When it comes to autumn/winter wear, the first
thing many associate is today’s hot topic: the blazer. In all variations a blazer is timeless, stylish and practical.
A hallmark of traditional British style, the club
blazer is deeply ingrained into the heritage look that has been a major
tradition in sports clubs for decades.
Today’s seasonal essential is both versatile and weather appropriate.
Working in either casual or formal environments, the club blazer sits alongside
a shirt and tie as comfortably as it does with coloured chinos and a polo
shirt.
The heavier composition of the wool cotton mix also
allows it to be utilised as a great
makeshift jacket, especially on days warm enough to forgo a true winter
coat or when you’ve got some expertly crafted layering underneath.
Men’s Club Blazer Lookbook
Look One: Formal-Casual
This dress code is notorious for being deceptively
difficult. With more than a few faux pas being committed on account of it, it’s
important to get it right first time round.
Align your club blazer with a pair of dressier chinos to create a clean-cut look with
heritage roots. Brogues compliment the statesmanship of the blazer
Depending on just how smart or causal the event is,
a tie is certainly an option and always add a pocket square as the devil is in
the details.
Look Two: Winter Warmer
A club blazer doesn’t have to be reserved for more
formal occasions, it can work
exceptionally well within your everyday looks. The addition of a
tailored piece into your casual ensemble will instantly make you look more put
together.
A blazer layered over the top of a roll-neck is an
easy go-to casual look. Opt for coloured styles to inject some personality
while also keeping with the current standout trends. Desert boots are a casual
yet structured choice for your feet.
One of the secrets to a successful autumn/winter
look is perfect layering. Couple a shirt and cable-knit jumper underneath the
blazer – the subtle patterning of the knitwear will again add more texture and
separation to the outfit. Wear jeans on the bottom half to keep the look casual
while emphasising the hardwearing aesthetic. Leather gloves are a perfect autumn/winter
accessory and so much sharper than their knitted counterparts. We posted this story on Facebook too - www.facebook.com/pages/Perry-Club. And don't forget to follow us on Twitter too www.twitter.com/Clubblazer.
