One versatile blue blazer can transform your wardrobe with three polished looks! Here are my thoughts on how to wear a blue blazer.
I am back to Asheville after spending a few days in Orlando visiting my Dad. I will post more about the trip on Monday, but for now it is just good to be home.
One of the best parts about the trip was the dreamy weather. I got back to Asheville and it was still pretty nice for a few hours and then it started turning cold fast. It feels like ice outside now. I miss fall already.
BRRR!!!
Anyone else cold right now?
But I digress. Let’s talk beautiful blue blazers and how to wear them. They are perfect for colder weather. I think every girl should have a couple good neutral blazers in their closet and even some colorful ones.
This royal blue blazer is one of my favorites because of it’s slim but, scrunchy sleeves and rich color. It is a clearance buy from Dillard's a few years back. I wanted to show you how a classic piece can stand the test of time.
Option one is a contrasting red dress. This look is great for the office and it paired with red suede heals. I bring in the color with the accessories.
The obvious choice is a more neutral dress, but I challenge you to pair colors together! You have to be careful doing this, but it can look very trendy and current if you find the correct pieces.

Jacket: Dillard's similar here
Shoes: BCBG
The second option is a casual look with skinny jeans and a black shell. Black flats round out the outfit for an easy, but polished look.

Shell: White House Black Market
Jeans: Hudson, similar here
Shoes: Juil
The third option to wear the blue blazer takes the look through the evening. A fun shorter dress, paired with tights and tall boots make this perfect for date night.

These are great ideas. I really need to find a nice fitting blazer (one that doesn't have "man shoulders").

So cute! I don't own any blazers but this makes me want to get one, and definitely in a color! Love the look with jeans.

So cute and such great ideas! I am always so uninspired when it comes to blazers (though I own a few)...now I know how to actually wear them!
JulieWunder says
Thanks Ann Marie! Great to see you here!
Nicole @ Fitful Focus says
I only own black and beige blazers (you know, the typical) but I am IN LOVE with this bright blue one! I'm a bright color kinda gal, so I might have to look into getting some funky blazers. Love how you put it together. Thanks for linking up! xoxo

Julie, you look fabulous in all 3 outfits. I too love blazers, Several years ago I started wearing them to work with different skirts and tights and co-workers coined it the "Linda Look". Glad to see it's still in vogue. Keep showing us those great styles that you put together. Love reading your blog every day. You're doing a great job!
JulieWunder says
You are absolutely still in vogue. I classic pairing never goes out of style 🙂
Thanks for reading Linda. I really appreciate your support.
Melissa @ Freeing Imperfections says
I love all these looks! I really want a colored blazer, I only have black ones now. A blazer and jeans is so cute to me.
JulieWunder says
Thanks Melissa! I bet they work great for you right now b/c you can wear them open through the pregnancy?
Mary Beth Jackson says
The blazer is perfect for Florida! You did a great job with the 3 pairings! Option #1 is super nice for work and I love the third for an evening out!
JulieWunder says
Thanks Mary Beth!

Welcome back! You're speaking my language with blazers! I have so many of them and they never fail and pretty much never go out of style. I love the classic pairings--a button down and trousers or a pencil skirt. And lately, I'm having fun with the casual and funky look of a blazer with *the right* graphic t-shirt and pencil skirt or skinny jeans. I feel so hip and trendy 😉
JulieWunder says
I should have thought of that one (graphic tee!) I could be "hip" too. 🙂 I think it is all such a classic look!
Jenny says
Yes you can--you ARE hip! 🙂

I'm glad you enjoyed some time in Florida with your dad.
I like all 3 options with the blue blazer but my favorite is the last shot : black dress and boots.
