I'm a pro shopper and these are the 7 best blazers to shop this fall

A great blazer is an investment you'll never regret. It can make your old pair of jeans suddenly look sophisticated, bring polish to skirts and dresses and give a touch of sophistication and structure to any fall outfit. We love how these versatile toppers can travel with us from the grocery store to the office to a casual weekend brunch. And this season, we are so excited for the newest fall styles. From classic tweeds to a surprising cotton knit to a subtly sultry style with a peep of satin. We are so excited about what fall 2024 is bringing to the blazer game.

As someone who literally shops for a living and spends eight hours a day scouring the internet for the best fashions around, I've rounded up the seven best blazers to shop this fall. These favorites have me stopping in my tracks and asking myself, "How many blazers does one woman need?" The answer? "Definitely more than I initially thought."

We love the longer length of this classic black blazer. Reviewers say it's the ideal lightweight layering piece for fall and looks just as good when worn with trousers or a pencil skirt as it does when kept casual with jeans and sneakers. Bonus: It's got a tiny bit of spandex — adding to its versatility — and it's machine-washable. One shopper writes, "This jacket is a fantastic find! Lightweight with the perfect amount of stretch. The color is a great neutral and can be worn with so many things. I plan on getting other colors because I love it so much!"

For a more structured option with "stealth wealth" appeal, check out this double-breasted style from J.Crew. It's cut slightly shorter for a modern yet elegant look and nips at the waist, giving a distinctly feminine silhouette.

Made from a herringbone Italian wool blend, this sleek and stylish blazer is fully lined and has a notch lapel and two welt pockets with flaps. Even better, it contains wool from certified farms that, according to the brand, "take a responsible approach to managing their land and caring for their sheep," so you can feel good about your purchase.

This plaid blazer has a more casual, oversized style, but with its lightly padded shoulders, it never looks too slouchy or messy. The wool blend makes it a warmer option and the single-button closure gives it an effortlessly cool vibe. 

Customers love how versatile the outerwear is but did note it runs large, so be sure to check the size chart before buying. "Really nice, well-made jacket, can be worn with trousers for business casual or jeans for just plain casual. Looks nice with a belt as well. Does run large — I ordered a 4 based on the size chart and allowing room for the option of a sweater underneath, but wound up sizing down to a 0," says one.

Celebs like Eva Longoria and Bella Hadid are all over the revival of the 80's oversized blazer trend. While the overall silhouette has a boxy fit, the sleeves of this well-structured option are more fitted to prevent you from looking like you put on your dad's blazer. A jacket like this looks so chic with a fitted black turtleneck. For the full power suit vibe, the brand has two matching pant styles to complete the suit set: a pleated pant and a tapered option.

Love the structure of a blazer but covet the coziness of a soft sweater? Check out this 100% organic cotton knit option. The cardigan/blazer combo has a relaxed fit, roomy pockets and slightly cropped bracelet-length sleeves (ideal for showing off your accessories). And it comes in 12 easy-to-compliment colors. "This is really nice. Made well. Looks professional without being stuffy. I like that the sleeves are 3/4 so you are not pushing them up all the time," writes one five-star reviewer.

For an option that will look so polished during dressier events this holiday season, this style has an elevated satin lapel that's a combo of sexy and chic. The blazer itself has a slight stretch to it for a comfortable fit and it's size-inclusive too! Not only can you choose between sizes XXS to XXL, but it also comes in regular, tall and petite styles too.

This tweed style looks much more expensive than it is. The double-breasted topper has two front pockets, a structured lapel and it ranges in size from XS to 3XL. Shoppers say the fit is great, that the jacket has a nice weight to it and that the silky lining feels luxurious on. "I love this blazer. It's high quality and has a satin lining. It definitely looks more expensive than what it costs. The fit was perfect for me. ... I'm thinking about buying another color," raves one.
