Navy Printed Dresses For The Office with Leather Jacket and Boots | Weekday Wear Link Up

For today's weekday wear link up, I'm layering up two blue printed dresses for winter office days. I added leather jackets, fleece lined tights and boots to make these more suitable for the cold early morning commute.

What I wore:

Jacket: Wittner 'Santa Fe' cobalt blue leather jacket
Necklace: adjustable coral flat bead necklace
Dress: Shein navy flower print flowy dress (c/o) 
Shoes: Asos Cleo leather boots in tan
Bag: thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue

Why I wore it:

I love this cobalt leather jacket so much - can't believe this is the first time I've gotten it out this winter! I really like the brighter cobalt blue against the navy floral swing dress. The dress is quite light as it's just viscose, so I did debate adding a scarf with this, btu decided this pretty coral necklace was so similar to the colours in the print that it would be wrong to cover it up with a scarf. the jacket is roomy so I could zip it up for the cold morning thankfully.

The tall leather boots added a bit of extra warmth too, and with the cobalt jacket, dark navy Cupid bag and the tan boots, there was a lot of different colours of leather in this outfit, but I think they all work so nicely together.


Last worn: cobalt leather jacket, coral beaded necklace, navy floral swing dress, tan leather boots, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag.

Other ways to wear: cobalt leather jacket worn 30 ways, navy floral swing dress and blazer, tan leather boots worn 30 ways, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid bag and pink jeans.

What I wore:

Jacket: Witchery black belted moto leather jacket
Necklace: Tiffany & Co pink double heart tag pendant necklace
Dress: Jeanswest 'Chelsea' printed dress
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
Bag: thrifted Rebecca Minkoff vintage Cupid satchel in dark navy blue

Why I wore it:

Not quite as colourful as the outfit above, but this outfit featured exactly the same outfit formula, with a navy printed dress, fleece tights, boots, and this time around a black leather jacket. I love both of these leather jackets a lot, but I'm still amazed I scored this one at Gladrags Markets for just $30, considering the cobalt one was one I bought full price and it cost 10 times as much as that! I really enjoy finding preloved bargains!

While I do prefer this dress with bare legs in the warmer weather, I think with all of the black (and the very dark navy of the Rebecca Minkoff cupid bag) this dress layered up nicely.


Last worn: black leather jacket, Tiffany necklace, navy tile print dress, black ankle boots, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid (above).

Other ways to wear: black leather jacket and stripes, navy tile print dress with pink, ankle boots worn 30 ways, Rebecca Minkoff Cupid and jeans.

Perfect for pregnancy: navy print dress in second trimester, ankle boots in second trimester.

30 Ways To Wear: Cobalt Blue Moto Leather Jacket

It feels a little strange to be putting together a post of 30 ways I've worn a leather jacket when it's spring here in Brisbane. But I realised when I wore this beautiful blue moto jacket over winter that it had passed 30 wears, and it's definitely overdue a post! It's always fun searching back in my blog archives and stumbling across pieces I've worn more than 30 times without realising, like this jacket. It's one of the benefits of using my blog as an outfit diary - years of photos of what I've worn out each day to make putting these posts together so easy.

30 Ways To Wear: Cobalt Leather Moto Jacket

I first saw this leather jacket in a magazine I'm sure - as much as I loved Wittner shoes for leather shoes for work I wasn't a regular visitor of their website. But once I'd seen it, I could not get it out of my head. It was an online only piece so no chance of trying it on in store, and I spent weeks mulling it over before buying. Wittner is a shoe brand and only did jackets for a couple of years I think - hard to find out much info as it was so long ago I bought this. So glad I did buy it though, all the way back in 2013! I've seen it online called both Santa Fe which I label it on my blog, or Sante Fe as the email receipt says. Since it was so long ago I don't have any tags to confirm, but searching online for both names shows that at one point they made this jacket in black too. I do love the cobalt blue though!

Cost Per Wear

While winter in Brisbane doesn't last that long I like wearing my leather jackets on the super cold days. As a result this only gets worn a few times a year, so it's taken me quite a while to pass 30 wears with it! It's currently at 36 wears. 

This jacket is one of my rare full price buys, and aside from my wedding dress, it's the most I've ever paid for an item of clothing.  It was a huge $299.95, and never went on sale so I'm glad I splurged on it full price! At 36 wears it's $8.33 a wear currently, which is a lot higher than the 'under $1 per wear' figure most people aim for to get "value for money". But with just 36 wears in 8 years, and so few really cold winter days in Brisbane, I expect it to last so much longer in my wardrobe. It is definitely an investment piece I never see myself giving up!

Because this is a 30 ways to wear post, I narrowed it down and as usual just chose 30 of my favourite ways I've worn this, from 2013 to now.

---

Cobalt Leather Jacket With Neutrals

The easiest way to wear any item that's a big bold block of colour: wear it with neutrals! White, grey, black, all work so well with this jacket as it lets the jacket be the statement piece in your outfit.

Cobalt Leather Jacket With Purple

I really like blue and purple together and these 4 outfits illustrate that any shades combine well! From a lilac tee to a deep sapphire bag, or even 3 shades of purple like that last outfit there with the different accessories, it's just such a good combination.

Cobalt Leather Jacket With Red

This is another fun colour combination, that is a really bright one too. Red and blue are another power combo together, and against the cobalt jacket red really pops! Even something as small as a little red accessory like a bag or scarf looks fantastic with the bright blue.

Blue Leather Jacket With Yellow

Like red and blue above, yellow is a fun combination but surprisingly one I haven't worn all that much with this jacket! I like wearing yellow as it's such a cheerful colour and I find it looks so good with the cobalt - from a bright mustard like the clutch bag in the middle there, to a pastel yellow like the tees.

Cobalt Leather Jacket With Pink

As much as I enjoy the other colour combinations with this jacket, saving the best for last here as blue and pink together always makes me smile! As with the previous colours I shared above, again I find any shade of pink (or even multiple shades of pink) are nice against the cobalt. From magenta to hot pink to pastel pink, it all just works so well.

Blue Moto Leather Jacket With Maxis

Jeans and a leather jacket is a style staple and one I've worn quite a lot with this jacket, but it's good to try different things too and I find that maxi skirts and dresses are a nice pairing with the leather jacket. A leather jacket is a great topper with a maxi skirt or dress on a cooler day.

Cobalt Leather Jacket With Dresses

While pink and blue is my favourite colour combination, a leather jacket and dress has to be my favourite outfit pairing. Much like the maxi dresses above, you can't go wrong with a cute little dress and a leather jacket. Add some tights and boots and a scarf if it's really cold too and you're snuggly and warm for winter.

---

Similar Blue Moto Jackets

Normally I'd include where you could get the look under $50 but, much like this cobalt jacket of mine, the available options I could find are definitely in the splurge category! Here are some similar pieces, most at lower prices than I paid for mine, but all unfortunately above the bargain $50 price point.

Stripe Dresses, Skull Scarves, Leather Jacket and Converse With Magenta Edie Bag | Weekday Wear Link Up

For today's Weekday Wear Link Up, sticking with my tried and true outfit formulas: stripe dresses and skull scarves with leather jackets and converse. And my little Rebecca Minkoff Edie bag in magenta for a pop of colour.

What I wore:

Jacket: Wittner 'Santa Fe' cobalt blue leather jacket
Scarf: Alexander McQueen skull scarf in light blue
Dress: thrifted Kmart white and navy long sleeve stripe tee dress
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star coast blue
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

This outfit was one I wanted to wear to fix the issues I felt last time I wore this dress. It was an okay outfit then but everything didn't come together the way I hoped it would last time I wore it. So this time, I stuck with lots of blue! My favourite colour. All the different shades of it with the pastel blue skull scarf, cobalt jacket and sky blue converse all work so well together. I love this magenta Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag with the different shades of blue too.

I really liked this outfit a lot more than the last one - and there was no lockdown announcement when I wore the dress this time which was guaranteed to make me feel good! Instead it was the school run, taking Cooper to the groomers, a quick stop at Kmart to pickup a present for a birthday party, and returning all those lockdown books we borrowed to the library. We had so many books to return as I let the kids go a little crazy last time and borrow as many as they liked!

While this is exactly the same outfit formula as the last time I wore this dress, the different pieces and colour scheme really made a huge difference to this for me. Something so simple about copying a previous outfit and just changing up the pieces.

Last worn: cobalt leather jacket, pastel blue skull scarf, navy white striped dress, blue Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody in magenta.

Other ways to wear: cobalt leather jacket and maxi skirt, pastel blue skull scarf and black dress, navy white striped dress and denim jacket, blue Converse and maxi dress, Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody in magenta and culottes.

Perfect for pregnancy: pastel blue skull scarf at 40 weeks.

What's In My Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie Crossbody

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest black leather moto jacket
Scarf: Alexander McQueen azure wool skull scarf
Dress: All About Eve striped black tee dress 
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

Again with my magenta Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag and another Alexander McQueen skull scarf. I told you I liked the simplicity of outfit formulas!

Unlike the colourful outfit above I kept this fairly monochrome with the black and white striped dress, black leather jacket and black Converse All Star. The colourful accessories were a good way to brighten this up a bit.

The black leather jacket was definitely a bit much with this tee dress in the afternoon though - it was a gloriously warm day and it wasn't needed for our library run. I appreciated it in the cooler morning on the school run though, was a little chilly and good to have those extra layers.

Unfortunately I managed to spill hand sanitiser over the back of this cute little Edie bag when trying to get the phone out the back pocket to get a phone call, after I'd just put sanitiser on my hands. Hand sanitiser and leather don't mix well and it's now missing a chunk of colour on the back of the bag where the sanitiser landed. Could have been worse though, at least it isn't the front of the bag!

Last worn: black leather jacket, cobalt skull scarf, black and white stripe tee dress, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag (above).

Other ways to wear: black leather jacket and maxi skirt, cobalt skull scarf and little black dress, black and white stripe tee dress with purple, black Converse and pencil skirt, Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag and jeans.

Perfect for pregnancy: Converse in second trimester.

How You Can Wear It:

Striped dresses are a staple wardrobe basic! You can layer them up with lots of bright accessories to add more colour to an outfit. Make it easy by adding just two extra colours like I have here with pink and blue. A magenta bag goes with every shade of blue!

Leather Jackets and Striped Tee Dresses: Weekday Wear Link Up

Making my striped tee-dresses a little more winter friendly with some scarves and leather jackets, for two very different (but thankfully not too cold) winter days.

What I wore:

Earrings: Piper gold heart earrings

Jacket: Wittner 'Santa Fe' cobalt blue leather jacket
Scarf: Alexander McQueen modal and cashmere skull scarf
Dress: Atmos&Here navy stripe tee dress 
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff chevron quilted small Love crossbody bag in pale coral

Why I wore it:

This was a really fun day! Hubby took the boys for a day of birthday parties to celebrate three different kid's birthdays while I headed down the coast with my mum and sister for a day of shopping. Something we had been trying to plan for a while, but eventually everything aligned and we were able to go. Since Pac Fair shopping centre is part indoors and part outdoors, I thought bare legs were okay despite a little bit of a breeze. This was a really comfortable outfit to wear although when the wind picked up in the evening it was a little chilly.

With the navy stripes on the tee dress and the cobalt blue leather jacket I thought this little peachy Rebecca Minkoff small Love bag was the perfect pop of colour, especially as I was wearing a neutral taupe skull scarf. I really like skull scarves with this striped dress! As it was a rare kid-free day for me I really didn't need to carry much. While my new wallet means this bag is a bit of a tight squeeze with phone, keys and hand sanitiser I just left the wallet behind and took a few cards with me, using it like a wallet on a chain. Didn't need to worry about having any payment methods with me in the end! I did try on a couple of pieces, but didn't buy anything as mum picked up the two tops I liked in the H&M sale for me. Can't wait for warmer weather to wear what she bought me!


Last worn: heart earrings, cobalt leather jacket, taupe skull scarf, navy stripe tee dress, New Balance sneakers, Rebecca Minkoff pale coral small Love bag.

Other ways to wear: cobalt leather jacket and maxi skirt, taupe skull scarf and shirt dress, navy stripe tee dress and denim jacket, Rebecca Minkoff pale coal small Love bag and black maxi dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: taupe skull scarf in first trimester, navy stripe tee dress in second trimester.

Rebecca Minkoff Edie and Love Bag Comparison:

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Asos Black by Markus Lupfer printed leather jacket
Scarf: Fashion Scarf Girl lush forest scarf
Dress: thrifted Kmart white and navy long sleeve stripe tee dress
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie small crossbody bag in magenta

Why I wore it:

Was planning for this to be a more leisurely day. We had a couple errands to run and some groceries to grab in the morning, before a trip to the library and then some time at the playground before heading home. Just as we pulled up to the library though my sister called to let me know another lockdown had been announced for Brisbane. It's not as bad as what Sydney is going through thankfully, just 8 days. Given the government hasn't bothered to secure enough vaccines for us these short lockdowns are a way of life for us now! 8 days seems particularly long as 3 days is our usual, but the virus got into a school so extra time was needed to make sure all the cases were identified and quarantined to get us back to zero covid cases outside of quarantine, which we are at now.

The kids were really happy as it meant I let them stock up on a lot more books than usual! We did decide to go home after though, skipping the playground in favour of starting lockdown at home a little early and playing in the backyard instead. Even if our day was cut a little short it was a good morning.

I'd decided to wear this cute striped tee dress as I really haven't been wearing enough dresses this winter! And this one layers well with the black leather jacket. I changed my mind a couple times about the scarf, the one I'd thought would be nice with the little Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody looked a bit off so I picked this one instead. I've enjoyed wearing it with stripes before and I like the magenta of the bag with the purple in the scarf. It was a little warm with both the scarf and leather jacket though and I ended up taking the leather jacket off - warmed up much more than I expected!


Last worn: black printed leather jacket, forest print scarf, white striped tee dress, New Balance sneakers (above), Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag.

Other ways to wear: black printed leather jacket worn 30 ways, forest print scarf with purple, white striped tee dress with pink, Rebecca Minkoff Edie crossbody bag and pencil skirt.

How You Can Wear It:

A leather jacket is a nice way to winterise a dress a little for a warmer winter day. Stripes are a great base for print mixing too, and a colourful scarf can be a fun way to add a little extra to your outfit. A bright crossbody bag adds more colour too!

Printed Maxi Skirts, Yellow Tees and Louis Vuitton Bags | Weekday Wear Link Up

Two colourful printed maxi skirt outfits I wore recently; with yellow tees, sneakers and Louis Vuitton bags.

What I wore:

Jacket: Cotton On girlfriend denim jacket in whitehaven
Necklace: Kmart navy and gold beaded tassel necklace
Tee: Big W mustard v-neck tee
Skirt: thrifted Billabong 'Don't Think Of It' bikini red printed maxi skirt
Shoes: New Balance Coast women's running shoe in black 
Bracelets: the usual plus Cora purpleheart and mother of pearl watch c/o JORD
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur neverfull

Why I wore it:

This was a really fun day! Everything aligned for my family to have the day off for the first day of school holidays, so my mum, sister and I took the kids to Paradise Country for the first time. I'm so glad we planned to do this. Not only because it was a beautiful sunny day and the boys had a great time, but also because we found out after we had left the house that there were some COVID cases in the community (it had spread out of quarantine) and so restrictions were going to be coming in. And the next day there were more cases and a 3 day lockdown was announced, unfortunately ruining the rest of the school holiday plans.

Thankfully though we were worry free as we enjoyed the day out! The kids had a blast, there was so much to do and see there for such a small park. The koala cuddles were of course my favourite bit!

It was so warm too I even considered taking my denim jacket off at one point, but by that point the boys had taken their jackets off and we had bought a few things so my poor Louis Vuitton Neverfull was looking too stuffed for me to consider trying to add my jacket on top of it! I think the white denim jacket was a great topper with this (apart from being a little too warm in the middle of the day). It's not the first time I've worn this red maxi skirt with yellow but it's the first time I've tried so much yellow with it, and with the white denim jacket on top it didn't feel too bold.

Last worn: white denim jacket, navy gold necklace, mustard tee, red printed maxi skirt, New Balance sneakers, Louis Vuitton damier azur neverfull.

Other ways to wear: white denim jacket with jeans, mustard tee with navy stripes, red printed maxi skirt and blue tee, Louis Vuitton damier azur neverfull worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton damier azur neverfull at 38 weeks.

My Louis Vuitton Handbag Collection:

What I wore:

Jacket: Wittner 'Santa Fe' cobalt blue leather jacket
Necklace: Jeanswest Taryn turquoise tassel bead necklace
Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in elfin yellow
Skirt: Jeanswest Farrah blue tie dye maxi skirt 
Shoes: thrifted Adidas Superstar sneakers
Bag: Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere

Why I wore it:

Another colourful outfit, this time with a bit more of a subdued yellow tee, and a whole lot of blue! We were still in the 3 day lockdown but the kids had a dentist appointment and of course as they are providing medical care the dentist was still open. It was a really wet day and a little chilly so I pulled out this leather jacket for the first wearing for winter! I like the bright cobalt blue against the blues in the tie dye print on the maxi skirt. Because of the rain I wanted a waterproof bag too, so I chose this little Louis Vuitton damier ebene speedy bandouliere. It's perfect for a wet day, even if lockdown rules meant we were just outside to walk from the carpark to the dentist and back, ha! Thankfully Cooper is not the kind of dog that enjoys walks in the rain so we didn't have to spend lots of time in the rain.

Only downside to this outfit was that it took a while for my leather jacket to dry off when we got home. I was worried the slit on the maxi skirt might make it too cool for a wet day but the jacket on top kept me cosy, and it was very warm in the dentist!


Last worn: cobalt leather jacket, turquoise tassel necklace, pastel yellow tee, tie dye maxi skirt, Adidas Superstar, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere.

Other ways to wear: cobalt leather jacket and shift dress, pastel yellow tee and shorts, tie dye maxi skirt in monochrome outfit, Adidas Superstar and dress, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere and pencil skirt.

Perfect for pregnancy: Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere in third trimester.

---

How You Can Wear It:

With a colourful printed maxi skirt, a bright block colour tee is a good pairing. If you're worried the combination is too bold, a neutral topper like a denim jacket can tone the brightness down a little. Or you can dial up the colour and pick a colourful jacket like I have in the second outfit to tie in with the print on the skirt.

Leather Jackets, Skinny Jeans and Colourful Scarves

I haven't worn my leather jackets much this winter. It usually warms up a bit during the day in Brisbane so they have felt a little too heavy, but two colder days in July had me reaching for my leather jackets for the early mornings.

What I wore:

Jacket: Wittner 'Santa Fe' cobalt blue leather jacket
Scarf: Fashion Scarf Girl pretty pink diamond scarf
Jumper: Jeanswest Kara foil pullover in smoke marl and silver
Jeans: Sass & Bide The Winning Day Lovestate jeans in magenta
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in white
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford zip satchel in twilight

Why I wore it:

A very colourful outfit! I really liked the combination of a jumper, these magenta skinny jeans and a pink printed scarf last time I wore it. This time around I picked my grey polka dot knit and this multi coloured diamond print scarf. Even if the pink didn't match the magenta of the jeans exactly I really liked this combination! Especially with this bright cobalt leather jacket for an extra bit of warmth on a very cold and windy day. As well as working from home I had some tradies over coming in and out of the house all day, and Cooper had a bath at the groomers. A very busy day!

Last worn: cobalt leather jacket, colourful scarf, foil print knit jumper, magenta skinny jeans, white Converse, Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag.

Other ways to wear: cobalt leather jacket and maxi skirt, colourful scarf and maxi skirt, foil print knit jumper and shorts, magenta skinny jeans and navy tank, white Converse and printed dress, Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford bag and striped dress.

Perfect for pregnancy: white Converse in second trimester.

My Scarf Collection:

---

What I wore:

Jacket: Jeanswest black leather moto jacket
Scarf: Marc by Marc Jacobs scarf in Island pine-print
Jumper: thrifted Valleygirl blue knit jumper
Jeans: Jeanswest Harper skinny pant in Russet
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Micro Bedford zip satchel in twilight

Why I wore it:

We were running a little late this morning and I think that's why my scarf looks like it was thrown on in a hurry - it was 😂 I thought the blue and red in the scarf went nicely with the cobalt knit and burgundy jeans. The black leather jacket didn't stay on long though, by the afternoon both it and the scarf had come off as it was so warm at school pickup time a jumper and jeans were all that were needed. 

The scarf came off pretty quickly in the morning as after school drop off we went to grab some more milk and run a couple of errands. It was cold enough to want the scarf on, but my youngest son who had decided not to wear a jumper was cold and I figured it would be better giving him my scarf than letting him drag my leather jacket on the ground! He did look very cute in it!

Last worn: black leather jacket, Marc Jacobs scarf, cobalt knit, burgundy skinny jeans, black Converse, Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford (above).

Other ways to wear: black leather jacket and maxi skirt, printed scarf and chambray dress, cobalt knit over a maxi dress, burgundy skinny jeans and duster, black Converse and pencil skirt, Rebecca Minkoff micro Bedford and shorts.

Perfect for pregnancy: pine print scarf in third trimester, cobalt knit in first trimester, black Converse in second trimester.

How You Can Wear it:

Jeans and a leather jacket is a classic winter outfit combination. You can add a little extra colour with some bright skinny jeans or a colourful scarf, or both!
