There is something so tough yet so feminine about a blazer. All my best have been found at thrift and vintage stores. Good luck in your search.

I haven't gotten mine yet either. I'm torn between over the top sequins and more versatile boyfriend. Sigh.

Loving the blazer look but I don't think I could pull it off! Should go searching for a cheap one at a thrift store one day.

Oh and I actually think the Gianfranco Ferre blazer on my website would be perfect on you ;)

Ooh...I am with you. Definitely loving the boyfriend blazer look, as well. I'd say go with a black one so that you can wear it tons, like a comfy sweater almost. PS Thank you so much for your sweet Feather comment!!

I'm not part of the cool club either! I can't find one that works for me! EFFFF!!!!!!!!!!

Luckily it's 102 today and the thought of wearing one makes me want to die so I have a lil time. BUT EFFFFFFF!!!!!!!

I don't spell bad words either. Except bitch. Oops. hahahaha!!!

I found one at Club Monaco recently...nothing fancy mind you, but well tailored and basic black. Best of luck in your search.
