I added in a blazer category a few months ago hoping to add in a bit more variety to the blog, I love hoodies, but sometimes its fun to change things up a bit. Unfortunately I haven’t found that many blazers and jackets that I want to put on here, so that category has remained pretty empty since its inception. Hopefully I can change that in the future, especially since I found out last month that I look pretty dashing in a jacket.

Anyway, that intro was way too long. I really like this blazer, like the CaliRoots people say, it is a “nice cut jacket!”, with a cool pattern (something which seems to be all the rage at the mo) and some interesting details, such as the lack of buttons on the front - is it a coat or a jacket? - and having a button on the left pocket but not on the right. Okay, fair enough, all the cool details seem to revolve around buttons, but I guess buttons can be pretty interesting sometimes.

Forgive me if I’m wrong, but am I the only person who doesn’t remember Andy Warhol as being a designer of understated hoodies? Well, I have no idea if he’d be turning in his grave at the thought of his name being used on a clothing line like this, but I personally think that this hoodie is pretty cool, even if it is a lot simpler and quieter than most of the stuff that I put on here Monday through Friday. The placement is a little off-centre, and the print goes right up to the armpit, which just makes the design feel more complete somehow, not taking the half-assed method and only printing the part that is usually visible from the front. And the buttons on the kangaroo pockets are a pretty cool idea too, since it has happened to me in the past that I’ve things from a split kangaroo pocket, so I’m all for anything to stop those kinds of unfortunate instances, although I can’t help but feel that the hoodie would look a bit neater if the buttons weren’t there…
