To Keep or Not to Keep?

Shirt: Old NAVY, Scraf: F21, Jacket: H&M, Pants: BR, Purse: Sears




The reason I took front and back pictures of this blazer is because I need help of yours. I got this H&M blazer recenlty and now I don't know if I want to keep it or not. The tag is still on and I got 30 days to return it.

Let me run thru smoe pros and cons with you: Pros: Plaid (so 70's trend), its wool blend so will keep me warm in office, love the bottom cut of it, has elbow patches, suede collar. Cons: Bec it is wool blend, it itches my skin around the neck, cost is $40 (keep in mind I am used to $5 blazers - from thrift stores).

So I dont know. What do you say - Keep or Return?

  1. I was going to say keep it because it's cute, but if it's itchy I'd say return it.

  2. I would get rid of it if it were uncomfortable because I avoid itchy/ill fitting pieces in my closet. If you think you'll wear it despite being itchy, it sounds like you like it.

  3. I tried this on today and it IS itchy :( don't keep it - it'll drive you nuts everytime you wear it! Unless you don't find it THAT itchy but for me, it is pretty annoying!

  4. It is so cute. If it felt luxurious, $40 might be fine. But $40 is a bit much for something that is itchy... unless you plan to wear turtlenecks every time you wear the jacket. :)

  5. I'd return it! Comfort is very important for me.

  6. I do love the elbow patches, but I agree with everyone else. If it's itchy, it's a return. I've been really trying to streamline my closet lately, so I'm definitely in the "return" camp!

  7. Thanks for participating 2 times..... I feel like I won the lottery!
    take it back. 40.00 is to much money for that. Go to the thrift store find a tweed or plaid blazer and add the patches. One of my magazines had a had to on that. I'll look to see if I still have it.
    Have a good week my little friend!
