While there may be no shortcut to thriving in the girl boss era (we're all struggling to keep up), there is definitely a reliable shortcut to dressing like one: wearing a blazer. With several origin stories in fashion history, the blazer is the offspring of a formal suit jacket and a casual sports jacket, offering a high level of versatility that allows it to be paired with nearly anything. Less structured yet always conveying a sense of 'business,' blazers are a must-have. If you've been on the hunt for the perfect blazer and are seeking inspiration on how to style it, here is your ultimate styling guide.

LBB Pro Tip: Check out our list of types of blazers here to know which one would work the best for you. 

How To Choose The Right Blazer

Fit is the most important aspect of choosing a blazer, so here are some key considerations to help you find the right fit for you:

Shoulders: Ensure that the shoulder seam ends at your actual shoulders for the best fit.

Length: For a more appealing and sharper look, the length of the blazer should be either longer than the widest point of your body or shorter. This helps create a structured silhouette.

Sleeve Length: The sleeves of your blazer should end just above your thumb joint. This ensures functionality while maintaining a sharp, tailored appearance.

Double-Breasted vs. Single-Breasted: Double-breasted blazers make more of a statement with their wider closure and parallel buttons, while single-breasted blazers offer a classic, everyday option.

The Classic Jeans

Styling your blazer with jeans is the most reliable and bankable method to serve fashion goals like a girl boss. However, you need to make sure that you pair it with the right kind of jeans and footwear so that the overall flow and the balance of the structure do not fall through. We recommend going with flared or mom jeans, paired with a classic white tee inside, just like influencer Amy Rowley has worn.

Style Your Blazer As A Dress

For a chic look, we recommend going for an oversized blazer and tights, accessorised with a solid pair of boots. To give a structure to the fit, you can add a belt to cinch your waist, and accessories with minimal jewellery, just like creator Ishita Sandhu has done. Wear it to parties or formal events, and you are bound to turn heads!

Add More Edge With A Skirt

To channel the effortless elegance with a side of edge, pairing skirts and blazers together is a great idea. Like influencer Shannon Grace Ella, you can direct this look into a sportier spectrum with some great pairs of sneakers, a solid bag, and some cool shades. We also recommend going for a single-breasted blazer with this look, to make it more casual, but stunning.

Use It To Colour Block

Contrary to popular belief, blazers don't have to be formal or dull. They can be a fantastic way to colour block, as shown by Kathryn Lucy's look. The bright pink oversized blazer paired with a vibrant orange tube top creates a playful contrast. She complements the outfit with a comfortable pair of jeans, making it perfect for a workday or an event. This approach allows you to infuse more of your personality into your blazer ensembles.

A Black Dress Goes With Everything

A black dress is a wardrobe staple and pairing it with a blazer is a fantastic idea. This look is perfect for formal occasions, adding a touch of modesty to your statement dress while still looking cool and chic. Blogger Geogenia Patient has offset the formal nature of the outfit with a pair of relaxed sliders, making it more versatile for daytime wear.

Leather Pants For Fall

If every fall you seek style inspiration for your leather pants, consider pairing them with a blazer this summer. Keep your T-shirt minimal and basic and do the same with your blazer for a classy look. The leather pants will serve as the focal point, so balance the outfit with understated elements, just as Hannah Hudson has done.
