Blazer

Can anyone point me in the direction of a nice blazer? Something that looks good with jeans and will help me look a bit more pulled together? I'd quite like a red one.

You need to be careful with red blazers. They can make you look like a holiday park entertainments rep.

Try coral or burnt orange.

Smythe blazers look really nice and can be dressed up or down

Alternatively, Zara?

Two different ends of the scale in terms of price points!

Can’t link but Sosander have some nice looking colours on the website, I haven’t bought so don’t know about the quality.

I agree with this. Especially when paired with white.

I saw someone wearing a red linen trouser suit (not in UK) and the fabric stopped it looking too much like a uniform. I can imagine that the texture of a red linen jacket would look nice with a jeans.

I was in Hobbs last week, didn't see the coral blazer but just bought it online after your post. Exactly what I'm looking for to go with both white and caramel wide-leg trousers and sold out in all three stores within a 100 mile radius of where I live!

I hadn't thought of Sosandar. They're a little too fond of animal print, but I have a couple of their shirts that I like very much. I'll have a look at Hobbs and Joe Brown too. Thanks
