What I wore:
Scarf: thrifted checked purple pashmina scarf
Tee: thrifted Mix Apparel black marle tee
Jeans: Nobody Denim Cult high rise skinny ankle jeans in charred grey
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe Marcie medium shoulder bag in nut
Why I wore it:
This was a bit of a dark outfit, but I picked everything deliberately to let the scarf be the pop of colour! I didn't really need the scarf during the day, I was just working from home, but I knew I'd appreciate the cosy pashmina in the evening when I went to a presentation by Justin Coulson (a parenting expert in Australia). It was nice to catch up with my friends kid-free although it was a little chilly so I was very glad I'd worn the scarf, with all the doors and windows open in the hall.Wasn't sure if the space dye tee was too patterned to wear with the checked scarf, but gave it a go anyway as I thought it was a bit more interesting than just a plain black tee. I loved the tonal grey and black outfit with the purple scarf, and the Chloe Marcie bag was big enough for all my essentials, a bottle of water, and the parenting books I bought from Justin after his talk!

Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual

Why I wore it:
My boss had a laugh at me all rugged up in this outfit when we had a video call. She's in another state and a much colder state so needing all the layers for 20 degree (Celsius) weather seemed a little overkill to her, ha! It was the first really cold weather in Brisbane for autumn though so I just wanted to be cosy!Like the outfit above, I wasn't sure if the space dye tee would work with the grid print on the scarf but I liked the combination, I think it went well with the space dye effect. With the blush blazer and the black jeans and brown Chloe Marcie bag though, this is a very different outfit from the one above, where it was much more tonal and monochrome except the scarf and bag. I did like it, pink and blue are always a winner and although this blazer is a lighter one it was just what I needed for the school run in the morning and afternoon with the scarf.

How You Can Wear It:
Blazers aren't just for the office! They can look great worn casually with jeans too, and a colourful scarf is always a good accessory.
