Thanks, Fabbers!
@Jjsloane: That’s probably the best solution for me too. I think that the whole coat thing is the main reason I’m not a big blazer wearer even though I love and collect them.
@Suz: I understand why you are in Ceit’s camp--your climate makes an outerwear topper a necessity for a good part of the year!
@DonnaF and Diana: A few of my blazers are doable but I have some with more padding that just look ridiculous. The Nic and Zoe are easy--but the padded ones, not so much!
@sarah: I hope you post your trenches but I totally understand if you don’t have time. I have been reviewing Firecracker’s trench posts and that helped me rule out a few. Nordstrom has a few potentials in petite sizing that I’m thinking about. First, though, I need to post my current trench(s) and see if they really need replacing or not. Hope all is well with you!
