The boyfriend blazer is this seasons hottest trend. Not only is it a splash of sophistication added to any outfit, but it also looks absolutely fabulous.
Celebrities like Kim Kardashian, Lauren Conrad, and Blake Lively have made this trend a staple for any wardrobe.
You can wear the boyfriend blazer with almost every outfit. It looks best with either a mini dress, a long top with leggings, or skinny jeans. You should also roll up the sleeves to just about the elbow. Usually boyfriend blazers are lined with some sort of silk in the sleeves so that when you do roll them up, the silk and pattern is visible.
Although this look can work with most body types, you must be aware of the shape of the blazer.
If you purchase a boyfriend blazer that doesn’t look feminine, it can take away from your own curves. The blazer should be taken in at the waist without the use of a belt. Because its looser on the bottom, and usually has distinct shoulders, your waistline should be exaggerated and shown to be as small as it is.
The worst thing a woman can do to her body is hide her waistline or make it look bigger than it really is. Most women don’t even realize what great curves they have, regardless of their shape. Items like the boyfriend blazer can help accentuate your waistline.
