The Find: Relaxed Knit Blazers

Mar 31, 2020

It’s hard to know what to do right now.  On Sunday, I didn’t even take off my pajamas.  Just didn’t feel up to it.  This week, I have several meetings that will require a blazer.  So I went looking for jackets that were a little more relaxed; jackets that I could wear all day long.

The first place I went looking was Express.  This <$50 Soft Knit Girlfriend Blazer caught my eye.  The relaxed drape and loose-fitting sleeve makes this a comfortable blazer for sitting at your desk.

Also on the knit blazer train, I’ve spoken before about my love for the relaxed, cozy stylings of the J.Crew Juliette Collarless Sweater-Blazer.  It’s like wearing a work bathrobe, it’s that comfortable.  For something a little more fitted, try their Sophie Open Front Sweater Blazer.  All J.Crew pieces also come in plus-size.

Need a straight up blazer?  NYDJ’s ponte knit blazer was one of the best pieces I purchased during the legislative session.  I could throw it on over anything.  It’s also <$100, runs in XXS to XL.

    I’m really liking the casual ‘work from home’ attire as a focus, just wondering if you have any suggestions for warm climates? It’s already close to 90 in Houston and my home office (fortunately I have a dedicated home office, very lucky) gets blazing hot in the summer due to completely inefficient a/c system and poor duct layout. I’ve been rocking race tee shirts and shorts but I see more v/c in my future!

    I too love the Jcrew collarless sweater blazer. I also find that at a different price point the ponte blazers from old navy are also very comfortable – and great for travel (when that is a thing again…)

    I discovered the J. Crew Factory sweater blazers some months back thanks to Audrey over on Putting Me Together and LOVE them. Very comfortable but pull a work outfit together quite nicely. I currently own black, gray, maroon, and green but have been stalking eBay for navy as well since it’s no longer carried in store.

The Find: A Striped Tee

Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.

Three Outfits I’ll Wear All Spring

When I started this blog, influencers still re-wore clothes. There were no haul videos filled with the latest from Shein before it winds up in a beach in Ghana poisoning the planet. There were no sponsored campaigns delivering fresh wardrobes each month. The content machine doesn’t like reruns.

The Find: Like a McCall’s Pattern

When I was young, my Mother used to bring me along when she would go shopping for fabric. As a result, I spent a lot of time, killing time, flipping through pattern books. So when I spotted this dress, I was instantly transported to the pattern table at a Jo-Ann Fabrics.
