In need of an instant outfit upgrade? Add a blazer. Really. Its a no-fail trick, especially in the fall, to upgrade your look. Whether you are wearing a dress, skinny jean or sequined shorts….a blazer is your go to piece. Don’t believe me? Let me introduce you to my friend, the blazer.

The Tipped Blazer

Adds just that extra bit of “check me out” appeal, but not so much of a “look at me” piece. Loving this one from JCrew.

Sequined Blazer

Can we say, WOW? Heading out for a night? Want to look instantly amazing? Basic black. Basic sequined blazer – especially this Calvin Klein one available at Piperlime. Done. Kapow. Lookin’ good, girl.

Satin Trimmed Blazer

A little pop of color goes a long way. Case in point – this fab and funky blue blazer. Easy for work, play…all of the above. Thanks to Forever 21 for this one!

Polka Dot

You have to admit – polka dots are so-fabulous! They really never go out of style. Just be sure that you wear reasonably sized dots. No need to go on the slippery slope of looking like a clown. (P.S. – nothing is scarier than a clown!) Loving this LC Lauren Conrad polka dot blazer available at Kohls.

Tweed + Leather = Heaven

I’m so crushing on the mix of the feminine and ruggedness of this tweed and (faux) leather jacket from Target. Its got that “je ne sais quoi.” You know what I mean. How fierce would this look with…well…anything?

Wrap Jacket

If your looking for something more snuggle and cozy for the fall… look no further. I am drooling over this alice + olivia wrap jacket from Shopbop. OMG. Dying. Can you picture yourself wearing this gorgeous zig-zag print whilst out picking apples or sipping cider… A must have.
