I've Handpicked 21 High-Street Blazers Under £200 With Serious Saville Row Energy
If we had to call out one jacket style we're seeing more and more of in these in-between, transitional months, it would have to be the blazer. Dramatic oversized styles, bold pops of colour, classic black and leather finishes—it's incredible how varied one item of clothing can be appear when interpreted by different people with different style personalities, but it's also indicative of just how versatile this timeless jacket is, and thankfully, it's also something that looks great at every price point.
The high street has certainly upped its game in the tailoring stakes over the last few years, with brands such as Arket and COS delivering premium pieces at purse-friendly prices. (And I personally own one black blazer from Arket that I've been wearing on rotation for years and it still looks as good as the day I bought it.) But I'm also a strong advocate and long-time blazer devotee as it makes the perfect foundation on which to build our own style. Throw on a camel blazer with red lipstick and feel very Parisian, or opt for heritage check and see your wardrobe basics look 10 times more interesting. But if you need a bit of inspiration for the coming season, scroll down to see and shop our high-street blazer edit. It's one purchase you definitely won't regret.
1. Black Blazers
Style Notes: Call them versatile, timeless, classic, or a wardrobe staple, just don't call them boring. Black blazers lead the charge when it comes to chic jackets that never age, and whether you wear them with jeans, mini skirts or long dresses, they are the anti-trend hero that deserves a spot in your wardrobe for their year-round appeal.

2. Oversized Blazers
Style Notes: Think of one trend that defined the 2020s and its likely that the oversized blazer makes the cut. Thanks to brands like the Frankie Shop and Raey, boxy blazers have replaced fitted jackets, and we've turned up the volume of our wide-leg trousers to follow suit (pun very much intended).

3. Pop of Colour Blazers
Style Notes: Spring is the perfect time to introduce some colour back into our wardrobes after a winter spent in neutrals, and the easy way to incorporate pops of pastel and bold brights is with an easy layer you can throw on and go. Already a devoted colour connoisseur? Co-ordinated suits in head-to-tonals are currently trending.

4. Double-Breasted Blazers
Style Notes: It doesn't get more "borrowed from the boys" than a boxy blazer with a double breast, and as Anouk proves, you don't need to spend an hour getting ready to look like you have. Jeans, a jumper and a pair of loafers will do when a dressy jacket elevates the entire outfit.
Shop the Style:
5. Leather Blazers
Style Notes: Denim jackets may have fallen out of favour, but nothing ups the cool factor quite like a leather blazer. Think of it as the grown up older sister to the biker jacket—sleek, sophisticated, and with plenty of edge.
Shop the Style:
Abercrombie are experts in making faux leather look real.
6. Statement Blazers
Style Notes: Florals, checks, exaggerated silhouettes, when you want to make your blazer the star of the outfit, choose a style that stands out from the crowd. And, should you be lucky enough to find a blazer long enough to pass a dress, you've got an entire outfit sorted in one.
Shop the Style:
7. Beige Blazers
Style Notes: A beige blazer is the warm weather alternative to black and it's well worth having one in the back of your wardrobe for the days you don't know what to wear. Fresh, sharp and universally flattering, these are just as good with blue jeans as they are with leggings.

You're going to be happy to have a linen blazer come summer.
