This Under-$50 Piece Is the Most Expensive-Looking Thing to Own Right Now

There's a reason we wear our blazers more than 99% of our closet. I dare you to name a piece that's easier to throw on over jeans and a tee, a dress, or really any other outfit to achieve instant polish. Since we all need a solid blazer (or several) in our closets year-round, we're about to make it way easier for you to add a chic (and affordable) one to your arsenal for spring.

While your heavier wool blazers may have worked well in the winter, now's the time to swap them out for a lighter spring-ready version, and our Double Breasted Belted Blazer fits the bill, if we do say so ourselves. The linen fabric is pretty ideal for those hot and humid days that will be here before we know it, and as you'll see up ahead, it pairs well with nearly any outfit idea you could think of. I'm also a big fan of the removable belt—wear it cinched around your waist for some added definition or skip the belt and wear the blazer open over a cool top.

Coming in at just under $50, it's a piece that only looks expensive. To see how cool girls are already wearing it, shop the aforementioned blazer yourself and more affordable spring pieces to wear with it, just keep scrolling.

I made the blazer into a DIY suit by wearing it with similar-looking linen trousers.

It plays well with spring-ready gingham, too.
