Happy Monday everyone! I am back from fashion week and officially trying to get back in my normal schedule! I had a great time, and I cannot wait to tell you all about it. I shared a little more personal take on one of my recent Instagrams if you want to see. I got to shoot a couple looks while there with the amazing Angie Garcia that I am excited to share with you soon (the IG is also a post of one of my looks). In each post I’ll include details about the day. In the meantime, today’s post is all about a modern way to style a blazer.
If you’re like me, sometimes blazers seem very formal. They are however, always classic and actually super flattering! When Banana Republic sent me this grey windowpane blazer, I immediately envisioned it as a post-work, transitional look. You could easily wear this cami and blazer to work with a pencil skirt or slacks and then swap it out for the coated skinnies I am wearing. Can we just pause for a moment and talk about coated skinnies?! I bought these several seasons ago and I still consider them one of my favorite pieces. They are so flattering. The slight sheen just does something for your legs. Here’s a super similar pair. Take my advice and order ASAP. Pair with a leg lengthening heel for even more umph.

Such a classic look! I would wear this not only to work, but also for a night out! I love blazers and agree that they can look too formal, but because they flatter everybody, it’s hard not to reach for one. Love the bag too. I’m on the hunt for a nice black satchel.
Your outfit is so cute! You look lovely 🙂 xx

I love blazers with a pair of skinny jeans! It’s the perfect after work or casual Friday look!
Glad to hear you had fun in NY! I loved your instagram post because I’m sure a lot of people feel the exact same way (they’re just not willing to voice it). Kudos to you for being open and honest! I love the BR blazer. Blazers are having such a major moment right now and I’m loving it! Such a versatile and timeless piece!
