What I wore:
Necklace: blush pink and gold beaded tassel necklace
Tee: Atmos & Here black essential v-neck tee
Dress: Kmart Tropicana sleeveless tiered maxi dress (worn 30 times)
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
Bag: Chloe periwinkle small Paraty
Why I wore it:
This maxi dress is such a staple - and this was it's 30th wear! I was so happy to be able to put together a 30 ways to wear post with it, it's a dress I really enjoy wearing. Nice and colourful outfit for spending the day out with the kids - it looked like it would be a cooler day so I added the black tee on top but it quickly warmed up and I had to hunt out some shade to sit in as the kids played in the playground. Luckily the library we headed to afterwards had aircon!The black Converse matched the black tee nicely, but I felt it dressed down the outfit a little so I added the pretty gold statement earrings to stop it looking too casual. The blush necklace I was surprised to see that I haven't worn with this dress before as it compliments the colours in the print so nicely!
And of course the periwinkle blue of the Chloe small Paraty bag works so well with the blues in the floral print. Just big enough for some snacks and all our water bottles too.

How To Remove Chloe Paraty Strap (And a Little Hack!)
What I wore:
Necklace: Kmart rose gold and pink beaded necklace
Tee: Spectrum basic v-neck tee in washed lilacDress: JayJays feather print maxi dress
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
Bag: Chloe periwinkle small Paraty
Why I wore it:
This outfit just duplicates the first one really. Again I knotted a v-neck tee over a printed maxi skirt, and added black Converse, a blush and gold necklace, and the periwinkle chloe Paraty! I do like repeating an outfit formula if I enjoyed wearing it previously.With the lilac tee and the darker feather print of the maxi dress this is a very different colour combo from the first outfit, but that same comfortable formula. I wore it for another day with the playground and the library too even! Not quite as fun as the day above though we also had some errands to run which did not go smoothly. And then because 2 of our routes home were blocked we had to take the long way around, turning a 5 minutes trip into 45 minutes with the traffic. One of those days!
I did however really like the purple and periwinkle combo - I'll need to wear this Paraty bag with purple again in the future!

How You Can Wear It:
A knotted tee over a maxi dress is a great option! It can add a little sun coverage on a day at the playground, or warmth on a cooler autumn day. You can pick a tee that pulls some colour out of the print of the dress, or contrast it entirely. A a neutral like a black tee always works!
