The One Outfit Formula that Works Every Time

Over 40 Dallas fashion bloggers showing how to style blazers and jeans.

Blazers and jeans: the one outfit formula that literally works every time!  In fact, if I had to pick the one thing that I wear most often it would be just that.  If you’re wondering how to style blazers and jeans in 2023 then grab your coffee and get comfortable because you’re in for a real treat!  Blazers and jeans are both hero pieces essential to any functional wardrobe.  Having at least a few well-fitting blazers as well as a few good-fitting pairs of jeans is key if you want getting dressed to seem easy each morning.

In today’s post, I’m featuring 5 BLAZERS AND DENIM looks that are perfect for so many different occasions. From a Sunday brunch to an intimate date night, even an important office meeting, we’ve got you covered! So, stick around if you love wearing blazers and jeans as much as we do!

SHOP LOOK 1:

EVEREVE BLAZER:

The first blazer featured in this guide for how to style blazers and jeans is this black & white plaid jacket from Evereve. I adore a classic plaid pattern and so do my fellow Chic at Every Age girls! I do find it fits slightly small so if you are in between sizes, I suggest going up on size, I’m wearing an XS.

VERONICA BEARD JEANS:

I chose these Dylan jeans from Veronica Beard to pair with the Evereve blazer because the vintage black wash pairs perfectly with the black & white shades in the blazer. The high waist and straight-leg style are incredibly flattering and these amazing jeans are also ON SALE for just over $100! That’s almost 2/3 off, which is an amazing deal. I’m wearing a size 24 and I find they fit true to size.

VERONICA BEARD MILLER JACKET:

The next look in this guide for how to style blazers and jeans features the infamous Balmain blazer. This is seriously one of the best investment pieces I own because I’ve had it for years and I wear it all the time! It’s always a top seller here on my blog and for good reason because the fit is impeccable and it can be worn literally anywhere. So, if you need a fabulous blazer to take you from the office to happy hour and everywhere in between, this one is your best bet! I’m wearing a size 0 and the fit is true to size.

BUDGET-FRIENDLY VERSION:

This Lilysilk blazer is a fantastic dupe for the Veronica Beard one above, even the hardware is similar! I actually own this one as well, and I wear it almost as much as my Miller blazer. The silk lining is heavenly and also helps keep me from getting overheated when I’m wearing layers. If the Balmain blazer is simply out of your budget, this would definitely be my next choice!

SHOP NOW

AGOLDE 90'S PINCH WAIST JEANS:

I’ve featured these flattering jeans a ton lately and for good reason! These jeans by Agolde are the ideal pair of denim in my opinion. This high waist and straight leg style are super flattering on almost any body type. I also love the medium wash because it goes with almost everything AND can be worn year-round. I’m wearing a size 24 in this versatile pair of jeans.

LAVENDER BLAZER (GREAT PRICE POINT):

As soon as I saw the GORGEOUS lavender shade of this blazer I knew it was coming home with me! I love the oversized fit and this blazer is versatile enough to take you straight from the office to a dinner date no problem. I’m wearing an XS in this very affordable option for how to style blazers and jeans and if you would like a bit of a more fitted look, I would suggest sizing down.

SHOP NOW

AGOLDE RILEY'S:

Cropped jeans are the perfect option for how to style blazers and jeans in the spring & summer. This pair from Agolde is one of my faves and for good reason! The fit is impeccable and the medium wash goes with almost anything. I’m wearing a size 24 in these flattering jeans.

KAREN MILLEN SATIN BLAZER (20% OFF WITH CODE HEATHER20):

Look #4 for how to style blazers and jeans features this luxurious cropped satin blazer from Karen Millen. I love the reinforced shoulders for adding structure to this look and the cropped style keeps it on trend. I’m wearing a size 2 in this blazer that happens to be ON SALE and you can get a further 20% off with code HEATHER20!

SHOP NOW

KSUBI JEANS:

These Playback jeans by Ksubi are a fantastic style between straight-leg and wide-leg jeans, making them a great option to tip-toe into wearing wide-leg denim. They feature another great medium wash that works year-round and they even have a sexy slit at the ankle to turn it up a notch! I’m wearing a size 24 in this example of how to style blazers and jeans.

SHOP LOOK 5:

FREE PEOPLE BLAZER:

If you are looking for the structure of a blazer but with a more casual vibe, this jacket from Free People is the perfect candidate! It even has a bit of a cargo feel to it which is trending hard right now. My one piece of advice would be to pair this jacket with ANY other style of denim besides cargo jeans since you really CAN have too much of a good thing. I’m wearing an XS in this casual chic blazer.

SHOP NOW

EXPRESS JEANS (UNDER $70):

Last but not least in this guide for how to style blazers and jeans is this amazing pair of black-washed denim from Express. These are actually the skyscraper jeans I’ve featured before but in a vintage black wash that is to die for! I also love that you can order different lengths in these SUPER affordable jeans. I’m wearing a size 0 regular.
