white blazer
Permalink Closed


i'm looking for a white blazer for spring and came across these two:




the top one is from BR, and i have it on hold at the store.  the bottom one is Marc by Marc Jacobs ... i love it and it's super cute, but is it worth double the price of the BR blazer?

I actually like the BR one better - not as trendy so it will be more versatile for you in the long run.


ON has some really cute ones right now too - obviously not of same quality as a Marc blazer but most are only $30.


(flower is detachable)


$35


 


There is another one as well (I got it in pink this weekend) but it's not up on the site yet.  It's a three pocket/three button style, on sale for $30 as well, and very nicely lined I might add.

Sorry but I will always love MJ. I think its unique, not trendy, and you will still be able to wear it and love it forever.

DITTO!  I was blown away by the MJ one and not at all by any of the others.  If you want that extra special something I guess it'll cost you; get the MJ and you'll wear it forever (or as long as you fit it :p ).

though it's more on the casual side than the br or mj ones. i too like the mj one better. i don't really think it's trendy,  it just has some detailing that makes it more interesting to me than the the br one so i prefer it. but i also like the ae one.

If you want to wear it in a super conservative work-type environment, I say the BR one.  I would try it on first though because BR blazers tend to be kind of frumpy.


I absolutely LOVE the MJ one.  I would get that one if you are planning to wear it out or in a casual, trendy workplace.

I'd say it depends on your lifestyle. I personally would get the MJ blazer because it's really cool and more unique than the BR one. Although if something like the BR one is what your're going for, I like the looks of the ON and AE ones.

I think the first one is way more timeless than the second. Unless you have money to burn i'd go for #1
