A brown blazer is the fall jacket that works everywhere. It's softer and warmer than black, smarter than a cardigan, and the chocolate or camel color looks rich over almost anything, from jeans and a tee to a slip skirt.
Below are eight brown blazer outfits, plus the colors and shoes that work best. For more brown layering ideas, see our brown suede jacket outfit and brown jeans outfits.
