You can do a lot with that jacket!  I'd personally pair it with dark jeans.

Do you want to dress it up or down?

Staying with the Nanette Lepore style, I'd only pair it with a pencil skirt or mermaid skirt, something fitted and sexy.

Not to hijack the thread, but what is a mermaid skirt?  It sounds pretty.

thanks, everyone!  i had planned on mainly wearing it with dark jeans and pencil skirts so it helps to have confirmation on that!  suasoria - i wear jeans more than skirts so i will probably dress it down more often i guess.  

i am still sort of torn on tops though.  i'm thinking a colorful tank or blouse but i haven't seen anything i just love yet.  boots - thanks for the suggestions - they actually have that black and white polka dot blouse paired with the jacket on a display so i tried it on with the jacket in the store.  it looked cute but i'm not sure if it's really my style so i left without it.  plus, the blouse was a bit overpriced for the quality ($30 or 40 i think, which is a lot for a polyester blouse from F21!).

I didn't even look at the prices, but $30 is a lot for a blouse at XX21!

I wear short sleeve blazers with jeans a lot during the summer. When I don't want to think too much about the outfit, I'll pair the blazer with a tank top, a cute necklace and a pair of interesting flats. That might make a good starting point for you to play around with.

This sounds cute!  thanks!  oh about the price - i'd totally pay that for a better quality blouse that i liked - i just didn't like the F21 enough to jusitfy the price.  it is sort of cute though irl.
