Hi,

Well I am not doing a good job of SYC if I keep actually shopping in stores instead. I've been eyeballing striped blazers since they were first mentioned last year, but was concerend that they would date quickly. Hearing they can be a classic piece in today's blog post pushed me over the edge.

I checked out both the ATL blazer and BR blazer mentioned in the post. And the BR blazer came home with me. It has a nice weight to it, long sleeves, and fit my broad shoulders. Plus it was really comfortable, this piece it felt like a knit to me. I took a size 4. I'm usually a S in BR clothing.

The ATL blazer was ok, however I did not care for the lower contrast with the white stripe (which is taupe or cream, not bright white) or the 3/4 length sleeves. Also I personally did not find this blazer as comfy as the BR one. I would have taken a size 4 in this if I purchased it. I'm usually a S in ATL clothing.
