i'm looking for a white blazer for spring and came across these two:
the top one is from BR, and i have it on hold at the store. the bottom one is Marc by Marc Jacobs ... i love it and it's super cute, but is it worth double the price of the BR blazer?
I actually like the BR one better - not as trendy so it will be more versatile for you in the long run.
ON has some really cute ones right now too - obviously not of same quality as a Marc blazer but most are only $30.
(flower is detachable)
$35
There is another one as well (I got it in pink this weekend) but it's not up on the site yet. It's a three pocket/three button style, on sale for $30 as well, and very nicely lined I might add.

DITTO! I was blown away by the MJ one and not at all by any of the others. If you want that extra special something I guess it'll cost you; get the MJ and you'll wear it forever (or as long as you fit it :p ).
though it's more on the casual side than the br or mj ones. i too like the mj one better. i don't really think it's trendy, it just has some detailing that makes it more interesting to me than the the br one so i prefer it. but i also like the ae one.
If you want to wear it in a super conservative work-type environment, I say the BR one. I would try it on first though because BR blazers tend to be kind of frumpy.
I absolutely LOVE the MJ one. I would get that one if you are planning to wear it out or in a casual, trendy workplace.
I'd say it depends on your lifestyle. I personally would get the MJ blazer because it's really cool and more unique than the BR one. Although if something like the BR one is what your're going for, I like the looks of the ON and AE ones.
