wednesday wants #16 - the blazer.

The black blazer is without a doubt a staple item that everyone should have in their wardrobe. Whether you team it with matching black trousers to wow at work or want to go casual with your favourite skinny jeans the item of clothing goes with anything. Today's post covers three ways in which I would wear a blazer, picking up key colours for autumn/winter hopefully you get some ideas for your own wardrobe.

3. skirt
4. bag
5. shoes
6. tights

Look one is twist on office wear. The colours may stand out but the blank canvas of the jacket and the surrounding tonal colours round of the outfit perfectly and gives structure.

Screaming Alexa Chung is outfit number two which consists of the very popular skater skirt dresses of the moment. Again choosing one block colour sticks to a prominent trend and allows the blazer to do its job being a staple, without taking limelight and being noticed as worn more than once. The cute socks give it a school girl feel but round of the outfit by adding a snippet of colour to break up the black.

6. rings
7. earrings

Probably my favourite outfit out of all three today, Look Three is something I could see myself wearing. The rough and ready, edgy style gives something to an otherwise normal black blazer and shows that jackets of this style aren't always boring or just intended for office wear.
