Blazer: Grayes (similar here and here); Top: Aritzia (similar here and here); Jeans: Topshop (similar here and here); Shoes: Zara (similar here and here); Necklace: Elle Louise

By rule of thumb, there are a few items that every girl should have in their wardrobe, a black blazer being one of them. Sadly enough, after a wonderful 4 years together, I had to let my old black blazer go. Fortunately enough, I found a replacement in the form of this boyfriend blazer from Grayes, a new brand that specializes in elevated work wear. My office doesn’t have a dress code, so I styled my blazer with distressed boyfriend jeans, but it works equally well with a pencil skirt or wide leg pants.

Do you have a must-have for your wardrobe?

    Your new black blazer is amazing!!! You always look so sophisticated and put together, Siffat! My closet staple is a black leather jacket that I can throw on any outfit in case it’s a little chilly <3

    Love that blazer! It’s definitely a must have piece in every girl’s closet. I also feel a leather jacket, great pair of jeans and white shirt are in must-have category 🙂

    Black blazers are so versatile and fabulous! I love how you paired an item that could come across as dressy with a more toned down look. Very polished and chic!

    Yes, I completely agree with you that a black blazer is a staple item every woman should have. Yours is so pretty and I really like how you paired it with distressed jeans for a dressed down look.

    Loving those jeans with that black blazer! I can only wish my office didn’t have a dress code. We have casual days, but distressed jeans aren’t part of them 🙁
