If I could suggest one layering option to see you through the in-between weather we’re experiencing, it would be, without a doubt, the grey blazer. Light enough to layer under a coat should you need, yet full-coverage enough to provide the right amount of warmth on sunnier days, this spring-ready layer is one of the most reached for in my wardrobe.
In a relaxed grey shade, I find this blazer style to be the most versatile of the lot. Styling well with smart blouses and tailored trousers, but looking equally chic paired with an oversized hoodie or your favourite straight leg jeans, the grey blazer offers a more relaxed take on the sophisticated silhouette that makes day-to-day styling all the more easy.
Ever on the lookout for excellent outfits that champion my favourite clothing item, below I’m rounded up four easy-to-copy looks that will make styling the blazer a breeze. Read on to discover the grey blazer trend below.
HOW INFLUENCERS ARE STYLING GREY BLAZERS THIS SEASON
1. GREY BLAZER + WHITE TEE + JEANS
Style Notes: The grey blazer, white t-shirt and straight leg jeans outfit might be my favourite style combination ever. Equal parts laid-back and elevated, the inspired combination pairs sophisticated items with street-style favourites for a balanced ensemble that looks good every time.

2. GREY BLAZER + WAIST COAT + MAXI SKIRT
