H&M Cropped Blazer

I couldn't wait to take photos with my new blazer even with the ill fitting sleeves. So here it is...

Top: Ann Taylor factory {old} - size XXSP (similar here or here)
Blazer: H&M {style #037443} - size 2 (similar here)
Skirt: Petite Sophisticate {old} - size 0 (love this waterfloral or similar here and neon azalea)
Purse: Chanel m/l
Shoes: Ivanka Trump - size 4 (buy here)

The sleeves are very wide and long thus causing the bunching effect. I cuffed them up a couple of inches to try to make it work for this post. I've decided to spend the money and slim the sleeves.  I think it will make a big difference.

The quality is decent and fully lined. I love the button detail on the sleeve and it comes with an extra button on the inside tag (love extra buttons).  One thing I did notice about this blazer is the material is prone to snags. I saw a few blemishes on mine already. Due to the light color, stains will probably be an issue so be I'll have to be extra careful.

Anyone else pick up this blazer and how will you style it?
