I have a handful of suits and only one blazer. I was thinking about buying a second blazer but I have yet to find something that strikes my interest and so I've deferred that purchase til I find something down the road. However, that got me thinking, can I occasionally wear a suit jacket as a blazer? I understand that normally this is a no-go as it will look like half of a missing suit, but in this case I think it might make more sense. Please see the attached photos. The dark green jacket is a blazer. The oatmeal outfit is a suit and I do have the matching pants, but this jacket also looks great on its own. The blazer and suit jacket both have similar detailing (blazer is slightly less structured) but both have a prince of wales pattern and the oatmeal jacket isn't obviously part of a suit when worn by itself. What do you think?
