If you haven't noticed, plaid blazers are no longer only reserved for corporate interviews. The polished jackets are getting so much more play lately—like it's impossible to scroll through Instagram without seeing a blogger wearing a checkered blazer.

Celebrities like Hailey Baldwin and Kourtney Kardashian have both rocked the beloved jackets recently. Each lady put her own twist on the classic number. But both outfits prove that the professional piece can actually be turned into the star of a sexy night-time look.
