how to wear blazers (this one is for you pudeler!)


So everyone knows that the boyfriend jacket/blazers are in right now. From the relax tuxedo look to embellishments and sequences this piece of clothing is very versatile from wearing. during the day to a night out. This was first a spring trend but carried to the fall, and still very fashionable now during winter. Blazers can be worn many different ways. Dark skinny jeans for the chic look/ night look. A more relax look can be with a lighter wash jean. I suggest wearing a looser shirt to balance the geometrical look of the blazer. You want to look relax and fashionable at the same time. Not like you are the CEO of a company which shouts out uptight. Long necklaces with simple flowy shirts look great with blazers! Pushing up the sleeves like Gweneth makes the blazer makes you look comfortable and more of a day look. As for college students this look lessens looking overdressed for class. Note: flats will elongate your legs versus wearing high boots during the winter. So for winter I suggest wearing ankle boots with blazers and jeans to keep your body proportional.

Great places to get blazers:Bloomingdales, Nordstroms, H&M, Macys, Saks, Express
I feel that forever 21's blazers has cuts aren't for everyone.
Hope that helps Pudeler! :) <3
