Simple and timeless, make this sleek navy blazer your go-to wardrobe staple for summer events, says junior editor

In a season of all-day garden parties, outdoor sporting events and countless weddings, we are perpetually on the hunt for stylish solutions to smart summer dressing. And, while tailoring may be the last thing on our minds as the temperature rises, it’s hard to ignore the merits of a well-fitting blazer. Elegant, easy-to-wear and always chic, this perennial classic is the perfect finish for any midsummer ensemble, no matter what the dress code. Simply trade in trousers for a swish pair of silk jogging pants to take on-trend loungewear up a notch, or keep it simple after dark with a lightweight shirt and jeans. Alternatively, wear yours over a floral tea dress – pushing up the sleeves for an elegant finish.
