One summer trend I did not see coming that I am absolutely HERE FOR is blazer and shorts sets. These matching sets have all the power-inducing abilities of work day suits (don’t miss my favorite colored work day suits), but are meant for casual summer wear.
Blazer and shorts sets are quite versatile- you can wear them with a cotton tee and wedges for a Sunday adventure, or can dress up them up with a bralette / crop top for a summer night out.
Stay tuned to the end of this post for a round-up of my favorite blazer and shorts sets available right now. 😊
Blazer & Shorts Set // Bralette // Layered Necklace // Similar Gold Heels – one, two, three
This bubblegum pink blazer and shorts set is under $50, so a great way to try out the trend at an affordable price point if you’re a bit uncertain. I love the long length of the blazer and the 3/4 sleeves which are ever so slightly bell sleeved (see picture below). The shorts aren’t too short (hallelujah!) and are a great high-rise fit.
This set fits true to size – I’m wearing a medium. I used to find that affordable retailers like SheIn ran very small and I would size up to a large. Lately though, they seem to be moving towards North American sizing as I’m now a medium in all of their clothes. (For reference I am a size 4).
The shorts are looser fit around the thigh (which I also love) and they have a really pretty belt detailing attached. For the price, I was very impressed by the quality of this set.
For today’s outfit post I decided to style it in a summer night out look (versus a more conservative day time weekend event). I have the lace bralette in two colors and cannot recommend it enough! It is the perfect staple to wear now and into fall under off the shoulder sweaters and loose v-neck t-shirts.
To accessorize this look I added some layered light gold necklaces and a pair of strappy metallic gold heels. My exact heels are old, but I linked three similar pairs below – all under $150 and one pair under $30 to keep things super affordable for you.
