Blazers from Business to Bling
I have a few blazers in my closet that are great pieces for important business meetings or interviews because they add a professional feel to the day and can be paired with the perfect fitting trousers to make an unbeatable power outfit. But I like to get the most out of every article of clothing tucked away in my closet so I can create as many diverse ensembles as possible. The blazer can be transformed to accommodate all your wardrobe needs, you just need to know the proper way to accessorize it!
If you’re going to lunch with some friends or meeting your boyfriends’ parents for brunch and need a look that’s both casual and stylish, try pairing your blazer with a colorful fitted tee and your favorite print scarf. With this style, you can cover up your chest to keep it conservative without losing your personality and flair. Don’t be afraid to mix and match your wardrobe. Pairing jeans with a blazer or, say, a jean jacket with a pair of brown slacks can help you maximize your clothing potential and show off the great cut of your jackets. But for this particular look, I would not recommend wearing a heavy knit scarf with your blazer since it could make your upper half seem too bulky in combination with your jacket.
If you want a more glamorous nighttime vibe from your blazer, match it with a mini skirt and your highest heels to create an ultra chic appeal. Tuck a sparkling tank top into your skirt, throw your blazer on top and add some flashy earrings and you’re ready for the hottest club in town! The best about this nighttime ensemble is that if you start dancing and getting way too hot, you can strip off your jacket and you still have a fierce outfit to keep on partying. On the other hand, this look can be great if you are self-conscious about showing too much skin because your arms are covered while you get a chance to show off those gorgeous legs.
Need a new outfit to wear out on a date this weekend? Try mixing leggings, a glitzy tank, high heel boots and your trusty blazer! You’ll look formal and feisty and you can customize this outfit as much as you want with different tanks or boots to make it your own. And if you want to add some more bling, try a broach or pin on your lapel to keep things classy while adding even more sparkle! The possibilities are endless and you can always find more inspirations on design programs and fashion shows you see on Dish2u or other networks to make every outfit turn heads.
