Bright Tees, Printed Jeans, Rebecca Minkoff Jumbo Love Bag

Two simple but colourful jeans and tee outfits I wore for spring, with my big cobalt Rebecca Minkoff Love bag, printed jeans, and bright v-neck tees. Easy mum life outfits!


What I wore:

pink leopard print jeans with purple tee, cobalt jumbo Rebecca Minkoff Love Bag and Converse | awayfromtheblue

pink and purple outfit with Rebecca Minkoff quilted jumbo Love bag in cobalt | awayfromblue


NecklaceZuriCollections blue polymer clay necklace
Tee: Spectrum basic v-neck tee in washed lilac
Jeans: Portmans pink leopard print skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
BagRebecca Minkoff quilted jumbo Love bag in cobalt


Why I wore it:

This was a busy day! After the school run the little one and I stopped off at the playground for a run around, then it was on to the library. We were about to head home before they said they had a babies books and rhymes session and asked if we and another family wanted to join, and they would make it more of a toddler session. It's something I used to do a lot with the kids when they were younger, so we stayed a little longer for it. I was happy I remembered some of the nursery rhymes to sing along to, ha! I think the little one liked it too, lots of giggles. After that it was home for lunch, a quick appointment then the school pick up and sports in the evening.

I loved the blue, purple and pink in this outfit. I don't wear these leopard print jeans as much as I used to but they do tend to make an appearance or two every spring, they are really fun! I was so sure I'd worn this purple tee with them before but was surprised to look through my blog archives and see that I hadn't. Pink, blue and purple is a trio I love so the cobalt Rebecca Minkoff jumbo love bag was a great accessory with the colourful outfit.

Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
BagRebecca Minkoff quilted jumbo Love bag in cobalt


Why I wore it:

Another bright outfit! I feel this orange tee always photographs a bit more neon than it really is - it doesn't seem as in-your-face in person! It was the perfect tee to wear to go along to another sports event at school and surprise my son. With the printed jeans and orange tee he had no trouble spotting me on the sidelines! I picked the jumbo Love bag to wear again as I needed a bag to fit both my essentials and my camera to take pics of him having fun on the day.

The one thing I did change about this outfit was adding a cardigan. It was a little breezy when I went out to take pics and hadn't settled down when I left so I grabbed a cardigan before I went out the door, and so didn't add sunscreen to my arms. Quickly realised that standing in the shade free sidelines a cardigan wasn't needed though, and sadly paid the price with some sunburnt arms! That explains the slight pinkness in the outfit above, which I wore the day after.

I had time for a quick little shop to pick up some Christmas presents and lunch before picking up my little one early and taking him to a special doctor's appointment. He'd been on the waitlist for a while and the appointment kept getting rescheduled with lockdowns and unavailable doctors and things so when they had a cancellation I took it! Such good timing for us as I'd taken the day off to watch my son compete and wouldn't have been able to take it otherwise.


Last worn: mango tee, tassel necklace, chevron print skinny jeans, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff jumbo Love bag (above).

How You Can Wear It:
Printed jeans are a fun choice over traditional blue denim, and they are easy to wear with a plain v-neck tee. You can try wearing a bright tee to add even more colour to your outfit.

Colourful Knits and Printed Jeans With Converse & Rebecca Minkoff Bags

Two colourful knits and printed skinny jeans outfits, with some very different thoughts on each outfit! While both outfits features pieces I love but rarely wear, I'll be putting one piece back into storage for the time being!

What I wore:

cobalt knit and pink neon leopard print jeans with converse and purple bag mum style | awayfromblue

pink leopard print jeans with Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote in plum | awayfromtheblue

awayfromblue Instagram | colourful winter mum style pink leopard print jeans cobalt knit purple plum rebecca minkoff mini mab tote bag
Necklace: Kmart pink multi-colour beaded necklace
Knit: thrifted Valleygirl blue knit jumper
Pants: Portmans pink leopard print skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote in plum (on sale!)

Why I wore it:

I really like wearing these pink leopard print pants with blue, so on a colder winter day I thought this blue knit would be a great piece to wear with them. I'm surprised I haven't worn the combination before actually! It was a nice outfit for a warmer winter day - although it was a bit chilly in the shade, this light cobalt knit was all that was needed in the sun.

I did worry my outfit was maybe a little overdressed for a morning running errands and visiting the playground, as these pants can feel a bit loud, being neon leopard print! But they are so fun to wear and I enjoyed wearing them, they were definitely overdue a wear!

The pink beaded necklace matches the leopard print so nicely, and the white Converse continue on the white in the background of the pants. For something a little less matchy-matchy I picked my Rebecca Minkoff purple mini MAB tote bag to wear. I like purple with both blue and pink, it makes a lovely trio worn all together.

KnitWildfox Couture rainbow dreamer Lennon distressed knit
JeansSass & Bide Playman skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
BagRebecca Minkoff red micro Avery cross body bag

Why I wore it:

Unlike the outfit above, I didn't enjoy wearing this as much! I love the chevron printed jeans with the Converse, that's an outfit I've worn lots before, and the red Rebecca Minkoff micro Avery tote bag was a great pop of colour. It also matched the red on the rainbow knit nicely.

This Wildfox distressed knit is one I got from my friend's wardrobe clearout. It's so soft and special to me as it came from her. However it is a little tricky to wear around toddlers. I've tried it a couple of times over the years, and just like another time I wore it, I've rolled the sleeves up a bit to hide some of the distressing and make it less tempting for toddlers to pull on. But pull on it they did! It's already distressed so it's not like they were making new holes in it, but it's not designed for curious kids to try sticking their arm through the holes 😂

After wrestling them off my jumper I decided to still wear it out anyway for the morning - surely once distracted by the park the boys would give up playing with the cosy jumper. But by lunchtime it turned into one of those freak winter heatwave days and I was melting in my cosy outfit. It was easy for the boys to shed some of the layers I'd put them in that morning, me not so much. Thankfully we made it home without dying of heatstroke!

I promptly resolved to put this knit back in the winter box, to try getting it out again next year when the boys are a little bigger. Hopefully they will like it just as much then as they do now ("I like your jumper Mummy, it makes me smile"), but be a little less grabby with it!

Printed Jeans Under $50:




How You Can Wear It:

Jeans are a winter wardrobe staple, especially when paired with cosy knits. For something different, try a pair of printed denim instead. You can use the print to add more colour to your outfit, like I have in the first outfit, or just add more detail to an outfit like in the second outfit.

Skinny Jeans, Prints and Cosy Cardigans with Magenta Balenciaga Day Bag

I've really been enjoying my magenta Balenciaga day bag lately! While I'm not afraid to wear it with other colours, I love the way it looks with grey. Skinny jeans, grey tees and a bright bag with some cosy cardigans makes an easy SAHM outfit formula for winter.

What I wore:

Balenciaga Day bag in 2005 magenta  | AwayFromTheBlue
JacketJeanswest Alice longline Australian wool cardigan (Get an extra 30% off everything at Jeanswest!)

TeeAtmos&Here grey v-neck tee with rolled sleeves (similar in black or white)
JeansSass & Bide Playman skinny jeans
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs black logo plaque ballet flats
BagBalenciaga Day bag in 2005 magenta

Why I wore it:

Wore this for daycare drop off / pick up and to run a few errands. I was lucky to bump into my friend on her way to the library for the rhyme session. While we are still a little under the weather I have been avoiding being near other kids so we didn't go to the session, just walked the rest of the way to the library together. It was so good catching up, however briefly. The hardest thing about spending most of August sick was that I couldn't see my mum friends as I didn't want my kids making their kids sick!

It's been almost a year since I last wore this scarf. I was hunting for it at the start of winter, but when I couldn't find it I figured I'd just consigned it when I sold a bunch of my scarves a while ago. It was only when I was digging around in my wardrobe for another scarf I came across this one! It had fallen off the scarf hanger I use and was laying on the floor in the corner of the wardrobe. I'm pleased I found it, and that I didn't get rid of it, as the magenta colour is such a great match for my Balenciaga day bag. Does make me realise I have too many scarves though if I can't remember what ones I still have in my wardrobe....


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarer, roses print skull scarf, grey wool cardigan, grey tee, printed skinny jeans, black ballet flats, magenta Balenciaga day bag.

Other ways to wearskull scarf and polka dots, long cardigan and a maxi skirt, grey tee for travelling, two ways to wear printed skinny jeans, black ballet flats and flared jeans, magenta Balenciaga day bag and pencil skirt.

TopAtmos&Here Nile wrap front jersey tee (new purchase)
JeansJeanswest prima denim super skinny jeans in absolute black
ShoesAsos Cleo leather boots in tan
BagBalenciaga Day bag in 2005 magenta

Why I wore it:

This is another little-worn scarf! Been over a year since this was last worn. It's amazing the things you find when you go hunting through your wardrobe. I really need to own less so that I don't randomly uncover things I've forgotten about now and then.

Simple outfit for a simple day. Had to run to the post office in the morning, had a doctor's appointment to check on baby's condition (that confirmed I'd done the right thing when I skipped taking him to the library session the day before) and spent time with my mother in law in the evening. I like the combination of this leopard print scarf with the tan boots.


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarer (above), black cardigan, leopard print scarf, black skinny jeans, tan boots, Balenciaga magenta day bag (above). First time I've worn the top as it is a recent purchase.

Other ways to wearblack cardigan and a printed maxi skirt, leopard print scarf and ruffled blouse, black skinny jeans and a graphic tee, tan boots and a printed dress, Balenciaga magenta day bag and wrap dresses.

Embroidered Tops, Black Jeans and Rebecca Minkoff Bags

I'm pleased that the embroidery trend is continuing! Gives me more justification to wear these lovely embroidered pieces from my wardrobe. I'll still wear them when the trend dies down, but it's nice to be able to wear something I'm constantly reading about in blogs. An embroidered top and black skinny jeans is an easy stay at home mum outfit, but to add extra interest to each outfit I have wore additional prints and texture too.

What I wore:

embroidered khaki tank with black skinny jeans boucle embellished jacket spring outfit | Away From Blue

Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan satchel in Harvest Gold | Away From The Blue

awayfromblue instagram boucle blazer black skinny jeans khaki embroidered tank
Top: Target embroidered khaki tank
JeansNobody Denim Siren skinny super high-rise jeans in power black denim (C/O, on sale!)
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs black logo plaque ballet flats
BagRebecca Minkoff micro Regan satchel in Harvest Gold

Why I wore it:

Hadn't worn this jacket for a while so it was nice to get it out again! I wasn't sure if the embellishment paired with the embroidery on the top would be too much, but I quite liked the resulting outfit. It was a nice change from last time I wore this embroidered top with black jeans too. Now that it's spring and warmer weather, I can hopefully wear this jacket more. It's a bit thin for winter.

I like how this jacket dresses up a casual outfit a bit - even if I was just popping out for a little shopping while hubby watched the boys.


Last worn: boucle jacket, embroidered tank, Nobody Denim skinny jeans, black ballet flats, Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan bag

JeansSass & Bide Playman skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote in plum (on sale in pink, 43% off!)

Why I wore it:

I've tried to wear other prints with these chevron printed Sass & Bide jeans in the past and not been entirely happy with the results. Just like the first outfit, I decided to try something different by pairing the chevrons with the detail on this embroidered top. I liked the result, but not enough to want to wear it again, haha! Will stick with wearing plain black jeans with this embroidered top next time.

Even though the embroidery and print together was busy enough, I added a little extra texture with the cardigan. I love the purple accessories with this - the cardigan is so cosy and wearing the cardigan and plum mini MAB tote bag together is a favourite combination of mine. Kept me warm on a very windy day.

The plan was to go to the in-laws for dinner, but after baby boy wasn't his usual happy self when we went out in the morning, we decided to stay home at night and let him rest and feel better. It's been such a tough winter with illnesses, I'm glad it's spring now as I'm hoping the warm weather and sunshine keeps the bugs at bay.

Black Printed and Plain Jeans Under $50:







How You Can Wear It:


Black jeans are a great base for any outfit! The are the perfect backdrop to let an embroidered top or jacket shine. You can mix things up a little by buying black jeans with a print on them if you feel plain black is too boring.

Skinny Jeans, Printed Scarves and Cardigans with Rebecca Minkoff Red Saddle Bag

More adventures out with my friend who was visiting Brisbane. I've mentioned before I try to get out as often as I can with the two boys, but with my friend here we've been doing a more than our usual routine of library and playgroup visits. I've been reaching for jeans a lot to keep things simple, and Converse for all the walking.

What I wore:

Brestfeeding friendly zoo outfit: bird print scarf, elephant teething necklace skinnies cardi | AwayFromBlue

Rebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag in cherry red | AwayFromTheBlue
SunniesRay-Ban new Wayfarers
Jacket: Paper Scissors grey wrap cardigan
Scarf: navy bird print scarf
Necklace: Ruby Olive Softies Ava elephant pendant teething necklace
TankMEV Britney bubble tank in mood indigo C/O Zibibo
JeansJeanswest Super Skinny Jeans in Mid Indigo
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white (on sale and on sale in metallic!)
BagRebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag in cherry red (on sale and on sale in brown!)

Why I wore it:

Wore this for a trip to Australia zoo. While it was quite warm and I took my cardigan off for most of the day, I was thankful I'd brought the scarf as it's a great breastfeeding coverup. Plus the bird print is perfect for a day at the zoo. Didn't attract the local birds like I did last time I wore it though!

The elephant necklace was a last minute addition but again was a fun animal themed piece to wear to the zoo. I have a few teething necklaces from when toddler T was a baby, this one is a new one I got in a babyology subscription box. Baby boy has started grabbing and tugging on my hair hard so the necklace was a little bit of a distraction for him. Came in handy on the long car ride home when we got stuck in traffic with a cranky baby too, one of my friends tied it to the baby capsule like a little mobile to calm him down.


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarer, grey cardi, bird print scarf, breastfeeding tank, skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag.

Other ways to weargrey cardi and a maxi skirt, bird print scarf and stripes, breastfeeding tank and maxi skirt, skinny jeans and a floral kimono, Converse and flares, two different ways to wear a saddle bag.

JeansSass & Bide Playman skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black (on sale and on sale in grey)
BagRebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag in cherry red (on sale and on sale in blue!)

Why I wore it:

It was a slightly cooler day so I was glad I'd worn a thicker cardigan. While I took the scarf off and on as I was babywearing with the Ergo carrier, the cardigan stayed on all day as we went into the city for brunch. It's getting more fun to eat out with toddler T as he's getting to the age where we can order a little meal for him to, and he definitely enjoyed his little serving.

I've mentioned before that I wasn't too sure about what kind of printed scarves I could wear with these jeans, but I find skull scarves seem to go with everything and I don't worry about wearing them with other prints. It was nice to have a little more red in my outfit too.


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarer (above), black cardigan, red skull scarf, grey tee, printed skinny jeans, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag (above).

Grey and Pink: Tees and Printed Jeans

Another grey tee post! In the final month of #6monthsWithoutShopping, I'm often feeling uninspired and picking something to wear and create outfits from like my grey tees or graphic tees is a good way for me to come up with outfits. Grey and pink is a colour combination I like to wear often, and both these outfits with my printed jeans show that nicely.

What I wore:

Sass & Bide playman printed jeans grey tee pink drape vest | AwayFromBlue

Roie Designs waxed leather cream howlite beaded wrap bracelet, Rebecca Minkoff metallic mini MAC | AwayFromTheBlue
Necklace: Nibbly Bits Abacus teething necklace in pop
Tee: Spectrum basic v-neck tee in grey marl
JeansSass & Bide Playman skinny jeans
ShoesWalnut Melbourne 'Ava' black lizard ballet flats (also available in silver)
Bracelets: the usual plus Roie Designs waxed leather cream howlite beaded wrap bracelet
BagRebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC (on sale, 20% off!)

Why I wore it:

Starting to get a little too chilly now for short sleeves - winter weather has arrived in Brisbane. It was a milder day when I wore this though and I didn't need any extra layers. Had a busy morning with baby boy's weekly weigh and a doctors appointment and then spent some time with my mum and sister in the afternoon.

While I have tried wearing other prints with these fun Sass & Bide printed jeans, my favourite way to wear them is with plain basics like this grey tee. The monochrome outfit felt a little dull until I added the pink vest for a bit of colour, along with the bright teething necklace.

These chevron print jeans were perfect to meet Shea's Live Your Best Life for Less style challenge prompt of 'printed bottoms' too.


Last worn: pink vest, grey v-neck tee, chevron print jeans, black ballet flats, Rebecca Minkoff silver mini MAC bag.

Other ways to wearpink vest worn two ways, grey v-neck tee and red kimono, chevron print jeans worn 2 ways, black ballet flats and pleated skirt, Rebecca Minkoff silver mini MAC and maxi skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: grey tee and maternity pencil skirt, black ballet flats and maternity wrap dress, mini MAC and maternity dress.

What I wore:

Necklace: Nibbly Bits Abacus teething necklace in pop
TeeAtmos&Here grey Arizona zip tee
Jeans: Portmans pink leopard print skinny jeans
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs metallic mouse flats (on sale in black!)
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote in plum (on sale in pink!)

Why I wore it:

Wore this to go to my local ABA mother's group. As it was a little cooler and raining on this day, I wanted something long sleeved so had a rummage through my box of winter things. This grey tee is one I've pulled back from the donate pile before. It's got zips on either side of the hem (that you can kind of see in the second photo) but I still worried it was a little dull for winter. I'm glad I kept it around as it pairs well with other brighter colours to make winter layering easy!

The pink leopard print jeans are always fun to wear, and met Shea's Live Your Best Life for Less style challenge of 'leopard spring brights' with just one item. Even though it's winter here in Australia, I've had fun with the prompts as I can usually find something that matches to wear in the cold. It's no secret I like pink and purple together, so the purple bag seemed like a good choice, especially when worn with the teething necklace.

More Grey Tees Under $50:









How You Can Wear It:



A grey tee is a great wardrobe basic, but your outfits don't have to be basic when you wear it! Try adding more interest with a pair of printed pants, or a scarf. A grey tee is a great pairing with a statement printed piece like leopard print. You can also add another layer, like the pink vest, for a little colour pop against the grey tee.
