That said, I like the smaller size on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-or-nay-oxblood-blazer-with-rolled-up-sleeves#post-780372 Thu, 22 Nov 2012 04:25:57 +0000 rae 780372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the smaller size and prefer it worn closed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-or-nay-oxblood-blazer-with-rolled-up-sleeves#post-780265 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 23:07:40 +0000 Caro in Oz 780265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What TS said - the shoulder need to fit well otherwise it won't work. Love the colour &amp; shape on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-or-nay-oxblood-blazer-with-rolled-up-sleeves#post-780151 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 19:36:18 +0000 Suz 780151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shoulder fit is key, and no, a jacket should NOT feel restrictive if it fits properly. Structured but not restrictive. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-or-nay-oxblood-blazer-with-rolled-up-sleeves#post-780132 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 19:14:08 +0000 Transcona Shannon 780132@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous colour on you and I love the shape of the jacket. I would try the next size up too for comparison. To me, it's the shoulder fit that is the most important in a jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-or-nay-oxblood-blazer-with-rolled-up-sleeves#post-780131 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 19:07:33 +0000 Emily 780131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all I think I will nip out to the mall after work and snap some pix of the larger size and open. In general I preferred the look closed when I tried this on the first time. I am wearing a thinner shell underneath in the picture, probably I should try it over something with sleeves...</p> <p>The shoulders felt a little restrictive, but all jackets will do that at least a bit, right? When I took the over the shoulder mirror back shot I didn't feel like I was going to bust a seam, but it wasn't as easy as in a cardigan. I just have one jacket currently so I'm not very familiar with what a correct fit feels like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-or-nay-oxblood-blazer-with-rolled-up-sleeves#post-780117 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:52:42 +0000 cciele 780117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, try a size up! Love the color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-or-nay-oxblood-blazer-with-rolled-up-sleeves#post-780114 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:51:24 +0000 Thistle 780114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Color is great, style is flattering on you.</p> <p>I would try the next size up just to see how it fits, especially if you plan to layer under it. It looks a touch snug in the shoulders, and that will make it very uncomfortable the longer you wear it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-or-nay-oxblood-blazer-with-rolled-up-sleeves#post-780111 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:48:30 +0000 Suz 780111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd try one size up to see....the shoulders look on the edge here? It's really nice on you, though, and if it feels good and you plan to wear it open, maybe this is not a deal-breaker if the next size up feels too boxy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-or-nay-oxblood-blazer-with-rolled-up-sleeves#post-780099 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:30:34 +0000 cjh 780099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To me it looks like a perfect fit. No gaping, closes perfectly in the front, shoulder lines seem to fall directly on your own. But if you want to wear over a heavier top, or the armholes are too snug, then you could try a larger size. Then you just have to see what you prefer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-or-nay-oxblood-blazer-with-rolled-up-sleeves#post-780088 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:23:52 +0000 Anonymous 780088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the colour a lot. I would like to see a size up on this one too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-or-nay-oxblood-blazer-with-rolled-up-sleeves#post-780025 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 17:21:09 +0000 bj1111 780025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>great color...looks plummy. like the high-low. how does it feel in the shoulders? how about it unbuttoned? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-or-nay-oxblood-blazer-with-rolled-up-sleeves#post-780020 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 17:19:29 +0000 Emily 780020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello, virtual shopping buddies... what do you think of this Blazer? If you like it, how would you style it?</p> <p>Now that I'm looking at those pictures, I'm thinking I should size up...</p> <p>ETA Pics 4-8. Unfortunately the M is too snug with sleeves underneath, but the L is too big. If it goes on sale I may pick it up to wear open or with sleeveless tops, but otherwise I will have to pass Too bad, I like the cut.</p> <p>1-4: Size M, 1-3 with a sleeveless top underneath, 4 with a longer sleeved top<br /> 4-8: Size M, with a longer sleeved top underneath </p>
