Where do you buy your blazers?

I need to buy some blazers. I'm a tall size 6-8 and want some that are a bit fitted and hit at the hip level. I could go hunting through Macys and Bloomingdales but I was hoping to save some time and just get a bunch of recommendations from you guys :)

Re: Where do you buy your blazers?

  • Ann Taylor or WMBH usually have selection.   There may be some in the Scandal collection from The Limited.  Banana Republic. 

    I usually scour online instead of digging through stores when I am looking for something specific.  If I can buy online and return in the store, I usually go that route.

  • Loft and Ann Taylor.  Sometimes Old Navy has some that are great for business casual to casual conversion.

  • Ok, thanks, I have a banana republic coupon and they are actually on the same plaza as Ann Taylor Loft and WMBH (or is it WHBM?) so maybe I'll take off a little early next week and try to drive down there. I buy everything online except for clothing. I'm just so picky that I feel like I usually need to try on 10 things to buy 1 that I like and the thought of charging all that to the card and then worrying about returning it is just not comfortable.

  • I'm another Banana Republic/Ann Taylor girl.  I also have a few JCrew suits/jackets, and I've had some luck finding jackets at Nordstrom Rack if you have one in your area.

  • Also, I score a lot of great things from all of these stores at our local resale shop.  I often find things with tags and it lets me try new looks with very little risk in terms of $$.  Some of my favorite things are from there.  The key is to find one that carries the brands mentioned (and doesn't trend down to Target or up to couture).

  • I always have to Google WMBH. I always get it wrong. I call it Black market White house. It makes more sense in my head.
  • Banana Repulic and The Limited.  I believe The Limited offers Tall sizes online.

  • Talbots has some beautiful ones right now... just bought the black velvet one.
  • I was also going to chime in on the limited. They can be pricey, but I have found some good sales on them in the clearance section that match existing pants I have just fine.
