What to wear with a tweed blazer
Tweed blazers are easy to dress up or down, depending on the occasion. For a more relaxed look, try a navy tweed blazer with chinos or jeans, a smart shirt, and loafers. Heading somewhere a bit smarter? A grey tweed blazer works well layered over a white shirt, tailored trousers, and a waistcoat. You can also add a knitted tie or pocket square if you want to sharpen things up a little more.
How should your tweed blazer fit?
The right fit should feel comfortable when you move, but still look clean and sharp. Your blazer should sit properly on the shoulders and button easily without pulling. The sleeves should show just a bit of your shirt cuff, and there should be enough room underneath for a jumper or waistcoat if you’re layering.

When is the best time to wear tweed?
Tweed is usually thought of as a colder-weather fabric — and it’s a great choice for autumn or winter — but it’s not just for chilly days. A beige tweed blazer works well in spring, too, especially for weddings or outdoor events. Whether you're dressing for the races, the office, or just want to change up your regular jacket, tweed is a solid choice all year round.
