Blazers in all shapes and colors

I think the easiest way to make any outfit chic is throwing on a blazer. I love how it brings a touch of masculinity and at the same time flatter any shape. Oh and you know how much I love things that are versatile. You can wear them with shorts, pants, leggings, skirts, you name it!

I love the way Selena wore it with a corset top and simple black pants.

Love this style...and that jacket!

The detailing on this blazer makes me swoon. It's unexpected and stunning.

Yes that's lace... I had to wipe some drool off my face before I posted this.

One of my favorite types of blazers are jersey. They are as comfy as sweats but they sure don't look like them.

I find that for blazers the fit matters. Okay all your clothes should fit you but sometimes you can fudge it with the other stuff. Like you don't always buy petite jeans because you can roll them up or just have them hemmed. But you can't exactly do that to a blazer. The shoulders need to fit snugly and be careful if it's too loose, you lose shape and then it just looks frumpy. If it's too tight it will look like you stole it from your baby sister. Look for a curved seam on the side if you want a slimmer and more structured look. 

I have my eye on this one here

  7. The blazer has become my go-to piece for every possible situation. School day, public speaking contest, whatever. I have been wearing a lot of darker styles but the bright pink one looks absolutely awesome. Gotta think about it. Thanks for the inspiration!
