Floral blazers…yay or nay? It’s probably obvious, but I give them a “yay!”
Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve been swooning over this floral blazer from Banana Republic. Of course, I can acknowledge that they’re more challenging to style than a classic black blazer, but you can still get a lot of wear out of one. I guess I like a challenge, because I already own a floral blazer. It’s been a while since I wore it on the blog, but it’s a piece I still wear and love.
Funny story about that old blog post. During those days, I used to sneak out of the office at lunch, set up my tripod and quickly snap my outfit photos. I wasn’t nearly as vocal about blogging at the time, so I tried to escape the office without being noticed. I used to cringe at the thought of having to explain what I was doing to someone who didn’t “get” it. Isn’t it funny how things change? While I no longer work at that company, eventually, everyone knew about my blog. Now that I work elsewhere, everyone knew about my blog from the start….and I’m pretty sure it’s one of the reasons they hired me in the first place.
Anyhow, if you think floral blazers are cute, but felt at a bit of a loss about how to style them, I hope this gives you some ideas. Don’t forget to pin it for later!

What an adorable blazer! I love the navy background. I think my favourite look is the one with the jeans. I love how the blazer dresses them up!

Really cute ideas how to wear the floral blazer, while I don’t personally have one, I love the new BR collection and I like to buy one unique/stand- out piece to mix and match for each season.

so I may have also seen this blazer, fell in love, and bought both it and the matching pants… whoops. I wore the entire floral suit to my last day at my old job (2 weeks ago) because I told them I was going out with a bang. I’m loving how you styled it – I’ll be featuring my pieces a handful of ways soon.
