Consider it the ultimate fuss-free layering piece.


Consider the oversized blazer a fuss-free essential. Whether it's your own or stolen straight out of your S.O.'s closet, this borrowed-from-the-boys, boxy silhouette is an elevated addition to any outfit. It can be thrown over a mini dress to step up your weekend attire, worn as a suit with matching trousers for an office look, or layered over thin knits with stellar denim and gold jewelry for a trendy take. This wardrobe staple is here for you no matter your style preference, from bright and girly to sleek and edgy. Scroll down and check out our top picks to add to your collection.
The Frankie Shop blazers have taken over Instagram, and if you haven't seen these tagged in every other post this is your wake-up call. The oversized shape is a laid-back and minimal take that can be paired with their matching trousers or any of your favorite dresses.
The '70s called and they want their blazer back. The relaxed fit, padded shoulders, and rich forest green shade has us rummaging through our parents' attic to find more gems. Wear this blazer as a suit with its matching trousers and a chic white blouse.
