Choose a blazer that fits nicely, but isn’t too tight, when you button it up. It should be comfortable around the back and the arms, but also tailored so that you don’t lose your shape in it.

I like a super long collar – it adds some height! It also helps to find a blazer that looks just as great undone as it does buttoned up. Look at your blazer from all angles in the store mirrors when you are thinking about purchasing, to check that it looks fantastic from all angles.

A light blazer is a versatile piece to wear as your jacket in the summer, or under your coat in the winter. You don’t want anything too heavy to overwhelm your frame!

Look for a blazer that can be worn with a variety of outfits. From dresses to pants to skirts, you want your blazer to be something you can match with a number of outfits in your wardrobe!
