STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Stripped Blazer? She's A Keeper!

July 1st, 2015 at 2:00am

There’s something about blazers that I personally can’t get enough of. Even when you’re not in a conservative setting, blazers never fail to help bring your outfit from ordinary to extraordinary. No wonder I couldn’t help but capture this Fashionista’s outfit which is so classy, retro and so #RAD! I caught this Fashionista looking so vibrant and outgoing after attending a blind date. Way to make him want to save your number, girlfriend!

In recent years, Fashionistas and Fashionistos around the world have been revisiting fashion trends from the ’80s and ’90s. Since then, we’ve all been digging through our parents’ closets for some vintage high-waisted jeans and of course, the blazers with the infamous shoulder padding. What I appreciate about today’s designers is that they take the vintage styles and add a modern twist to it.

Our Fashionista’s blazer has a sequence of black, white and red stripes which is definitely something you’ll see more now than 20 or 30 years ago. Her blazer not only represents a classy yet retro look, but it also represents her personal style. She chose to pair her blazer with a mini red dress and black heels. Blazers may seem a bit too warm for the summer, but this fashionista made it work by showing off a little more leg. When I asked our fashionista her favorite place to shop she mention Charlotte Russe, Payless and Rainbow.
