Look for Less: Contrast Trim Blazer




Blazers are perfect wardrobe staples year-round, but they're especially helpful for transitioning into fall. This contrast trim blazer by Sanctuary (left) - inspired no doubt by last season's Balenciaga runways - exudes style, yet it's basic enough to go with most anything in your closet. At $189, it's not entirely unreasonable for something you'll wear time and time again. The AE blazer on the right, however, costs a more manageable $59.50 and looks oh-so-similar. What's more, both options will be right in step with this Fall's "country life" trend, whether you hail from the hood or the highlands.

Left: Sanctuary Mademoiselle Blazer at RevolveClothing.com, $189
Right: Contrast Trim 2-Button Blazer at AE.com, $59.50

I love the blazer! I have an admiration for classic black n white combination. I think I will be buying it - I might even just splurge and get the expensive one, a good investment =)
