These days, the blazer mantra seems to be: bigger is better.
Whether you’re looking for a way to jazz up your little black dress for your next date night or simply looking for a way to up the ante of your ultra-short leather skirt, an oversized boxy blazer can be a clever stand-in for one of those statement coats and perfect coverage for your ultra-short choices.
