Leopard Print, Stripes, Red Jeans, Balenciaga Clutch | Knit, Skinnies, Boots, LV Speedy

Here's what I wore on Saturday:

Scarf: Cotton On animal print scarf in blue
Necklace: gift from DH
Top: Living Doll stripe 3/4 sleeve top
Jeans: Jeanswest Pepper Red super skinny jeans
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga flat clutch GSH in 2010 Sang


Nice casual Saturday outfit. I bought a couple of basics in The Iconic sale last week, this was one of them and I love it. So comfortable and perfect for the weekends. Thought the printed scarf would be nice with the stripes.

Was a lovely day weather-wise so walked to the stores to run errands and took Cooper to the groomers. He needed a trim, his fur was getting much longer and it was drawing more attention to the side of him that was shaved for his op. Now his fur is shorter it's a little harder to notice :)


Last worn: blue leopard print scarf, red jeans, Converse, Balenciaga sang clutch. First time I've worn this tee as it's a recent purchase.

Here's what I wore  today:

Top: Supre knit loose fit jumper in bahamas
Jeans: Jeanswest blue skinny jeans
Shoes: Asos Cleo leather boots in tan
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Vintage Louis Vuitton speedy 25 in monogram canvas


Felt like something was missing from this outfit - maybe a necklace or scarf? Decided just to keep it simple though for a lazy Sunday. DH and I had planned to head to the beach with Cooper but the constant rain in the morning ruined our plans. Went out for lunch instead, and of course I had Church Online in the evening. If you like movies, check it out, we are watching movies all week.

Ombre Knit, Skinny Jeans, Boots, Balenciaga Clutch | Grey Tee, Skull Scarf, Leopard Print Pants, Acne Pistols, MbMJ Karlie Bag

Here's what I wore to spend some time with family on Saturday:

Top: Jeanswest 'Serena' ombre long sleeve knit in 'pavement'
Jeans: Jeanswest 'spoylt' super skinny jeans
Shoes: Asos Cleo leather boots in black
Bracelets: the usual plus Oscar's Law bracelet and gifted Balenciaga classic pearly grey double tour bracelet
Bag: Balenciaga flat clutch GSH in 2010 Sang


Very similar accessories to the last time I wore this lovely jumper, sorry for the repetition! I think red pairs so nicely with the grey. Casual but warm outfit for spending the evening with the in-laws, having dinner and watching a movie. It was quite chilly so even Cooper has his knitted hoodie on! He had been shivering during the day as quite a bit of him was shaved after his operation. We've been putting his little shirts on when he looks cold.


Last worn: ombre knit, skinny jeans, Balenciaga sang clutch, black boots.

Shoes: Acne pistol boots in "skin"
Bracelets: the usual

Relaxing, rainy Sunday and working at Church Online in the evening. Went out for a while when the rain stopped in the morning, but it had set in by the afternoon. Didn't need to carry much today, so wore my Marc by Marc Jacobs Karlie bag as a clutch. This grey Asos tee is perfect comfy weekend wear!

Coloured Denim: Pink Leopard Print and Chloe Ethel | Purple and Vintage Chanel Bag

Here's what I wore to go to the office on Saturday:

Top: band tee from KissChasy "Bones and skin" tour
Belt: gifted Portmans pink leopard print skinny jeans
Shoes: gifted black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus enamel coated Marc By Marc Jacobs Katie bracelet in pink
Bag: Chloe Ethel leather satchel in sweet pink

It was a long day, and dark and rainy when I went to take photos, so another indoor shot. Yes, what I wore to the office on the weekend :( We had to come into the office to get more work done on a project. It felt very wrong going into work on a Saturday! Wore these pink jeans and pink accessories to add some cheerfulness to my look. I've always thought the pink leopard print was too loud for the office, but on a day without a dress code they were perfect. The thongs weren't an issue either - there were a few people running around barefoot for maximum comfort!


Last worn: kisschasy tee, pink leopard print jeans, thongs, Chloe Ethel bag.

Here's what I wore to go to a birthday lunch and work at Church Online today:

Top: Just Jeans black lace detail tank
Jeans: Jeanswest blackberry super skinny jeans (New Purchase)
Shoes: New Look black bow detail peep toe heels
Bracelets: the usual plus old multi-coloured bangle set, Indigo Rose Design black leather Swarovski beaded wrap bracelet
Bag: Chanel vintage quilted lambskin flap from Reebonz

Bought these awesome purple skinnies when I went late night shopping after work with my mum and sister. I'd seen them in store and online a few times, but wasn't sure if I could justify another pair of jeans. When we saw them in store this week, they were only $30 so I finally caved and bought them. Such a nice purple, I'm so glad I got them! Dressed up a little with heels as I knew I wouldn't have to do much walking today.


Last worn: lace detail tank, vintage Chanel flap. First wearing of the jeans, and first time I've worn the heels on the blog.

Colour Block Top, Plaid Pencil Skirt, Alexander Wang Rocco | Blue Leopard Print Scarf, Skinny Jeans, Mulberry Alexa Bag

Here's what I wore to work on Thursday:

Top: Cotton On Finland Spliced top in hommus / black / washed orange
Skirt: French Connection plaid pencil skirt
Shoes: Nine West black flats that usually live under my desk in the office
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Alexander Wang Rocco with gold hardware in dark argon from Reebonz

Not too sure about this outfit - maybe a necklace would have looked great with the top? It's definitely missing something. Swapped the pencil skirt out for a pair of skinny jeans when I went out shopping in the evening and felt much more comfortable  Although I wore thongs to and from the office I wore these flats when I was at work, they stay under my desk for when I need a nice pair of flat black shoes. Managed to take this photo when I popped out the office for a bit of fresh air.


Last worn: colour block top, pencil skirt, Alexander Wang Rocco.

Here's what I wore to work for casual Friday today:

Scarf: Cotton On animal print scarf in blue (New purchase)
Top: Supre white gathered top
Jeans: Jeanswest Super Skinny Jeans in Mid Indigo
Shoes: Nine West fascinate ballet flats in silver glitter
Bracelets: the usual plus Indigo Rose Design waxed leather cream howlite beaded wrap bracelet
Bag: Mulberry regular size Alexa bag in foggy grey from Reebonz sale

The rain wasn't going away by the time I got home in the evening, so had to take indoor photos. Just like when I started the blog! Only now the clothes rack is so weighed down it looks like it's falling on one side...and my shoe collection has expanded...haha. My push to get rid of most of my heels and replace all of my thongs with sandals and cute flats has meant I've run out of spaces for shoes.
Starting to think I should get up earlier in the morning and get photos then, as it's difficult to get good lighting at the end of the day. Really liked this outfit, just not the photos.

Tried to get a shot of my nails in the detail picture - got a free Ciate statement nail mani at lunch time. First time I've tried caviar polish, so I'm interested to see how it lasts! It's 'lemon fizz' I'm wearing, there is a better pic on instagram here.


Last worn: top, skinny jeans, shoes, Mulberry Alexa bag.

Shoes: gifted Havaianas tropical print thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus two beaded Sportsgirl Butterfly Foundation bracelets

Here's what I wore to go shopping today, have my sister over and work at Church Online in the evening:

Scarf: no brand grey knitted scarf
Dress: JayJays feather print maxi dress
Shoes: Rebecca Minkoff 'Beach Babe' strappy sandals in electric pink
Bracelets: the usual plus gifted purple Salvatore Ferragamo 'Vara' leather bow bracelet
Bag: Balenciaga RH city in 2008 sapphire

A few showers on an otherwise sunny day, so added a scarf to keep warm. However the open toed sandals and a maxi dress were probably not the best ideas - the dress quickly got wet and weighed down with the rain, ended up having to change when I got home. Should just keep this maxi dress for dry days!


Last worn: feather print maxi dress, pink sandals, Balenciaga sapphire city. First time I've worn the scarf.

Sheer Top, Burgundy Peplum Skirt, Chloe Marcie Bag | Asos Red Leopard Print Dress, Tan Accessories, Marc By Marc Jacobs Fran

Here's what I wore to work on Wednesday:

Sunnies: gifted Cotton On 'Kirsten sunnie' in yellow
Necklace: House of Harlow gold mini key pendant necklace
Bracelets: the usual plus studded and chain link Oroton leather bracelets from Designer Archives
Top: Jeanswest sheer white oversized blouse (with white Supre singlet underneath)
Skirt: Cotton On Berney skirt in zinfandel
Shoes: Wittner 'Jasmarie' studded sandals
Bag: Chloe Marcie medium hobo bag in Nut

Tried this outfit together the night before and quite liked it - but really felt uncomfortable in it when I wore it, it just didn't seem to sit right. Won't pair these two pieces together again, I think the oversized top and the peplum were too much together. What do you think?


Last worn: yellow sunnies, sheer top, peplum skirt, studded sandals, Chloe Marcie hobo.

Here's what I wore to work today:

Sunnies: gifted Cotton On 'Kirsten sunnie' in yellow

Belt: gifted Cotton On tan waist belt
Shoes: Wittner 'Columbia' cross strap sandals in tan
Bag: Marc By Marc Jacobs Classic Q Fran bag with gold hardware in carob brown from Reebonz

Thought about wearing my oak Mulberry Baywsater with this but thought it added up to a bit too much tan, so swapped it out for my Fran bag instead. This dress has been sitting in my wardrobe for almost a year unworn as I keep thinking there will be a better event to wear it to. So I decided just to wear it today to work, as it is one of my favourites that hardly gets worn.

Looking forward to having a relaxing 4 day weekend!

More pink accessories! I just wanted to carry my magenta work today, so a simple black and grey outfit with another pink leopard scarf too :) Nice comfortable outfit for casual Friday.

There was a bit of a stir at lunch time today - we were all kept inside the office as there was a gunman in Queen street in the Brisbane CBD. It was pretty scary at first, but the police handled it so well and kept everybody safe. We spent most of our lunch huddled round a few screens watching the news streams trying to find out more information. Very relived to see it end safely.

I spent a little bit of time this weekend trying to figure out how to organise my wardrobe better. One of the things I noticed is that I have an entire clothes rack of dresses that only get worn in warmer weather. With the rainy cool day on Sunday I took the chance to try wear my maxi dress. I really liked it with the scarf and boots, what do you think?

My sister had a cleanout of her wardrobe recently - which is what inspired me to start organising my own! I inherited some new clothes from her, one of them was this really comfortable tee. Nice and casual outfit for working from home. :) I did iron these pieces, but after sitting at the computer all day it doesn't look like it, haha.

Jeans: Kmart grey leopard print cropped skinny jeans

Unfortunately after breakfast this morning, the rain set in and ruined my plans to take tripod photos. So DH took these pictures after we picked Cooper up from the groomers in the afternoon, using the awning from the stores for protection from the rain.

The groomer gave Cooper a cute little purple bow in his hair after his haircut, matched quite nicely with my purple outfit!

Today was a cooler day with all the rain so I dressed for warmth and comfort as we went shopping to find DH a new pair of shoes. Of course while we were shoe shopping I popped into a few other stores ;) Only bought one item - a cute polka dot skirt - which I'm looking forward to wearing to work soon. :)

One of the things DH got me for Christmas was a "IOU" for a new computer chair, so today we went out to Ikea to get one. My old one broke so I've been needing a new one for a while. Have to say, this one is much more comfortable to sit on than my old one - even before it broke!

Of course while we were in Ikea we managed to buy lots more as well as the chair. It happens every time we go there, we walk in and see something pretty and/or practical and have to get it as well! haha! Hope we aren't the only ones that do that.
