The blazer-as-outerwear look can be a great one, particularly if you’re working from home but trying to retain some semblance of your old fashion self. But it can also be a tricky one to pull off — many blazers just don’t look right with casual pants or wear well enough to wear as outerwear.
I’m really intrigued by this fleece blazer from Dudley Stephens — particularly since the white is almost entirely sold out, so I suspect they’ve got a winner here. (They describe Vello fleece like this: “[s]oft, tightly woven and warm, this fabric is most like the “traditional” fabric people associate with fleece (but ours is extra cozy!).”
The black fleece blazer looks like the perfect thing to wear with everything from wide leg crops to ripped jeans as well as your basic work pants. It’s available in sizes XS-XXL, in black, navy, and white (lucky sizes only on the white), for $188.
Random tech question: has anyone else noticed that your cursor disappears when typing comments on Corporette, perhaps when new ads load, and you have to click in the commenting box again to finish typing? I’m trying to troubleshoot this with my ad network but they can’t recreate the problem.
