Structured jacket rec request with pic

trinity

Needing recommendations for structured jackets to add to my Christmas wish list. I've realized my closet is full of unstructured jackets - possibly my unsuccessful subconscious attempt to hide weight gain. Included a pic in this post per Angie's request. Thanks for any suggestions.

This is a nice outfit, Trinity! My blazers are from the thrift store so I can't help you, but I wanted to say how nice you look. I love these colors!

Thanks, Claire. I like this jacket but it's not very structured. I've been scouring the web for some structured jackets to put on my wish list but am getting overwhelmed!

Maybe if you defined "structured" or described a look you're going for. Structured like a J. Crew riding jacket or blazer? A Chanel-type of jacket? Cropped? Etc. Ann Taylor has some great sales going on right now.

Have you tried Talbots? I think a low stance structured blazer would be lovely on you. Many of them have added stretch for comfort. Another idea is the Gibson riding jacket from Nordstrom.

I have several but most are past seasons. New York & Co is a good bet http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Yo.....20bf8d88e4 I find they run big, though, and had to have this teal velvet size 4 taken in.

EDIT: Victoria's Secret might be worth a shot as they are into accentuating the female form in general lol http://search2.victoriassecret.com/?q=blazer

Do you have any special size requirements? I love J. Crew's blazers because they offer petite and tall, up to size 16 on their website. Nordstrom is great too, of course.
