At Coldwater Creek, for example, I size down for most things--particularly blazers and jackets. For any form-fitting or slim-fitting top, however, I size down to accommodate my bust. It may be that their sizing is different than other stores. I'm not sure anymore. My Express Editor pants are size 4S, and sometimes I can wear regular-sized tops and dresses; it all depends on the overall length. Anything long-sleeved requires a petite size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-does-this-blazer-look#post-1027818 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 19:35:27 +0000 Kristin L 1027818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's what the SA told me, Suz. She said that I should try sizing up if I was going to wear petites. I'm definelty try dresses, but I'm worried they may be a bit too short because I'm 5'6.&nbsp;</p> <p>High five Mo! I also bought a regular small cardigan, so I guess it will be one of those things where I'll try both on and see which works.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-does-this-blazer-look#post-1027814 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 19:28:01 +0000 Mo 1027814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I often find petite and juniors jackets fit better. &nbsp;I may be over 5' 4" but with my short waist and need for higher armholes, I end up with fit issues. &nbsp;Good to find solutions to our issues. &nbsp;High five! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-does-this-blazer-look#post-1027811 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 19:23:59 +0000 Suz 1027811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you are short waisted and don't have super long arms, you might indeed find that petites are a good fit! I love the colour of this one on you. It's tough to judge the fit from these photos but it sounds as if you are happy with it, so that is good.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sometimes I size up in petites for the best fit. Or size down in regulars, if you know what I mean.&nbsp;</p> <p>If petite jackets fit you better, the dresses might, too. Except if length is an issue.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-does-this-blazer-look#post-1027807 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 19:18:59 +0000 Kristin L 1027807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Ruth!</p> <p>It's a touch big in the chest, DJ. I think that's more due to the thin t-shirt I'm wearing, though.&nbsp;</p> <p>I bought it. I think I also may have solved part of my jacket problem. This jacket, which amazingly fits in the waist and sleeve is a petite. It looks like I should consider looking the the petite section for toppers so I can get things that actually fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-does-this-blazer-look#post-1027744 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 18:13:16 +0000 DeclawedJaguar 1027744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The length looks okay, but is it too big in the chest? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-does-this-blazer-look#post-1027739 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 18:04:33 +0000 Anonymous 1027739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>From what I can tell, it looks like it fits. I like the length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-does-this-blazer-look#post-1027735 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 17:59:35 +0000 Kristin L 1027735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found this blazer on deep discount at Ann Taylor Outlet. Do the lengths work? It hits at my waist and the sleeves come down to my wrists. </p>
