A blazer is essential for a smart casual dress code for any age. But you don’t have to use it for professional-looking outfits. You need to use it as a casual piece (I know, it’s not casual but still).

So, this outfit has three pieces of dressy style. Others, like blazer and boots, are to give a more informal look to the outfit.

Pieces with ruffles, ruches, and other details like them are amazing for mid-age women. Why? Because it’s time when most of our weight goes to the tummy area. So, these details help you to hide those parts and so, they make you look slimmer.

Not only that but also it makes you look so stylish. I think it’s even making you look two times younger. So, why should you miss that? You should definitely use it in your smart casual looks.
