[tps_title]Just Another Jacket[/tps_title]
Forest Green Cotton Custom Double-Breasted Blazer – Indochino | Grey Sweatshirt – H&M | White Oxford Button Down Collar Shirt – Frank & Oak | Washed 508 Jeans – Levi | “Lyden” Suede Double Monk Strap Shoes – 1901 (available at Nordstrom) | Dean Sunglasses In English Oak – Warby Parker
One thing you should try is rocking your double-breasted blazer as a normal piece of outerwear. With the patch pockets and extra wide lapel, this blazer can serve double-duty because they details are a little more casual that traditional hacking pockets and normal peak or notch lapel.
- Rock the blazer over a layered sweatshirt/sweater look like this one
- Tailoring is key! A well-tailored torso is key to wearing a double-breasted jacket open
- USE YOUR DAMN POCKETS
- If you going with a green blazer, a light washed pair of jeans adds to the casual nature of the look
- Don’t be afraid to mix streetwear style (like this quilted sweatshirt) with such a tailored blazer. It’s shows a bit of confidence and style know-how
- To give the look a dressier element to complement the blazer, add a pair of suede double-monk strap shoes or loafers
- If you’re tired of rocking shoes, add a canvas sneaker in white or blue
I just found your blog and you have clued me in so many things. The double breasted blazer with the white pants look is photo shoot fresh. Will have to see about spending some $$$ at Indochino
HI Ayoola,
Happy to hear that you stumbled upon the blog and like the looks. The white pants look is probably my favorite that I style, but, the look with the jeans does it for me too.
Best,
Sabir
