My Friends Always Compliment Me When I Wear This Elegant Zara Blazer—It Won’t Be in Stock for Long

There’s been a particular focus on necklines over the past few months. The funnel-neck trend swiftly took over, accentuating coats and integrated into beloved knitwear, and it was only a matter of time before some version of this was applied to all our favourite outerwear. Now, brands have brought high necklines to the classic blazer, and Zara’s style has seriously impressed me.

As far as capsule wardrobe heroes go, the blazer is one we consistently come back to, and for good reason. The structured form brings instant polish to all outfits, whether sharp tailoring or slouchy denim. Now, Zara takes it one step further, accentuating the silhouette with boxy padded shoulders to add extra emphasis to the form of this blazer. Adding the button near the collar also creates a wrap effect, which looks incredibly chic. As a minimalist, the absence of bold colour or patterns means that structure and shape become eye-catching details, and this blazer is sure to turn heads.

The silhouette is slightly oversized, which you can see here. I tend to wear a size small on top and am 5’2″, but here I tried the size medium as I like the oversized fit. The feel is lightweight, ready to be layered up with thermal knits now, thrown over a simple Tee when the weather turns around spring, or worn simply over your shoulders on a summer’s evening. Yes, I’m already planning out all the ways I’ll wear it throughout the year.
