The Do's and Don'ts of the Boyfriend Blazer


Do wear them with leggings/jeggings (read about jeggings here).

Don't actually wear your boyfriend's blazers- they'll probs look too boxy!

Do wear them with skinny jeans.

Express Long Boyfriend Jacket, $79.50

Don't wear them with wide-legs or flares. Think proportions people.

Do wear it with a tunic to class is up.


Do wear them with dress shirts. I heart menswear.

Do wear them with frilly and flow-y tops. Tres trendy.

Do wear them with booties and platform heels.

Do wear them with flats to work or out, give your feet a
break.


Elizabeth and James Core Blazer, $395

Don't wear them with high boots unless it's a cropped version. Doing so will break up your proportions the wrong way and shorten your legs. Unless you are a giant like me.

Do roll up the sleeves if it has a white lining.


Do push up the sleeves onto your forearms. Very cool right meow.

Do accessorize with lots of jewelry to femme up the ensemble. Think big collar necklaces like these.
