Skinny Jeans, Colourful Scarves and Rebecca Minkoff Bags

Still posting more of my Fox in Flats style challenge outfits from May. As the temperatures started dropping, I had to add some scarves as well. It's a nice way to add colour in autumn or winter. They are also easily washable for life with baby, although I haven't yet found a way to stop baby grabbing and tugging on them sometimes!

What I wore:

Turquoise scarf and bag purple skinny jeans converse printed tank casual mum outfit

Rebecca Minkoff aquamarine python snake embossed leather mini MAC bag
Scarf: Cotton On turquoise pashmina
NecklaceHouse of Harlow sunburst necklace in silver and grey
TankJeanswest 'Rowena' print tank
JeansJeanswest blackberry super skinny jeans
ShoesConverse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
BagRebecca Minkoff mini MAC with python embossed leather in aquamarine (on sale here!)

Why I wore it:

I really liked the colour combination in this outfit! It's not the first time I've worn the bag and jeans together, but it's the first time I've worn the scarf and bag together. They go so well! I'll probably wear them together a few more times before winter is over...

The style challenge for the day was 'back track', so I wore this tank with the cut-out detail on the back. You can see it better on instagram. As I was taking the photos I was slowly realising it was much colder than I expected, much too cold for bare arms, so I had to run back inside and grab a jacket before we went out. Baby and I had planned to meet up with a mother's group in the park, but as I was running a little behind with all the errands I had to do that morning and I was worried how baby would cope in the cold, we decided to skip it and go home early.


Last wornturquoise scarf, printed tank, purple skinny jeans, Converse, RM aqua mini MAC.

Other ways to wear: turquoise scarf with a printed dress, printed tank and maxi skirt hiding a second trimester baby bump, purple skinny jeans in spring, Converse and spring dresses, mini MAC and a maxi dress.









What I wore:

JacketJeanswest brown marle waterfall cardi
Scarf: Supre neon pink leopard print scarf
TeeAtmos&Here grey v-neck tee with rolled sleeves (on sale in black and in white)
JeansJeanswest Bindi skinny 7/8 jeans in indigo luxe
BootsAsos Cleo leather boots in tan
BagRebecca Minkoff Love cross body bag in grey

Why I wore it:

The style challenge for the day was 'simple formula' which worked out well for me as it was another morning where I was running behind! The formula I went with was 'grey tee, skinny jeans and great accessories'.

I thought the scarf added a nice touch of colour, and some print mixing with the cardi. Just needed a cosy and comfortable outfit. Baby T and I went to the library in the morning, and then playgroup later on. It was good to be able to take off some layers as it heated up through the day.


Last worn: brown cardiganneon leopard print scarf, grey tee, skinny jeans, brown boots, Rebecca Minkoff Love bag.

Other ways to wear: leopard print scarf with a more casual skinny jeans outfit, grey tee and maxi skirt, skinny jeans with printed kimono, leather boots with a dress, grey RM bag and neutral outfit.

  4. Another perfect example of how accessoires can change the enitre look! Though your first look is really simple, it looks fresh and edgy with your accessoires, Mica! I love your Rebecca Minkoff's bag collection! I'm a great fan of leopard prints - it's such a fabulous pop of color here and totally works with those brown boots!!! Happy Hump Day, lovely Mica!! <3

  5. I have to say your scarf collection is pretty fabulous! (Second place only to your bag collection, of course!) I love the beautiful, bright turquoise color of that first scarf (and bag). Such a fun touch to the outfit!

  15. Now I kind of regret not having a single pair of skinny jeans in my closet:) You make them look so cool. I'm not a fan but on you they look so perfect.

    First outfit is so much fun. I love the colour combo. The bag and the scarf match perfectly. I also really like the converse, they make this outfit even more youthful, positive and playful....

    The second outfit is fabulous! I really like the boots and the bag...and than animal print scarf is the perfect addition of colour.

    Yes, I had a pair of jelly sandals when I was a kid and if my memory is to be trusted they were bright red.

    I really like your jelly sandals and this outfit is a great match for them. The pastel blue jacket is so divine...and that striped dress looks amazing on you. With that model body, I'm sure you can rock every and any dress.

    I'm happy to hear you have a new job you're really happy with...and a new make up palette and haircut to match:) Small changes can make such a difference.

    Have a lovely day!
