I’ve searched the clothing threads can’t find where to buy career jackets/Blazers for women. I’ve seen these lately with a different color trim, bright colored, etc. I don’t mean typical suit jacket but more of a mix and match that still looks professional. Anyone?
I love White House – Black Market ones. They are pretty and professional jackets. I have looked everywhere and that is the only place I found where jackets do not look like they were cut for men 🙂
If you're looking for something a little more laid-back, I like a lot of the ones at H&M. Economical ($40-$60/jacket I think), and so far seem to hold up really well. I've found a couple that I can dress up or dress down, and they look great either way. 🙂
I like Banana Republic. They have some cute traditional but in fun designs/colors. However, they are on the expensive side so I usually wait until they have a suiting sale.
I've seen certain blazers where the collar is leather but it looks like a normal blazer. It gives it a very nice edgy feel. I've seen it at ASOS. I have 2 black blazers, both from Macy's. Good quality. I really like their Calvin Klein collection. Other places I normally buy from is LOFT. They're a little pricey as well but I normally wait for their sale, which is NOW… 40% off. Also, I follow extrapetite.com for fashion ideas. I'm not petite but her selections are nice.

I second White House Black Market! Express is another one of my go-to's. And I'm not afraid to admit that I sometimes cave and buy work clothes at Target–unfortunately they tend not to last as long, though.
