The New Power Pairing the Fashion Crowd Are Living in This Month

The blazer has enjoyed its prolific It status for the last few seasons, and it seems the classic staple is set to continue to dominate our wardrobes into 2020, too. This winter, however, there's another versatile investment you can make; simple knitwear.

Often regarded as "boring", pared-back knitwear has is having its day in the sun once again, as those in the know—influencers and editors alike—are using block-colour and tonal jumpers and cardigans to add a timeless, toasty layer to their cold-weather ensembles. And the most-popular item it's being worn under? The aforementioned blazer.

As surprising as it may seem, this combination is relatively new, and so many of our fashion friends have been wearing knitwear and blazers together of late. As such, we thought it was time to give it the attention it deserves; to show you our favourite blazer-and-jumper/cardigan outfits, then lay out the chicest combinations to shop for yourself—that's exactly what you'll find if you keep scrolling.
