How to wear a blazer: 5 suggestions for unique blazer outfits!
The blazer is undoubtedly one of the most essential pieces in a woman's wardrobe. With strong masculine references, it is a passe-partout garment that can be worn with the same ease in the office, on city strolls, or at a formal evening outing. It's what we call... a girl's best friend!
There are several scenarios for their naming, and we won't get into that debate. What is certain is that they have a direct relationship with the sea and the nautical style, and for many years they were associated with naval crews and later with the uniforms of top universities such as Yale and Harvard.
However, in recent years, they have established themselves as a timeless women's piece that steals the show every time they appear in public.
So, here are five suggestions for complete looks with the blazer as the main protagonist to inspire you and easily adopt it into your daily life.
#1. With leggings and loafers
This is a suggestion that can easily get you out of the style dilemma: "what should I wear today"! In this case, you will need your favorite blazer, a pair of leggings, a pair of loafers, and on top of that, anything that makes you feel beautiful. A loose-fitting shirt, an oversized striped shirt, a relaxed turtleneck; everything looks equally right and stylish. We don't need to elaborate on the level of comfort, you can suspect it!
#2. With jeans and a white t-shirt
It may sound like a classic combination that fits every moment of the day, but if you take care of the small details that make the difference, you can elevate it. For example, if the jeans are slightly flared and you pair them with a pair of boots with a square heel, it will have a completely different look than if you pair it with a mommy's fit jeans and ballerinas. Feminine and dynamic approach for the first outfit, elegant and timeless for the second. In other words, let your imagination be free to be influenced by your mood.
#3. With baggy pants and sneakers
This combination might describe Hailey Bieber's outfits now that I think about it. But we all have a little bit of that girl inside us. It's an ideal proposal for the weekends and more casual occasions. To achieve a nice silhouette, the only thing you need to pay attention to is the top you will wear underneath the blazer. You should choose a top with a more fitted cut to achieve a perfect balance with the bottom, which is more baggy. Then, you will be ready to enjoy the result.
#4. With a dress and boots
The blazer does not have preferences between short and longer dresses, slim or wider lines, because it simply matches every style. To differentiate the final result, simply emphasize the boots with which you will complete the outfit. If you choose riding boots or flat boots with laces or a chunky sole, it will have a more morning and casual feel. On the contrary, a pair of boots with high heels and a feminine silhouette will easily accompany you to more evening and "demanding" occasions.
#5. With leather pants and turtleneck
We have seen this look circulating a lot on IG and rightfully so. Our French friends have found the magical recipe to wear their favorite blazer with leather pants, a turtleneck, and ballerinas or loafers, serving us the perfect Parisian chic style that we all love. A combo that, when paired with high heels, completely changes its appearance and becomes effortlessly feminine, automatically becoming your favorite winter outfit. The choice is in your hands.
Extra tips:
- How to choose the right size blazer?
Pay attention to the fit of the blazer. Oversized may be in fashion, but it doesn't require exaggeration. One size larger than usual, sleeve length that reaches the middle of the thumb - when your arms are straight and relaxed by your sides - comfort that allows you to make all movements, even if you choose to wear a sweatshirt or sweater underneath, make the perfect foundation.
- What is the right length for a blazer?
To avoid unpleasant surprises and have the top you wear underneath the blazer protrude, make sure its length covers part of the hips. This way, you can be sure that nothing will go wrong and you will be free to wear whatever you want!
- Think classic
If you are about to get your first blazer now, think classic/conservative in the choice you will make. Choose one in a minimal design, with good quality, in a neutral shade (black, dark gray, or navy blue) and avoid anything more "eccentric". It's nice for your wardrobe to have timeless pieces that you can wear again and again with many different styles of outfits.
