Blazers are an item people buy and wear once for an interview so they are not too hard usually to pick up used. I know you said you don't want to shop with your LO, but maybe if you can call ahead to some consignment shops and target your trip it wouldn't be so bad.</p> <p>Otherwise, I'd try places with great return policies for online shopping as it can be hard to tell from pictures whether a blazer will be flattering or not on you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shopping-bees-help-need-some-cutebusiness-casual-blazers#post-2629248 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:07:51 +0000 Rocker2014 2629248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love NY&amp;Co for blazers, and I'm a very similar size and shape. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shopping-bees-help-need-some-cutebusiness-casual-blazers#post-2629096 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 10:22:58 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2629096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ValentineMommy: I've also found some similar from target but they don't wash well.

I would suggest taking a look at either a department store (I personally have great luck with Lord and Taylor, particularly the brand Ellen Tracy) or a place like Talbots. They're very true to size. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shopping-bees-help-need-some-cutebusiness-casual-blazers#post-2628976 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 08:44:21 +0000 erinbaderin 2628976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have any blazer suggestions but I would suggest that if you find something you like but aren't happy with the fit think about getting them tailored! If these are going to be staple pieces you wear a lot I think it's worth some extra money to feel great in them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shopping-bees-help-need-some-cutebusiness-casual-blazers#post-2628970 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 08:40:42 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2628970@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Express has a decent selection. </p> <p><a href="http://www.express.com/clothing/women/blazers/cat/cat1910071" rel="nofollow">http://www.express.com/clothing/women/blazers/cat/cat1910071</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shopping-bees-help-need-some-cutebusiness-casual-blazers#post-2628968 Thu, 29 Sep 2016 08:37:25 +0000 MrsBucky 2628968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just relocated to a new office within my same company, but it is more formal so I need to spruce my wardrobe a bit for fall. My husband is leaving the country for work for three weeks, so I have no time to shop solo and there is no chance I'm shopping with my 18 month old. I'd love to get a few business casual style blazers, but I am not sure where to start. I am a size 8/10 but with a large bust, so fit can be a bit tough. Any suggestions for me to check out??? </p>
