Ever buy an item that you just can’t wait to wear, and then it ends up hanging in your closet for awhile? Thats what happened to me with this maroon moto jacket from Old Navy. I bought it when it was still pretty warn out, so I wasn’t quite ready for full on jackets. Then it pretty much turned to early winter and all I wanted to wear is sweaters and cardigans. Finally, I’ve adjusted and I’m ready to explore more of my closet.
So when I decided it was time to break in my beauty of a maroon moto jacket, I knew this dress would be a winner. I’ve previously worn it with my maroon OTK boots, so I knew it worked wonderfully with maroon. After that, it was just the accessories. I almost went with the aforementioned maroon OTK boots, but decided a sleeker look would be the way to go. Throw on a pair of black leggings (its cold around here!) and black OTK boots, and the outfit is set. I wanted to go simple with a bag, so this Rebecca Minkoff black bag was perfect.
Now that I’ve worn it, I want to keep reaching for it. I’m thinking I want to pair it with something navy next, but a grey dress would be great too. Do you have any other combinations I should try?

This jacket is beautiful on you! I tried it on in wine and bought it in cognac – I was second guessing my decision but now it’s too late – sold out at my store and online in a small. Kicking myself!!!

It is so good! But the cognac one is a good choice too!
This is a fabulous jacket. You always find the best pieces at ON.
ON has made it pretty easy lately 🙂
Your opening paragraph is what happened to me this year: 4 times! I bought all these cute jackets and it was too hot to wear them in the fall, and then they weren’t warm enough to wear when the temps did turn cold. I should know better than to buy a “fall” jacket for Wisconsin. I do love these little jackets though. Yours is so cute. I love how you styled it.
I hear you! Fall in the Midwest can certainly be finicky! Here’s to hoping we can get more wear out of those cute jackets once spring rolls around.
Moto Marvelous! LOVE this color on you!
Thanks friend!
That jacket, looks fantastic on you, as does those boots. I just bought some OTK boots from Target, go cheap first before I invest in the big guns…hehe.
Haha I hear you, I’ll stick with my cheap pair 🙂
I kept looking at that jacket, but sadly never bought it. it’s perfect on you!
If you get the chance, buy it! So good!
I love that jacket – and how you styled it.

Thanks Lisa!

To a great color for fall! Plus it will transition to winter easy peasy too.
