At one point in sartorial history, the black blazer was commonly associated with business, rather than pleasure. Viewed as a protective shield and unequivocally part of the power suit, ladies would don the mighty blazer as they headed into the office. With its solid and streamlined silhouette, this all-powerful jacket immediately invoked images of strength.<\/p>\n

While still associated with suiting, the black blazer has experienced a shift in recent years, from corporate essential to fashion must-have. In fact, celebrities have increasingly been sporting fitted black blazers for their appearances on the red carpet and as part of their street style looks.  If you\u2019re wondering how to update this blazer for the spring months, follow the shining examples set by these fashion-forward stars.<\/p>\n
