Who says you have to be a Real Estate Agent to rock a red blazer? Certainly, not me. I stole this particular blazer from my mom’s closet, and I’d say she wore it somewhere between the 80’s and 90’s. Hint being the the 5 lb shoulder pads.
This blazer is definitely a statement piece. Choosing which colors and patters to pair it with depends on your own personal style and mood. Since we were spending a day walking around the beach town of Encinitas, I opted for minimal tones and patterns (not to mention comfy shoes!). I bought this jean shirt ages ago. It’s missing two buttons, but I can’t find it in myself to throw it away. The comfort, fit, and wash are too perfect.
