Dresses, Denim Jacket and Louis Vuitton Speedy Bandouliere

Dresses and denim jackets are starting to become a go-to outfit combo for autumn. While winter is only a couple of weeks away, the days are still warm enough for a denim jacket to be a good topper for an outfit. I'm also trying to squeeze in as many wears as I can of bare legs and dresses before I need tights!

What I wore:


autumn style zara printed bib front tunic dress denim jacket LV speedy bandouliere | AwayFromBlue

Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere | AwayFromTheBlue
Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
NecklaceUniquely Made with Love Sea Change necklace
Dress: Zara printed bib front tunic dress
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs metallic mouse flats (on sale in black, and super cute in cherry print!)
BagLouis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere


Why I wore it:

Wore this for a physio appointment. As I was kid-free, I thought it was another good excuse to get this pretty yet definitely not baby friendly necklace out! I really liked the blue beads with the navy printed dress and denim jacket.

Since I was going to do some exercises at the physio I did put on a pair of workout leggings under this (I shared a pic on my Insta stories). I took the leggings off after the session, as while they are great for exercising in, the 3/4 length is a little odd on my petite self. I'm not really an activewear person if I'm not working out.


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarer, denim jacket, Zara printed tunic, gold mouse flats, Louis Vuitton Speedy Bandouliere bag.

Other ways to weardenim jacket and denim shorts, Zara printed tunic layered for winter, gold mouse flats and skinny jeans, Louis Vuitton Speedy Bandouliere bag and pink vest.

Perfect for pregnancy: denim jacket in second trimester, printed tunic belted over a baby bump, speedy bandouliere and maternity pencil skirts.

cheeky Cooper rescue Shih Tzu, Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere | Away From The Blue
Jacket: Bubblegum denim jacket
Necklace: Nibbly Bits Wilma teething necklace in pale daffodil
Dress: Rivers Aztec print dress
Belt: Kmart thin gold glitter belt
ShoesRMK Chester black ankle boots (on sale!)
Bag: Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere


Why I wore it:

Cooper looks so funny in that last picture I had to crop it to show the bag and his fluffy little face!

This outfit is very similar to the one above, with a different print, an added belt and ankle boots instead of ballet flats. As you can probably tell by the yellow teething necklace, I wasn't kid free when I wore this.

Took Baby Boy to his weekly weigh and ran a couple of errands before spending time with my mum in the afternoon. I was excited to wear this dress, it's not easy to breastfeed in (although you could just tug the neckline down you'd have to stretch it too much) so it's been out of rotation for a while. I did regret my choice a little that morning when I bent over to get Baby Boy and worried the dress was a little too short...maybe will wait until I'm wearing leggings or tights before I get this dress out again!


Last worn: denim jacket (above), Aztec print dress, gold glitter belt, black RMK ankle boots, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere (above).

Other ways to weardouble denim with denim jacket, Aztec print dress at the beach, gold glitter belt and a little black dress, black RMK ankle boots and tights, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere and skinny jeans.

How You Can Wear It:


Autumn and spring are the perfect seasons to wear your favourite dresses. A denim jacket is a good layer that's easy to take off and on through the day as the temperature changes, and goes with anything so you can wear a busy printed dress if you like. On cooler days, swap out your ballet flats for ankle boots for a little extra warmth, or add tights or leggings if it's really chilly.

    I love a denim jacket as a topper - it can really give a dress a good anchor. Hope your warm weather stays a little while longer!

  14. Both dresses are so beautiful, absolutely love the prints. I am liking the mild autumn we've had for the last 6 weeks but unfortunately I think the rain is coming. I adore your mouse flats. It reminds me I need to wear mine more often. Just looked at the cherry version, want them soooo much!!!

  15. I just gave away my denim jacket! T_T but I have a chambray that I think replaces it nicely. I love it. :)

  16. A dress + a denim jacket is one of my favorite outfit combos ever, so I love both of these looks! I'm getting to the point too that I can't wear my non-baby friendly necklaces if I'm going to be home with Violet--she just wants to eat everything right now!!

  20. Cooper looks really funny in the last picture! And I know what you mean: I try also as often to wear bare legs until it gets too cold for it :) Denim jackets and dresses are indeed a great pairing and I love both of the looks you show here!

  26. Your puppy is the cutest. He is a Maltese right? Bet the boys love him. =)

    Your transitional seasons style is so cute and so you Mica. I'd wear these chic casual outfits any day. You are shopping your closet and yet staying true to yourself and your style and to what's on trend because tile prints and ethnic prints like your dresses are so IN. Love the pops of color each necklace brings to each outfit. =)

    Enjoy the weekend! <3 Ada.

  33. Just rocked a dress and a denim jacket to work yesterday! I love being able to do that. I makes me feel dressy yet chill at the same time. Especially since the back of the dress I picked had a large key hole opening not exactly office appropriate. My denim jacket has been ignored a ton lately. I was happy to give it some more love! (;
