A Well-Fitting Blazer

In case you are a little bulky around the waistline, it will draw attention away from the waistline and on to your shoulders, giving you a look of being well put. Today’s blazers come in all forms, and an adventurous soul will play around with bright colors, kitenge, khanga, stripes, texture, and length, so as to fit any occasion.

Well-fitting blazers can be paired with A-line dresses or skirts, a pair of jeans or shorts for a fun day out, a pencil skirt for that office meeting or interview, or a pair of tights with heels for a fun night out. Don’t be afraid to try out the boyish look by wearing a bow-tie or tie with your blazer to break out the monotony once in a while.

If you don’t already have this with you, then get out there and buy or get a custom made one from a creative designer.
