Whether gearing up for a power meeting or planning a casual brunch, the blazer is your go-to for slaying any occasion. So, why settle for ordinary when you can turn heads with the perfect blazer?

    But how do you choose the blazer for you? Well, follow these five tips to get your perfect blazer.

So,what are the 5 best ways to rock a blazer for women?

   Consider your body shape before you buy a blazer because one size doesn’t fit all.  Different blazers complement different body shapes. Are you pear-shaped, apple-shaped, rectangular, inverted triangle or hourglass-shaped?

Pear Shape

   Wear blazers that balance your narrow upper body with your lower body. Choose blazers that have shoulder pads and ruffles on the collar.

   You should also pick blazers with details on the shoulder, collar, lapel or lighter-coloured blazers. You can wear belted blazers with shoulder pads or details on the collar.

   Avoid blazers with details on the bottom of them and blazers that end at the hips as they will make your lower body look bigger.

Hourglass Shape.

Belted blazer

  If you have an hourglass shape, then you are in luck. Choose blazers that accentuate your strength, which is your waist. They show off your waist and make you look fantastic.

  Also, choose single-breasted blazers instead of double-breasted blazers. Single-breasted blazers always have more space at the top so they won’t be too tight in the shoulder and bust area.

Inverted Triangle.

  If you have this body shape, you need to choose blazers that take away attention from your broad shoulders and back.

  Choose blazes without collars that fall below the hipline. You can also wear peplum-style blazers and blazers made with flowing fabrics like silk and chiffon.

  Avoid blazers with shoulder pads, or any details on the top of the blazer or choose blazers without lapels.

  Apple Shape.

  If you are apple-shaped, you should choose blazers that will disguise your large middle. Wear structured blazers because the cut will draw attention away from your midsection.

  Choose rectangle-shaped blazers made with thinner fabrics. You can also wear blazers that fall below the hips to make you longer and leaner.

  You can also wear belted blazers as long as the belt is not tight. Keep it loose and wear a tiny belt. If not, it will make your midsection look worse.

Rectangle Shape.

If you are rectangle-shaped, wear blazers that add curves to your lean body. Wear belted blazers to give you an illusion of a waist. You can also choose blazers nipped in the waist or peplum blazers to give you a curvier silhouette.

Skin tone.

 You need to choose colours that compliment your skin tone so that you can look and feel your best.

  Fair-skinned ladies can wear both dark and light-coloured blazers. You can wear dark-coloured blazers if you want to look leaner and light-coloured blazers if you are already slim. Dark-skinned ladies look great in light-coloured blazers. Wear colours like red, yellow, pink, sky blue etc.

   However, always find out which colours look best on you because some colours don’t look good on some people regardless of their skin tone.

Fabric

  Another thing to pay attention to is choosing the best blazer for your environment. There is no point in buying a leather blazer when you live in a hot place or a chiffon blazer when you live in a cold environment.

If you live in a hot place, wear blazers made with soft and light fabrics. Examples of these fabrics are chiffon, cotton and linen.

However, if you live in a cold environment, choose blazers made with heavier and thicker fabrics. Examples of these are tweed, rayon, viscose, polyester, leather and crepe.

The Fit.

There is no point in wearing a beautiful blazer when you feel uncomfortable. Always choose blazers that are not blazers clingy at the shoulders.

You should also buy a blazer that is a size bigger just in case you need to make alterations.Also pay attention to details like the bust, lapel and sleeves. Such things can make or break the look of your blazer.

  The Occasion.

A blazer is a versatile item that you can wear to almost any occasion.For example, a sequin blazer will be unsuitable for the office, but more appropriate for a casual date with your girlfriends. However, a structured blazer will look out of place at a casual party.

Look at the following ways to rock your blazer for every occasion.

You can wear a tan coloured blazer with a white tank top and jeans.

You can wear a black blazer with a black tank top or a satin spaghetti strap and pair it with a short metallic skirt for a night out.

  You can wear your blazer with skinny jeans or boyfriend jeans to hang out with friends.

  You can wear your blazer with trousers, be it wide-legged trousers or cigarette trousers for a formal look.

This look is suitable for office or formal occasions. You can also wear your blazer with well-tailored shorts for a casual look.
