Pink Blueberry
Blazers has always been a wardrobe essential. With the right fit, a good blazer can instantly dress up jeans, skirts, the LBDs, shorts and even leggings. Although a basic black blazer is simply one of the most versatile item and can go with virtually everything…a cheerfully bright blazer can do the same and can bring instant glam into your wardrobe.

Don’t be fool by the bright pink color of this blazer. With the right outfit you can take this from playtime to business hours….but as you can see I’m all about playtime these days, so mixing this vibrant structured blazer with blue floral shorts and adding a splash of leopard completed the fun summertime vibe I was going for. Hey, living in the Bay Area, the weather is quite unpredictable (not to mention bi-polar) so I need to take full advantage of all the summertime outfits while I can :)
In addition to pink, here are my summer’s favorite hues for blazers. Would you wear any of these and if so, which is your favorite?
Zara yellow blazer, J. Crew green blazer,
Topshop coral ponte boyfriend blazer, ASOS purple peplum blazer $58
Thanks for stopping by the blog loves! TGIF and have a wonderful weekend! xo
Blazers are definitely a staple in my closet. I have one in every color-besides pink-go figure. Love how you played with the color by adding different prints-so sassy!

P.P.S. And yes, those were totally the leather shorts I was wearing during that one hot day in SF! Leather short shorts + hot leather seats = one no go, oops. Lol, lesson learned!
LOL, ouch!!
You look amazing yet again! I really enjoy the juxtaposition between the classic structure of the blazer and the extremely bright color! And how the hot pink colorblocks the royal blue printed shorts in a way that’s way too perfect. Those leopard slippers are the pièce de résistance to the outfit–that small hint of leopard is just too much fun!

Thanks Sharon and you should do the same when you come to SF! :)
Gorgeous! I absolutely love the blazer. What a great color! I’m starting to obsess over colored blazers especially pastels nowadays. You definitely pulled off the shorts. You look great. I could never pull that off. You always make everything look like a magazine editorial, and I love it! :)
Wow I love this outfit. Such a great sport casual ensemble. The blazer is a fabulous color.

You have some killer legs, girl! I love how you styled the pink blazer. I have a serious obsession with blazers (I have over 25 hanging in my closet…) My friend recently asked me to do a post on how to style them 3 different ways and I chose my pink blazer too! I put together a work, lunch/errands, and a night out outfit. The post is here: http://www.thebaloneybug.com/2012/05/28/guest-post-my-favorite-closet-staple-worn-3-ways-by-really-renata/
