Let’s get started with 20 ways to wear a checked blazer.
What To Wear With A Check Blazer?
We’ve already done a detailed post on What to Wear with Printed Blazers, but today’s article is all about checkered blazers only. There are many different types of check prints including plaid, tartan, tweed, window-pane and many more. While all the styles differ slightly from each other in terms of print or fabric, they all do share the same classy feel that we love about checks. Here are some tips, do’s and dont’s on wearing checkered blazers this season:
- If you’re planning to buy just 1 or 2 blazers, look for one that has the ability to spice up any outfit whether its casual or formal.
- It’s always best to go for a relaxed fit as your fitting can change based on how many layers you’re wearing. And in my case, it can even change based on how much food I’ve had since morning, so the relaxed fit is always a safe bet.
- Tartan blazers in shades of grey or black are best for formal evening wear. For daywear, you could go for some catchy colors like pastels or perhaps even hot pink.
- If you’re looking for a checked blazer for work, go for any shade of blue that you like as it’s considered the most professional blazer color for workplaces.
- Don’t be afraid to add in more checks. The concept that prints don’t work with prints is probably the most outdated one, especially when it comes to checked blazers since they look so good when paired with complementing checkered items.
- Contradicting fashion pieces go so well together. While checked blazers are more masculine in nature, pairing them with a feminine floral dress can create the most sophisticated outfit ever.
