Black sleeveless blazer, £258, by Elizabeth and James at My-Wardrobe
By Nagar Ghahreman
Sleeveless blazers were all over the s/s09 catwalks, spotted at Alexander Wang, YSL and Phi. A great summer alternative to boyfriend blazers, they can be dressed up or down with ease, are perfect for layering and will take your wardrobe seamlessly into next season. ELLE’s favourite is by the Olsen twin’s brand Elizabeth and James. Team it with skinny jeans and a simple white t-shirt for a pulled together, Helmut Lang inspired look. Add thigh high boots - a major trend for a/w09 – and get ahead now by investing in these vintage look suede boots by Office. Helle’s fan ring and (if you’re brave enough!) Eugenia Kim’s cat ear headband will really make this outfit pop.
