travel essential { the blazer }

I’m off to L.A. this morning, this time for business. One of the most essential items in my suitcase, whether the purpose of the trip be work or play is the blazer; pull jeans, a v-neck tee and flats together for the airport, pair with a pencil skirt or trousers for meetings, and the perfect topper over a cute dress in the evening. Classic navy is my favorite, but this fall I look forward to adding rich jewel tones and leather to my collection.
