Janet and RobinF, thanks for chiming in.

Janet, actually I didn’t think I had that issue before, because my area of concern has been the midsection for years. I remember I had a bit of a hard time years ago when I had to surrender my waist… So I always assess everything I wear from that perspective. But regarding this blazer, someone pointed out the length and I started wondering…

Both are great. KEEP!

Yes, I think both look great on you. Keep!

Keep both! The colors are stunning on you! Yes, shorten the sleeves a bit on the orange. I don’t see any challenges with the length of the red blazer. The focal point is not on the length. I think it looks fabulous and also think that you will not have any problem styling it.

Katerina, any shade of red will create a lower contrast. You can pull the tonal look together with one of your fab scarves!

Also, any dark colour will create a lower contrast with the red - like black, charcoal, dark denim, navy, chocolate, eggplant.

Bonnie, Catherine and Mainelady, thank you. I think both will be keepers.

Angie, thank you very much! I will definitely try the tonal look - sounds like a fun outfit. And of course the darker colors.

Both are fabulous. I would wear that orange jacket in a heartbeat -- LOVE. The red jacket is also wonderful. I don't find that length unflattering at all -- I find it rather classic -- but I never was fully comfortable with short blazers, so.. Anyway, I think it look great on you.
