Thanks to my closet twin Paloma for suggesting the coral blazer at Sheinside! It just arrived (after some weird delays in China) and I love it. Bright and fun and polished. Perfect for looking put together in chilly office a/c this summer!

    Love this outfit! I've seen this blazer on a few bloggers out there and want to order one from SheInside myself-- what size did you get and do you feel it runs true to size? I want to make sure I order correctly so I don't have to exchange it!

      I have the same question :). Love this blazer, but am not sure what size to order. I'm usually between a 6 and an 8. Was thinking medium, but would love input on how the sizing runs. Thank you!

      I ordered the medium. (I'm 5'7") I'd say the blazer is just a hair on the small side. The sleeves are 3/4 so the arm length is fine. It fits in the shoulders and I like where it hits me on my hip. But (as is often the case with my body shape) my chest makes it pretty snug if I try to close it. So I probably wouldn't mind it if I had bought the large but I'm happy with the medium. Hope that helps!

    Closet twins forever! :) So glad you got this, it looks great on you and I am SO copying this outfit.
    Love SheInside but the shipping is funky and takes a crazy long time....

      Definitely! I think that you could sub in just about any color blazer (or cardigan) and it would look great!

    I love this blazer! I have heard mixed reviews on SheInside, what was your experience as far as fit and quality?

    Thanks,

      I like the fit but I'd say it's on the lower end of quality. Something along the lines that you'd find at Forever 21. But since I think it's more of a trendy piece then a life long staple (and it is so cheap) - I'm okay if it doesn't stand the test of time. :)
