I'm Recreating This Look

SoX — Thu, 30 Apr 2026 15:31:02 GMT

I've always admired @wilma Wilma's navy blazer on the Outfit of the Day thread ... and while scrolling on the Nordstrom website for sales, I came across this RL Cotton Blazer ...

I already have a stripe cotton blouse in my closet, and a pair of RL linen pants from last year ... so, my version will pretty much resemble this. I think I'm gonna love mine ...

Love it! Polished, classic, and comfortable. It's an outfit you can wear for many different activities and be confident that you look stylish and appropriate. And will be in style forever.

Enjoy!

@SoX

It's a lovely look, but I stopped wearing light pants many years ago. No matter how careful I was, they always seemed to be a stain magnet!

AGREE! @wilma has great classic style!

I love the outfit and bet you'll shine in it. Now I want a Ralph Lauren blazer!

I have been looking at the jacket. I think I am going to get it. I love a Ralph Lauren blazer! They are one of my favorites!

@Franklinbell ... I know, right? We are kindred spirits when it comes to RL ...

@Calibeach ... I think so, too ... some on here might call me too preppy at my age, but I love the Lauren style ... it never goes out of.

@nambee ... love your description ... just what I was aiming for! I'm going to enjoy wearing it this spring and early summer.

@SoX RL and "classics" are timeless, ageless. You have good taste!

@Tinkrbl44 ... I seem to have good luck when it comes to white and cream-colored pants and blazers ... now I know Karma will find me!

That is really nice @SoX.

I've always admired Wilma's style too.

For me I think I'd wear dark navy pants or a skirt or even white to go with the white in the shirt.

When I was working in my office that was one of my favorite outfits! Austin Reed double breasted navy blazer and ivory slacks! Great outfit!

Thank you, @We rescue cats ... I'm looking forward to wearing it ... maybe on Mother's Day.

It makes a great looking outfit, hope you enjoy it! And it is a bargain, I paid $200-300 per piece for mine and that was 20 years ago! LOL!!!

@wilma ... so, so sorry to hear of your health issues ... hoping your are on the mend. (I'm also back and forth with neurologist, MRI, physical therapist, and an upcoming visit with neurosurgeon, so I believe I have an idea of how you are feeling.)

Take care of yourself and feel better soon!
