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.

Saw It On Social: Rooted

A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]

The Find: A Versatile Sweater Jacket

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.

Business Casual Outfit: Linen Closet

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.
