A tailored blazer can add an element of finesse to any wardrobe. This fall, blazers are getting a bit of a modish update; classic fabrics with shiny twill accents, brown hues of cream and khaki, and modern cuts with strong shoulders. To ensure optimal use of your tailored blazer, here are a few ideas of how to dress them up (or down) for any day to night look.Look for a blazer that modernizes classic fabrics in both color and shape. A dark cotton blazer with a tinge of sheen looks great paired with either a basic crew neck t-shirt and deep-v cardigan for a casual look or a crisp white button up (no tie required) for night. The evening look should be topped off with a pocket square that will make you look trѐs chic.
A khaki, cream or brown tweed blazer will look amazing paired with various hues of light blue. When it comes to tie options a plain navy tie is sure to stand out atop of a blue button up and will balance out the brown of your tailored blazer. This is a great look for fall, spring and summer, which is great when you aren’t looking to break the bank.
If you want to play with color this fall, by all means do. A mens white blazer makes a statement in spring, but during fall a colored blazer will do the trick. Whether velvet or cotton a bold green, violet or a vibrant cerulean blue will make a wave among your social circle, make sure to play with patterns to give that bold playfulness an appropriate shove into the right direction. A polo shirt that has a playful pattern or a button up that presents texture, pairs great especially when in the same color scheme as the tailored blazer.
Don’t compromise being well-dressed for the sake of casual dress. Look dapper all day long with these simple day to nighttime tailored blazer looks.
