There’s nothing like a little bit of animal print to bring a bit of pizazz to one’s wardrobe. I wasn’t sure whether I was going to like this little cami on me when I saw it for the Style It Project, (even though I liked it on others!) but oh my, the moment I slipped it on in the Big W change rooms, I knew it was a keeper. Plus it was 30% off – score! $13 for a little top I’ve already worn several times. (But keep forgetting to photograph – Sorrrreeee!)
I went with hubby to one of his mate’s 40th birthday in Brisbane recently and wore my zebra cami. It was already happy I was wearing it as we glided to our venue in the city cat.
Perfect for picnic lunch on the banks of the Brisbane river and then onto a bar then Turkish for dinner later in the evening. Surprisingly for Brisbane I didn’t need to take my jacket off the whole time as the sky was overcast and there was a bit of a nip in the air. My white Sussan linen jacket (current season) was a perfect accompaniment along with my (current season) Rare Rabbit wooden beads.
I have also worn the cami with a jacket to playgroups and shopping. It will be a lovely cool option on its own when the weather warms up too. It’s great with a little white bolero cardi that I picked up at a sample sale at Kaffe Boutique. (Locals: I can’t believe it’s in Cliffo! It’s like a little corner of European class. Who knows it might inspire some of the locals to ditch the uggies and leggings(with short shirts) and dress up a little!)
Today I’m dressed in it ready to take the kids to a concert. We’re seeing Colin Buchanan, we saw him last year when he was in town and the kids were delighted when Daddy brought home tickets last night for them to see him today!
And you know, because it is a concert, I thought I’d look like the cool Mum (Ha!) in my pink biker jacket. Although one look at the five kids I have in tow, nobody will be fooled that I would be riding a motorbike. Yep, it’s a mini-van for me the whole way there.
What was the last concert you went to? I think I see more kids concerts and theatre productions these days then I see the grown up variety. But that’s still cultured, isn’t it? Right? RIGHT???

All of your outfits look great Caitlin. I love the cami paired with the light pink jacket. The chunky white necklace is fabulous. Great style! Shannon x
Wow, you certainly went to a real concert!!! Pink is the big time, sorry you didn’t have a good time there! You and I should not go to a concert together though. I’m very happy to sit down. Let’s just say my dance skills don’t bust a groove! You’ll have get passes to the mosh pit next time! I’m dying to go to a Playschool concert. I never seem to be in the loop when they come to town until it’s too late.
Thanks Shannon. I always get compliments when I wear the pink jacket and I’m in love with the chunky geometric necklace.
The trick is to follow Kids Promotions on Facebook. They let you know when tickets go on sale.

Ah, thanks for the tip! Done!
Love it. I just bought my Zebra cami yesterday for this’ month’s style project.
I love that necklace you’ve styled with the top. It gives it so much more pop and glam.

Love how you’ve worn the zebra cami numerous times. I agree with the other comments – the pink jacket and Rare Rabbit necklace are fabulous. I need more chunky necklaces in my life – will have to check those out. Last concert I went to – yep playschool. But before that – The Cat Empire and it was amazing.
Wonderful look here mummy! I love the zebra top, just gives an edge to your outfit.
Looking forward to your future outfit posts 😉
