Longing for long blazers and vests

What was first seen as women borrowing men’s pieces to look sharp has definitely gone further. This seasons translation talks about longer blazers and vests than most are used to. The focus on lower hemlines, those that fall past the hip down to the knee or lower, emphasize one of the strongest and cleverest fall looks for both men and women.

Long love story short, tailoring has won us over time and time again. It’s impeccable finishes and structured silhouettes bring us back to the basics: blazers. In case you don’t already own one, take note on acquiring one that fits you perfectly. Vegas’ is a vibrant city where everyone needs to own at least one clean, constructed look.

A blazer will pull together whatever you are wearing. This season’s trendier long ones add to both men and women’s fashion flare. They fall right in between a jacket and a coat, and can be styled to look great with anything. Take in account they will almost always be the structured piece to your outfit, but their mid-length whether worn on cropped or skinny pants, regular pants for guys, or even over skirts or dresses, will be the basic piece in your outfit that will grab the attention.

Together with amazing long blazers, long vests are the trendiest twist. They will make your look cohesive, and will add definition to your regular attire. Be playful and choose any of these two pieces, opposite to whatever you are wearing underneath. If you go for a structured one-tone blazer or vest, go for a silky, delicate blouse, dress, or slouchy pant underneath. Try to either contrast fabrics in order to make a statement, or go for a total look that brings a tailored blazer or vest, and a pair of cropped pants together as a one-tone ensemble.

Guys can also choose to pair accordingly or contrast fabrics and silhouettes to look more fashion forward. Long vests can go with slimmer jeans for a younger look, or a longer hemmed blazer with traditional trousers for a formal but still forward alternative.

The key to rocking these longer pieces is to try them on with heels. Either high for the ladies, or one-inch for guys, they are key in making your overall shape seem longer, taller, and making your outfit pop with sophistication.

Add a final touch with a long accessory such as a metallic necklace or cuffs when wearing a long vest. They are the way to bringing attention to the skin baring sections of your ensemble.

Whichever long blazer or vest seems your favorite, be smart about its fabric, and how it plays out with what you have already got to pair it with in your wardrobe. Both pieces are great to dress up or down and can be worn all around to make you look completely fashion-savvy.
