Our 3 fave ways to wear a blazer

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.
