OOTD #9: Sophisticated and Sexy

Hi everyone! The outfit I am posting today is one of my personal favorites! I recently bought a plain black blazer because it is so easy to dress up or down.  This outfit is casual enough to wear anywhere yet it still looks very put together.  Every part of this outfit is affordable and re-creatable.  I recently have been loving blazers and other structured cover-ups instead of sweatshirts because they are just as comfortable yet they look a little more professional.  Also, a lot of the pieces in this outfit can be replaced with others and still look just as cute.

I picked up my black blazer at Forever 21 for $25 and it has black and white stripes on the inside.  I love rolling up the sleeves to have a bit of the pattern showing.  My neon pink camisole is from Tilly's and I believe I paid about $7 for it.  It is one-size fits all, it stretches a lot and it never rides up it's perfect!  My jeans are by the brand Decree and they are my favorite pair of skinny jeans ever!  I believe I paid about $25 for them. They just fit so good! Since it is winter, I put on a pair of black boots.  I've been showing these boots a lot lately but, that is because they honestly go with every outfit.  For this specific look I wanted to maintain the comfy professional style and these don't take away from that at all.  Lastly, I am wearing my turquoise leaf necklace that I have shown in my pleather pants post, but I turned it the other way to make it gold.  I think I like it gold better, but I am glad that it can be worn either way without being obvious that it is faced the wrong way.  I think I paid $9 for it at Rue 21. 


Overall, I think pairing a blazer with jeans gives a relaxed look and is casual to wear virtually anywhere.  To keep it from being too "sophisticated" I added a pop of neon to add interest to the outfit.  Another way to add interest is to wear a pattern on any part of the outfit.  What I mean by this is you could put on patterned skinny jeans, patterned shoes, patterned camisole, or even a patterned blazer! There are so many different ways to manipulate this outfit to make it your own.  To make this even more casual try putting a graphic tee on underneath.  There are many options and I will continue to create different looks with my new jacket.  Let me know if you want an article similar to the pleather jeans for ways to wear a blazer.  I am willing to do any kind of clothing article so if you have any suggestions I would love to hear them!
