I'm going to say something that may shock you: blazers are really easy to style with shorts. While in the past, blazers were strictly reserved for boardroom meetings and presentations, this versatile piece has become a street style favourite. We already know that this piece is a Fall staple, but it's increasingly being worn in the summertime with another warm-weather fave: shorts [1].
If you're wondering how, exactly, one styles this outfit combo, we've got you covered. Think cute, Clueless-inspired sets that would make Cher Horowitz proud and Instagram-friendly outfits consisting of denim cutoffs and plaid blazers that are just begging to be photographed. You can totally get away with wearing your denim cutoffs to the office and making them work appropriate by styling them with an oversize blazer [2] and cute headband — that is, if your dress code is a little more relaxed.
The key to pulling off this look lies in making sure the length of the shorts and blazer are proportional.With this in mind, we strongly suggest you dust off your blazer and start innovating your style with this combination.
