Target - YOU GO NOW! (boyfriend blazer)

Mossimo Black one-button blazer retails online for $34.99. Boyfriend blazer look? Bullseye! You go now!



Size S - This has to be the same blazer as the one above. I purchased this for $29.99 in-store. Target may be doing the higher-price online thing to off-set the Free Shipping when you spend $50 or more. They've had that offer for quite some time.

Up close
J Crew bright spearmint tank (SU08, M), thrifted faux pearls.


The jacket is fully lined, with a striped lining in the sleeves.


Open
The shoulder pad kind of bugged out, but I doubt it's really noticeable. They're subtle, not large or "exaggerated" as they are calling them this season (stifles laughter) , so no one should really pick up on the line of them thru the blazer. You didn't even notice till you see it up close, huh?


Ticket/tag

F21 also has a boyfriend style blazer, $24.80. The Jaques 3/4 Sleeve Blazer comes in black and runs S-L. I haven't tried this on or seen it in person. Use chic21 to save 10% on $70 (or $75) or more thru 9/3.



Did I take enough pics? *lol*

Check it out on Polyvore Pictures.

Chime in...

  11. * Genny - ITA not to mention that this is a recycled trend from the 80s.

    * Sweet Tea - *lol* Thanks

    * izzyb - I have noticed that on their site, too.

    * Sarah - This one is worth going back for. It felt great on.

    * The Outfit of the day - It *feeeels* fancy, too ;-)

    * Dr.Drama & Sarah - Thank you :-)

    * FFM - Oh yeah. I don't mess around @ Target anymore. I have to get it and decide later. If I go back, things are gone, gone, gone. I am 100% sure this will be a keeper. If it weren't so hot I would have worn it already.

    * Ashley - Tarjay definitely nailed this one.

    * bug pin - Yes, you go now! See? *lol*

  18. I wasn't sure about the boyfriend blazer trend because I like my blazers fitted. But, I am a blazerholic (I have 7 already), so I decided to give this one a shot. It's great! It's still fitted but slouchy, and the shoulder pads aren't that bad. Plus, at $29.99, the price is perfect for the trend.

    Thanks for the heads up, Gigi! My local Target has been going through a major reset/remodel, and it has been sooo frustrating to shop there. It was nice to find this little gem. :)
