Achieving a polished look effortlessly can be as simple as adding a tailored item to your look.
What this means is, you don’t need a designer wardrobe … you just need to add some key investment pieces. By this, we mean pieces that are good quality – so they’ll last – and that are timeless in style – so you’re not just shopping for trends. A tailored blazer is one of these pieces. This wardrobe staple is something you’ll reach for when those big business meetings come up, it can be a great accessory to your eveningwear and it can elevate your street-style outfit to look effortlessly chic.

Let us show you how…
In the look pictured here, we’ve paired a tank (and you could easily use a basic tee too) with wide-leg denim jeans … it’s a throw-back to the 90s which is popular among fashion circles at the moment. Again, any jeans will do. Pointed-toe heels help to give that longer-leg look (who doesn’t want that!), and we’ve accessorised with chunky earrings and a neckerchief. Adding the Tailored Oversized Blazer is what gives this look a polished, elegant and effortless feel.
You can easily try this look with any of the blazer’s in your wardrobe – and tag @thepiebald on Instagram if you do … we’ll send you a little something to say thank you!
The Tailored Oversized Blazer pictured was designed specifically for The Piebald Boutique … it’s a trendy spin on a timeless classic. We sourced magnificent suit fabric (it's silky soft to touch) for the blazer which is double-breasted with big, shiny buttons (these were top of our lists of musts!). There's also a hidden button on the inside of the blazer so everything is held together when buttoned-up. You can also choose to style the pockets in two different ways ... tucked in or out. The sleeves and shoulders are true-to-size while the rest deliberately gives you the slouchy silhoutte that’s oh-so desirable these days and is a recurring fashion trend. There's a little slit at the back of the blazer for breathing space.
We stock the blazer in S, M and L. Click here for all the sizing details.
