Everything I wore last week | 14
Navigating early spring weather and styling a couple of new secondhand finds
Last week’s weather had me constantly switching up my wardrobe—from gorgeous, sunny spring days to wild storms and relentless wind… oh, the wind! Here’s a roundup of all the outfits that got me through the week….check out my new reel for all the outfits in motion!
MONDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = JEANS ➕ STRIPED SWEATER ➕ BOMBER JACKET ➕SNEAKERS
jeans, similar / striped sweater / bomber jacket / sneakers
Outfit Details…Monday was all about spending time with my littlest one while the big kids were at school. After ticking off some errands, we headed to the movies for my son’s first cinema experience—and we had the whole place to ourselves! So much fun! I started the day in cropped jeans but quickly switched to my full-length relaxed denim as it wasn’t as warm out as I thought. My go-to Arket striped sweater and olive green bomber were perfect for the day, especially paired with my new Adidas Sambas. I’m fully embracing my green era right now!
TUESDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = BARREL JEANS ➕SHIRT ➕ BOMBER JACKET ➕MULES
barrel jeans / shirt / bomber jacket / mules / bag / necklace
Outfit Details…I scored this grey M&S bomber jacket brand new on Depop, and the moment it arrived on Monday, I knew I had to wear it straight away! It was a great layer for a day in the office. I styled it with my new black barrel jeans (these are so versatile and not to mention comfortable!) and a classic striped button-down - I loved this outfit so much—it’s definitely one I’ll be repeating all spring long
WEDNESDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = SILK PANTS ➕SWEATER ➕ DENIM JACKET ➕ SNEAKERS
silk pants / sweater / denim jacket / sneakers / sunnies / bag
Outfit Details…working from home called for comfort without sacrificing style, so I practiced what I preach about outfit repeating and reached for a look I wore a couple of weeks ago. These silk pants have become a favourite—they’re just so incredibly comfortable! This time, I paired them with my new green Adidas Sambas for the first time, and I love how well they worked together.
THURSDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = JEANS ➕ SWEATER ➕ BOMBER JACKET ➕ SNEAKERS
jeans, similar / sweater / bomber jacket / sneakers / bag / sunnies
Outfit Details…I headed into the city for a work event and made the most of it by grabbing a chai latte before hopping on the train. It was so nice to savor 30 minutes of quiet time to myself! You know you've made a great purchase when you keep reaching for it, and this grey bomber jacket is exactly that. I styled it with a black sweater, Converse, and a black leather bag to pull the whole look together.
FRIDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = TRACK PANTS ➕ SWEATER ➕
track pants / sweater, similar
Outfit Details…I woke up on Friday with the worst headache and sore throat, so I took the day off to rest with my also-sick hubby. We ended up watching *Ford vs. Ferrari*—have you seen it? I absolutely loved it, and it definitely helped take my mind off feeling like rubbish. While I could have stayed in my PJs all day, I know that a shower and getting dressed can do wonders. I threw on a new secondhand Varley jumper with a cute collar and big buttons, hoping it might cheer me up—and it did! Paired it with my black track pants for ultimate comfort.
SATURDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = JEANS ➕ SWEATER ➕TRENCH COAT ➕ SNEAKERS
jeans, similar / sweater, similar/ trench coat, similar / sneakers / bag
Outfit details…I had an eye appointment on Saturday morning, which gave me a reason to get dressed—though, full transparency, I was back in my track pants as soon as we got home! I have to admit, buying new glasses is one of my least favourite things. I wear them so rarely because I usually end up not loving them once they arrive. Fingers crossed this time is different—I went for a pair a little outside my comfort zone (I’ll share them in my stories when they arrive!). For the appointment, I wore my cropped wide-leg jeans and the Varley jumper from Friday (it deserved to get out of the house!), and to elevate the look, I added my trench coat.
SUNDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = PJ STYLE PANTS ➕SWEATER ➕ DENIM JACKET ➕SNEAKERS
pj style pants / sweater / denim jacket / sneakers / bag / sunnies
Outfit details…We kept Father’s Day low-key this year since we were all still feeling under the weather, but that didn’t stop us from celebrating the best dad around! We ventured out to a local café for some coffee and cake. Honestly, I wasn’t feeling inspired when I opened my wardrobe—I’m not sure if it’s because I wasn’t feeling 100% or if spring’s arrival has me itching for a wardrobe refresh. Either way, I went with a recent go-to outfit: my PJ-style pants, a cozy sweater, and my trusty denim jacket.
Another week wrapped up! Thanks for reading along. If you know someone who could use a little outfit inspiration, feel free to share this post with them. Until next time!
