I couldn’t wait to take photos with my new blazer even with the ill fitting sleeves. So here it is…
Blazer: H&M {style #037443} – size 2 (similar here)
Purse: Chanel m/l
Shoes: Ivanka Trump – size 4 (buy here)

The sleeves are very wide and long thus causing the bunching effect. I cuffed them up a couple of inches to try to make it work for this post. I’ve decided to spend the money and slim the sleeves. I think it will make a big difference.
Measurements:
Shoulder to shoulder – 13.5″
Armpit to armpit – 14.5″
Sleeves – 23.5″
Widest part of sleeves – 5.5″
Total length of front – 21″
Total length of back – 19.5″
Material: 66% poly, 33% viscose, 1% elastane
The quality is decent and fully lined. I love the button detail on the sleeve and it comes with an extra button on the inside tag (love extra buttons). One thing I did notice about this blazer is the material is prone to snags. I saw a few blemishes on mine already. Due to the light color, stains will probably be an issue so be I’ll have to be extra careful.
Anyone else pick up this blazer and how will you style it?

I looove that pink skirt!! You're a size 4 in shoes! How cute!
Beautiful woman. Your beauty shines brightly with this lovely jacket, the lovely skirt, and those wild animal-print pumps. It must be Summer already because you really turned up the heat on this one!

Thats gorgeous! Love the Chanel!
What a beautiful blazer! Love the cut.
Love, love, love this outfit Annie! Great color combination. I actually want to pickup the black version; it'll be more versatile with my wardrobe.
Love the blazer. Can't wait to see how it look after alternations!
This entire outfit is so dreamy and pretty. One of my fave looks on your blog recently.
I love the "X" it forms when closed – really highlights the figure! The sleeves seem a little wide but definitely not too bad. Love it with the pink and animal print!
Thanks for the blazer review. I still want one =)
Great outfit! Love that blazer!
I love the fit of this on you and really like the closure. I'm glad you mentioned about the snags, that makes it a no no for accident prone me 😛
Great jacket!……..but I definitely agree with you on the slimming and shortening of the sleeves. Congratulations on finding the last one in your size (don't you just love that feeling)!! Lol
Great blazer find! It fits you great and I don't think I would have noticed that you cuffed up the sleeves if you didn't mention it.
I've been looking at that blazer in the store but I think it suits your body shape much better. Wow- the black and white photos really show how big the sleeves are! Love the ensemble.
You never disappoint. Such flawless style.
I like the blazer so i hope you can keep it in good condition. I hate when I get something I like and manage to ruin it before I tire of it.
