Five ways to rock an oversized blazer

From Sonam to Zara, learn how to style this season staple from the celebrity fashionistas themselves

If there’s one item of clothing that’s all the rage this fall fashion season, it’s the oversized blazer. According to Vogue, an incredibly versatile closet staple, the oversized blazer can be styled in a multitude of ways.

If you prefer more of an androgynous look, you can pair it with some loose-fitting pants, and if your style leans more towards the feminine side, you can wear the oversized blazer over a dress as well. If you’re unsure of how to style this season’s hottest trend, then have no fear, we have compiled a list of our favourite celebrity looks incorporating the piece.

From Sonam Kapoor’s teal number worn over a flowy dress to Hailey Bieber’s leather blazer rockstar look, here are five ways to style an oversized blazer.

Zara’s black blazer with a desi twist

We absolutely adore this look! Zara Peerzada elevated a classic white tee, blue jeans and black blazer combo with the addition of a traditional nath. The outfit is a trusted look on its own, but with the addition of the jewellery, it instantly gives off a whole new vibe. The cat-eye sunglasses and bold lip take the look to the next level, adding a dose of glamour to the overall outfit. If you aren’t comfortable rocking an elaborate nose ring like Zara, opt for a pair of jhumkay, bangles or a black metal choker for a similar vibe.    

Sonam’s dress and blazer combo

The colour of Sonam Kapoor’s blazer is stunning, and we love the fact that she’s paired it with a mauve dress that compliments the teal perfectly. The brown leather belt and the rolled-up sleeves make the look casual, yet also suitable for semi-formal events. The brown leather bag goes really well with the whole look and the smokey makeup keeps it from falling too far into the ‘causal’ category. The spectacles on top of Sonam’s head, as well as the hair bun, give the look a bookish vibe, and we absolutely love it!

Mehek’s pink and purple look

Here’s an example of how to mix and match solid separates for a uber chic and fashionable look. Mehek Saeed pairs the hot pink pants with the purple oversized blazer to perfection, and the neon green heels add an extra pop of colour we didn’t even know we needed! The sleek hair, parted down the middle, keeps the look clean, and the fact that Mehek has gone minimal with the jewellery is a decision we can definitely get behind since the colourful outfit stands perfectly well on its own.

Kendall’s dual-textured blazer

A great outfit option for the fashionistas who just can’t settle on one look! We love this quirky dual-textured blazer Kendall Jenner is sporting, with one side a classic black blazer and the other incorporating some tweed to make things more interesting. We’re loving the giant leather bag, and the fact that Kendall has gone with a simple white tee and straight-leg pants keeps the look from going too over the top, something that you should be wary of when opting for such a head-turner.

Hailey’s leather jacket-blazer hybrid

We adore the rockstar-chic vibes Hailey Bieber is serving in this look. The oversized leather blazer works very well with the fitted dress on the inside, and the heels add a touch of glamour to the edgy look. The open hair compliments the look perfectly, and the pop of green from the bag Hailey is carrying adds another layer to the outfit.
