Tennis Sweater Under A Blazer



Another classic approach to mixing up the blazer is by adding a tennis or cricket sweater underneath. However, this look can be tricky because most tennis sweaters carry a lot of girth. Personally, I think you can create the best look and solve the problem by just leaving the jacket unbuttoned.

Or get a sweater vest with the same detailing. Nice clean look.

You're being too modest, Richard. That's not an opinion, that's a rule.

The other rule is that with such a sweater one wears a blazer that is one size up, especialy purchased fot this purpose.

That has to be the least WASPY playlist I've ever seen. Proof: the Black Eyed Peas as the first song. Where's "Rock Lobster," or Steve Miller Band?

I agree the best solution is the tennis/squash sweater vest.

I find the best are from Grass Court Collection in Hanover NH.
