blazer wearers - i have a question

[heartofgold]

so blazer type jackets are everywhere, someone else must have had this dilemma. what do you do when it's too cold to just wear a blazer? do you wear a coat over the top? or do you all drive/get taxis everywhere and never walk?

jumper underneath
or if it's that cold I wear a coat instead

lol @ mrs b was genuine question - i was thinking of the blazer as a part of your outfit, i.e. you wouldn't want to take it off when you get whereveritisyou'regoing - like those sequinny things you'd keep those on, right?

in which case jumper underneath would be too hot.

or a tux - you wouldn't take that off when you got there or would you?

iw anta fake fur coat
but catn justify

Blazer? Why?

They are so boring...

Blazers are like ballet pumps....for certain seasons only. (or if you aren't walking in winter)

What are these blazers you mention? Examples please . I have yet to notice this trend.

They are very in in ENgland

chung

Oh. I like, I think. Wd be sort of a cardigan-type layer? So scarf for warmth if driving/inside, coat over the top if outside? The blazer isn't really structured or bulky.

I must go to shops soon, I am in England but that trend had completely passed me by.

I often have to wear suits to work and just stick a coat over the top. Scarves hide any odd collar effects

i want a fake fur coat too but can't find what i want so have given up. would you wear OVER a blazer then dan?

they can't be not for winter, not when i've only just bought one [pout]

I thought you were using 'chung' in a 'ta-da!' kind of way til I opened the link She is v skinny isn't she

aha thankyou tizzy the answer i was looking for seriously, a coat over the top is okay, then?

NOOOOOOOO You don't wear a top coat over a blazer unless your at high school and waiting for a bus on a rainy, dark morning at 7.45am like my DS!! For fashion purposes you suffer!!!!! (like I do - !!!!!)

awwww

why anna? cos i'm currently channelling chrissie hynde, sartorially. i suppose that's my answer - would chrissie wear a coat? nah.

A big scarf - River Island have some great ones

But Upahill you keep the coat done up and wear a big scarf and no one know whats underneath and you stay warm. But no way would I have been that sensible on my way to school.....

agree re river island scarves

adn strangely.. marks menswear
chunkier in rl
