Schoolboy Staple, Her Essential
I often contend that the only thing more distinguished in a blazer than a pocket-square...is a woman. And the ladies have been raiding the boy’s department for this prep school staple for years. But this season, the usual suspects (a la Rugby and Gant, to name a few) have sewn up the perfect schoolboy favorite, keeping traditional details like a notched lapel and buttoned cuffs. Rugby’s striped satin under-collar introduces a girlish touch that is frankly, brilliant. Dress it up with a fitted oxford and a bow-tie or down with a slim tank and jeans. Wear with confidence.

You can not go wrong with a good blazer this fall. Work one in to your pre-winter wardrobe. You’ll be glad you did.
