You could do pattern mixing by wearing the blazer with polka-dots or a floral that picks up some of the colors in the stripes, or a graphic tee and wide cropped jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-does-this-blazer-look-dated#post-2102428 Thu, 27 Feb 2020 10:19:24 +0000 Star (Lise) 2102428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for your feedback, much appreciated.&nbsp; This blazer has been 'resting' for a few years in storage but now will get another chance.</p> <p>Rachylou - Yes, you are right it will look cute with high waist jeans, tx!</p> <p>The Cat - I do have blush Puma leather sneakers - I am definitely going to pair them!&nbsp; The bold pink stripe is interesting because it is not solid, it is partially broken - like some traditional school boys blazers </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-does-this-blazer-look-dated#post-2102424 Thu, 27 Feb 2020 08:37:11 +0000 rachylou 2102424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it would be cute with the new high waist </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-does-this-blazer-look-dated#post-2102336 Wed, 26 Feb 2020 22:22:19 +0000 The Cat 2102336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks fine. How fun that the stripes are bold pink! How about adding a pink bag or pink shoes, perhaps sneakers? The bag and/or shoes don't need to be bold pink, they might just be blush pink if you like. Pink accessories will give your dark outfit a springy vibe and might prove quite versatile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-does-this-blazer-look-dated#post-2102323 Wed, 26 Feb 2020 21:05:13 +0000 AndiB 2102323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you can definitely contemporize it by belting at the waist with a wider belt, and wearing with some wide legged bottoms.&nbsp; Adding on trend pieces can really make items we think might be marginally dated current!&nbsp; and add some big white sneakers!&nbsp; :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-does-this-blazer-look-dated#post-2102302 Wed, 26 Feb 2020 18:59:47 +0000 Sal 2102302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it too- definitely classic and with a school vibe!!

It looks like a nice blazer.&nbsp;I like the interesting play on pinstripes!</p> <p>It's a little hard to assess fit when it's flat on a bed.
