Très Chic Blazer Outfits for Women

For many years the blazer was associated mostly with menswear. But in the last couple of decades, the blazer has become a piece everyone can wear, and women are styling them in chic ways we’ve never seen before. 

I absolutely love my black, white, and plaid blazers. I add them to my looks often to elevate basic outfits and find that I can wear them year-round. With jeans, over a dress, with shorts, and even leggings. Needless to say, I wear my blazers a lot. 

My Fave Blazer Outfits

To help inspire you, I’ve created several of my own blazer outfits and have scoured the fashion world for more! So if you’ve been wanting to add this chic piece to your wardrobe, you’ll want to see this blazer outfits for women style guide! 

Blazer With Sneakers

Above is my take on cute blazer outfits with sneakers. In my opinion, a slightly oversized black blazer can look more laid-back with a knit tank, vintage-wash straight-leg jeans, and white sneakers. 

If your work hosts “Casual Fridays”, this is an easy way to look professional while wearing denim in a corporate office setting.

Here’s another look from @symphonyofsilk with a blazer and sneakers. She pairs white trousers with a white tee and an oversized black blazer. 

I love this whole outfit as it’s giving a chic athleisure vibe. It’s the modern twist on a sporting club look that men wore for decades (women just do it better now!)

Boyfriend Blazer Outfit

get the look:

A boyfriend blazer has a more oversized look than a fitted blazer. I love this outfit above where I paired an oversized plaid blazer with vintage-wash jeans and nude slingback heels. 

The outfit has a “took-it-from-my-boyfriends-closet” vibe but still looks feminine with the figure-hugging jeans and accessories. I also love the feminine/masculine mix with the slingback heels.

Above is another look with a plaid boyfriend blazer, jeans, and a graphic tee. I would add a pair of  black Mary-Jane flats to bring in a feminine touch along with a black shoulder bag to complete the look. 

Wedding Guest Blazer Outfit

get the look:

Whenever I have a wedding to attend, I love to add a chic touch to the outfit by layering a blazer over my dress. This is a perfect look for a wedding taking place on a cooler day since the blazer is not only stylish but also adds a layer of warmth. 

I always like to stick to neutral colors for a clean and polished look. The classic black and white color combo is appropriate for any wedding, and choosing black or white accessories helps to pull the whole look together! 

Classic Blazer Combo

@style.your.occasion

get the look:

This is by far my favorite blazer outfit idea. I love how classic and timeless it is, and even though the jeans and t-shirt are a casual combo, the blazer and ballet flats instantly elevate the whole look.

get the look:

Above, you’ll see how I easily changed the look of the blazer outfit by swapping the white tee for a knit camisole, the straight-leg jeans for wide-leg, and the ballet flats for heeled black boots. 

The blazer and jeans combo instantly goes from day to night! 

Oversized Plaid Blazer + LBD

Combining an oversized plaid blazer with a little black dress is chic and modern. I love how this unexpected combo just works!

get the look:

I also love the look of an oversized plaid blazer with a mini black dress for the perfect mix of masculine and feminine. This look by @anindigoday is perfect for date night, girl’s night, or a formal event in the evening, in my opinion! 

‘Old Money’ Blazer Outfit

@style.your.occasion

get the look:

The “old money” aesthetic trend has gained huge popularity this past year. In fact, Harper’s Bazaar recently wrote a whole article about it. My outfit above gives an “old money” vibe with the neutral plaid blazer, ivory cashmere top, off-white jeans, and touches of brown. 

When it comes to achieving the old-money aesthetic, a blazer is the perfect place to start!

get the look:

Above, I’m wearing the same combination of off-white jeans and a neutral plaid blazer, but have swapped the t-shirt for a luxurious cashmere turtleneck and the brown accessories for black. 

This blazer outfit is chic and elevated and I always feel put-together in it. 

Blazer + Leggings

get the look:

I love the latest trend of wearing an oversized blazer with leaggings. It’s casual and sporty but has an elevated vibe.

Above, I’m wearing my black Lululemon Align leggings with the YSL Vintage Tee (here’s a more cheaper alternative), an oversized black blazer, and my black New Balance 574’s

Western Vibes

get the look:

I wore this outfit to the Stampede last summer and found that the blazer and cowboy boots combo gave the perfect “urban cowgirl” aesthetic. The black top and blazer keep this outfit refined, while the boots add some fun Western flair. 

I think this outfit would look equally as good with black cowboy boots too! 

More Blazer Outfit Ideas To Copy

Now that you’ve seen some effortless blazer outfit combos, get inspired with even more women’s blazer outfits that have a chic and feminine vibe!

Camel Blazer Outfit

get the look:

Camel is a versatile and stylish option for fall women’s blazer outfits. You can pair it with a feminine slip dress and suede heels like the look on @sarahchristine above, or with a more laid-back outfit. 

I love the combination of the oversized blazer and feminine dress as the length of the blazer gives an elevated look to the outfit. 

You can also pair a camel blazer with black jeans and a striped black and white knit sweater underneath. Finish the outfit with camel or black loafers for a sophisticated vibe.

Here’s another chic camel blazer outfit that I just love! The crisp white sweater dress has a warm and cozy feel, while the camel blazer and accessories are perfect for early fall. 

This outfit is a great idea for a coffee date, in my opinion!  

Midi Dress + Linen Blazer

get the look:

When considering cute blazer outfits for women, pairing a midi shirt dress with a linen blazer is a great way to go. Midi dresses are a perfect option for spring and summer, and the blazer can easily add some warmth if it’s cooler out. 

This outfit can be worn for running errands and brunch with friends, or for a wine tasting at a vineyard. I also love how the loafers keep a polished look, but you could easily swap them out for heels to take this outfit from day to night. 

 

Red Blazer Outfit

@sylviemus_

get the look:

A red blazer is a bold choice but works when done the right way. In fact, according to Town & Country, the name “blazer” was first coined in 1952 when an article referred to the “blazing red” jacket worn by members of Cambridge’s Lady Margaret Boat Club. 

I recommend pairing a red blazer with neutral colors like black, tan, or white. Other colors will compete with the red and may end up looking tacky rather than polished and classy. 

Navy Blazer with Loafers

get the look:

This chic and polished look from @cocobeautea is perfect for everyday wear. I love how it can easily take you from a business meeting to shopping with friends. 

Linen Blazer with Cropped Jeans

@fakerstrom

get the look:

I absolutely love this Parisian-inspired look on @fakerstrom. To recreate it, style a neutral-toned linen blazer with an ivory cami, cropped blue jeans, and black slingback mules. 

Blazer + Converse

@lovisabarkman

get the look:

For a casual and cute look, style a tan boyfriend blazer with a white t-shirt and Converse sneakers. This is one of my fave blazer outfits that is chic yet effortless, and can be thrown together in a flash! 

 

Blazer Outfits For Work

Wearing a blazer to work should feel second nature, even if you work in a more casual environment. Below are two women’s blazer outfits that can be worn for a more professional work setting, or an office that has table tennis and napping pods.

get the look:

I think a blazer and leather pants are an excellent choice for the office. It’s stylish and professional with a bit of an edgy vibe.

get the look:

This monochromatic outfit is giving me all the feels. The oversized black blazer looks excellent with black cropped trousers and black loafers. It’s professional and chic at the same time. 

Blazer Outfit With Shorts

get the look:

When it comes to cute blazer outfits for women, the blazer and shorts combo is definitely having a moment. I love the look of an oversized boyfriend blazer in the summer thrown over a knit tank and pleated shorts. 

Blazer, Striped Knit + Black Denim

@emmahill

get the look:

This classic and sophisticated blazer outfit by @emmahill is one I come back to again and again. It has a Parisian vibe and consists of the perfect blend of neutrals. 

A Pop Of Color

get the look:

The final outfit on my list is by @styleidealist. I love how she pairs cropped green pants with a basic black tee and an oversized oatmeal blazer. The heeled white sandals keep the outfit looking fresh and feminine and the green pops against the neutrals. So chic!
