Well I was prompted to write about Boyfriend Blazers since
the day has been a bit cold and the first stylish attire that I could think of in the
morning to keep me warm is one of my Boyfriend Blazers. Initially, so the name
suggests, they were a bit long and used to look like male blazers. With time, the
designs changed and currently we have Boyfriend Blazers that are actually above
the hips as well as fitting as opposed to the original ones that were below the
hips and a bit bulky.
Needless to say, I like the versatility that Boyfriend Blazers
bring since they look good with all body types and sizes. Plus they actually
emphasize your figure especially for the one-buttoned ones. They pass for an ‘any
time of the day’ attire, whether for a coffee date with the gals, or a night
out or even for running errands.
So how do I rock my Boyfriend Blazers?
I prefer my Boyfriend Blazers fitting, neither too big nor
too small. Being petite, I wouldn't wish to look like I have literary borrowed
my boyfriend’s blazer. Plus having an oversize blazer can make one look bulky.
I also prefer rolling up my sleeves and if the sleeves of the blazer have
pretty details or are coloured, folding them up also does my look some good justice.
Boyfriend Blazers can basically be worn on top of most tops
for example, on fitting tees, on a tank top, on a blouse,on a spaghetti top, on a camisole e.t.c. They
can be worn with skinny jeans, leggings, shorts, mini dresses, tights etc. Distressed
denims for example bring out that chic yet trendy look. Simply cute!
I never leave my jewellery when doing my Boyfriend Blazers
so as to bring out that edgy ‘I am Tweedy Look’. Chunky bangles, necklaces,
earrings and those cocktail rings…..any time. However I don’t over do the jewellery
and I make sure the colours blend so as not to look confused. If my attire is
neutral, as in fewer details, I do colourful jewellery and vice versa. And with
the current cold weather for example, I find myself throwing on a scarf and
of course in this case I will limit the chunky necklaces.
Shoes: These will depend on the bottom outfit. I am mostly
in high-heel slip on sandals since I find them comfy and ready to go. However Boyfriend
Jackets look good with any shoes….gladiators, pumps, flat sandals, peep toes,
wedges. Just how you match them is what matters.
And finally, I find myself mix matching my official pants or
my pencil skirts with a Boyfriend Blazer too and am off to work. Truth be told
Boyfriend Blazers can be rocked in many ways.
I don’t know whether Boyfriend Blazers are here to stay but
I just love them
;-)
