Fall has always been the time for smart layering, especially when it comes to jackets. That additional piece of clothing, whether you re wearing it inside, outside, or both, pulls outfits together in a way that just pants and a shirt never could. One top layer that continues to do this with ultimate success? The blazer.
Menswear has no doubt become a little more laidback and casual in the past few years. But that doesn t mean you can t or shouldn t continue looking sharp and put together; it just means you can be a little more creative about it.
A solid blazer helps you do just that. First, you can think about function. Another layer is truly helpful for frigid mornings or a blasting AC inside. But it s also one of the easiest ways to make it feel like an otherwise casual outfit has leveled up. Blazer over a T-shirt? Great. A sweater? Awesome. A hoodie? Yes but not for the style newbie.
