Pink Kmart Dresses In The Office With Blue Mini MAC Bag

Two very similar outfits I wore to work recently, both with Kmart fuchsia pink dresses and my little blue Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag.


What I wore:




Necklace: navy and silver circle pendant tassel necklace
Dress: Kmart short sleeve tiered jersey dress in Fuchsia
ShoesAdidas Superstar sneakers
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff 2012 sky grey mini MAC bag


Why I wore it:

Surprisingly, despite loving blue and pink together, I haven't worn this sky blue Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag with this fuchsia pink tiered midi dress before. It seems like such an obvious combo! It was good to give it a wear, and to wear something bright for another day in the office.

Added some comfortable Adidas Superstar sneakers too, which were a very practical choice as it ended up being a pretty rainy day. Thankfully the big work issued bag I have for my work laptop has plenty space for an umbrella.


Last worn: Kmart tiered midi dress, navy tassel necklace, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag.

What I wore:




Necklace: Gold beaded statement multi strand necklace
Dressthrifted Kmart short sleeve godet skirt linen blend dress in fuchsia
Belt: came with dress
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff 2012 sky grey mini MAC bag


Why I wore it:

Since I liked the combination of the fuchsia pink dress with the little bluey-grey Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC bag in the outfit above, I repeated it again a few days later! 

This Kmart linen blend dress was an opshop find and I really like it with blue. Even though the blue Converse sneakers aren't the same shade as the little mini MAC bag I liked the two blues together, and I've worn these Converse with this dress many times before. Added the gold beaded statement necklace to dress it up a little more for the office. Just like the two different blues, I think the two different golds in the necklace and on the hardware and strap of the bag still work together, despite being different.

This dress is one that makes me smile even if I am just wearing it into the office!

Orange Tiered Dresses and Grey MAM Bag For Kids Birthday Parties

A birthday party filled weekend recently had me sticking to a very simple outfit formula. Tiered orange dresses, my tan slides, and my little grey Rebecca Minkoff MAM. I love how a dress is an easy instant outfit.


What I wore:



Necklace: thrifted multi strand multi colour disc bead necklace with tassels
DressJeanswest Lilah tiered linen dress in orange
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual plus vintage silver charm bracelet
BagRebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey


Why I wore it:

A thankfully indoor kids birthday party as it turned into a very rainy day! This orange tiered linen dress was nice and colourful for the occasion, but not too warm in the heat. Despite the rain it was still pretty humid. I added more colour to this orange tiered linen dress with the bright tassel multi strand necklace. I liked the extra colour against the already bright orange dress.

The rest of my outfit was neutral, with the tan slides and the grey Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag which has been on frequent repeat since I got it out of my wardrobe again recently. It's a bag that goes with everything and fits everything so it's hard to swap it out for another bag sometimes!

What I wore:




Necklace: mixed metal hammered pendant necklace
Dress: Kmart short sleeve tiered jersey midi dress in amber 
Shoes: Kmart tan crossover slides
Bracelets: the usual plus thrifted cream resin bangle duo set and Polka Luka resin bangles in yellow and orange
BagRebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey


Why I wore it:

Another orange tiered dress for another kid's birthday party. This one is an older one from my wardrobe, a fun Kmart tiered midi dress I bought back in 2020. This is its 16th wear. With this mixed metal gold and silver necklace I got for Christmas, it was another easy instant outfit for a busy and loud birthday party.

Did add some chunky bracelets to make it look like I put a little effort into this outfit. The cream resin ones are ones I thrifted a while back and they look great with the orange and yellow resin bangles my bestie got me one Christmas.

Again I wore my Rebecca Minkoff grey MAM bag - perfect for water bottles as well as all my essentials. The party was at an indoor play area so the kids definitely needed a lot of water as they ran around with their friends.
