According to Trunk Club, women's blazers gained more mainstream popularity in the 1980s with the release of box office blockbusters like "Working Girl" with Melanie Griffith and "Baby Boom" with Diane Keaton. The New York professionals illustrating the modern woman in these films showed us how women could wear blazers in the workplace and make them look like they could play in the big leagues with the men. But blazers are not just for the workplace any more and can be worn any number of ways, as noted by Byrdie.

In today's world, you can find blazers in any style and color. While they may have gotten their name from blazing red all over a rowing team, they eventually became more subdued when worn as office wear, often found in shades of grey, black, and navy blue. As of today's writing, you can find a blazer in almost any color depending on your mood. They also come in a variety of cuts, as some are oversized while others are more fit. A wool material might work for fall or winter and silk or linen can keep you cooler, but stylish in spring or on a breezy summer night (via Trunk Club).
