I already have a blazer or two that's coat-heavy, so probably do not need another. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trouve-blazer-going-back-help-me-pick-out-an-alternate#post-393025 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 01:48:27 +0000 modgrl 393025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>April, The length was good (I think?) but there was too much fabric at the torso. The chest was in the wrong place. If my boobs were about 3" lower or double DD's, it would have been perfect. This is really my biggest fit problem with all clothes, and why I have to shop in petites. I remember you saying that you normally shop in regular sizes so it may work for you. Sarah had the small on recently and she is only 5'2". It looked wonderful in her pictures although she said it was too tight across the shoulders. </p> <p>The only thing I'll say about this coat that I really didn't like is that it's heavy. It is not really a blazer, it's super warm. I don't think I could wear it all day as part of an outfit... maybe for kicking around errands on the weekend but not to work. It's more like a short winter wool coat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trouve-blazer-going-back-help-me-pick-out-an-alternate#post-393021 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 01:41:34 +0000 April 393021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MG -- the Trouve was too long/loose on you? I still have yet to make any NAS purchases. That one was on my list, but if it's not great on shorter people, I'll be passing.</p> <p>Love all the options from Angie's petite client! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trouve-blazer-going-back-help-me-pick-out-an-alternate#post-392942 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 00:12:46 +0000 Freckles 392942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can't wait to see it on you...</p> <p>Glad something worked out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trouve-blazer-going-back-help-me-pick-out-an-alternate#post-392775 Wed, 27 Jul 2011 19:11:37 +0000 Angie 392775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your body double is indeed very fab :)</p> <p>I can't wait to see your new jackets on fab you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trouve-blazer-going-back-help-me-pick-out-an-alternate#post-392746 Wed, 27 Jul 2011 17:53:13 +0000 modgrl 392746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want to meet my body double! She seems pretty fab! Thank you so much for taking the time to post these suggestions. I wasn't too excited about the tweed jacket online but it is so fab in person. Love at first sight, of course I had to get it. I LOVE the leather jacket, and love it on others, it just didn't feel right on me. I will have to try the others, maybe even the Burberry, although it's way out of my budget! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trouve-blazer-going-back-help-me-pick-out-an-alternate#post-392650 Wed, 27 Jul 2011 15:50:20 +0000 jazM 392650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i have one similar to that one i bout mine in Macy's but mine is blue i love it i dress it down up anything!! i say you go for it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trouve-blazer-going-back-help-me-pick-out-an-alternate#post-392619 Wed, 27 Jul 2011 15:22:24 +0000 Freckles 392619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good luck with Angie's advice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trouve-blazer-going-back-help-me-pick-out-an-alternate#post-392549 Wed, 27 Jul 2011 14:09:54 +0000 Angie 392549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rita, are you 5ft and wear a size 2 to 4 in petites? If you are, I have a client who is your body double. She also has wide feet - in fact she needs a WW in shoes. She also has your colouring! </p> <p>These jackets were absolutely magnificent on her: </p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/halogen-tiered-leather-jacket/3167924?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ha.....sultback=0</a></p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/halogen-peplum-sweater-jacket/3167823?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ha.....sultback=0</a></p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/burberry-brit-quilted-jacket/3180331?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=827" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/bu.....ltback=827</a></p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/halogen-belted-tweed-jacket-petite/3171120?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=902" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ha.....ltback=902</a></p> <p>I kinda passed out from her style quotient.

I'm checking out this Frenchi flip collar blazer instead. All of the reviews say it runs small - it might actually fit me. Anyone seen it in person? </p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/frenchi-flip-collar-blazer-juniors/3156228?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=1420" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/fr.....tback=1420</a> </p>
