Our 3 fave ways to wear a blazer

Check these out, too...

  • 6 handbags every girl should own
It’s easy to condemn blazers to an eternal spot in your mom’s business attire, but when you break it down, blazers are a great go-to item that every girl should have. They’re sleek, timeless and so versatile that you can grab one and go with absolutely no drama. With so many styles to choose from, it can be overwhelming, but what’s so great about all the options is that there’s bound to be the perfect blazer just for you—here’s how to rock a blazer with any outfit.

 

…with a dress

Cropped blazers look awesome with cute day dresses. Because the blazer is shorter and more fitted, the silhouette of the dress won’t disappear. With so many different dress and blazer combos, the possibilities are endless! Warm this look up with tights and bulky socks under your fave boots to finish the outfit.

…with jeans

Play with print! Pair some dark wash skinnies with a vibrant blazer to make your outfit pop. Crazy prints can work really well if they aren’t fighting for attention against other bold accessories. Let the blazer do the talking on this outfit by pairing it with a neutral tee or a crisp button-down and ballet flats. This floral blazer and studded shoe combo looks fierce and girly at the same time—the perfect mix.

…with leggings

Boyfriend blazers can be just as comfortable as your favorite sweatshirt, and pairing them with a pair of leggings means ultimate coziness without sacrificing any style! Layer an oversized blazer over your fave graphic tee and you’ll look effortlessly put-together. Lace up some combat boots and complete this cool-girl uniform.

MOD! MOD! MOD!
I have a navy blue/black blazer. How do I wear it with a plaid skirt. I want to look preppy.

 

Hey transform3214, I love the preppy look. Depending on what colors are in the plaid skirt, you could wear a white button up or white or grey tank underneath the blazer. For shoes go for flats, boots or converse. Don't forget accessories. Hope this helps! Xoxo

I have a grey and black stripped blazer, i plan to wear it with some jeans, what kind of shirt should i wear? or if i wear it with some bright skinny jeans? Thanks!

 

Hey foodiejr99, oh that blazer sounds really cute! Yep it would look stylish with jeans and a grey, black or white shirt. The only colored jeans I think would look good with it is a pair of red jeans.Try different bottoms on and see what you like best. Hope this helps! Xoxo

so tomorrow the high is 69 degrees and it's supposed rain almost all day. what should i wear? thanks!

 

Hey girlie, what about a pair of skinny jeans with a cute top and a sweater? I always have trouble with the bottom of my jeans getting wet in the rain, and skinny jeans help prevent that some. And if it's warm in your classrooms you can take off the sweater or keep it on if you're a little chilly. Don't forget your rain coat or umbrella!
