Style Tip: When choosing a blazer:

• make sure it is flattering for your body type. Pay attention to cut, length, and placement of the buttons.
• Because this is a staple item, YOU NEED TO INVEST!!! Purchase the best quality you can afford!! This is sooo important.
• make sure you can button the blazer, even though you prefer to keep it open! If you can’t close it, it is not the right fit!!
• the sleeves should fall at the heel of your hand
• If you find the perfect blazer and it is a little too big, GET IT TAILORED!!! Nothing looks sleeker and stylish than a tailored blazer!

2. Pair a black blazer with some color.

Go bold with your favorite color and balance out the look with a blazer!

Style tip: If you are allowed to wear jeans to work, always choose a darker wash. Lighter washes can come off as too casual.

3. Printed anything and a black blazer.

It is all about balance!!! Use the blazer to tone down and balance the print!

Style Tip: Remeber to always regard print with discretion. You do not want it to be too loud or distracting when you are at work.

4. Try a black blazer with joggers/ pajama pants.

Did she just say pajama and jogging pants?? I sure did, but not the ones you wear to the gym or wear to bed! This may be a bit out there for some of you to fathom, but it’s all about HOW you style things. Remember this post is about FUN ways to wear a black blazer for work not boring ways!!

Style Tip: It is preferable to always wear a closed toe shoe for work. Switch out the shoes in this picture for a pair of pumps and you have a stylish outfit for work.
