Today's Everyday Fashion: Neon Blazer







































I. love. this. blazer. Not only is it the perfect shade of neon pink, but it's also the most comfortable blazer I own. (It's a stretchy knit, but holds its shape, unlike most knit blazers I've seen.) For my first time wearing it, I got a little inspiration from Olivia Palermo for a night out with my friends! (minus the random green shoes) It was the perfect way to dress up for a chilly night out in Orlando. Pink blazers - on your wish list, rocking it now, or not for you?

Just bought a pink blazer!  Was totally obsessed and stalked it for a while to see if it would go on sale before I caved in and just bought it.

I love the blazer...and especially love that you kept the rest of the outfit simple!

Goodtimegirlari said...

LOVE this look! J-- The Limited just came out with TONS of colorful stuff!! It's so wonderful and it made me think of you :-)

Tamslady said...

Nice outfit.  I think what I like about the radom green shoes in the picture of Oliva P. is that they give the outfit that element of the unexpected, giving her that punch of "style" we are all looking for.

I'm totally wearing the same outfit (except with a striped top and flats since I'm a teacher on my feet all day)!  Great minds think alike! :)

I got my pink blazer last weekend at Gap.  They're already sold out online, but my local store had a pretty good supply.  I love it!

I love your look with the gray top underneath.  I'm super excited to experiment with this blazer.  I tried it on the store with boyfriend jeans and another striped tee and it made for a super cute casual look.

Katie C said...

The pink blazer is fantastic!!! I am totally loving it...

PinQue said...

I am kicking myself for not grabbing the pink blazer at GAP before it was sold out! So many options for spring/summer!

jseverydayfashion said...

I agree, I like the green! But not shiny green satin. *shudders*

ThirdGradeRockStar said...

My Gap store is usually pretty good about checking if another store has one that they can ship.  If you have a Gap card, they'll ship to your house for free.  It's always worth asking.  They've been able to track down several items for me! 

Jessaminute said...

LOVE!

PinQue said...

Great idea! I do have a Gap card, I will have to give them a call this afternoon :) Thanks!!

Hilliary Wolfe said...

I have seen so many bright blazers out this season!  I am stepping out of my neutral shades and starting to work bright color into my wardrobe! 

Lorrie said...

Love the outfit!!  Any chance you know where your friend got her metallic knit top?  I love that too:)

jseverydayfashion said...

Both friends in the middle are wearing metallic knits! :-) The one on the left is from H&M (recent).

Tiffany Elam said...

I love pink blazers. I have a light pink satin one, but the first pick from Forever 21 must be mine.

Ahhh I want that blazer but the nearest HM is 45 mins away!  I wish they sold online!  LOL at forever21 having 3 different pink blazer options. 

Jessica H said...

Love the pink blazer! Its gorgeous!

Pip said...

It looks great on you!  You are nice and tan though, so you can totally rock that neon pink!!!  I actually wore some bright colors today and a neon bracelet today, which is so random for me, but I loved it!  I am actually doing an outfit post tomorrow on how I actually wore bright colors!  LOL!  xx

Thank you! And girl, I would love to have a tan right now but my body has not seen the sun since August!! Glad to hear you are trying out bright colors, I love 'em.

Emilytran said...

I think you rocked it better than Ms. Palermo on the top half! 
You wear the blazer like you own it! :)

I never really thought that a simple blazer in a HOT Color----(e.g., like your gorgeous hot-pink blazer, Above!!)----might *potentially* be considered to be a Wardrobe BASIC like, say, a navy or black blazer is considered to be a
standard Wardrobe Basic!!    Since there's probably at least ONE (very *s.p.e.c.i.f.i.c.*) Hot Color that every person looks great in, (i.e., depending on her individual skin/hair tones!!)............ I could see how, say, a hot-pink blazer might simply become part of an individual's
INITIAL............ "Wardrobe Basics" collection!!   

With your Classic Pink-And-Black Combo, I also really like how you "softened the JOLT" of hot-pink directly against black by............ wearing it ABOVE your black skinnies............ and directly against a "light-black" type of shade, (i.e., your medium heather-gray shirt)!!    That way, it seems like the hot-pink color just gently *eases into* the black color----VIA your gray shirt----you know!!    'Just a really  *s.t.u.n.n.i.n.g.*  outfit, J.!!

Pip said...

Well, you have the most beautiful skin ever!!!  :)

Emily @ Glitz Glam Granola said...

OMG, I'm obsessed with that blazer. I recently tried on a hot pink blazer and am loving the punch of color. It'd be so cute for work too! I must pick it up asap! I like how you kept it simple with the black and grey but I think it'd be fun to colorblock with it too! Perhaps with your cobalt skinnies?!

meghan said...

I love this look. The neon blazer is amazing. I'm swooning over neon colors lately...

I love this look.  

Laurie F. said...

I bought it this weekend too!  :)  I'm wearing it tomorrow for Valentine's day at work.  Paired with a gray kinda ruffley shirt, black skirt, black sling backs, and silver/gray jewelry.   I agree, thanks for the inspiration!  I'm new to your blog, and this is my first outfit I'm wearing that's been inspired by you.  :) 

jseverydayfashion said...

Thanks Laurie! Sounds adorable! Welcome to the blog. :-)
