FEW WARDROBE staples surpass want to need–let alone stand the test of time. Enter the blazer: the tailored jacket that promptly elevates any look and never goes out of style.

Black blazers have the power to take an outfit as simple as jeans and a t-shirt to an office or event-appropriate look. All clothing communicates and your blazer is saying that you mean business (or are being respectful of a specific dress code). In terms of formality, a blazer is a high step up from casual dressing and falls just below needing to wear a proper suit. Opting into a darker color palette signals refinement and is appropriate for both daytime work wear and evening events. The black blazer is a classic staple that will keep you looking crisp at weddings, upgraded days at the office, nice dinners out, and pretty much any occasion labeled as cocktail attire.
