White, ivory, cream… it doesn’t matter which color you choose. Having a light colored blazer in your closet is a game changer and a regular addition to the capsule wardrobes I create on Wardrobe Oxygen.

Not only does it have beautiful decor that beautifully matched with my navy… Continue Reading What I Wore: Shades of Blue
