Blue By You: Cool & Classic Navy Blazers

Hello, I am Stephanie, the editor of stephmodo, where practical meets pretty!

When it comes to wardrobe essentials, a smart navy blazer is at the top of the list.  A versatile transition piece in Spring and Fall, this classic blazer is worth a little research and precious real estate in your closet.  Mark my words, it'll fast become one of your favorite items and will perhaps become your new "uniform?" Since the fit of a blazer is so important (you definitely want to go for a perfect, tailored fit here), and we all have different body types, I thought it would be helpful to gather a collection of the most stylish blazers under $250.

Madewell - Simple, subtle menswear details make this one of our absolute favorites. We hope it feels as quality in person as it appears online. Lots of size choices too, which we like.

Juicy Couture - We love the interior coin pocket (for lipstick of course!) and smart-looking pockets on the front as well. A little on the spendy side, but if it fits well, it'll be a piece you'll bring out year after year. Also comes in petites!

ASOS - If you're petite, it's tough to pull off a tuxedo blazer; but this one is made for small frames so now those under 5'4 can enjoy a stylish look without feeling drowned. Anyone else having 80's flashbacks here? Oh, it's also on special right now...

Topshop - Zippers, lots of buttons, and an off-the-runway military look make this affordable blazer quite appealing. Lots of great reviews too!

Mango - If you are a big fan of military style details, and are on a budget, you cannot go wrong with this snappy number. While not as classic as some of the other choices, the price point make it a sweet find for the trendier gal.

J.Crew - At first glance it looks like a blazer you borrowed from your son (great idea, right?!), but upon closer look all the feminine details take center stage. Quality brass buttons, hidden pockets inside for lipstick and a luxe wool blend with a hint of stretch--which is something all females appreciate!

Loft - The only navy jacket in this roundup with modern, asymmetrical styling. Also appreciate the classic, military styling - can't get enough of this always-in-style-no-matter-what look. Loft has offered several promotions recently; perhaps wait for the next one and then pick up this sweet blazer!

Vintage Balmain - This round up wouldn't be complete without the addition of a vintage, designer blazer--this one from French fashion house Balmain. If you can believe it, this tailored jacket still has the tags attached. Perfect with a svelte pencil skirt or a wide leg trouser and heels.
