One of the most versatile pieces in any well-dressed woman's wardrobe is, quite surprisingly, a menswear mainstay: an impeccably tailored blazer. While trends change with every refresh of your Instagram feed, you can always rely on a blazer to sharpen up any outfit. However, in the vast world of high street tailoring, many poorly constructed pieces do exactly the opposite. One brand that we can always trust to nail good-quality classics is Massimo Dutti and, predictably, we've found the best wool blend blazer for 20% off in its Black Friday Sale this year.
As with most Massimo Dutti pieces, the Wool Blend Pinstripe Blazer, £159.20 is a masterclass in elegant and refined dressing. So what exactly makes this blazer the perfect buy this winter? Well, to start with, it's cut for slightly oversized, relaxed fit which is universally flattering while the pinstripe pattern is as classic as it comes. The blazer is also crafted from a hefty wool blend which offers a structured finish as well as warmth for the winter months.

Incredibly chic and polished, you'll find this Massimo Dutti blazer is the perfect winter topper no matter the occasion. Of course, styling it with a button-down and trouser combo for work is a no-brainer, but you could also throw it over a classic white T-shirt or even a hoodie (just like Rihanna) to smarten up a casual OOTD. Elsewhere, the chic Londoner's favourite midi skirt and trainers outfit formula is made even chicer with this pinstriped blazer. Alternatively, throw it over a silk slip dress and high heeled boots for an evening event.
If you've been feeling somewhat fusty under chunky puffer jackets and oversized knits this winter, consider this Pinstriped Blazer for a sophisticated solution to your winter dressing woes. The wool-blend design is imbued with the modern yet timeless quality that we've come to expect from Zara's premium sister brand and given it's currently on sale, we see it selling out pretty fast.
