8 Ways To Style A Navy Blazer
A navy blazer is one of the most elegant and timeless pieces of clothing you can invest in because the navy is considered elegant, sophisticated, and chic. If you aren’t sure how to style a navy blazer, I will show you eight ways you can effortlessly do this.
These outfit combinations are classic, timeless, a bit Parisian, and elegant. In addition, navy is said to be a color that exudes power and authority.
Personally, navy is my absolute favorite color to wear during any season. Over the last few years, I have really embraced navy and have played with different ways to wear it with blazers, silk tops, sweaters, and even coats.
Types Of Navy Blazers
When looking for a navy blazer there are several different types you can choose from depending on the style you’re going for.
You could go with a very basic navy blazer like this one from J.Crew or this one from Banana Republic; both of these blazers are sleek and classic and go with basically anything. But if you want something more oversized and not plain navy, go with this pinstripe.
For a bit of a dressier look, you could style a navy blazer that has gold buttons like my two favorites from Sandro and Sézane.

When To Wear A Navy Blazer
There is no specific time that isn’t a good time to wear a navy jacket. You can easily wear one on the weekends for a more casual vibe with a striped shirt and denim. Or dress the blazer up for a more formal event, such as work or a special occasion, with matching pants or even a dress.
What Color Combinations To Wear With A Classic Navy Blazer
Navy can be considered neutral because you can wear it with many other color combinations, such as beige or khaki, gray, white, my personal favorite black, and even brighter colors like pink and green.

Thank you for providing such stylish ideas on ways to wear a navy blazer! My deep navy blazer has gold toned buttons which I’d like to replace with either deep navy blue or black buttons. Which color button is more classy?
Hi Sheryl,
Yes, I absolutely love a navy blazer even with gold buttons. I would take it to your tailor and ask them what kind of buttons they have they can show you and make your decision based off that. I think either color is great but probably the deep navy.
Hope that helps,
