MY VERONICA BEARD BLAZERS REVIEW | ARE THEY WORTH IT?

Whether you dress up every day or your lifestyle is very casual a Veronica Beard Blazer is worth every penny. A Veronica beard blazer is the perfect layer for all of your winter looks. There is a reason why I think it’s the most flattering blazer for all body types size 00-24. The Veronica Beard Miller Blazer is my quality go-to blazer when I want to make a high-low look work. It’s also the cornerstone to some of my most popular capsule wardrobe checklists including this #streetstyle capsule that makes 72 outfits inspired by what we actually wear. Often times the best investment pieces for our wardrobes never go on sale. Besides your estimated cost per wear, I’ll show you where to save when you’re ready to buy this blazer and what color combination will be the best.

WHY I SUGGEST THIS BLAZER MORE THAN ANY OTHER

This blazer is the most flattering blazer for all body types and a piece you want to have in your wardrobe to pull a casual or dress outfit together. Veronica Beard’s tailored Miller style comes with shoulder pads, an exaggerated cutaway, a deep stance, and perfectly placed pockets that all help to define your waist. Because the Miller is only 26″ long you can layer her over anything, including a midi dress or cropped wide-leg jeans without disrupting your proportions.

Watch this video on Instagram to see the “Miller” on my 5’8″ size 10 friend Natalia and me.

The Miller is my quality go-to blazer when I want to make a high-low look work.

VERONICA BEARD BLAZERS CAPSULES AND OUTFIT IDEAS

You’ll find lots of blazer outfits in my Ageless ’22 Spring Capsule Wardrobe  Classic Fashion Capsule Wardrobe, and my newest Street Style Capsule Wardrobe. I also shared 5 easy Veronica Beard blazer outfit formulas in THIS POST FROM OCT 2021 that you can still use.

What’s a Dickey?

A dickey is a streamlined insert that zips into the lapel of your blazer to make it look like you’re wearing another layer. This is great if you like a layered look, but run warm or don’t want to bulk up your arms.

WHERE TO BUY VERONICA BEARD BLAZERS

Not at the Home Depot which was the location I chose for my Ageless ’22 Spring Capsule Wardrobe, but you can get one through my website. The year-round black and navy fabrications never go on sale. Check all of these major retailers including Saks, Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, and Shopbop before you buy. They all offer free shipping and returns. Also, sometimes you can time your purchase with a loyalty program promotion like triple points or friends and family. If you’ve never made a purchase from Veronica Beard’s website new customers can save 15% off your purchase when you provide your email address.

Should I Get Gold Or Silver Buttons?

So you’ve finally decided to buy a Veronica beard blazer but you can’t decide on a color combo. This is what I suggest to everyone. Start with black. A navy is next. For the buttons choose whatever metallic you wear the most and remember if you have a two-tone jewelry capsule you can wear your new blazer with anything. It can be as simple as a pair of earrings or a pinky ring like the one I wear every day. A few pieces in your overall look will allow you to mix all the metallics in your outfit from your belt to the buckles on your boots.
