Ladies, I want to buy a blazer and I need your help...?

Question

I wanna buy a blazer to wear with some dark blue jeans and black loafers, most likely I'll be wearing a nice button up shirt underneath the blazer.

What color blazer do you think works best with the combination I mentioned above (black, navy blue, grey, etc)? What combo (color blazer/color button-up shirt) do you think looks best on a guy? I want to be able to go to a nice dinner or a club with this outfit.

Answer 1

Go with a classic black pinstripe blazor. This way you can pair it with any color button up and still look hot with jeans for a night out.

Answer 2

Well, it sounds like you have a general idea of what you're going to wear. Good!

Since you'll be wearing this blazer to a club and to dinner, you should get one that will work in both casual and more formal situations (unless dinner is casual - but either way it's a good way to have an outfit for any situation)

As for color, here's what I'd suggest:
combo1 - grey blazer/navy blue button up
combo2 - black blazer/any color button up

Here are the pros/cons of each [for blazers]:
combo1 - PRO: grey is a color that works well in both casual and formal situations, and you could easily pair it with your desired color button up CON: although grey looks great with dark wash jeans, if you did want to wear the blazer with a lighter wash [for a more casual look], it would look slightly strange
combo2 - PRO: black goes with everything!! and it generally looks good in any situation CON: ...except if you're really going casual. generally, you'd aim for something lighter. also, if you did want to stand out, black isn't a great choice (then again, neight is grey... but never mind)

so, in the end just go for what looks good on you.
have fun!

Answer 3

I would go with a dark black pinstripe blazer. It doesn't go out of style. If you're wanting to do something more funky to wear with jeans and t-shirts - go for a corduroy blazer, those are always cute too.

Can't beat a pinstripe blazer though. Typically you can get a good one at Gap or Banana Republic or even H&M!

Answer 4

haha I think its really adorable that your so concerned.

It depends on what color shirt you wear. Don't wear a white shirt, thats too generic. Wear a pastel color shirt to brighten up your look. I would buy a black or gray blazer- one you can wear time and time again, but is still classic.

dark jeans
pastel pink button down shirt (if your a real man ;) )
black loafers
black blazer
*if you wear a belt, make sure its BLACK... always match your shoes to your belt- if you dont it looks really tacky.

Good luck!

Answer 5

Get a blue pinstripe shirt and a black blazer. This combo will look good if you have brown or blonde hair. Hope this helps good luck!.

Answer 6

probably a nice casual black blazer, or a black on with a tiny gray knit in it. actually, a pinstripe one would look good for a funkier look. for the button down, i would say if ur eyes are blue, a nice light blue to bring out ur eyes, or a green one if you have green eyes. if u have brown eyes DO NOT wear a brown button down. or a light yellow, or any light color that complements your skin tone and style. if you dont want to deal with color, a nice white button down is always in style.

Answer 7

blue jeans
black shoes
black blazer/grey shirt
grey blazer/ black shirt

Answer 8

nicely you're on the main magnificent lines - ebay does this way of good form of jackets and blazers. attempt looking interior the classic area. you will get a special blazer which will look outstanding! plus that's going to be extra much less costly ^_^

Answer 9

Gray or Black.
I think depending on where you are going, you should be able to wear that attire. However, some places frown upon blue jeans... so I guess you will have to make that determination based on the location.

Answer 10

i would go with black or pinstripe blazer with a white shirt underneath
