Mixing the sophistication of tailoring and the effortless style of a slouchy silhouette, an oversized blazer is a true wardrobe staple.
One of my favourite transitional pieces, once autumn rolls around I throw one on over most my outfits before I have to switch them out for longline coats.
From the classic blazer, jeans and white T-shirt ensemble to elevating your athleisure, or wearing one to sharpen up an otherwise very feminine midi skirt, they can be worn over just about anything.
Whether you're looking for a chic black oversized blazer, an autumn-ready tweed oversized blazer, royal-approved neutrals or hot pink hues, I've found something to suit every outfit.
Royals and celebrities wearing oversized blazers
A capsule wardrobe essential, oversized blazers have been seen on everyone from Princess Kate to Emily Ratajkowski. Proving it's a royal-worthy look, Kate often wears one over a pair of wide-leg tailored trousers for public engagements, while I've spotted Emily nailing casual-cool in several pieces, from black leather to houndstooth, styled with straight-leg jeans and heeled boots.
Kate Hudson made a case for a pinstripe piece worn with jeans and loafers, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley gave me all of the outfit goals, adding an androgynous edge to her silk midi skirt with her camel blazer. Just add a pair of heels and oversized sunglasses for a very chic autumn outfit.
