The Best Layering Accessory for Spring

Blazers are THE best layering accessory for spring. With bright colors and new playful patterns, these structured jackets are no longer just for the office. This spring’s blazers are perfect for any occasion. Wear a pastel moto jacket with a lacy spring dress or rock a boyfriend blazer with floral skinny jeans. As another stylist friend of mine recently reminded me, we all look waaay skinnier and more put together in a blazer. I’m wearing my favorite Theory blazer as I write this!
Any way you wear it, you’re sure to look amazing!
