Jeans and a blazer is such an effortlessly chic combination for daytime wear. Elevate the look by opting for a black blazer, black turtleneck, light wash jeans, and a gold belt.
The black turtleneck peeking out from underneath the unbuttoned blazer adds visual interest. Cuffing the jeans also helps showcase the belt buckle more.

Here’s another black blazer outfit idea that works nicely for the office or business casual occasions. Simply pair a black blazer with a striped top, black trousers and black loafers.
Tuck just the front portion of the striped top into the trousers for a bit of detail. This gives the outfit shape without looking overly done.
