THE Blazer

Probably my favorite item this year...the blazer! You can dress it up (like Lauren Conrad) or dressy-casual (like Kourtney Kardashian) or go totally casual on the beach (like Katie Holmes with Suri).




However...blazers are no longer the basic black (as seen above), although that is a staple item to have. White blazers have been a huge trend this year, made big by the Kardashians. I love how Kourtney pairs it with a colorful romper or dress. 




Now, lets get FUNKY! Blazers are also big in bold colors, sequins, textures and prints! Favorite Housewife, Kyle Richards rocks the sequin blazer as seen below. My favorite website to find the perfect blazer that will fit the style you are trying to achieve is zara.com! They really have EVERYTHING! Here are just a few:



  

Now, lets finish with more ways you can wear the blazer and how to accessorize. This fall, I am dying to wear my blazer with thick, funky scarves and a long dress underneath. Any shoe can be worn and really cool hats such as fedoras, beanies, and gaucho-like styles are perfect! Also, you can recycle your summer dresses by throwing them under the blazer (pair with tights if it gets too cold) and some flats! H&M and Urban Outfitters are also great places to find blazers as well. Get CREATIVE!
