts together. Inspired by The True Cost documentary that says we should aim to wear each thing we buy 30 times or more to reduce the impact of our fashion purchases.

Today it's the turn of this beautiful little neon pink Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag!

30 Ways To Wear A Neon Pink Bag

This cute neon pink Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC was an impulse buy back in May 2016. I'd seen the auction relisted a few times on eBay but the bag looked pretty worn. In the end I decided to go for it, it was under $30 even including shopping, and I reasoned I could redye it if the condition was too poor. It is a very worn bag but it's also an awesome shade so I just decided to wear it anyway. I know it will eventually get to the point it's too worn to wear and will need some TLC, but right now all people see (and compliment!) is that amazing bold neon colour!

Cost Per Wear

At $29.75, and having been worn 37 times, this bag is down to just 80 cents a wear, which is pretty good! And I intend to get quite a few more wears from it before I go down the redye route. For a bright and bold hot pink bag I didn't expect it would be as versatile as it has been in my wardrobe! I've worn it with a few different outfit options but I thought today I'd focus just on the colours I've worn it with to give you some ideas and inspiration for how you can add some neon pink to your outfit. Neon seems to come back as a "trend" every couple of years!

Neon Pink Bag With Black Outfits

This bag is a very bright neon pink and it doesn't really need any help to pop in an outfit. But it really stands out with black! It's a fun way to lighten up a black outfit and is such an easy way to wear it.

Neon Pink Mini MAC with Grey Tee Outfits

Another neutral this pink mini MAC bag works with is grey. I've worn my grey tees with the neon bag quite a few times, grey and pink is a lovely combination and this neon is a really bright way to do it.

Navy Outfits With Neon Pink Mini MAC

Just like the grey tee outfit above, blue and pink is another colour combination I wear frequently and I love the extra bold touch of navy and neon pink together. Just like I did with the other neutral outfits above, I sometimes add another little bit of pink in the outfit too but the mini MAC bag makes a great pop on its own against navy as well.

Olive Outfits With Neon Pink Bag

Pink and olive is a combo I never thought I'd try but once I gave it a wear once I was hooked and I find this really wearable! I like the contrast of the neutral olive and neon pink together. I particularly like wearing olive tops with this bag but my olive shorts work too!

Neon Pink Mini MAC With Other Shades of Pink

I don't have a lot of neon in my wardrobe and I certainly don't have a lot of neon pink! But I've found I can make my matchy-matchy outfits I so love when I try other shades of pink with the neon. Pastel pink printed jeans, a hot pink tank, even different shades of pink in a scarf all work well with this bag despite the shades being indifferent.

Purple With Neon Pink Mini MAC Bag

Pink and purple, much like pink and blue, are an easy combination and one I frequently rely on. As with the pink above I find any shade of purple, from a magenta cardigan to deep purple jeans, is such a pretty pairing.

Accessorising White Outfits With Neon Pink Bag

I don't have a lot of white in my wardrobe but I have worn this neon bag with white quite a lot! Like the black outfits I shared first, this bag really doesn't need a neutral base to pop as it does that all on its own. But it really stands out even more with a neutral base and white is another good colour choice to wear with neon pink. Perfect outfits for spring and summer.

Olive Tops With Neon Pink Mini MAC Bag And Shorts

Olive and pink is a really nice combination - especially when you pair this very fun neon pink mini MAC bag with an olive top. It's a great little pop of colour with an otherwise neutral outfit. And a simple pair of shorts and olive top was all that was needed for these two heatwave filled days.

What I wore:

Top: Target embroidered khaki tank
Shorts: thrifted Emerson white Bermuda shorts
Shoes: Wittner 'Jasmarie' studded sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus enamel coated Marc By Marc Jacobs Katie bracelet
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC

Why I wore it:

It was good to get these white shorts out for another wear, as I thrifted them near the end of summer last year and they didn't get a lot of wear then. This was a relaxed day with only one appointment to go to after the school run and we spent most of the day at home, so these comfortable shorts paired with a slouchy embroidered tank was a nice idea. 

I've worn this neon pink mini MAC bag with the olive embroidered tank before, I really enjoyed the combination then and I liked it again this time too, although less layers were needed! I added the pink enamel bracelet for a little bit of matchy-matchy too!

Last worn: olive embroidered tank, neon pink enamel bracelet, white Bermuda shorts, studded sandals, Rebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC bag.

Other ways to wear: olive embroidered tank and jeans, white Bermuda shorts worn two ways, studded sandals and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC bag with blue.

Perfect for pregnancy: studded sandals in third trimester.

Adding Another Pink Handbag To My Collection!

In case you missed it, I bought this adorable little Rebecca Minkoff bag on sale last month, so now I've added another pink bag to my handbag collection!

---

What I wore:

Necklace: House of Harlow sunburst necklace in silver and grey
Tee: Jeanswest Emma woven trim tee in dark green
Shorts: Jeanswest Parker printed shirred short
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual plus Roie Designs labradorite bracelets
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC

Why I wore it:

This was a bit of a busy day so I needed another easy and comfortable outfit - shorts and a tee was perfect, and the Converse were great for all of the running around. Had the school run, some errands to run, an appointment, and a very special Christmas gift to track down. End of the night was a takeaway and movie night as I was a bit tired out from trying to do so much!

The olive tee and black printed shorts was a nice neutral combination but even with the bracelet stack (which matches the tee nicely) and the silver statement necklace I felt this was missing something. The hot pink bag was the perfect finishing touch!

Last worn: olive tee, silver necklace, printed shorts, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC bag (above).

Other ways to wear: olive tee and denim shorts, printed shorts and kimono, Converse and printed jeans, Rebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC bag with purple.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

---

How You Can Wear It:

Green and pink is an unexpected combination but one that really works! Olive pairs nicely with blush and pastel pinks, or you can really contrast the pieces by picking a neon pink item instead, like this lovely bag.

Weekday Wear Link Up! Stripe Tee Dresses, Converse, and Pink Rebecca Minkoff Bags

Two very similar outfits for today's Weekday Wear Linkup, even though I wore them a week apart! Pairing striped tee dresses with Converse, pink Rebecca Minkoff bags and statement necklaces for easy working from home and school run style.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted gold and cream multi strand pearl necklace (new purchase)
Dress: thrifted Kmart white and navy long sleeve stripe tee dress (new purchase)
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC

Why I wore it:

Was excited to wear this dress for the first time, and a slightly cooler spring day was the perfect opportunity! I'd just bought it at the opshop the week before for $1. The necklace was thrifted in the same trip for $2 as well and they work really nicely together. The Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag was a preloved eBay find at just $29.75 so that leaves the Converse shoes as the most expensive piece in my outfit! I bought them over a decade ago though so don't remember exactly how much they cost.

The striped dress was so stretchy and comfortable for a day of working from home and doing the school run - and it looked nice and presentable for a zoom call too!

Last worn: white Converse all star, neon pink mini MAC bag. First time I've worn the dress and necklace as they are recent purchases.

Other ways to wear: white Converse all star and maxi skirt, neon pink mini MAC bag with monochrome black outfit.

Perfect for pregnancy: white Converse all star in second trimester.

My Rebecca Minkoff Handbag Collection:

---

What I wore:

Necklace: Jeanswest Taki necklace (c/o)
Dress: Atmos&Here navy stripe tee dress 
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

This navy striped tee dress is the reason I knew I had to buy the white striped tee dress! I really like this one and while it's a thicker fabric and so worn more on cooler days it's a firm favourite of mine. Really similar to the white one above too! Just a different hem and shorter sleeves, and of course a darker colour.

I accessorised this in a very similar way, with a pink Rebecca Minkoff bag, the Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody this time, and another statement necklace. Again this was a work from home outfit, as well as doing the school run and taking my son to an appointment in the afternoon. Another comfortable outfit for sitting at my desk all day working after running around dropping the kids to school.

Last worn: navy stripe tee dress, statement necklace, black Converse all star, Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag.

Other ways to wear: navy stripe tee dress and ankle boots, black Converse all star and tee dress, Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: navy stripe tee dress in second trimester, Converse in third trimester.

---

How You Can Wear It:

A striped tee dress is a classic and comfortable option! For days with the kids, pick one with a longer hem like the white one in the first outfit, or a dipped hem at the back like the second one. Because stripes go with everything you can add some fun statement accessories like a bright pink bag or a layered necklace.

Spring Outfits: Skinny Jeans, Converse and 3/4 Sleeve tops

Making the most of Brisbane's spring weather and starting to leave the layers behind! Before it heats up too much I reach frequently for my skinny jeans and Converse. It was nice to leave the scarves and extra layers behind on these warmer days, although I did need to add a denim jacket on a particularly windy spring day!

Both of these outfits feature a bright statement piece too.

What I wore:

Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace: Kmart rose gold and pink beaded necklace
Top: Dorothy Perkins 3/4 sleeve wrap top
Jeans: Portmans pink leopard print skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff 2012 sky grey mini MAC bag

Why I wore it:

I haven't worn these fun pink leopard print jeans in over a year! I'm trying to stop passing over "special" things in my wardrobe and just wear them anyway, even if I do feel a little overdressed. We didn't have much on this day, the school run and a little walk around the neighbourhood with my youngest while my eldest was at school, but I felt these jeans were overdue a wear!

They do make me happy each time I wear them, and I have worn them with this wrap top before. They look so good with blue! As it was a little windier than expected and threatening rain I added the denim jacket on top - the rolled up sleeves were the perfect length with this 3/4 sleeve wrap top.

The accessories were matchy-matchy too with the blue bag matching the blue wrap top and denim jacket, and the pink and gold necklace matching the leopard print jeans and the gold hardware on the bag! Really liked this outfit, even if it felt a little overdressed in the playground!

Last worn: denim jacket, blue wrap top, blush beaded necklace, pink leopard print jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag.

Other ways to wear: denim jacket worn 30 ways, blue wrap top and maxi skirt, pink leopard print jeans with grey, Converse and a dress, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag in monochrome outfit.

Perfect for pregnancy: denim jacket in second trimester, pink leopard print jeans and hidden baby bump, Converse in second trimester.

Rebecca Minkoff Mini MAC vs Mini 5 Zip Bag

---

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted pearl and heart charm long necklace
Dress: Kmart short sleeve textured dolman top in marigold
Pants: Jeanswest Cecile dove grey skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff emerald green mini 5-zip rocker bag

Why I wore it:

Again I wore my Converse and skinny jeans, this classic neutral grey pair this time. The Converse were probably a mistake though, after the school run the little one and I headed off to check out a new trail and while much shorter than I can manage, the ground was very uneven and rough which was a lot of pressure for my injured knee. Probably should have worn my ugly but supportive walking shoes instead! And should have worn some mozzie repellent too, we both got bitten like crazy!

Did like the way the Converse looked with this outfit though, and the grey skinny jeans with the black and white Chucks were great neutrals to let the marigold orange top pop. I like the way the skinny jeans balance out all the extra soft, cosy and slouchy volume of the dolman top.

To add just a little bit more colour I wore my green Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag with this - it really pops against the orange top!

Last worn: marigold dolman top, long chain necklace, grey skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag.

Other ways to wear: marigold dolman top with green jeans, grey skinny jeans with leopard, Converse and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff mini 5 zip bag and matching duster.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

How You Can Wear It:

Skinny jeans and Converse is a mum staple! For something a little different you can try introducing a statement piece, like printed jeans or a bright citrus top.

Skinny Jeans, Printed Tanks And Cardigans

Making the most of the warmer winter weather just before spring arrived, I got some of my printed tanks out when all I needed to add was a light cardigan. Wore some colourful jeans with them too.

What I wore:

Jacket: Paper Scissors grey wrap cardigan
Necklace: Target silver Alisha trinity pendant necklace
Tank: Atmos&Here 'Florida' tank in Aztec print
Jeans: thrifted ASOS petite green skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC

Why I wore it:

Wanted to wear light and colourful layers as it was such a warm day, so this 3/4 sleeve cardigan and a printed tank were perfect. Surprisingly it's the first time I've worn this mustard tank with the green skinny jeans! I really like wearing yellow with these green jeans so I was surprised to look back on the blog and see I hadn't paired the two together before.

I was a little disappointed to see I hadn't worn this tank in over a year and a half too - it really needs to be worn more often, it's a comfortable swing style and goes with so much - last time I wore it with purple.

With the printed tank and bright green jeans I kept the accessories simple with the matching silver mini MAC bag and silver circle necklace. Just wish it had been a little warmer at the end of the day! This outfit was perfect for the school run in the morning and afternoon but I had to layer up with a thicker coat for my son's sports in the evening when it got really cold.

Last worn: grey cardigan, silver circle necklace, Aztec print tank, green skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag.

Other ways to wear: grey cardigan and printed jeans, Aztec print tank and shorts, green skinny jeans and ombre knit, Converse and striped dress, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag and maxi dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: Aztec print tank hiding second trimester bump, Converse in second trimester, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag in third trimester.

Rebecca Minkoff Mini MAC Review:

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest Peggie kimono cardigan in purple mulberry marle
Scarf: Alexander McQueen modal skull scarf in white/pink
Tank: Atmos & Here Oregon stripe tank
Jeans: Sass & Bide The Winning Day Lovestate jeans in magenta
Shoes: New Balance white and blue sneakers
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Julian nylon backpack in bright blue (and Rebecca Minkoff 2012 sky grey mini MAC bag)

Why I wore it:

This was a really fun day! Spent the day with my sister taking her around our fave trail, enjoying the sunshine and the trees sheltering us from the worst of the wind. It was so nice to get out and treat ourselves to a takeaway lunch afterwards.

Added this light scarf to try combat the wind a little. This neon pink Alexander McQueen skull scarf is frequently worn with stripes, I really like the combination and despite it being a different shade of pink with the magenta skinny jeans I think they worked well together. Surprisingly I haven't worn this scarf at all this winter! I have been living in loungewear since we go out so little though, hubby and I share the school runs so I don't go out every day.

Keeping up with all the colour I added my purple cardigan and blue Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag. I did say I'd be wearing this cardigan and these jeans together again last time I wore them - the purple is such a nice shade with the magenta!

As you can see I swapped to my Rebecca Minkoff Julian bag to carry all the water bottles and some snacks on our little hike, but I wore the mini MAC bag for the school run and a quick Kmart shop in the afternoon.

Last worn: purple cardigan, pink and cream skull scarf, black and white stripe tank, magenta skinny jeans, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC, Rebecca Minkoff Julian.

Other ways to wear: purple cardigan and maxi skirt, pink and cream skull scarf with blue, black and white stripe tank and maxi skirt, magenta skinny jeans and grey tee, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC and floral dress, Rebecca Minkoff Julian with green.

Perfect for pregnancy: purple cardigan in second trimester, pink and cream skull scarf in second trimester.

---

How You Can Wear It:

A printed tank is a great combination with a pair of colourful jeans. You can add a light cardigan or scarf if it's a little cooler. Either stick with neutrals to balance out a colourful tank and jeans combo like I have in the first outfit with the grey cardigan, or layer up even more colour like I have in the second outfit with the pink scarf and purple cardigan.

Foil Print Tees and Denim Shorts With Bright Rebecca Minkoff Bags: Weekday Wear Link Up!

More casual outfits for this week's Weekday Wear Link up. Back in the summer of 2017/2018 I bought a few foil print tees. I tend not to wear them for everyday as they feel a bit more special than a regular tree, but I realised they hadn't been worn in a while. Going out with family felt like the perfect time to wear them. They pair so nicely with denim!

What I wore:

Jacket: New Look Petite print kimono
Necklace: engraved interlinked silver circle family name necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Anika foil stripe tee in white and silver
Shorts: thrifted Jeanswest distressed denim shorts
Shoes: Rebecca Minkoff Georgina studded gladiator sandals in blush
Bracelets: the usual plus enamel coated Marc By Marc Jacobs Katie bracelet
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC

Why I wore it:

Wore this blue and white outfit to go see Frozen 2 with the kids. They were so excited to see it, but we wanted to wait until we could all go together. Thankfully everyone's days off lined up eventually. It was so strange sitting there in the movie theatre watching the second Frozen movie with my mum, sister and my two kids, as when I saw the first one with my mum and sister I was pregnant with my eldest boy! He loved the songs and danced along in my belly so it's no surprise he still loves the movie now, ha!

I've worn this navy printed kimono with stripes before, it's a great way to print mix especially with the silver foil stripes on this tee. I kept the silver theme with the necklace, bracelet and the silver hardware on the pink mini MAC. Pink is another thing that's frequently worn with this kimono!

The studded gladiator sandals and the distressed denim shorts were simple pieces to wear with the colourful blue and pink outfit.


Last worn: navy printed kimono, circle necklace, silver foil stripe tee, distressed denim shorts, studded gladiator sandals, Rebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC.

Other ways to wear: navy printed kimono worn 3 ways, silver foil stripe tee in monochrome outfit, distressed denim shorts and Converse, studded gladiator sandals worn 30 ways, Rebecca Minkoff neon pink mini MAC and printed dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: navy printed kimono in third trimester.

My Favourite Rebecca Minkoff Bag:

---

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted red flat bead necklace
Tee: Jeanswest Kaylin star foil grey tee
Shorts: Jeanswest Sara distressed hot short
Shoes: Kmart sparkly silver glitter sneakers
Bracelets: the usual plus Edenborough Evans 'Ivy' silver cuff
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff red micro Avery cross body bag

Why I wore it:

Although you can't see it so well in the main photo this cream tee is covered in lots of little foil stars, the perfect sparkly outfit for a night out at Movie World's White Christmas event! Especially when paired with the silver glitter Kmart shoes, and the silver cuff. My sister thought the same - she and I matched with our star print tees and black shorts! It's no mystery why I dress the boys the same when my sister and I are still doing it as adults! 😂

As it was a Christmas event at the theme park I added some red accessories for a festive touch of colour. I wore this little red Rebecca Minkoff mini Avery tote bag last time we went too, it's a great size for my wallet and camera and it zips up securely to keep everything safe. The necklace was a nice bit of matchy matchy.

Once again we had a great time at the event, it was awesome!

Had so much fun at #mwWhiteChristmas earlier this week with the family 🎄 pic.twitter.com/CpGHDJ7mFB

Last worn: star print tee, red beaded necklace, black denim shorts, silver sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff micro Avery bag.

Other ways to wear: star print tee worn two ways, black denim shorts and scarf, silver sneakers and grey dress, Rebecca Minkoff micro Avery bag and matching jeans.

Foil Print Tees Under $50:

---

How You Can Wear It:

A foil print tee is a fun twist on a classic tee. Just like a plain tee, it works well with denim! You can continue the sparkle with other accessories like I have with the shoes and cuff in the second outfit, or just let the tee be all the sparkle and add some bright colourful accessories like red blue or pink.
