Blazers are one of our favorite fashion items for women in the professional sector. They are so effortlessly polished and sophisticated, making them ideal for the work week. But it’s possible to dress a blazer down for the weekend or a night out. You just need this one tip. Rina shows us how:
I have been pairing my blazers with denim lately and loving the mix between dressy and casual. In the past, I felt blazers were only appropriate for work or business meetings, but I’m finding that they’re a pretty versatile item to style and have been wearing them more informally lately.

One of my favorite ways to dress down a blazer is to pair it with jeans and a tee. I usually opt for high-waist denim rather than low-risers to balance out the look more. Bonus styling tip: Choose a boyfriend-fit blazer, or longer blazer to keep the your ensemble fresh and modern.

“Attending private school and wearing uniforms, I always felt the need to test the boundaries. Whether it was with my sky-high hairstyles or slight uniform infractions, I was always looking for a way to stand out amongst my conformed peers. To this day, I still find myself testing the boundaries with my fashion choices and encouraging others to do the same.
