The One Item No Self-Respecting Minimalist Should Be Without

We talk at length about wardrobe staples, aka the pieces every woman needs to get dressed chicly on a daily basis. From a go-to pair of jeans to the pared-back accessories that make every outfit look expensive, we're firm believers that it's often the simplest pieces have the biggest impact on our style. And that can certainly be said of a certain influencer must-have…
Lately, the minimalists we follow all seem to be sporting one specific buy: a beige blazer. Typically oversized, it somehow manages to make their ensembles look even glossier. Worn with everything from jeans and clunky brogues to swishing midi skirts and floral minidresses, we have a hunch that this will be the hardest-working piece in our wardrobes before long.
Fortunately, there's no shortage of options to choose from. From H&M's frugal £35 offering to The Row's exceptionally chic £3180 collarless iteration, there's a beige blazer to suit every budget and brand affinity. You know what to do—keep scrolling for outfit inspiration; then shop our edit of the best beige blazers on offer.
