There is one piece in my wardrobe I can’t live without.
Can you guess?
Mine is the blazer.
The long one, the shorter one, the one with buttons, the one without; the blazer is my go-to for just about every occasion and event. Especially when I am travelling. The blazer solves those decisions I don’t wish to spend making and whether I wear one over jeans, pants or a fuller skirt, I am happy.
Do you know that feeling when you put on a piece and it feels “Goldilocks” right?
I have this feeling when I wear a blazer. As much as I love all the other elements of fashion, the blazer is my bestie. I’m not counting accessories here, so shoes and bags are not included; they are a whole other story. There is something about a blazer to make me feel finished, even a less fitted style and I feel put together.
This time of year when the seasons are hovering the blazer comes into its own.
And the other burning question?
Can we have too many blazers? Absolutely not.
I can’t do without a pinstripe and then there is the velvet, not to mention the tuxedo style. So what about a one button, two buttons or three opening? Should we discuss length?
The truth about the blazer is simple. Wear it well and wear it often. xv
