Does anyone think it looks weird that the sleeves end exactly where the sides of the jacket end when I'm standing with my arms down? You can see this a little better on the model, I think: <a href="http://www.loft.com/loft/product/LOFT-Petite/LOFT-petite-stripe-suits/Petite-Leigh-Stripe-Suit-Jacket/277076?colorExplode=false&#038;skuId=11035275&#038;catid=catl000040&#038;productPageType=fullPriceProducts&#038;defaultColor=6582" rel="nofollow">http://www.loft.com/loft/produ.....Color=6582</a></p> <p>(You can also see a close-up of the fabric if you follow that link.)</p> <p>I'm leaning toward "keep". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gray-pinstriped-34-sleeve-blazer-from-loft#post-608215 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 14:28:14 +0000 cjh 608215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The fit is great on you. If you like the crop cut and 3/4 sleeves, I say try it on with all your tops and find a new one or two to match. If you can wear it with several, different pants and skirts and things, you have a real winner.</p> <p>I LOVE the color and fabric, by the way. You have good taste. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gray-pinstriped-34-sleeve-blazer-from-loft#post-607815 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 01:02:27 +0000 shoppingisfun 607815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Christieanne, it is a petite size. I do have some longer tops I could wear underneath it. I also have a pussy bow blouse that might look good with it, but it has wonky tails (not the greatest quality) so I would have to tuck it in. Not sure how that would look... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gray-pinstriped-34-sleeve-blazer-from-loft#post-607469 Sun, 29 Apr 2012 19:23:34 +0000 Kirti 607469@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep if it feels comfortable it looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gray-pinstriped-34-sleeve-blazer-from-loft#post-607403 Sun, 29 Apr 2012 18:22:32 +0000 christieanne 607403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like it fits as a cropped jacket should and arms don't look gaping big at all. Is this a Petite or regular size? Shorter jacket is still a very current style. </p> <p>A few colorful tops (H&amp;M?) like a pussy bow blouse great under the jacket and I agree you can wear this year round. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gray-pinstriped-34-sleeve-blazer-from-loft#post-607392 Sun, 29 Apr 2012 18:11:37 +0000 shoppingisfun 607392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the replies! I agree about wearing it with a different top (it's not really styled i this pic...I was wearing a plain-jane outfit to an afternoon bbq, and just stuck the jacket on to take the pic). </p> <p>Honestly I'm not sure how I feel about this jacket. I love the gray with pinstripes. I look bad in most grays, but this one is dark enough that I think I can pull it off...I love gray!). The thing that's throwing me off are the sleeves. I know that usually the shoulder seam of a jacket should normally sit at the edge of your shoulder; the sleeve seams on these fit slightly narrower than that, but I think they're supposed to because they have a semi-puffed/rouched thing going on...they don't feel too tight at all). </p> <p>I agree that this jacket would look much better with a colorful top, but I am very lacking in cute, summery tops right now, so at the moment I don't really have anything to wear it with. I'm actually about to go shopping right now to see if i can find some tops!</p> <p>Another thing I like about this jacket is that I think it can be worn in fall as well as spring; also, cropped jackets look best on me (since I'm under 5'1"), but are kind of hard to find right now, since everyone else seems to prefer the "boyfriend jacket" look. But does that mean that this one is out of style? My only other gray jacket leaves me unable to lift my arms, and my only other striped jacket is way too big, so this would fill a void in my wardrobe, which is something to think about as well. Hmm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gray-pinstriped-34-sleeve-blazer-from-loft#post-607346 Sun, 29 Apr 2012 17:39:40 +0000 Kristin L 607346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like it fits. How do you feel in it? If you feel uncomfortable or not fabulous in it, I'd consider returning it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gray-pinstriped-34-sleeve-blazer-from-loft#post-607342 Sun, 29 Apr 2012 17:37:22 +0000 Jilly 607342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the fit is great, but I think you need some color in the outfit </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gray-pinstriped-34-sleeve-blazer-from-loft#post-607338 Sun, 29 Apr 2012 17:29:59 +0000 Anonymous 607338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up! I have a similar AT blazer from the thrift store and it is a workhorse. You might try a longer top under it, one that ends a couple of inches above the crotch, when wearing it with pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gray-pinstriped-34-sleeve-blazer-from-loft#post-607330 Sun, 29 Apr 2012 17:22:20 +0000 sarah 607330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gray-pinstriped-34-sleeve-blazer-from-loft#post-607306 Sun, 29 Apr 2012 16:45:32 +0000 jayne 607306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like it fits where it counts, the shoulders and bust. Nice jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-gray-pinstriped-34-sleeve-blazer-from-loft#post-607278 Sun, 29 Apr 2012 16:05:00 +0000 shoppingisfun 607278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want to hear you ladies' thoughts before I say which way I'm leaning! So tell me...keep or return? (Please ignore my bare face and wet hair. I would never actually leave the house like that!) </p>
