The definitive work-wear staple—the blazer—is back with a vengeance for fall. This time around, say “goodbye” to boyfriend styling and “hello” to a fitted and feminine cut perfectly trimmed and tailored to dramatically define your waist. The most modern versions hit near the hip and offer a sleek silhouette just right for “dressing down” with denim or “dressing up” with trousers. Feel free to flaunt this flattering fit, even on a Friday night—just be sure to add a little sparkle by way of diamond earrings (we won’t tell if they’re rhinestones), or a serious pair of stilettos. The tweed blazer (pictured above left) by McGinn at Blush Boutique undoubtedly fits the bill for fall, particularly given fashion’s recent obsession with not only tweed, but also all things black and white.
