    Bought a gorgeous blazer, don't know what to wear with it!
    Recently bought this blazer from h&m:

    I don't really know what I could wear it with. I'm thinking maybe some burgundy chinos and a simple black lace trim vest top. Any ideas on outfits?

    Thanks

    I'd go with light blue jeans and a white shirt

    Thanks for looking at the model and telling me what she wears, but I'm not really a fan of the blue jeans with the blazer - it doesn't really look like it goes.

    I agree a black vest would look good

    I would say dark trousers ... the blazer is quite a slim fit so probably slim fit trousers too

    Burgundy/black/Dark Brown


    I think that very dark trousers could use a lighter shade vest and still work

    Elbow pads??

    I'd go with bottlecap lenses, fake wispy white hair coming out of your ears and nose, and a bald cap...

    With a white t-shirt and those high waisted levi shorts, i have a similar blazer and it looks really good. Could also chuck it over a black dress for evenings.
