I love blazers. I own several (including six corduroy blazers). I’m participating in the 30 for 30 challenge and I made sure to include a couple of blazers in the mix. I plan to wear them with skirts, jeans, dress pants, you name it. My Joe’s Jeans tan corduroy blazer will make an appearance soon, I promise. But for the Everybody, Everywear Blazer Challenge, I decided to go with my favorite thrifted Laundry by Shelli Segal blazer. It has a hot pink lining; I made it one-of-a-kind by adding a bit of creative sewing machine stitching at the bottom seams. I like the mix of masculine and feminine that a blazer brings to an outfit. I feel instantly pulled together when I throw a blazer over a tank top and jeans. Heels and jewelry keep the outfit from getting too boyish.
Blazer: Laundry by Shelli Segal (thrifted)
Tank top: Old Navy
Jeans: The Gap
Shoes: Seychelle’s
Necklace: Gifted
I love the way you’ve styled your blazer! Very sleek. And your haircut is fantastic.
You are so right about the balance of the blazer. It really does pull an outfit together, but like you I like to ensure that I keep some feminine elements.
I want to see some of that pink lining!

You look lithe and lean and beautiful. Classic lines, and color combo make you look professional without looking too uptight. Great outfit.
