Keira Knightley styles the best chocolate brown blazer with a blush pink skirt, coffee tone jumper and white slingback heels

The last thing I want to do this Christmas is wear a piece of outerwear that hides or hinders my outfit—and that's where an oversized blazer comes in. An effortlessly chic wardrobe staple that adds a stylish edge to occasionwear, and that can be worn in the daytime too. And Keira Knightley may have just worn the best one we've seen all year.

Captured in New York last week, she wore an oversized blazer in chocolate brown that we would love to get our hands on! She layered it over a pink, flowy skirt, a darker brown jumper, and finished the look with white slingback heels and a Chanel handbag. An oversized blazer is the ultimate winter capsule wardrobe piece—it’s versatile, timeless, and works for almost any occasion, from finishing off your Christmas party outfit to wearing on snowy winter walks.

For someone like me, who’s constantly searching for outerwear that doesn’t take away from the outfit beneath, an oversized blazer is perfect, especially during party season. It's also spacious enough to layer over the best wool jumper, and smart enough to complement dresses and skirts, making it ideal for winter when practicality is key!

Another thing which really makes this outfit stand-out is the colour palette, brown, and nude pink is both elegant and unexpected. Brown or earthy tones pair so well with pastel pink or more unexpected colours ways and this outfit shows how to perfectly style contrasting colours.
