Turquoise Blazers

When it comes to mens blazers most of us restrict ourselves to navy, gray and black. But there are a lot more colors that you can try out. Most of us tend to think that the lighter colored and brighter colored blazers are hard to style and harder still to pull off. In this article we discuss the turquoise blazers and how best to pull them off.

For people who are new to the term turquoise it is blue green shade that gets its name from a rare gemstone of the same color. The color is rich and exquisite to look at and now making the trends in menswear and womenswear. If you are thinking of trying out a new shade then it we recommend you to give turquoise a try. Since it is a light shade it is best to reserve the blazers for casual use. You can also wear the turquoise for events where you are required to be dressed up. The unique look of the blazers will turn the attention towards you and make you stand out from the crowd of people wearing the usual colors.

The fabric from which the turquoise are made from plays an important part in the look of the blazer. Wool is the material that is most preferred in menswear because of its properties. But since turquoise suits are considered to be a casual garment and because of the bright color it is also recommended to wear the garment in summer and spring, the wool blazers might be a little uncomfortable. In that case go with lightweight garments like linen turquoise and cotton turquoise. The rich shade of the turquoise will also look great when it comes to luxurious ones like silk turquoise blazers. Since these are natural fabrics it might get a little expensive. For a cheaper buy you can choose to go with synthetic ones like polyester blazers and rayon turquoise blazers.

As for styling the turquoise it is best to keep in mind that it is a bold color and thus it inadvertently is going to attract a lot of attention. Thus you need to confidently pull off the style and for this you need to pair the blazer with proper combining garments. As mentioned before it is a bold color and thus might look too flashy for the dull seasons like winter and fall. Make sure you style the blazers for summer events like beach parties and such.

Here are some styling ideas for turquoise that we think might help you in the process. If you are attending a wedding and you would like to be in a formal outfit for men then you can pair a shawl lapel turquoise blazer with a white dress shirt and dark green dress pants. You can forgo the tie option and leave the top two buttons of the shirt open. For a perfect finish for the outfit you can add a pair of dark green velvet tassel loafers.

If you are the groomsmen to a summer wedding then you can experiment the look with light colored combining garments. For example you can pair a single breasted turquoise blazer with a mens white dress shirt, black knit tie and white dress pants. The contrast of the bright color like turquoise with the neutral one like white dress shirt and white dress pants will make the outfit even more appealing. To ground the look you can add a pair of dark brown suede loafers.

On the contrary if you are the groom in the wedding then you can go with a bold look since you will have to be the main attention of the event. A 3 piece turquoise blazer look is a good choice but if you aren't comfortable with the vested look then it is better to stick with the 2 piece turquoise blazer look. If you want a distinct look that will make people notice you then it is a better choice to go with richly patterned ones like floral turquoise blazers or Paisley turquoise blazers. These floral designs will conform well with the bright summer vibe and the celebratory atmosphere of the event.

For a smart casual look you can pair the notch lapel turquoise blazer with a white dress shirt and dark blue jeans. Complete the look with a pair of orange leather loafers. If you want a distinctive look then you can experiment a little with the colors of the combining garments other than the usual white and black. For example a single button turquoise blazer paired with a white dress shirt and mustard chinos gives out a classy and sophisticated look for the person. As for the footwear keep it simple with black boat shoes so that the outfit becomes the main piece.

If you want a casual laid back look then you can pair the single button turquoise blazer with a navy casual shirt and tan chinos. Pairing the bright turquoise blazer with dark combining garments will help create a balanced look for the outfit. For example a double breasted turquoise blazer paired with a navy dress shirt and dark blue jeans gives you a sophisticated look even if it is a casual style. You can complete the look with a pair of dark brown leather loafers. Burgundy also looks good with turquoise. A peak lapel turquoise blazer paired with a white dress shirt, burgundy tie and black dress pants is a good look that you can even wear to semi formal events. You can complete the look with a pair of burgundy leather tassel loafers.

Which ever the style you go with when it comes to blazers make sure that the fit of the garment is right since lighter colored garments tend to attract much attention. Slim fit turquoise and classic fit blazers are the ones that are most recommended and you can select the one that best suits your need.
