How warm do you find it to be? I wear blazer + scarf sometimes in lieu of a coat and have some of the thicker blazers (like the hacking jacket). I have come very close to getting the navy schoolboy many times. It looks like factory has a similar, maybe thicker version with brown buttons too. Any comments on that one? Do you wear a navy blazer ever with jeans?

Yes. The navy blazer looks great with jeans. In fact, all of my Schoolboy blazers look fabulous with jeans.
As far as warmth, It really depends on the weather. I'm in NC and I could probably get away with a long-sleeved shirt, blazer, scarf, and no coat - except on colder days.

Thanks! I'm in VA so probably similar weather. I usually wear my hacking jacket as outerwear so I'm glad to hear the schoolboy is versatile too. I was thinking about getting a navy coat but I think the blazer will get a lot more use here. My DH laughed at me when I tried on a coat recently and said it was too warm... but it really doesn't get that cold here most of the time!
 
I have the Lucca suede sandals in espresso... does anyone think these are wearable with tights for fall? I guess sandals-with-tights is kind of a polarizing question, but I think these may work because the straps are fairly substantial.

I have two velvet schoolboy blazers. One is dark plum, the other is a very dark navy. I always struggle with what to wear them with and how to accessorize without looking like Liberachi. Any suggestions?

Personally, I would not wear those sandals with tights. I am not a fan of the sandals/peep-toes with tights look anyways, but if you are going to follow that trend, I think it works best with more substantial black sandals paired with black or brightly-colored tights.
