Best MM blazer/suit coat of your life?

[sunnysideup488]

I shopped all over on Friday night/ Saturday morning and can't find a blazer that works for me anywhere.

I will order one online, if you all know of an amazing one. The few I tried on were really tight in the shoulders / biceps. (maybe carrying C around in her car seat will tone my arms. Haha)

The bigger sizes fit my arms, but the rest of it looked frumpy.

Bonus points if it comes in multiple colors.

What's "best" for me may not be "best" for you, it's all about fit. You just have to keep trying. I have a couple suits from Talbots but they could just as easily be awful for you.

I am lazy and don't like shopping, so I order from various places and make one trip to the mall to do returns in-store after I've made a decision.

This is not the best blazer of my life, but it's definitely decent quality and very well-priced (now only the blush is left, but it's a great color for spring/summer and early fall).
It's a longer cut, which is great b/c it lengthens your torso nicely (which I like b/c I have a short torso).

Overall, my favorite blazers (which are way more pricey) are Helmut Lang.

ETA:  sunnysideup488, i forgot to add that i found this blazer b/c of keaton row.  not that i want to pimp out that service, and this is the only thing she recommended that i really liked, but i asked my stylist for a selection of blazers and she did give me a lot of options - this one turned out well.  might be worth a shot for you.

I have to size up to fit my shoulders and then have the rest tailored to remove the frumpiness. I've never found a perfect fit off the rack, sorry!

Ugh. Professional wear is a pain in the ass.

I may just have to have some frumpy ones tailored.

I like knit blazers--they tend to be the most forgiving.
