The black blazer was a complete disaster. The fit was awful, the fabric too thick for our climate, I didn’t realize it’s double breasted until I got it (that style does me no favors) & it was difficult to button. Back it went.

However, I found a short-sleeved, single-button blazer that I like a lot better. I received it today, & it’s perfect for me. Although it’s an animal print instead of a solid color, I have lots of solid-colored tops that will work well with it. I was, quite honestly, very hesitant to order this one. I thought the black one would look better on me. This just goes to show that it’s a good idea to try different things. This blazer will actually be more versatile for me than the black one.
