Someone once said, “I have always believed that fashion was not only to make women more beautiful but also to reassure them, give them confidence.” And I couldn’t agree more. There is something about putting on a great outfit that makes you feel like you can take on the world.
For me, one of those power pieces is a blazer. Blazers are versatile and stylish, and most importantly, they make you feel like a badass boss. Whether you’re looking to add a professional edge to your boring office outfits, a fun and flirty look for a night out, or something in between, there’s a blazer outfit just for you.
So scroll down to find the best outfits with blazers women can rock at any time of the day! But first…lemme answer a few quick questions about the styling blazers.
What outfits go well with blazers?
If there’s one thing that goes well with almost everything, it’s a trusty blazer. Wear it with dresses, jeans, t-shirts, button-down shirts, skirts, shorts, or even athleisure to make those jaws drop!
What should you not wear with a blazer?
When it comes to blazers, the question isn’t so much WHAT to wear, but rather what NOT to wear. So let’s start by crossing busy prints off the list. It’s generally best to avoid wearing a lot of busy prints with a blazer, as this can create too much visual noise. Also, stay away from excessively tight or revealing clothing to maintain a flattering look.
So the best way to think about what to wear with a blazer is to pair it with classic, simple pieces that will let the blazer be the star of the show. For example, you could wear a solid-colored shirt and pants combo with a patterned blazer, or you could wear a simple dress or skirt with a basic turtle neck or long-sleeve top.
Now that you know a bit about how to style them…
let’s see live examples of blazer outfits that’ll set the stage ablaze!

What tops to wear under a blazer?
A blazer can add a very sophisticated layer to the outfit. But if the top under it does not match the vibe, you could easily create a flop outfit. Safer options are a classic button-down shirt or switch things up with a tank top or t-shirt – graphic t-shirts are stellar options.
Alternatively, you could get creative with a patterned blouse or summery scarf. The key is to make sure your outfit looks cohesive and put together. If you’re wearing a more casual t-shirt or tank, try pairing it with bold jewelry or statement shoes to dress it up.
Is blazer formal or casual?
Ah, the age-old question – is a blazer considered formal or casual attire? The answer is – it all depends on how you wear it. A blazer paired with jeans and a t-shirt can give off a more casual vibe, while a blazer worn with dress pants or a skirt can lean towards a more formal look.
It also depends on the fabric and pattern of the blazer – a linen blazer in a bright color is definitely more on the casual side, while a tailored wool blazer in classic black or navy would pass as business attire.
How do you style a blazer casually?
You know what, styling a blazer doesn’t have to be all business – with just a few simple tweaks, you can rock the look on a casual outing. Start by selecting a blazer in a fun, playful fabric or pattern. Not feeling bold? Team it with distressed denim and white sneakers for an effortless vibe.
Or, switch out your go-to tee for a feminine camisole and throw on some statement earrings to dress it up. Accessorize with crossbody bags or clutches instead of carrying a briefcase to complete the cool, casual look.
The key is to mix and match unexpected elements to give your blazer outfit its own unique twist. Trust me – you’ll leave those suit-clad corporate types wondering how you nailed weekend chic in professional attire, lol.
How should a blazer fit on a woman?
Ladies, listen up – when it comes to blazers, fit is everything. A blazer should skim your body without being too tight or too loose. If the shoulders are too big or the sleeves hang past your wrists, it’s not the right fit for you, even when you’re going for an oversized look.
As for length, the bottom of the blazer should hit your hips, creating a balanced silhouette. And don’t forget about button placement! The middle button should sit right at your natural waistline when standing upright.
My pro tip? Take a friend shopping with you and have them snap a few photos from different angles so you can really see how the blazer looks on you. With the perfect fit, a blazer will instantly elevate any outfit.
Can you wear a sweater under a blazer?
You’ll find all sorts of answers to this one. Some argue that it’s uncomfortably stuffy, while others swear by the cozy layering technique. My personal take on this? Go for it! As long as the proportions are right (i.e. the sweater should be slim-fitting and not too bulky or chunky) and the colors complement each other.
Wearing a sweater under a blazer can add an extra dose of warmth and visual interest to your outfit as well. Plus, it’s always better to be slightly too warm than freezing in a chilly office or outdoor event; ask a cold-blooded animal like me, it’s true advice!

Which color blazer is best?
You do you, girls! A blazer is such an essential that if you are a hoarder like me, you will buy one in every color.
But if you are big on making investments for your wardrobe, start off with neutral colors – the usual black, tan, white or navy blue. They have a slightly more versatile and timeless appeal. Then add trendy, statement colors after. Hot pink is a huge trend.
And who says blazers have to be solid colors? Patterned options like plaid, checkered or stripes are fun options that still exude professionalism.
Is a blazer with jeans OK?
You know what? I say wear whatever makes you feel confident and comfortable. Fashion has long been ruled by rigid rules and outdated norms, but who’s to say that a blazer can’t be worn with jeans? Because let me tell you, there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to personal style.
Just mix and match until you find something that speaks to your unique identity, and be unafraid to break the traditional “rules” of fashion. So go ahead, rock that blazer with jeans, or throw on some reflective sunglasses at night.
final thoughts on women’s outfits with blazers
The next time you need some outfit inspiration, don’t forget about the power of the humble blazer! Whether you’re dressing up or dressing down, there’s a blazer outfit just for you. So whatever the occasion may be, reach for your trusty blazer and get ready to Blazin’!
