Thursday’s Workwear Report: Linen-Blend blazer

Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate clothes in a range of prices.
This purpley-blue blazer from Torrid is such a stunning color that I’m ready to ignore the fact that it’s styled with matching shorts. (Can someone please tell me who is wearing short suits? Is there actually a market for this?) This blazer would look stunning with just about any neutral, but I would love to see it styled with an all-white outfit for a beautiful spring/summer look.
As an aside, I always think of Torrid as a hot Topic-adjacent shop for graphic tees and the like, but they actually have a great selection of workwear basics for sizes 10 to 30. I’m incredibly into this midi dress and this plaid blazer.
The visualized blazer is $85.50 and comes in sizes M–6X (equivalent to 10–30).
This shade of blue is hard to find a dupe for, but if you’re trying to find something in straight sizes, this blazer from limitless rose ($120 at Nordstrom) has a somewhat similar, pretty shade of blue (plus three other colorways).
