Tux

This tuxedo style blazer is one of my favorites. The fit and cut are great. It elevates any outfit. But the fabric is a lint magnet! I’ve looked at similar jackets but either the cut isn’t as perfect or the fabric is too similar. And, honestly, I haven’t found another that can beat the $5 price of my current blazer.


Blazer, Odds ‘n Evens (thrifted). Blouse, Love on a Hanger. Dress, Lipstick. Tights, Stocking Diva. Boots, Rampage. Earrings, Native American store at the Three Rivers mall. Necklace, Express. Rings, gift, thrifted, vintage, and heirloom.



This jacket takes at least two lint roller sheets to make it presentable, but I guess it’s worth it.

Wow, you've had it for a while! I think your cost-per-wear is looking pretty good now!

I haven't found the perfect black tux jacket yet, but I do have the perfect cream one.

$5? Worth the price of the lint rollers.

I love that blazer! And that you've shown all the ways you've worn it. But now I feel I HAVE to get a tuxedo blazer. Doubt I can match your $5 price tag, but I'm gonna try.

Wonder if you can get an awesome seamstress to reconstruct one in a less lint-aholic fabric...
