Here’s what I wore Thursday August 22. The weather in late August was great, so I still have a handful of summer outfits to post. I really like this one; casual and cute.

Another big Monki haul
The Monki outlet was so good that I had to purchase more great items.
As I wrote in my last big Monki haul, my love for overalls continues to grow. These ones were not a part of the outlet on the website, but I had to have them. They’re not just overalls; they’re purple corduroy overalls. It doesn’t get much better than that.
I’ve never been much of a jumpsuit person, but I really liked the look of this one. The colours and pattern are awesome, and I love the button down top and the wide leg bottom. It’s a great piece to throw on when you don’t know what to wear.
These jeans were not in the outlet either, but I just really wanted them. They’re cropped, wide leg style, and I love the checked pattern. I’m always up for a pair of unique jeans.
I found these two pairs of pinstriped trousers in the outlet section. The navy ones are a culotte style trouser, and the white ones are long and wide legged. I’m really excited about styling both pairs.
I’m obsessed with ’70s fashion (as you might have noticed), and this T-shirt screams ’70s. I love the brown rainbow and the retro font.
This is another pieces which wasn’t in the outlet, but how adorable is the little sweater waistcoat. I love the colours and the cherry print. So cute!
I thought this belt bag would be great for autumn due to the check print and the neutral colour scheme.
I love cute socks. I think that they add such a great little detail to an outfit, so I bought these three pairs, which I’m sure I’ll get a lot of use out of.

Summery corduroy
Here’s what I wore Wednesday August 21. I love the green, cream, and brown colour scheme of this outfit, and the fact that the corduroy trousers look very summery paired with a Hawaii shirt and heeled sandals.

Mint and orange
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I discovered that mint and orange is such a fun colour combo, and I liked it so much that I actually wore a very similar make-up earlier this week.

Casually
Here’s what I wore Tuesday August 20. I really wanted to wear my new light grey Nike Cortezs, and I decided to style them very casually with cropped jeans and a graphic T-shirt.

MAC sale lip products + one eyeliner
I recently found all of these MAC lip products + one eyeliner on sale. They were so cheap that I had to buy them:) The single eyeliner that I purchased is a Technakohl liner in the shade Sterling Silver.
I purchased 7 lip liners from three different lines/collections. I picked up three of the Liptensity lip pencils which I haven’t tried before, but I loved the purply colours (from top to bottom); Galaxy Grey, Hellebore, and La Sultana. The two shorter pencils are the Pro Longwear lip pencils, which I haven’t tried before either. The shades are Ms. Diva and Shock Value. The last two liners I’ve bought are from MAC’s regular lip pencil line, and they’re called Currant and Naked Liner.
I don’t wear blue lipstick very often anymore, but I used to have these two blue lipsticks on my wishlist. The bright matte blue is called Dreampot and the darker blue is called Designer Blue and has a frost finish. The purple lipstick also used to be on my wishlist, and it’s another frost lipstick in the shade Pick Me, Pick Me!. I thought these colours were a lot fun, and I’m excited about creating some fun make-up looks with them.
