Would You Wear… a Yellow Blazer?

Sunshine, daffodils, tiny-weenie polka dot bikinis… is there a color more summery than yellow? We simply cannot get enough of the bright hue, most recently in blazer form. Whether you’re headed to your summer internship or just around town, the yellow blazer is versatile and oh-so sartorially perfect.
We suggest pairing a yellow blazer with complimentary colors like blue or purple to make it pop. If your style leans more towards the classics, stay safe by pairing it with black and white.

It looks good but definitely not my thing to wear! Although if I was a bit more bold I’d do it :) It looks really good combined with blue though.
Jessica
i would if i could but yellow is soooooo not my color. clashes with my skin tone. i love the third outfit though
Shubana
I would totally wear it! If… only… it wasn’t so hot outside.
Rachel
Yes yes yes! I’d wear it like the first picture or with a white t-shirt and my new denim hotpants with little white dots :) yay summer!
Shelby
Nice, but yellow’s not my color. I am on the search for a grey blazer though!
Andrea
I LOVE bright and bold blazers. I have one in every colour. They are so versitile and a classic piece that every girl should own. I wear mine all of the time. If they aren’t really your thing Forever 21 always has tons of them for cheap.
Esther
I love bold, bright blazers, but yellow is the only color that I’ve ever found to not look good on me, so this is a pass.
Alyssa Nicole
Love a yellow blazer, looks like I am going thrifting real soon…
Phidias
I like this so much!!!! I don’t think I’d have enough opportunities to wear it though. This has inspired me to consider buying a yellow trenchcoat style raincoat though (I need to buy one desperately).
I like anything that makes me look like paddington bear, tehe hehehehe
Asilia
Yellow with navy blue is a lovely combination. I do not wear much yellow, so I think I will start with a more classic blazer.
Sydney
I’m not very brave with yellow since my skin is yellow toned! But the look is wonderful :)
Z wearing yellow vest
YES! I actually have a yellow vest that is one of my favorite items to wear. It’s more on the mustard shade. I wear it with earth colors or white and brights. I linked to a photo :)

I would totally wear a yellow blazer. I feel like it would broghten up my day and remind me of curious george from when i was little.
Jacque
Of course! In the fall though haha
Lavinia Lee
I would love to but it just would not work for me :)
Ivy
I love the trend, but the options you posted aren’t exactly budget friendly for us college students) :
Alycia
I love blazers, but yellow is the only color i refuse to wear, it really doesn’t look well on me. So no i would not be wearing these blazers
Julia
I have a bright yellow trench coat that I adore and wear with everything, but I’ll have to find a yellow blazer now, too. They’re so cute!
Alina
I love bright colours! But I feel for a yellow blazer you’d have to get the EXACT right shade for your skin color and have it made of some quality material or it’d look completely tacky and ridiculous.
Jaclyn
Yellow is not really my color, but a good blazer sharpens up everything!

Rin
Yes! I recently purchased a buttery yellow jacket and can’t wait to wear it for fall.
Katelyn
I blog about my yellow blazer outfit tomorrow. I love blazers. They help outfits transition well from work to play. Beware though – you may get a Dick Tracy comparison!
Katrina
I would! Yellow isn’t really my traditional color, but I found an $11 yellow tweedish blazer at Target and thought that it would be kind of a funky piece to spice up my wardrobe.. Plus for $11, it was worth the risk! I’ve worn it with dark jeans, black flats, a white silky top, and a gold/black statement necklace and got lots of compliments! But I’m not used to having yellow in my wardrobe, so thanks for the tips of other ways to wear it!
