How To Wear A Black Blazer Six Ways

One of the most classic pieces in my wardrobe is the black blazer. My trusty old favourite was a little black jacket I had from Zara. However when moving house recently I threw away a lot of clothes that just didn’t fit anymore and sadly this was one of them. So the hunt was on again for a black blazer and that’s when Warehouse’s longline black blazer came into my life.

This Warehouse blazer is a perfect wardrobe essential. I love the longline cut, being taller it’s hard to find something that isn’t always riding up so this was perfect. I also like the three-quarter length sleeves and the light fabric, which makes it an ideal blazer for Spring/Summer and even now I can wear it under a coat for extra warmth. Just to show how much an essential a black blazer is I have styled it up six different ways; Sports Luxe, Casual Work, Dinner Date, Day Casual, Day To Night & Party Time.

Sports Luxe – I am not usually one for a sporty look, but when I put this together I was pretty much sold on wearing it everyday! Here I am wearing the Warehouse blazer with an Agi & Sam x Evian tee, the comfiest Forever 21 joggers and Saint Laurent sneakers.

Casual Work – Denim is a big trend this season. I have teamed the blazer with a Forever 21 denim shirt dress, tights and F&F patent heels (now on sale!).

Dinner Date – You can’t beat teaming a nice dress with a black blazer. This outfit is an ASOS dress and New Look black court shoes.

Day Casual – A blazer works so well for dressing down too. Wear it with denims and a white tee with ease. I am wearing Topshop white t-shirt, ASOS ridley jeans, H&M necklace and ASH boots.

Day To Night – This look is easy to master with a blazer. Wear sequins for day with a tee like this one from Fashion Union and the blazer just helps to tone it down slightly. Black jeans from ASOS and the shoes are silver metallic flats from Forever 21.

Party Time – An ideal piece to accompany a party outfit. Here I am wearing the Warehouse blazer with a Missguided t-shirt and rose gold metallic mini skirt and a pair of New Look suede black court shoes.
