I am surprise. Very, very surprise indeed. Though I am a big fan of their denim line, but when it comes to the blazers I try my best to stay away from what they've got to offer. Coz whenever I tried one, it's always this oversized, unfitted, typical Japanese worker jacket feel which I hate the most. That's why I try to avoid it.
But last weekend during my very quick trip to the highstreet, I just can't get my eyes when I see the linen black jacket. It's the color of the fabric - which I think quite glorious black, kinda shimmer a bit - which made me pick it up from the rails. And it's slimfit! I can't wait any longer, I've gotta try it I said. And when I put it on - whoa... this is not a typical Uniqlo blazer. Not even +J jacket gave this kinda feeling to me. Waist-hugging, sharp shoulders, peak lapels, light fabric... and again, very glorious luscious black with remarkable texture, I just can leave without taking this one home with me. And I did.
Oh, the color in the pix doesn't show the exact glorious it is in real life. You've gotta see the actual one to appreciate how awesome it is. =)
