Dallas fashion bloggers over 40 modeling how to style a blazer in the summer

TGIF beauties!  Do you like wearing blazers even in the summertime?  If you love wearing them as much as Cathy and I do, then you may be wondering how to style a blazer in the summer, and if you are then you’ve come to the right place!  My personal favorite way to wear blazers in the summertime is to pair them with shorts. Over-sized blazers are having a huge moment in 2022 as they’ve been seen all over IG and on tons of celebs and mega influencers. Looking for more chic ways to style the infamous blazer this summer? Then keep scrolling because there are 4 more effortless and easy ways to wear your blazer this season.

The chic oversized black blazer we’re both wearing is actually designed by one of our good friends who also happens to be an influencer: Lisa DiCicco.  I was recently at a Revolve wellness retreat with Lisa and she shared with us she was about to launch her first-ever blazer and we’re so excited for her!  I’m a firm believer in women supporting women which is why I’m so thrilled to be featuring her amazing oversized blazer with all of you.  You can order this amazing blazer here and we recommend sizing down, it runs fairly big.  We’re both wearing the XS/S.

PAIR WITH HIGH-WAISTED SHORTS:

The first look I’ve curated in response to the question “how to style a blazer in the summer” features these fantastic black shorts by Agolde, called the Dee short! These are my favorite silhouette of shorts because they are high-waisted and a bit longer so I find them to be very age-appropriate. They run tts in my opinion and I’m wearing a 25 for size reference.

WHITE BLAZER FROM EXPRESS:

This white blazer from Express is one of my all time favorite designer dupes! It reminds me so much of the Balmain blazer but is literally a fraction of the price. The one feature I actually prefer in this dupe over the designer version is the super luxe gold buttons. I’m wearing an XS in this summer staple.

PAIR WITH A CROP TOP:

This ribbed crop top with a tie back and the matching skirt are a fabulous option when considering how to style a blazer for the summertime. The design of this set shows a bit of midriff so it feels natural to pair it with an over-sized blazer. This set has another plus, which is that is has an under $100 price point for each piece! I’m wearing an XS in this bold bright top.

AND MATCHING MIDI SKIRT:

The matching skirt to the top above is just as fabulous with an equally affordable price point under $100. I love the  bright bold color which is very on trend. I also find the ribbed material to be very slimming and gives the whole outfit a high-end vibe!

VERONICA BEARD LEATHER BLAZER:

This structured leather blazer by Veronica Beard is another favorite of mine that is always in my rotation, regardless of the season. The light camel color is one of the most luxe shades in my opinion which means it’s a great option for styling a blazer in the summertime. The fit is impeccable, and the structured design has an amazing slimming effect on any silhouette. I find this jacket runs tts and I’m wearing a size 0.

PAIR WITH A CLASSIC PAIR OF SLIMMING JEANS:

My final tip for how to style a blazer in the summer is to pair it with a classic pair of slimming jeans, such as these modern skinny jeans by Citizens of Humanity. They are a high-waisted slim fitting jean and are surprisingly comfortable! I also love this medium classic wash because it is good to wear all year round. I’m wearing a size 24 in this trending denim.
