I think they give a really sophisticated look to an outfit with some added edge! Zara had a great sale on boyfriend blazers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-blazers-for-shorties#post-79660 Fri, 17 Jul 2009 20:04:09 +0000 medusa 79660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think either is too long. I also agree that the Hinge blazer is nicer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-blazers-for-shorties#post-79658 Fri, 17 Jul 2009 20:01:27 +0000 Ana 79658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Having tried on the Hinge blazer and the Express blazer, I think I like the Hinge one better. Patience and I agreed in the store that the Hinge blazer just draped better. The Express one is very stiff, almost like poplin. </p> <p>Angie, I was interested to see what that color looks like, and it was the closest jacket to the cashwrap (I tried it on as we were leaving). I wasn't planning on buying it though. I love the Hinge blazer on Patience. I think I want an oversized blazer that's not so much like a suiting jacket. Does that make sense? I would probably look for another color and material, like charcoal grey or brown tweedy fabric, something like that.</p> <p>Thanks for the compliment, Inge! Those are the shoes Patience gave me during our closet swap. I've been wearing them all the time since it's gotten hot. They're perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-blazers-for-shorties#post-79655 Fri, 17 Jul 2009 19:55:33 +0000 Angie 79655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>With heels it's fine! It's the look. I want one with shoulder pads :0)</p> <p>Ana, were you thinking of that colour? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-blazers-for-shorties#post-79647 Fri, 17 Jul 2009 19:48:46 +0000 Laura 79647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that the Hinge jacket has a little more je-ne-sais-quoi to it. The Express jacket's lapels are too narrow, or something? Hmmmm. I completely think that both of you can make this work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-blazers-for-shorties#post-79642 Fri, 17 Jul 2009 19:39:27 +0000 Inge 79642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Shiny, Patience, I don't think the jacket is too long. I think you could work this with skinny jeans and heels!-)</p> <p>For some reason I'm not so fond of the one Ana is wearing. It might be the colour? Or the fact that it seems a bit too big (I know boyfriend blazers are supposed to have a relaxed fit), but something just isn't working for me.<br /> (love your peep-toe shoes Ana!-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-blazers-for-shorties#post-79641 Fri, 17 Jul 2009 19:39:24 +0000 Dani 79641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the blazers look great! I have a slight preference for the NAS one (the Express one looks a little less structured to me (but I'm not a professional so take my opinion with a grain of salt). Go for it!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-blazers-for-shorties#post-79635 Fri, 17 Jul 2009 19:31:23 +0000 shiny 79635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, I don't think either is too long - that's the look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-blazers-for-shorties#post-79630 Fri, 17 Jul 2009 19:23:33 +0000 Patience 79630@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We know we're short but Ana and I are wondering if there's any way we can make the boyfriend blazer work for us.</p> <p>Hinge blazer at NAS:<br /> <a href="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk269/platoscat/NAS09/IMG_1162.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i282.photobucket.com/al.....G_1162.jpg</a></p> <p>Express jacket:<br /> <a href="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk269/platoscat/NAS09/IMG_1163.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i282.photobucket.com/al.....G_1163.jpg</a><br /> belted:<br /> <a href="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk269/platoscat/NAS09/IMG_1164.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i282.photobucket.com/al.....G_1164.jpg</a></p> <p>Thoughts? Ana thought she would be more likely to wear it belted. I really like the Hinge jacket but am concerned that it's just too long. </p>
