Fashion trends will fluctuate, but a classic blazer has proven to hold onto its timeless status. Practically everyone has a coveted blazer hanging in their closet. Worn during any season, a blazer is one item of clothing that remains constant in giving you a polished pulled, together look. My first blazer was cranberry colored; it was part of my high school uniform. I loved the preppy look. There were rocker girls in school that customized their uniforms by adding crazy buttons and pins. Even though I was only fifteen, it was then that a blazer became my closet staple. Blazers work miracles; there are several ways to style a blazer and function as outerwear. I am sharing Casual Blazer Outfit Ideas for Women below.
The Sophisticated Blazer
A sophisticated Blazer can be a dark navy or black, single or double-breasted. You can wear it over dresses, or with trousers and jeans. These are meant for more than just the office, too. They are chic and will take you from daytime to evening.
The Preppy Blazer
Right around autumn, we see blazers worn as lightweight jackets—a great way to stay stylish and warm. Tweeds and plaids are very popular, giving you a witty casual vibe. A plaid blazer is the epitome of fall fashion. They are an excellent option for those lingering Sunday brunches, shopping, or dinner with friends.
Athleisure Blazer
Otherwise known as the oversized boyfriend blazer, this style gives you a hip urban vibe. Here it’s all about what you layer underneath, such as sweaters and zip-up hoodies. These are best worn with baggie denim or jeans, or joggers.
Another trend that I must mention is pantsuits. Chic two-piece ensembles, otherwise known as pantsuits, are by no means ordinary looking. Instead, they are show-stopping sets in bright neon colors and shiny satin fabrics. These would be fun to wear to concerts and special events.
Being referred to as the third piece, blazers complete a look. Just by throwing on a blazer over jeans and sneakers, you take your outfit up a notch. If you are still determining the investment, a blazer is a continuous piece of clothing that will always have your back.

I love your plaid blazer with jeans! Great styling with sandals and the handbag complement it all perfectly! I’m inspired for fall fashion!

Hello Debbie,
Fall is my favorite time of year! I also love fall fashion. It’s nice to wear outer wear for fashionable looks rather than warmth. And plaid is always a welcome introduction to the season. I liked that this blazer was a lighter plaid color. Blazers are forever fashionable and will always be a wonderful way to elevate style.
Regards,
Nancy

My first blazer was my school uniform too, but it was a rather awful green color! I just bought a houndstooth blazer that I’m loving. I think a blazer, tee and jeans is the perfect weekend outfit. You’ve picked some really cute options xo Nipa
Nancy Weiss says
Oh goodness, if only those uniforms could tell a story about our adolescence, memories for certain, some good and some a bit embarrassing. Houndstooth is forever fashionable any time of year, so you made an excellent purchase. I will look forward to seeing you style it.
Regards,
Nancy
Trishy says
Great suggestions! I’ve promoted myself from blazer to cardigan lately.
Nancy Weiss says
Hello Trishy,
It’s nice to hear from you 🙂 I think both are great, but a blazer definitely elevates style. I think you will find yourself wearing your new blazer often.
All the Best,
Nancy
