***So I thought I published this but it seems it was sitting in my drafts!
I apologize for this old post but I figure since I wrote it, might as well put it up :P***
It’s no secret I’m a blazer girl. A blazer can just take any outfit up a level. H&M has had great selection of blazers lately. This one caught my eye because of the fun elbow patches.
Blazer: H&M size 4
Jeans: Gap Jean Leggings 00R
Tank: J.Crew Pleated Flutter Shell XXS (purchased from Really Petite’s Blog Sale)
Shoes: Nine West size 7
The sleeves are a bit long on me which actually doesn’t bother me too much but I’ve been rolling up the sleeves a bit like in the picture below:
Too bad the lining of the sleeves wasn’t more “fun”!
I love the back detail of this blazer too!
This blazer works well especially for petites since it hits right at the hips. The button placement at the front and the detail in the back accentuate the waist too.
(with much better pictures than mine!)
Has anyone else purchased this or any other blazer from H&M lately?
Shop a similar look:
hey, elaine! hope you had a very nice christmas.
i’m totally a blazer girl, too! the fit is amazing on you, and i have to agree with you–the back detail is awesome! you have a very nice figure.
happy new year to you, elaine!

Thank you Jen and you’re very welcome! I had a great Christmas weekend and am just taking it easy this week
Oh booo that it didn’t fit, but yay to saving $! Sometimes H&M really gets me in the wallet
Thanks Kat!
I know I love that detail! Adds femininity to the kind of menswear blazer
I did!! I actually got it a while ago and silly me didn’t post!
Thanks NP! I’m really impressed with the fit of H&M blazers.
Thanks Jessy, yeah I wear it all the time LOL!
I know I love them too – reminds me of “professors” even though I never had a prof that had elbow patches
I love the blazer outfit and your right a blazer can change an outfit so easily! I’ve never purchased a H&M one, but I need to look more.
Hope you had a fantastic holiday and thanks Elaine for always supporting my blog and t+j Designs
I love H&M blazers! They’re one of the few brands that actually fit my petite frame properly, and they’re always so reasonably priced and super cute! If I saw this one during my last trip there, I probably would have grabbed it for myself. Adorable
Looks good on you. I tried this after Jean’s review but my hips did not want to fit in. So sad. Anyway, saved me some moolah.
i really like that blazer!! very cute!
I love the elbow patches and the semi-scalloped back of this blazer! Looks like it fits you beautifully
Great! You got this little blazer too! The elbow patches are the best part, and I agree I wish the sleeve lining was a little more fun. =)
Love the folded sleeves look and blazer fits you perfectly!
This blazer is too cute on you. I can see you wearing it multiple times!
Love the elbow patches…I’ve always thought this blazer was super cute!
