I love those looks. Well done.&nbsp;</p> <p>#6 is lovely too, although a lot more classic.&nbsp;</p> <p>#1, #3 and #8 are the most conservative. Perhaps your line of work calls for this type of outfit from time to time?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1340460 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 21:44:55 +0000 Quietgirl 1340460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All VERY professional, favs being 2 &amp; 4! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1340377 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 19:06:57 +0000 doubleh 1340377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great! &nbsp;4,7,9 are my faves. &nbsp;Can't wait till it cools down here enough that I can layer and copy you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1340367 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 18:56:02 +0000 bj1111 1340367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. My faves are when you wear a severe blazer in an unexpected and youthful way...so 2,4,5,9 really hit the high notes. Pleated skirt + jacket=super fab.</p> <p>The others are also goid just not as strong. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1340334 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 18:20:13 +0000 rachylou 1340334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Egads. Can't tell you how much I like these looks - they feel fresh to me. And everything fits so nice! Lies so flat... as in, I'd be all rumpled and things would be pulling this way and </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1340176 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 14:28:24 +0000 trendin1234 1340176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>great.! these blazers are so good looking ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1340113 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 12:58:59 +0000 Anonymous 1340113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These all look great to me! I especially love the casual J. Crew-ish feel of #9 and the dressy yet playful feel of #2 and #5 with the swingy skirts.</p> <p>Of the ones with the blazer over the sheath dress, I like the versions with the belt on the inside the best. Maybe because having a little more movement with the jacket kind of offsets the strict and buttoned-up feel of the outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1340104 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 12:41:27 +0000 Neelie 1340104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great! &nbsp;My favourites are 4 and 5...but all great combos. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1340084 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 11:56:08 +0000 viva 1340084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love these. 4 is really fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1340081 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 11:54:45 +0000 Suz 1340081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them, Emily! My special favourite is #7. Very elegant and chic. #4 is also fun and playful while still being dressy enough for work. It would be great on a day when some fun after work (but part of work) activity was planned, or for a colleague's birthday lunch or similar.&nbsp;</p> <p>How do you feel in them? Are they more "you"? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1340058 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 11:33:38 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1340058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent. &nbsp;It looks like you have wearing a blazer sorted out. &nbsp;They all work beautifully and 7 is outstanding to my eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1340052 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 11:18:49 +0000 Anonymous 1340052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think all these looks work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1340040 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 10:06:28 +0000 Jjsloane 1340040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like you've sorted it all out. Great looks, and I think they all work.&nbsp;I am especially liking 1 and 4. I like how you've used the same elements and mixed them up - capsule! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1340029 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 07:42:29 +0000 Gigi 1340029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Emily, these are great! I'm looking for blazers for myself right now, and this post will be a great one for me to come back to because I love all your styling options. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1339991 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 05:11:16 +0000 Alana in Canada 1339991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Nicely done. Just wondering, though, am I the onlyone who would like to see a darker shoe in #2 to balance the volume of the skirt?<br />#4 is snazzy. Makes me think of Oscar Wilde for some reason. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1339990 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 05:09:45 +0000 purple8 1339990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great. Like 7 a lot. Also like those shoes in 3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1339983 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 04:43:53 +0000 Sal 1339983@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am with Firecracker, they are wonderful. &nbsp;I love 5 and&nbsp;7, both such&nbsp;smart sharp looks!!&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1339977 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 03:58:20 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1339977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Emily, I think you've got it down! All of these are great. The proportions are just stunning, all the pairings creative and flattering. The only one I hesitate a little bit on is 3, with the belt over the blazer; maybe close the blazer? The rest are perfect 10s in my book. <br />How do you feel about them? Better than you were feeling before about your blazer looks? The do strike me as every bit as cool as the ones you had pinned. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfit-lab-blazers-for-work#post-1339973 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 03:21:29 +0000 Emily 1339973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Finally I had a nice chunk of time to try styling my blazers! <br />As was pointed out to me in my "bamboozled by blazers" post by some astute forum members, the less casual blazer outfits I like were more "done" than my usual looks, with layered sleeves/jewellery/etc. &nbsp;I am sure done hair and jewellery would make a difference, but here is what I came up with in terms of the clothes. &nbsp;I think some of these are more succesful than others, but would love your opinions! &nbsp;Pardon my undone hair...<br />&nbsp;<br />#1 Zara Boyfriend Blazer +&nbsp;J.Crew Factory sheath dress + Club Monaco blouse + Blue Patent Belt<br />#2: Ricki's cropped black blazer +&nbsp;Old Navy checked&nbsp;chiffon blouse + RW&amp;Co pleated chiffon skirt&nbsp;<br />#3 Ricki's open blazer with black stretch belt overtop&nbsp;+ J.Crew Factory Dress + Old Navy checked chiffon<br />#4 Ricki's open blazer + Old navy checked chiffon blouse + Grey Vest (From April!) + Banana Republic black and white sloan ankle pants<br />#5 Ricki's open blazer + BCBG godet dress + Reitmans heart print blouse + Black Belt<br />#6 Ricki's cropped blazer + Old Navy checked chiffon shirt + Banana Republic skirt<br />#7 Ricki's open blazer + Old Navy pink chiffon shirt + Banana Republic black and white sloan ankle pants<br />#8 is #3 again, but belted on the inside of the blazer<br />#9 Zara boyfriend blazer + Old Navy checked chiffon shirt + Old Navy studded sweater + Banana Republic sloan ankle pants</p> <p> </p>
