Fit Review! Frank & Eilleen Dublin Sweatshirt Blazer and Eileen Relaxed Button Up Shirt Italian Flannel
I can't believe it's November. This year is really going by fast. It's definitely fall weather here in Atlanta and heading towards winter now that it gets dark so early. I hate this time of the year. It's probably why I just want to live in my cozy clothes and Frank & Eileen definitely delivers in that department.
For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size XS. I also wear size 4/6 in Lululemon and PXS in Athleta.
Dublin Sweatshirt Blazer Size XS
Length of the sleeves cuffed and uncuffed.
The Dublin Sweatshirt Blazer has got to be the comfiest blazer I've ever tried on. It's made of sweatshirt material and it's casual enough that I don't feel super dressed up but at the same tine it's office friendly. Best of both worlds!
This is actually my second one of these blazers. I also have one in Navy. I'm wearing size XS and I think it's petite friendly, except the sleeves are a tad long. I like to cuff them up once.
It is an open front blazer, so no closures or buttons. I wear it like a cardigan that I throw over pretty much anything. By the way, you can machine wash and dry and they come out looking like new. No dry cleaning for this brand. Which is another reason why I love their clothes.
The length looks and feels great in size XS.
Is it pricey for what it is? Absolutely. I wait until their end of season sale to make my purchases. Just keep an eye out, but once the sale starts do not hesitate because size XS sells out pretty fast. It's typically up to 40% off. Sometimes you can find items for 70% off, which is so good. F&E is hard to pass up when it's on super sale.
I really love their flannel button up shirts. I'm wearing size XS and there's a chance I would fit into size XXS, but I prefer a relaxed fit. For a more fitted look, definitely size down.
This is a medium weight flannel and feels super soft and cozy. I have worn it on its own and under a blazer or vest.
Sleeve length is a little long, but I always roll them up.
Slightly longer length in the back that offers full coverage.
Frank & Eileen is pricey, but when it's on sale, I think it's 100% worth it. Let me know if you have any F&E pieces and if yes, which items are your favorite? The Dublin Sweatshirt and the Mini Belfast peacoat are a must have for fall weather. That's it for me! Hope you all have a fabulous start to November!

The flannel looks so cozy! I love the whole outfit, but I have no use for a blazer. If I did though, I'd definitely pick one up based on your review. Comfy and no dry cleaning, amazing!
ReplyDeleteHi there! I wear the flannels a lot during the fall/winter. I admit I only really wear the blazers to the office, although I should try pairing them with jeans on a weekend out for a more elevated look than my usual hoodies!
