Is this blazer warm enough for winter offices?

It is a mid-weight wool blend, so it works over a shirt in heated offices and indoors. Outdoors in cold weather you would want a coat over it.

Does the stretch make it fit differently?

The elastane lets the fabric give slightly across the shoulders and chest. Most people can take their usual size rather than sizing up.

Brush it after wear and air it between outings. Spot-clean or use a specialist dry cleaner; do not bleach, and avoid frequent washing.

It is more formal than a single-breasted jacket, so keep the rest simple: a plain top, straight trousers or jeans. Avoid bulky layers underneath.

It is softer and less shaped at the shoulder, closer to a cardigan-jacket. A structured blazer holds its line better but feels stiffer.
