If you can’t, for the life of you, figure out what to wear right now— don’t worry, you’re not alone. I think I speak for all of us all when I say we’re feeling the same— especially when one minute spring is in full swing and the next it’s time to bring those wool coats out again. It’s during these awkward transitional times that us Who What Wear editors turn to our most reliable outfits. The ones we know, whatever the weather, will make us look effortless and feel our best.
When in doubt, simple and effective is our motto and the look in particular I’ve been reaching for over and over again recently is the classic blazer-and-legging combo. It’s comfy thanks to the leggings, and it’s polished thanks to the blazer, which just so happens to also be the perfect spring jacket layer. So really, it’s a win-win, and the best part is that this pairing can be reimagined in so many different ways to keep it feeling fresh all season.
Below, I’ve found six blazer-and-legging looks that feel especially current. They range from celebrity-inspired (thanks Kendall & Rosie) to influencer-approved, but they all involve winning, minimalist (read: easy to style) combos that work for throwing on in the morning right now while we wait for the warmth of summer to hit.
Whether you prefer boots, heels, or flat shoes; tweed, classic or leather blazers; stirrup, split-hem or standard leggings— there’s outfit inspo here to suit everyone’s taste, and some you can probably even put together from pieces you already own. Plus, they’ll all take you from meetings, to the office, to drinks and dinner with the girls, with hardly any effort made at all.
