I’ve been a huge fan of rocking your blazer with nothing under it (see here). No bra. No top. The blazer essentially becomes a top. I love the subtly sexy (or totally sexy) look it creates, so I decided to experiment with the styling on other favorite jackets. Here’s one attempt that really works.
What I’m wearing:
Jacket as top (option, option) | Flare faux-leather leggings | Studded mules
Earrings: V studs, ball studs, ear cuff | Anklet
My jacket is an old Max Studio style that I found in an outlet store. It’s a jacquard jacket with super-sized balloon sleeves and a single button closure. I’ve worn it as a kimono top before, by wrapping and then belting the front (see how here). Today, I’m simply wearing it as a puff sleeve top.
The jacket has a plunging v-neckline that is perfect for layering necklaces. I wear my 14K gold initial necklace and my 14k gold lariat bar necklace (similar style).
The bottom options with a jacket worn as a top are plentiful. I’m especially loving the kick flare trend, so I went that route. These flare faux leather leggings from Zara are favorites. I’m wearing them in a size large. This top would also look amazing with my Madewell mini flare jeans because they have a similar silhouette.
