The Colorful Blazer

Submitted by Mimi on Friday, 10 April 200925 Comments

Spring is a perfect time to be a little (or a LOT) more adventurous and try some new, bold colors.
One Spring/Summer staple that I recommend every woman to have in their wardrobe arsenal is a colorful blazer. Whether cropped, well tailored or oversized, doesn’t really matter, as long as it’s bright and colorful! It is sure to look flattering against your tanned skin… You can wear it casually with jeans or to dress up any outfit, or with trousers and a white button down to work. In fact, it might also come in handy in the winter, as you can take it with you on hot spot vacations, to wear it over a dress in the evening, when it gets a bit chilly. The options are really unlimited, so I would suggest getting a few in different colors for extra options.

Oh I absolutely love the yellow blazer! (Sigh) If only I could pull of yellow without looking ghastly ill, haha. The blue blazer is quite beautiful, as well, though.

Thanks for your comment, are you are too, too sweet! And yes, I still hope to move to NYC, as soon as I can! Right now though I want to get the online business up and running before I would move.

Hope you having a lovely weekend, dear! <3
