Boo and stuff Shirt

I bought my leather blazer jacket from & Other Stories in January 2020, after searching on Depop for pre-loved versions – and since then, I’ve never looked back. Mine is a longline, sightly slouchy, oversized silhouette. I wear it over floaty day dresses to sharpen them up if I’m heading out for lunch – and it works over evening appropriate garms or loungewear (hoodies, tracksuit bottoms and the Boo and stuff Shirt Also,I will get this like), too. My most worn combo? My women’s leather blazer with jeans and a crisp white shirt, t-shirt or sweater vest (which I wear on rotation for office days and at shoots). The only thing it doesn’t work with is leather trousers. Although, that could be just me. If you have a pair of patent leggings or a silver pair of leather jeans and some sky-high platforms, I’ve a feeling it could work.

If I’ve convinced you that there’s a double-breasted blazer-shaped hole in your wardrobe, let’s get into the Boo and stuff Shirt Also,I will get this nitty gritty. Real leather tends to cost more (but not necessarily), while high street faux leather blazers can be had for less than $40. It’s up to you if you follow the sustainable advice to spend more and wear your garments for longer. I’ve definitely aced the #30WearsChallenge from my blazer (wearing your clothes longer aims to cut down the impact of their creation). Many brands now flag their leather as being chrome-free and chrome tanning is often cited as a cause of pollution – but faux leather is made from plastic-derived sources… Again, it’s your call what you decide to do, although reading our vegan leather debate might help… As well as the high street faux leather blazers we’ve found, there are some amazing designer versions in vegan leather too – so don’t think that you can only find leather styles if you have a bigger budget.
