How to Style a Boyfriend Blazer

Boyfriend blazer and jeans

Blazers seem to be having a bit of a comeback. Sure, they’ve always been a staple for the work wardrobe. But now, more people are styling them creatively with jeans, skirts and dresses. I love a great fitted blazer, but I also wanted to share how to style a boyfriend blazer. “Boyfriend” just means longer, and maybe a little oversized. I styled mine with a cropped top and high-waisted jeans. This way, my waist is still defined, despite the longer length of the blazer. Getting back into wearing jeans postpartum has been a little challenging, but I’m trying new styles. These are more of a straight leg than skinny (which is apparently “cooler” now), and curvy fit. I love that more denim brands are catering to different sizes and shapes.

If you look around, you may notice that the blog looks a bit different. I’ve been making some cosmetic changes, and there’s more in the works. I’m also planning to start sending out a (mostly) weekly newsletter, and I’ll be sure to share the sign-up link as soon as it’s ready. I really enjoy sharing my outfits and my life here, and I want to make it as enjoyable and accessible as possible for you. Leave a comment or send me an email if there’s something you want to see more of here. Thanks, as always, for your support!
