Can You Wear a Blazer for a First Date?

For a first date, a Blazer brings structure without reading too formal — layer it over a Turtleneck for a polished yet approachable look, or throw it over a Maxi Dress to balance ease with intention. Pair with Heeled Sandals to keep the combination refined but not overdone, or ground it with Cargo Pants if the setting skews casual.
