After our slightly '80s-inspired (and very loud luxury) cover spread starring none other than 2023's It girl Sofia Richie Grainge, I can't say I was surprised to find a slideshow featuring one of the era's biggest and most relevant-right-now trends pop up on her Instagram feed. That's not to say I wasn't happy to see it there, especially since I've been rallying behind the vintage outerwear's return to fame for quite some time now. If you haven't yet guessed, I'm referring to the tapered-in, gold-buttoned, big-shouldered blazers and jackets from the oft-slept-on decade in fashion that—thanks to brands like Saint Laurent, Alaïa, Schiaparelli, and more—are making a massive comeback for fall. 

Richie Grainge, in particular, chose a highlighter-yellow take on the style, with hers featuring a military-style collar and a long-line silhouette. Though the photos, which she captioned with just a lemon emoji, don't show her entire 'fit, she appears to be wearing black jeans and carrying a Hermès Swift Kelly bag, a style that's currently on sale for over $15,000 (casual). 

While styles similar to Richie Grainge's are all over the secondhand market—I have a habit of checking The RealReal for them every morning before I get up—brands like Zara, H&M, and more are, too, getting in on the '80s-blazer trend, making it both easy and affordable to mimic the newlywed's look. Scroll down to shop some of my personal favorites that are available RN.
