Crash Proof: Eight Perfectly Sensible “Investment Pieces”
Alasdair Dickson Blazer
$685
The beauty of a good blazer is that it can transform any outfit into something that winds up feeling like so much more than the sum of its parts. In other words, a blazer really pulls your whole look together. And no blazer that we’ve found does this better than the Dickson blazer, which has a looser fit than a classic women’s blazer (yet somehow that makes it feel more feminine) and slightly longer sleeves than typical, so that the edges graze the palms. But what really makes this blazer stand apart is its luxurious, compulsively touchable blend of wool and cashmere—you don’t just want to wear it, you want to wrap yourself in it.
