Welcome to The Essentials, our weekly series highlighting a must-have classic, key to building a timeless, pulled-together closet.

Recently, traditional workwear has been turned on its head as many of us embrace the work-from-home life. Still, equipping yourself with smart-looking and hard-working essential pieces like a fitted blazer is always a good idea. You may be rocking cashmere joggers on the bottom, but you'll win best dressed on Zoom in a silk printed blouse and a flawless fitted blazer on top. On Saturdays, swap in a blazer in lieu of your bulky jacket to elevate weekend wear. The styling options are endless, from prepster monogrammed styles to a rock n' roll velvet look. Ahead, we've got 10 fitted blazers to wear pretty much all year long—and they're about to be the MVP of your wardrobe.

1. Smythe Single Button Tartan Blazer

Throw this single-button tartan blazer over a form-fitting turtleneck and jeans. The print and color combo offers a statement-making option that doesn't look totally OTT.

2. Maggie Marilyn Belted Blazer

This feminine pink blazer will give your waist shape with its built- in sash that can be tied one of several ways. Try it pulled into a loose bow towards the front, back, or on the hip. Consider investing in the matching pants for a punchy head-to-toe look.
