Rock the Trend: Fitted Blazers & Skinny Pants

In the everyday world of dressing, many women wear blazers and many more wear skinny pants, but who would have ever thought to put these styles together?  Well, I did of course!  So if blazers, skinny pants, or both are a part of your regular wardrobe, then read on to find out how to wear these timeless pieces together in a completely new way. 

For the Blazer-When it comes to the blazer, fitted is best.  You will want a jacket to be slightly shrunken but not seem like it’s too small.  This means, when you move your arms, there should not be any pulling sensation across the shoulder blades.  Look for blazers that are nipped or cinched through the waist but have a regular fit and width at the shoulders.  Also, go for a blazer whose sleeves extend slightly past the wrists. 

For the Skinny Pants-In terms of bottoms, go for a dark, lean trouser.  Try a pair with a little stretch to get the best fit.  You will also want to keep adornment or embellishment on the pants to be minimal or non-existent.  This ensemble says enough on it s own!  To complete this look, go for a pair of ankle boots with a rounded or square toe to add a bit of edge.  If you really are daring, go for a pair of pants that stop a few inches above the boot. 

Now are you ready to try the fitted blazer and skinny pants trend?  If you are, you now know how to wear it and wear it well.  A loose tee or tank will offset the tailored jacket and pants.  Tuck in the top and pull it out a bit to give it a soft, billowy effect that serves as the perfect contrast.  As always, good luck and happy shopping!
