Smart casual is in! Shoppers are obsessed with Kmart’s latest fashion buy
- Replies 9
If you’re a fan of classy outfits, you’re going to love this one! Fashionistas are flocking to Kmart stores to get their hands on this latest clothing set – a new blue power suit (for an affordable price of $35).
It comes with $22 matching pants which only sets shoppers back $57 total if it’s bought with the blazer. But if you’d rather have a slightly more casual look, you can always switch the pants with matching $15 shorts!
Kmart fans are floored by the set as it’s relatively cheap compared to bigger brands that sell similar outfits for hundreds of dollars.
The new release took the internet by storm after a stylist from Perth, Breeahn Carter, featured the buy in a now-viral Instagram video. The video was also shared on Kmart’s official account.
'When I say run, don’t walk – especially for this linen blend blazer and pants. I mean it!' she wrote online.

'These might be the best Kmart clothes that I've ever bought,' Breeahn can be heard saying in the video.
'I have some of Kmart’s linen blend blazers from a few years ago and they're still going strong.'
As the set is made with light linen material, it's a great outfit choice all throughout the year. It can also be paired with a wide variety of accessories and clothing.
Breeahn said that the power suit is a good way to add a pop of colour to your wardrobe.
'It's blue, not too offensive like a bright pink or orange… Who's going to grab this one? I cannot wait to wear it!'

Stylist and mum-of-two Lisa Galanopolous also rocked the budget-friendly blazer. She paired it with white drawstring pants, a pink floral top, and heels.
'I'm giving you all the nautical “Greek Island” vibe today, featuring the linen blazer in a calm shade of sea blue for $35 at Kmart.’ she captioned the video.
The product is part of the retail giant’s new spring and summer collections. Shoppers are snapping them off the shelves fast – it’s already out of stock in sizes 6 and 18 online.
Both of the videos have since been viewed over 250,000 times when combined.
'Okay, I need this in every colour.' one person commented, while another added: 'This is so cute.'

‘I already have the blazer! I didn’t know it had matching pants. I’ll be getting those ASAP!’ declared a third.
‘I have been searching for an affordable bright blue blazer for years! I can’t wait to get my hands on them.’ gushed a fourth.
‘Oh, wow! These will fly off the shelves. The set looks amazing on you!’ praised one more.

But one shopper pointed out the downside that comes with clothes made out of linen, saying: ‘I just can't buy anything made with linen or linen blend as it involves ironing.’
Another criticised: ‘Hmm… I personally don’t think it’s flattering. The outfit reminds me of theatre scrubs.’
As of now, the full set is only available in one colour but customers are pleading for it to be available in pink.
What are your thoughts on Kmart’s latest smart linen range? Will you be dropping by your local store to see if it suits you (no pun intended) or is the set overrated? Let us know in the comments!
