Since I already own a few blazers I really like, I'm going to be extra choosy about what to add next.Engineer Leahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07469282997983032376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429381541485535750.post-57941913936562783752015-09-15T20:16:10.959-07:002015-09-15T20:16:10.959-07:00I hate that too.

That way I wouldn't get sized out of certain pieces. It's too bad, because I prefer the pocket and zipper styles of the Factory vest to the retail one.Engineer Leahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07469282997983032376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429381541485535750.post-26784381075285075112015-09-15T08:57:58.977-07:002015-09-15T08:57:58.977-07:00Thanks for reviewing the blazer - very good to kno...Thanks for reviewing the blazer - very good to know that it is scratchy. I have a couple of other blazers from J. Crew that are a bit scratchy too but it's a matter of wearing the right piece underneath. I was so disappointed when J. Crew got rid of the school boy so I'm very glad to see this similar fit still at factory.Luxettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17272560091052389518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429381541485535750.post-19801401778886997352015-09-14T19:48:22.888-07:002015-09-14T19:48:22.888-07:00So glad you reviewed the vest!

The reviews on the site were kind of mixed when it came to sizing and I hate having to order two sizes just to return one. :)Kimi, Cotton Cashmere Cat Hairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14578096643257382262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429381541485535750.post-55132870274666575882015-09-14T18:56:16.343-07:002015-09-14T18:56:16.343-07:00I agree with your comments on the herringbone vest...I agree with your comments on the herringbone vest--I much prefer the oatmeal/black combination to this year's gray version. I wish I had ordered a size down when I ordered mine last fall, but at least it means there's extra room for layers underneath!Caroline @ Tasteful Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01860290577185326924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429381541485535750.post-71859346310051823152015-09-14T18:24:15.029-07:002015-09-14T18:24:15.029-07:00Thanks for the reviews!
