How to Style a Blazer | Outfits for Springs and Summer
Flatter your figure fast when you wear blazers outfits. Outfits with blazers are always better. This is how to style a blazer for spring and summer. It’s not surprising that a blazer is my New Wardrobe Checklist’s best-selling closet essential. Blazers work great with flare jeans, dresses, as part of a suit, or with shorts. Choose one for your capsule wardrobe for work, casual, and travel capsule wardrobes.
BLAZER OUTFITS WITH FLARE JEANS
I shared that adding some flare-leg jean outfits was one of the fastest ways to update your 2022 wardrobe. This year, long and short flare-leg jean styles are still popular. Pair the designer jeans in your closet with a cool lightweight blazer, an easy top, and sneakers or sandals. Keep reading to see 5 new high-low blazers and flare jean outfits for spring and summer.

BLAZERS OUTFITS WITH DRESSES
This looks comes from the March Nordstrom 6 Drop when I style a fit-and-flare dress with a white Khloe blazer. Blazers are the best layering pieces over a dress because they flatter your figure and still cover your arms. Try a traditional tailored style, like the Veronica Beard “Miller”, that nips at the waist even when it’s not buttoned. A less structured longer style works over a dress too. Try belting it at your natural waist. Get a recent round-up of flattering white dresses to wear with blazers here, and pretty pattern dresses I dedicated to them.
BLAZERS AND SHORTS SUITS
This two-piece lavender linen blazer under $100 and matching shorts from Nordstrom are still available. I got mine last year and just wore it again this weekend. A suit like this is great for travel too. I took mine to San Diego, Ca. Check out some of the summer blazer outfits I made with it on my trip, using just a few pieces.
