It was a little chilly near the end of the day so I wore a purple cardi over my jeans and tee outfit. Of course it covers up the print on the tee, haha. It says "a shelter dog changed my life...". Had a really nice evening catching up with friends and playing poker. Cooper even 'played'.

Here's what I wore to spent time with my mum and sister and work at Church Online today:

Dress: gifted Rivers Aztec print dress
Belt: no label skinny gold belt
Leggings: Cotton On
Shoes: Asos metallic Freestyle leather sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus two metal and fabric Indigo Rose Design bracelets
Bag: Balenciaga envelope clutch in 2012 mangue with giant 12 RGGH


Had a really nice day today - went to church with the family (where my sister kindly took a blog photo) and then had lunch and a day out with my mum and sister. Came home to work at Church Online in the evening. Had planned to wear jeans but my sister convinced me otherwise, and we both ended up wearing a dress and leggings. Was quite warm in the sun after church, so I was glad I'd chosen the dress!


Last worn: printed dress, leggings, shoes, Balenciaga envelope clutch.

Leather Jackets: French Connection Shift Dress, Ankle Boots, Balenciaga Work | Grey Tank, Jeans, Studded Flats, Mulberry Alexa

Here's what I wore to work on Thursday:

Jacket: Asos Black by Markus Lupfer printed leather jacket
Dress: French Connection 'Kay' houndstooth shift dress
Shoes: Asos Aggie leather western ankle boots in black
Bracelets: the usual plus studded and chain link Oroton leather bracelets
Bag: Balenciaga classic work in 2006 Rouille


Pretty much wearing the exact same outfit as the last time I wore this dress, only with a leather jacket this time. It just works so well with boots and a Balenciaga, haha. A nice easy outfit so you can see why I've repeated it. The photos don't show the detail the best, so as requested on my last post, I took a close up of the print on the jacket on instagram.


Last worn: printed leather jacket, French Connection dress, Asos ankle boots, Balenciaga rouille work.

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

Jacket: Wittner Santa Fe cobalt blue leather jacket (New purchase)
Top: Cotton On 'eternity' tank in charcoal marle
Jeans: Sass and Bide strayed misfits skinny jeans
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs studded mouse flats in grey
Bracelets: the usual plus Lovisa 'Collette by Collette Dinnigan' twisted bow charm and heart charm silver bracelets and Edenborough Evans 'Ivy' silver cuff
Bag: Mulberry regular size Alexa bag in foggy grey


Only found out that Wittner made leather jackets when this beautiful blue was one posted on their instagram a while ago. I kept thinking about it and eventually ordered it, along with the leather jacket from Asos above. I usually have a difficult time finding nice leather jackets so I thought if I get two, I might get lucky with one of them and could return the one that didn't work. Of course I kept them both. The colour and leather on this jacket are amazing. Bags are my go-to splurge items, but I made an exception in this case. I'm so pleased with it! :)

Unfortunately, today we had a really important meeting this afternoon, I had forgotten about. Since we were asked to dress more formally than the usual casual Friday wear, my friend and I popped out at lunchtime to shop so I could get a jumper to cover up my bare shoulders with! :)


Last worn: grey marle tank, Sass and Bide jeans, studded shoes, Mulberry Alexa. It's the first time I've worn the jacket as it's a new purchase.

Black: Blazer, Printed Tank, Pink Shoes, Bayswater | Leather Jacket, Grey Pencil Skirt, Heels, Balenciaga Velo

Here's what I wore to work on Tuesday:

Jacket: No label black single button blazer
Necklace: House of Harlow sunburst necklace in silver and grey
Dress: Glassons 'Cassie' printed tank
Skirt: Jeanswest black ponte pencil skirt
Shoes: gifted Novo Carmina fuschia suede flats
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Mulberry Bayswater in Oak NVT leather


Haha to be honest I was too cold to smile properly for the photos! Was warm in the office in my long sleeve top on Monday so wore a tank instead. But it made it really cold taking photos with just a blazer over the top.

The tank print has some pink in it, so I thought I'd wear a pink bag and shoes to match, then worried that may be too much pink and decided to carry the bayswater instead. In the photo you can't see the pink in the tank though, so probably could have worn a pink bag too.


Last worn: Black blazer, Jeanswest pencil skirt, pink flats, Mulberry Bayswater. First time I've worn the top as it is a recent purchase.

Here's what I wore to work today:

Jacket: Asos Black by Markus Lupfer printed leather jacket (New purchase)
Top: Target ruffle sleeve dog print blouse
Skirt: Asos tailored tab front pencil skirt in grey
Shoes: Wittner 'Bloomy' black heels
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga Coquelicot Velo (2011 RH)

This is one of the two new leather jackets I bought to keep me warm in this suddenly cold weather. I really like the print as it makes it different from my plain black leather jacket, and it being reduced from $335 made it even more tempting! Felt nice and warm wearing it, it will pop up a lot more often.

Last worn: dog print top, grey pencil skirt, Wittner heels, Balenciaga velo. First time I've worn the leather jacket as it is a new purchase.

One last little note I want to add - If you have heard about the tornado in Oklahoma please consider doing what you can to help those impacted by it. My church, Life Church, has setup a page to show how you can help, and is collecting items for donations if you are local to the area. There is also the Red Cross, and more ways you can help on the NBC site. I've never been to Oklahoma and I only volunteer at Church Online, but many of my team members and the staff I know and work with are there as it's where the church grew. It's been horrible seeing what has happened there, and I'm praying for those who are dealing with the devastation.

And if you are blog-hopping looking for a bit of frivolity to escape the horrible stories on the news, watch this good news story instead. Especially at the 1.30 mark, it's beautiful.
