Dresses and ankle boots are one of my favourite outfit combinations, although I've rarely worn it recently as I've been preferring separates for breastfeeding. I do have a few dresses with buttons I can still breastfeed in so it was good to change things up a little and wear one of my favourite outfit formulas.
What I wore:
Jacket: Kmart striped maxi cardigan
Necklace: Ruby Olive Softies Charlotte teething necklaceDress: Jeanswest Rachel Lyocell chambray dress (C/O)
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots (on sale!)
Bag: Balenciaga Day bag in 2005 magenta (20% off with code 'NEW')
Why I wore it:
This was one of those outfits I loved. I really like all the pieces on their own and they work perfectly together. It's basically the summer version of this winter outfit, just without the tights and different accessories. I like wearing this magenta Balenciaga day bag with blue and wear it like that often.Just a quiet day, popped out to get groceries during a break in the rain as it was really stormy. Made the mistake of assuming that we would have time between storms and rain to run errands, get groceries and get home again. Used the umbrella for toddler T and the raincover for baby boy in the stroller which left me unfortunately getting absolutely soaked! A denim dress is not ideal to wear in a downpour so I quickly changed into warm dry clothes when we got home. It's a shame I didn't get to wear this for too long given how much I liked it.
Last worn: striped duster, chambray dress, black ankle books, magenta Balenciaga day bag.
Other ways to wear: striped duster and monochrome outfit, chambray dress and a baby bump, black ankle boots and printed jeans, magenta Balenciaga day bag and a graphic tee.

What I wore:
Sunglasses: Ray-Ban new Wayfarers
Necklace: Nibbly Bits Abacus teething necklace in popDress: Jeanswest Nikki printed shirt dress
Shoes: Asos leather Chelsea boots in tan
Bag: Balenciaga Day bag in 2005 magenta
Why I wore it:
Big contrast to the day above, this was hot and sunny. I actually regretted the choice of ankle boots in the heat of the day! Now it's summer the boots will be packed away.Another simple outfit for a simple day. Took baby boy for his weekly weigh and spent some time with my family in the afternoon. The pink in the print of the dress made this magenta bag the perfect piece to wear with it, even if the heat made me a little uncomfortable.
Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarer, printed shirt dress, Chelsea leather ankle boots, Balenciaga Day bag (above).
Other ways to wear: printed shirt dress in winter, Chelsea leather ankle boots and chambray, magenta Balenciaga day bag and pencil skirt.
