4 Ways to Style Blazers
I have been a fan of blazers ever since I started thrifting. They are a timeless and effortless way to spruce up any outfit. I got my first blazer at the thrift store for $6.99 and the collection has only grown from there. Here are some of the ways I style my blazers.
Pop of colour
I love how this pop of red brings a new vibrance to an otherwise neutral outfit! The red blazer brings out the other red details from my outfit like on the scarf and my shoes. I got the blazer from the thrift store ($10.99), t-shirt from Simons ($19.99), trousers from thrift store ($8.99), scarf from Urban Planet ($12.99), and Reeboks from Winners ($49.99). Overall, this is a great outfit for when you don’t want to put too much effort but still want to look like you did!
2. Monochrome boss babe
Ah, don’t we love a monochromatic look! As I have mentioned in other posts, a monochrome look is the easiest way to look put together no matter what the style of outfit. Here I went for a boardroom boss babe look with my thrifted black blazer ($11.99), black mock-neck long-sleeve from Simons ($29.99), favourite black trousers ($6.49), and black boots from Le Château (they were a gift). This look could easily swap out the boots for heels for a more polished look.
3. Graphic tees, please

I love this look! The blue from the blazer is complemented by the tone of the denim. Similar to the first look, this look uses a graphic tee to make the look that much more casual as well as giving some more visual interest. Here, I am wearing a thrifted blue blazer (compliments of my boyfriend’s closet), a Steamboat Willie t-shirt from Uniqlo ($19.99), the best-fitting jeans I’ve ever worn from Old Navy ($39.99), and my god-sent loafers from the thrift store ($10.99). The slicked-back ponytail and big sunnies give this look a little added class and drama. Perfect for a day out!
4. 70’s vibes

I love this look because all the colours vibe so nicely together. The warm tones definitely give off a 70’s vibe. Here, I am wearing a thrifted plaid blazer ($12.99), brown turtleneck from Plato’s Closet ($7.99), my go-to beige trousers ($8.99), and I wore this look with my regular Reebok sneakers. Since this look gave me 70’s, I decided to put on my Movement glasses from Eyebuydirect.
Those are my blazers! They are definitely a favourite of mine when it comes to layering as they provide such a diversity of looks.
