Because it’s on super sale, and it’s something you are going to wear ALL season long.

You know I love a blazer (just search the website for some of my favs), but plaid and houndstooth is hot right now. You know the saying that everything that’s old is new again? Houndstooth was in my wardrobe from the time I was 3 until I was about 7. Always grateful for a stylish mama who had me looking good. Anyway, back to the matter at hand! This style is no exception to the resurgence of many 90’s trends that have made their way back on to store shelves and our closets. I walked by this one so many times and kept asking myself, “Do I really need another blazer?” I finally took the plunge after I was at Target with my friend Pamm and she pretty much said it was mine, and boy am I glad I did. I have been wearing this thing like crazy!

I’m still very traditional, so I appreciate the fact that there are no fancy embellishments with the blazer and that it’s a longer “boyfriend” length. That’s always a plus for the tall ladies like myself. There are shoulder pads woven inside, but, I think I want a little more drama next time, and will be adding some of my own. 😉

I’ve already worn this blazer a few different ways including:

• With a black turtleneck and loafers
• Over a black dress with boots
• Graphic tee and blue jeans

The houndstooth print spruces up anything you pair it with!
