Be A Boss Bitch With These 10 Streetwear-Ready Blazers

As Bella Hadid proved on her way to the Heron Preston Fall/Winter 2018 show (see below), blazers can be streetwear AF, when done right. The key is to take the blazer out of the formal wear context: wearing it oversized as if it were a dress, using that deep V to flash a bit of cleavage, layering it up with a hoodie, or pairing it with some Matrix-esque shades and a statement sneaker. It's pretty much as sexy as day wear gets, as if you stole your Tinder date's jacket to cover up last night's scant just enough that you don't cause any car crashes on the way home. Safety first.
