I like their essential blazers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-black-blazer-recommendations#post-875647 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 15:45:54 +0000 Angie 875647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great recommendations! </p> <p>Kristen, you have many options. Try Express too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-black-blazer-recommendations#post-875576 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:42:47 +0000 Isis 875576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you are a small this Gibson one is lovely and on sale:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/gibson-equestrian-blazer/3341186?origin=category&#038;contextualcategoryid=0&#038;fashionColor=&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/gi.....sultback=0</a></p> <p>I think it was in Angie's store. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-black-blazer-recommendations#post-875520 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 13:20:44 +0000 Kristen 875520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the Gap one because the material is the same as their premium pants, so it easily doubles as a suit when needed. That said, I adore most Halogen suits -- the details on their jackets are simple but stand out. You can just buy the jacket if that is all you need!</p> <p>I have built up a nice blazer collection the last few years -- my only recommendation for building one is to leave no retail stone unturned. I have found jackets from all kinds of stores. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-black-blazer-recommendations#post-875473 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:08:35 +0000 Lauren 875473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sometimes you can find a great J.Crew blazer on sale. I grabbed this cotton "suiting" one <a href="http://bit.ly/13zkKQZ" rel="nofollow">http://bit.ly/13zkKQZ</a> on sale at the time for like $80. Still pricey but it fits like a dream and is amazing quality. It comes in camel and black as well. You could also try J.Crew Factory! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-black-blazer-recommendations#post-875467 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 11:58:16 +0000 Karie 875467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the Gap blazer. Sometimes they are cheaper in the store than on-line, so you might want to check that out if you live near a Gap store, Kristin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-black-blazer-recommendations#post-875262 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 03:36:26 +0000 sarah 875262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the GAP one that Thistle linked to, and I'm very happy with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-black-blazer-recommendations#post-875234 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 02:53:52 +0000 Thistle 875234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really struggle with blazers. Here is a nice one from GAP. <a href="http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=51452&#038;vid=1&#038;pid=908375002" rel="nofollow">http://www.gap.com/browse/prod.....=908375002</a></p> <p>Currently only 20% off so $80. Give them time, they will run 30-35% off again. They always do, and that will put it in your range. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-black-blazer-recommendations#post-875231 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 02:52:28 +0000 bj1111 875231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i think the dress pants and the jeans should have the same shape/proportions for one jacket to work with both.</p> <p>i posted some k/r jackets and angie chimed in re jacket length and skinnies vs slouchies. so i think it would work similarly with dress pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-black-blazer-recommendations#post-875230 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 02:51:14 +0000 Karie 875230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a red Old Navy blazer that I love, I think it comes in black too. It's a BF fit but the price point was only about $20 (on sale) so it might not be the quality you're looking for. I'm interested in seeing what everyone else has to say, I've been looking for a black, tailored blazer myself but haven't been able to find one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-black-blazer-recommendations#post-875222 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 02:49:07 +0000 kellygirl 875222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would check H&amp;M. I' ve had good luck with blazers there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-black-blazer-recommendations#post-875217 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 02:46:52 +0000 Kristin L 875217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi everyone. I've been looking around for a black blazer and I was wondering if anyone had suggestions or recommendations of ones they liked. I'd like to stay around $75. My goal is to have something that I can wear with jeans as well as dress pants. What do y'all think?</p> <p>Edit: I liked the Gap ones from a bit ago, but I waited too late to grab one. </p>
