Buy/Borrow/Steal: The White Blazer Edition

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday July 4, 201162 comments

White is one of the trendiest colours for this spring and summer: Alexander Wang dressed his models head-to-toe in white; Alexander McQueen gave us a number of all-white looks as well; even at Chanel, white was heavily used as main pieces, as trim or in accessories.

A crisp, well-tailored blazer is a staple item that every woman should own. For summer, why not try one in white? The white blazer can add a burst of freshness to an otherwise boring outfit. The look is chic, clean cut and definitely wearable for anyone. Just make sure to carry around your stain-remover stick… 


We've picked three white blazers at three different price points. The catch? We aren't telling you how much each one is or where we found them! Here's why:

1. Leave us a comment telling us which one you'd like to buy, which one you'd like to borrow and which one you'd like to steal!
2. If you are really feeling clever, tell us which one is the least expensive, which one is in the mid-range and which one is the most expensive. 

Remember that if you are not a member, you must leave your email address with your comment, why not become a member though? Register over here, it is super easy!
 
You have until Monday July 11th, 2011. That week, we will randomly select one of the comments to win a prize! Happy guessing!

Update! Here are the prices and brands for the three white blazers: 
Blazer #1: Smythe Linen One Button Jacket (US$575.00) 
Blazer #2: Banana Republic Sateen One Button Jacket (C$195.00)
Blazer #3: Forever 21 Striped French Cuff Blazer (C$33.80)

Are you surprised?

I'd buy blazer #3. It looks like it would work well casually during the day with jeans and flats and could easily be dressed up at night with the right accessories! (I also think it is the least expensive out of the three). I LOVE #1 but don't think I would get as much use out of is so would steal it from my sister's closet ;-) I like the length of the sleeves and the position of the button, higher up than an average blazer. #2 looks like your classic blazer. I'd borrow it to wear to work and think this is the most pricey blazer of the 3!

#2 definitely looks like the most expensive, #1 looks mid-range, and #3 looks the cheapest.

Buy #2, borrow #3 as I not sure on the shorter look for me and steal #1. As for price #1 most exp, then #2 and #3 the least expensive.

White blazers are so pretty! But I do feel like you have to get the right size and style or else it might look like you're wearing a lab coat.
