Louis Vuitton Neverfull and Blue Printed Dresses For The Office With Blazers

My go-to outfit for the office is a printed dress. You instantly look and feel more pulled together, and it's such a quick outfit. I try to plan my outfits out the night before, so when I've had a tough day or I'm too tired to want to stand in front of my wardrobe, I just grab a dress to wear the next day.

What I wore:

NecklaceStarfish Project Hannah turquoise bead necklace
DressJeanswest Aztec print dress
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs metallic mouse flats (on sale in black!)
BagLouis Vuitton MM damier azur neverfull

Why I wore it:

I actually wore this a couple months ago, but just never got around to posting. I work from home one day a week, and the other two days I'm in the office. This means I can easily group together the two office outfits for a blog post, makes blogging simple.

When I wore this dress, it had been an absolutely crazy week, with the boys and I unwell, so I only made it into the office once. Because of that, this solitary office outfit had sat around for a while until another week where I only went into the office once so I'd have something to post with it.

I picked this dress to wear as I love the colour and print, and blue is always a mood booster for me when having a crazy week. I really like the simplicity of this dress for the office. Blue and green is a colour combination I've been warming to lately, and this necklace looks great with a blue dress.

BagLouis Vuitton MM damier azur neverfull

Why I wore it:

Another crazy week calling for another simple dress outfit. This blue one is one of the oldies in my wardrobe, bought near the start of my career with my current company. I've been there a long time! I love how it continues to look just as good as it did when I first bought it, and wonderful addition to my wardrobe. It would be nice to have taken more photos of it before the blog, as I'm sure it's over 30 wears. It's only the 6 years I've been blogging that I've been taking regular daily outfit pics though, so I don't have any photos of this before the blog.

Just like the dress above, a blue printed dress boosts my mood, and that was what was needed for this busy day. While I kept the bag the same, I went with silver flats instead of gold, and a different blazer. I may even like this outfit a little more than the first one.

For an instant confidence boots at work, make sure you have a cute printed dress in your favourite colour. Mine is blue of course.

  28. If I had to choose, I like the second one the most! That's a great palette to complement the bag. I've never tried a Neverfull as I never have much to fill it with, but I always love the look!

  32. I loved the first dress and the bag and the second is amazing as well, a classic! I liked the first necklace as well, and I am always happy to see you in flats - so much comfort! Around 4 years ago, and it seems to me like a looong time, I only wore high heels to any activity - I still hear some jokes from when I went to Stonehenge in heels and everybody looked at me! But then a friend wore flats and I gave it a go - and now I am such a fan of them and wear them most of the time! You look so beautiful! Hope you have a nice week!

    1. I used to wear heels a lot before a knee injury - since then I've embraced flats a lot more and I so rarely wear heels! They aren't the best choice for running around with the boys anyway, and there are so many cute flats around! :)

  33. Both these blue dresses look so fab on you, Mica:) I agree about printed dresses being a great go-to piece. And I have the monogram Neverfull and Speedy. I don't have a lot of designer pieces but these two I really do love. You can fit so many things in them!

  44. The Damier print on the Neverfull is such a classic. I think I prefer it to the monogram, it just seems to be more versatile! I think I would agree with you on the second outfit, while both are great something about the second one seems more interesting. I think it's the light colours and mixed prints with the dress and bag.
