I love this jacket for you. Given that it is such a unique print and not an overly exaggerated style, I suspect you'll be happy wearing it for a very long time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276304 Mon, 08 Aug 2022 12:56:05 +0000 RobinF 2276304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm late here but also prefer the medium. I like the relaxed vibe of it. I bet the boyfriend style will be around a while. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276286 Mon, 08 Aug 2022 11:09:35 +0000 Janet 2276286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for all the additional input! I’m glad I tried the small, but I think I my heart is going with the boyfriend vibe for this jacket. Wear it open, graphic tee, scrunch the sleeves, jeans and boots, and go! </p> <p>I looked at it in the context of my existing blazers. I have the Zadig &amp; Voltaire for when I want a more fitted silhouette with some rock’n’roll flash. This will provide me with a different silhouette. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276272 Mon, 08 Aug 2022 08:51:33 +0000 Jaime 2276272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely prefer the medium on you. That is the look the jacket is supposed to have imho. Boyfriend blazers have been going strong for a long time it seems, maybe they are a modern classic? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276269 Mon, 08 Aug 2022 06:42:41 +0000 Gaylene 2276269@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The medium looks interesting; the small looks conventional.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276262 Mon, 08 Aug 2022 03:06:59 +0000 Vildy 2276262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anne has a good observation.&nbsp; You have a wonderful - and memorable - collection of jackets and toppers and nobody thinks of you as wanting a classic blazer look.&nbsp; If I may overstep here - it wars with the rest of your taste.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276257 Mon, 08 Aug 2022 02:02:46 +0000 Bijou 2276257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both look great, I think it is all in which feels the best to wear. The medium does not make you look larger - something that often bothers me with oversized items - it looks intentional and is very flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276255 Mon, 08 Aug 2022 01:57:18 +0000 rachylou 2276255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m with Angie and Vildy, and prefer the medium. I agree that it becomes ‘just a blazer’ in small. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276248 Mon, 08 Aug 2022 01:03:05 +0000 Indigoprint 2276248@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the "boyfriend" look is a classic now, not a trend. We girls have been borrowing from the guys since at least the 50's if not before.... in WWII era when women stepped up to the plate for our soldiers. You wear it well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276247 Mon, 08 Aug 2022 00:50:13 +0000 catherine 2276247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the medium on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276236 Mon, 08 Aug 2022 00:17:54 +0000 Aquamarine 2276236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Medium! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276235 Mon, 08 Aug 2022 00:04:33 +0000 Anne 2276235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the medium size. I don't think it's too trendy in that it will date itself. Think of it this way: when you wear a blazer - now or in the future - do you WANT a classic blazer look? I think the touch of *something something* that the larger size gives is more your vibe. Elevated classic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276229 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 23:18:47 +0000 Irina 2276229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the medium size. Yes, it looks trendier but absolutely fab on you.&nbsp;<div>At this point in my life, I prefer to add a trendy piece once in a while to keep it fresh. Even without altering the shoulders, you can take the shoulder pads out to soften a line.&nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276224 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 22:53:12 +0000 Suz 2276224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the medium for the BF look and I really love this jacket for you!

Seems a lot of opinions were favoring the smaller size and more traditional fit. I need to pay attention to how it *feels* too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276202 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 21:10:40 +0000 Janet 2276202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the input so far. Lots to consider. After a little wear, I realized sleeves on the small are a little on the narrow side as well as a bit short. I haven’t tried this on over long sleeved tops or a sweater yet, but that may present a problem for the small size. </p> <p>Gryffin, thinking of it as just another silhouette — like boyfriend jeans — would be a good approach. I think the vibe of an oversized blazer can work for my desired aesthetic. I have a small handful of fitted blazers already. This is a different vibe, and I like the inherent casual-ness of the looser fit. I don’t wear leggings though, and there’s not a lot of length to this blazer, so this won’t function as any kind of dress for me — I love the idea but will leave that to others who have good-looking legs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276199 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 21:00:39 +0000 Angie 2276199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice to see the comparison, <b>Janet.</b> That was fast!&nbsp;</p> <p>I prefer the larger size. The M is the look, to my eye. So #3 and #4. I also prefer the longer length of the larger size. Go for what feels right too!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276197 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 20:56:58 +0000 gryffin 2276197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet it depends on how you are going to wear them.&nbsp; The small is good, I actually like either long or bracelet sleeves.&nbsp; But it is more classic.&nbsp; What I love about a good boyfriend blazer is you can button it over leather or other leggings as a blazer dress or wear it open.&nbsp; I find them super versatile.&nbsp; I do like both sizes on you.&nbsp; In answer to trendy, it depends if you follow trends.&nbsp; I wear boyfriend blazers as a silhouette, it doesn't matter what is in I have cropped, fitted, boyfriend, long - to me they are trendless because I don't care.&nbsp; But not everyone feels that way so you must follow your own heart on this!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276192 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 20:30:08 +0000 Star (Lise) 2276192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes if they already annoying it is a NO.&nbsp; And I fully understand the need to layer underneath.&nbsp; I think the answer is already clear </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276191 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 20:29:32 +0000 LJP 2276191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I prefer the small. From what I understand having read about this - the “ extra” in the relaxed boyfriend fit isn’t supposed to come from an extended shoulder , necessarily . The larger size seems slightly out of proportion. Those mules - LOVE . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276189 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 20:28:06 +0000 Janet 2276189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Star, I know what you mean. I’ve just been wearing the small for a few minutes while I put some folded laundry away, and the too-short sleeves really are annoying — I think that may be the deal breaker. Another benefit to the medium would be more ability to layer underneath. Hmmm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276188 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 20:26:31 +0000 Carla 2276188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the fit in #1-2 much better than #3-4, and the sleeves don’t look to short to me. &nbsp;(I’ve had sleeves let down by a tailor, if it <i>really&nbsp;</i>bothers you.) &nbsp;It’s a very handsome blazer with a wonderful print.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276187 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 20:24:37 +0000 Star (Lise) 2276187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that the Medium is trendy and the Small is classic.&nbsp; Now it is up to you - no help I know :)&nbsp; At this point in my life I am leaning towards more classic than trendy when it comes to classic items like blazers IYKWIM.&nbsp; Love those mules btw.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marble-print-blazer---two-sizes#post-2276185 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 20:20:47 +0000 Janet 2276185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The size small of the marble print blazer arrived. Pics 1-2 are the small; pics 3-4 are the medium.</p> <p>The small fits more like a traditional blazer cut on me. The only part that bugs me is that the sleeves are too short. Otherwise it feels like a normal blazer. </p> <p>The medium definitely has the more boyfriend look that’s currently popular. My hope is to wear this for years though, not satisfy a trend itch. I do prefer the overall length of the medium. But I do wonder, does that boyfriend vibe look like it will be terribly dated quickly? I suppose I could have it tailored in the future if I really feel a change is needed. </p> <p>Thoughts or opinions? </p> <p>LJP, if you pop in, I forgot to answer your question about these shoes! They are Dolce Vita mules— a rare pair of mules that don’t fly off my feet! </p>
