The Expert
Los Angeles-based fashion stylistKim Johnsonhas an educational background in both art history and fashion design.
For casual cotton dresses, she says that a matted polyester jacket can play well against a soft fabric.
In terms of color palette, Johnson says that the colors should harmonize or contrast.
(The monochromatic look always looks chic.)
The single-breasted style features two front pockets and a single-button closure.
Will purchase in every color!
Add some gold jewelry to accentuate the buttons and youll look instantly coordinated.
I love the button detail and fabric.
It has stretch, and feels soft and thick.
It’s not a flimsy thin fabric like some other blazers I’ve purchased.
I highly recommend this one!
you’ve got the option to dress it up, or wear it with jeans!

It looks great with midi dresses and skirts as well as jeans and t-shirts.
I love how versatile this jacket is.
The quality of this jacket is also awesome.
I think it looks like real leather and is heavy.
There is really nice attention to detail and I feel that this jacket will last a long time.

Let the asymmetrical hem and open front take center stage by pairing it with a streamlined bodycon dress.
Its hard to believe this expensive-looking piece will set you back less than $50.
Positive review:I absolutely LOVE this jacket!
Color is great and versatile too!
Positive review:Perfect for wearing with dresses in the summer.
I will get a lot of use out of it!
It features a boxy fit that hits at the hip, with button closure and two button-front chest pockets.
The denim can contrast with dressier fabrics, or complement more casual blends.
Youll wear it with all your dresses and everything else in your wardrobe, too.
When I saw this, I ordered it immediately because I know London Fog - it’s top quality.
(They are the staple of the trench coat, besides Burberry naturally.)
This is trench coat to invest in.
The open-front, single-breasted style and optional tie belt add minimal structure while remaining relaxed and elegant.
Contrast the slinky sheer fabric by pairing it with a bodycon midi or mini dress.
Positive review:OMG!
This was the perfect duster for date nights.
Get it!!!
Choose from five on-trend colors, like olive (pictured), Barbiecore pink, and classic black.
Positive review:This trench is gorgeous!
It’s very versatile.
The fabric is soft to the touch, and the pockets are at the perfect angle to me.
This is the first item I have from the Amazon Aware line, and I am impressed.
Positive review: I loved everything about the coat.
It looked great with jeans and top +boots or with a longer dress and boots.
I ordered a larger size in the event I wanted to layer!
It is easy to put on and take off as that little bit of stretch really works!
Its fitted, so it will look lovely against both fitted and flared dresses of any length.
Positive review:I love these!
I’m going to buy them in more colors.
I have gotten so many compliments.
They are perfect to dress up any casual outfit but also nice enough to wear with a formal dress.

The pleated shoulders add a delicate touch, but the boxy, hip-length fit feels modern.
This would look incredible paired with a floaty floral or silk dress to contrast the edgy zipper details.

Goes great with dresses or jeans.
Planning on getting more of them!
