Orange and Animal Print Cami and Maxi Skirt Outfits

I've been wearing a lot of tees lately, so I got a couple of my pretty camis out to change it up a little. Paired both with maxi skirts for these orange and leopard print outfits, accessorised with my Chloe Ethel bag.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted burgundy and cream beaded statement necklace
Cami: New Look orange strappy cami top
Skirt: thrifted ruffle hem leopard print midi skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bracelets: the usual plus wooden beaded bracelet stack
Bag: Chloe small Ethel bag in light khaki

Why I wore it:

This was such a fun day! Went down the coast to spend some time at my parents, and then shopping at Costco with my mum and sister. It was the first time I've been there! We bought a lot, and the kids were delighted by all the different sample stations they got to eat at!

While a leopard print midi skirt seems like it would be a loud statement piece, this skirt never seems too "in-your-face" for me so I had fun pairing it with this bright orange cami and the statement beaded necklace and beaded bracelet stack. I did add some neutrals with the white Converse and the small Chloe Ethel bag, but leopard is pretty much a neutral on its own now!

Really enjoyed this outfit, it was fun shopping and getting lunch with the family.


Last worn: orange cami, beaded statement necklace, wooden bracelet stack, leopard print maxi skirt, white Converse, Chloe Ethel bag.

Other ways to wear: orange cami and jeans, leopard print maxi skirt and red tee, white Converse and shorts, Chloe Ethel bag and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: white Converse in second trimester.

What I wore:

Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings
Necklace: thrifted gold large double circle necklace
Cami: Kmart Anko leopard print cami
Skirt: thrifted Tree of Life ochre maxi skirt
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Chloe small Ethel bag in light khaki

Why I wore it:

I really liked the outfit above, so I flipped it around a little but followed the same outfit formula for this. Animal print cami this time and an orange maxi skirt. I keep calling this a leopard print cami even though it's clearly cheetah print. It was the perfect printed piece with this block colour rust maxi skirt. Again I wore my Chloe Ethel bag - the 'light khaki' colour is a very light one and I treat it as a neutral.

With the gold hardware on the Chloe Ethel bag and the bold combination of animal print and leopard, I kept the rest of my accessories simple with the tan slides and gold necklace and earrings.

Wore this out to an event at the library. I did feel a bit overdressed in this though, and didn't enjoy it as much as I did the first outfit. I think it seemed a little more dressed up than a plain tee and maxi skirt outfit. I did like it, just maybe should have worn it for a different day.

Last worn: gold heart earrings, gold circle necklace, animal print cami, rust maxi skirt, tan slides, Chloe small Ethel bag (above).

Other ways to wear: animal print cami and denim, rust maxi skirt in winter, tan slides and dress, Chloe small Ethel bag and jeans.

Pink Tees and Printed Shorts

Although it's officialy autumn now in Brisbane, I wore these outfits back in summer. It had been a particularly hot summer, so I defaulted to shorts and tee outfits like this a lot! Both of these outfits have printed shorts and pink tees.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted metallic clay bead necklace
Tee: Cle The Label Charlotte tee in ombre rose
Shorts: Jeanswest Parker printed shirred short
Shoes: Sketchers Bountiful navy fabric sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mica Bag - Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB side zip tote in pale lilac hand painted by Sheila

Why I wore it:

I was surprised to see in my blog archives I haven't worn this ombre pink tee and the black printed shorts together before! I really like wearing these cute black printed shorts with pink, and this tee is such a good pairing.

Had a very quiet day with the school run, working from home, and a physio appointment so shorts and a tee (and practical sneakers) was a good choice for the day. I added a bit of matchy-matchy with the navy Sketchers and the navy beads in the necklace. And then added another print against the black printed shorts with the hand illustrated Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag. I really like wearing it with pink!


Last worn: ombre pink tee, statement necklace, black printed shorts, Sketchers, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag.

Other ways to wear: ombre pink tee and blazer, black printed shorts and cardigan, Sketchers and sundress, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAB tote bag and dress.

What I wore:

Necklace: thrifted wood and marble bead thrifted necklace with white string
Tee: Kmart short sleeve cotton modal tee in tulip pink
Shorts: Kmart culotte short in navy lemon print
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue

Why I wore it:

Another shorts and tee outfit for the school run and working from home. Despite a rainy start to the day, it was still a hot and humid one, so I appreciated this slouchy soft pink tee and the loose relaxed culotte shorts. With the different shades of pink in the tee and the print of the shorts, I added the neutral beaded necklace to keep it simple.

Stuck with blue accessories, with the blue Converse and this Luna blue Edie shoulder bag which works so well with pink and with navy.


Last worn: pink modal tee, statement necklace, navy printed culotte shorts, Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag.

Other ways to wear: pink modal tee and jeans, navy printed culotte shorts and knit, Converse and dress, Rebecca Minkoff Edie shoulder bag and skirt.
