Outfits Post 2: Black Blazer

If you are a career woman or a college girl about to enter the corporate world, BLACK BLAZER should be a staple in your wardrobe.

Black blazer is like a miracle piece because it can dress up any outfit. Wear a potato sack and put on a black blazer, voila! you look like a million bucks:)

 #1 Black Blazer for the interview
Many professionals recommend a neutral colored suit for interviews but I always recommend a black blazer+pants suit for interviews. Compared to other neutrals like gray, navy, and brown I find black sleeker, sexier, and also generates a very powerful image.

Note: Here the blazer and pants are actually jet black even though the camera has faded the color a bit.


#2 Black Blazer + Fitted pants
Now that you've got the job, putting a stylish outfit together every morning can be very strenuous. Thats when the black blazer + skinny pants duo come to rescue.

 

Guess blazer, Guess skinny jeans, Steve Madden heels, Don't know the brand names of the tops but you get the idea... and make sure they match your shoes.


#3 Black blazer casual
So after eight hours of hard work you definitely want to reward yourself by going out with your friends/ colleagues for a small drink, or to a family gathering, or to a birthday party, even to a business casual event. Now do you have to go back to your closet and put together a whole new outfit? no, because you can dress down the black blazer to a stylish, sleek, super cute casual outfit.

Tops I bought online but don't know the brands. But see how versatile the blazer is, goes with both leopard print and floral:)

The black blazer apparently goes with everything. So get out there and invest on some black blazers. I know many girls have tight budgets but I highly highly highly recommend spending at least $150 and buying a good quality blazer. Guess has quality blazers for moderate prizes and if you can afford it, go for Isabel Marant. Their blazers are stylish, durable, and are definitely statement pieces.
