This article is all about classy ways to style a gray blazer in winter and fall
In the 90s and early 2000s, a grey blazer was considered part of the office uniform. You’d see it mostly in businesswomen, lawyers, receptionists, and bankers.
However, the grey blazer (and blazers in general) has become a staple in the past few years. The perfect layer that makes any outfit go from basic to cute.
Adding a blazer to our everyday outfits has been one of the best fashion decisions ever. It helps us feel more cute, elegant, and empowered, just like those gorgeous businesswomen, and that’s because we’re also businesswomen!
But, in this blazer revolution, we got so comfortable with black blazers that we often forget how chic and beautiful grey ones are! (Not to mention a white one)

Classy ways to style a grey blazer in Winter and Fall
Grey blazer styled with an animal print top or bottom
Animal print pieces are having a comeback this year, and we cannot be happier about it.
A jaguar print long sleeve or a snake print skirt are two incredibly chic pieces to style your grey blazer. They add a little spice to the look without being too flashy.

Note: If you’re wearing an animal print piece, you need to keep the rest of the outfit simple color-wise. Don’t style animal print shirts or skirts with other flashy-colored pieces; it’ll look tacky and cheap.
Grey blazer with leather skirt or pants
A leather bottom is the best way to style a grey blazer. It’s simple, minimalist and elegant.

Grey blazer with a pop of burgundy
One of the best ways to avoid looking too gloomy with a grey blazer is to add a pop of burgundy. Or an all-burgundy outfit!

Or, if you’re totally obsessed with burgundy clothes like me, you can wear an all-burgundy outfit and layer it up with a grey blazer. Don’t worry, it won’t look tacky. Burgundy is dark as wine, so it’ll blend in perfectly with the opaqueness of grey.

There’s nothing more classy than an all-white outfit, especially in winter and fall.
So, one of the most classy ways to style a grey blazer (or any blazer in general) is with an all-white outfit. It’s classy, and it gives ‘quiet luxury’ vibes.
