11 Boyfriend Blazers That Make a Powerful Statement
Something Navy Oversized Brushed Plaid Blazer, $295 at Saks Fifth Avenue
Though the precise contrast style worn by Bailon is tough to come by, a similar one, also by Something Navy, is available at Saks Fifth Avenue. Unlike Bailon’s, this one nixes the mixed-plaid contrast in gray and brown in favor of a more streamlined design. The peak lapels, dual pockets, button front and room to breathe are all the same.
