“I’m currently having a love affair with the ‘boyfriend blazer’ trend. It works with just about everything,” Lauren says. “When I purchased [this one from Macy’s], it had some weird decorative pins on the collar. I promptly removed them.”

With this boyfriend blazer, Lauren wore a purple print BCBG skirt and a white tank that came with a multi-chain necklace attached. She says she removes that from time to time, too.
It’s an outfit she says she typically would wear to a party or on a fun night out with the girls.
“The shoes are from … ahem … Charlotte Russe. Can’t beat a shoe bargain from time to time,” she says, and I wholeheartedly agree.
Thanks once again to this week’s Fashion Plate Lauren Mabon, and photographer Annabella Brandon of Asian Bees photography for doing such a fab job shooting Lauren all around the Peabody.
I think we learned a lot, again. For me, this week made me think about the importance of finishing an outfit with a belt or a nice jacket. And Lauren also has a reading recommendation for us: Nina Garcia’s “The Little Black Book of Style.”
“It discusses style and fashions for every occasion,” Lauren says. “It sits on my coffee table, making it easy to find when I want to reference it … and believe me, I do.”
I’d say it’s working.
