Everything I wore last week | 16
Spring warm weather looks, a girls weekend getaway and a new preloved sweater obsession!
I can’t believe it’s that time of the week again—time for my weekly outfit roundup! Honestly, I’m not sure where the last week went; it seemed to fly by in the blink of an eye. Anyone else feel the same?
The weather in Melbourne was mostly beautiful last week (apart from a torrential storm on Friday), so I finally got to bring out some of my warmer-weather pieces! Let’s dive right in…
MONDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = JEANS âž• TANK âž•CARDIGAN âž• SANDALS
Outfit Details…This outfit formula is one of my go-tos for spring (and summer). It’s simple, but it feels a bit more elevated and polished—and so versatile. It worked perfectly for a day of WFH and was just as great for an evening park hang with the kids.
I love swapping tees for tanks, and paired with wide-leg jeans, it creates a nice balance of proportions. Jeans and sandals are definitely my favourite combo this season—anyone else? Adding my favourite camel cardigan from Sezane really pulled the whole look together!
TUESDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = BARREL JEANS âž•CROPPED LINEN TOP âž• SNEAKERS
Outfit Details…I was still battling a cold on Tuesday, so it was another WFH day. I wasn’t feeling particularly inspired to put an outfit together, so I kept it simple and stuck to pieces I love that always lift my mood—instant pick-me-up!
It was a pretty warm day, so I reached for my cropped linen top. Breathable fabrics are always a good call when it’s hot. To keep the look effortless, I paired it with my well-loved Everlane barrel jeans, which always make me feel great. For a pop of colour, I grabbed my Adidas Sambas (I switched the laces to white, and I’m loving this colour combo for spring/summer!).
WEDNESDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = JEANS âž•LINEN SHIRT âž• SANDALSÂ Â
Outfit Details…Wednesday was one of those days that completely fills your cup. I don’t often get a few hours to myself, especially mid-week, with work and kids taking priority. But this Wednesday, I had a half-day of gifted holiday from work, and I made the most of it! A facial, a walk with my lovely friend Raewyn (from The Styled Life), and a late lunch on the beach—just perfect.
I loved this outfit and will definitely be repeating it. A monochrome look is always timeless and chic. These jeans (a fabulous Depop find!) have already gotten so much wear, and I paired them with a short-sleeved black linen shirt that I bought after having my third baby. I love that it’s still one of my go-to pieces!
THURSDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = DRESS âž• DENIM JACKET âž• SNEAKERS
Outfit Details…I headed into the office on Thursday, and with the sun shining, I decided to dress up a bit more than usual—ditching the jeans for something a little dressier! I was recently gifted a monthly subscription to GlamCorner (a wardrobe rental service), which I’ll dive into more on my Substack soon. One of my picks for the month was this stunning Ginger & Smart dress, and it was the perfect choice for a day at the office. I loved how the earthy tones paired with my washed black oversized denim jacket and simple white sneakers for an effortless, polished look.
FRIDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = JEANS âž• LINEN CROPPED TOP âž• SWEATER âž• SNEAKERS
Outfit Details…We had severe storms in Melbourne on Friday, but that didn’t stop me from heading out for a weekend getaway to Mount Macedon! For the 2-hour drive, I wanted something super comfy, so I reached for my go-to wide-leg jeans and paired them with a cropped linen top (one of my best preloved finds!). It was really muggy when we left Melbourne, but knowing it would be cooler when we arrived, I packed my new Zulu & Zephyr sweater—an amazing Depop find. I instantly fell in love with it when it arrived, so I had to bring it along!
SATURDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = JEANS âž• STRIPED TOP
Outfit details…If you caught my weekend highlights on Insta, you’ll know it was a super chilled one with lots of downtime. This outfit felt so effortless and was perfect for an afternoon of crafting! I’ve had so many DMs about these Everlane Barrel jeans, and honestly, they’ve become a staple since I bought them. I paired them with my new Country Road striped cropped tee (I’m really into cropped tops right now—giving me major 00’s vibes, but this time around, 95% of my stomach stays covered thanks to high-waisted jeans!).
SUNDAY
OUTFIT FORMULA = JEANS âž•VESTâž•TRENCH COAT âž• MULES
Outfit details…After a lovely morning walk and coffee run with friends, I quickly changed into a winery lunch-appropriate outfit to celebrate the last day of our getaway! I’ve been eager to wear these pieces together, and this was the perfect opportunity. My Assembly Label ecru jeans are already getting a workout (second time this week!), and as you know, I love pairing them with black. I really should do a styling video where I challenge myself to pair them with non-black items—would you watch it?
This Dissh vest is such an easy, versatile piece to style, and with the mini gale blowing at the winery, I’m so glad I packed my trench coat! It added the perfect finishing touch, plus the contrasting colours gave the look a bit more interest.
Another week wrapped up! Thanks for following along. If you know someone who could use a little outfit inspiration, feel free to share this post with them. Until next time!
