I snagged this at Goodwill for $5.95, but blazers such as this sell on Talbots.com for up to $189. This one is a mix of cotton and spandex which will help it keep its shape through out the day.<\/p>\n<p>For accessories, I found a \u201cnew without tags\u201d pair of denim peep toe sling backs from Franco Sarto. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/image4.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-4145\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/image4-1024x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"475\" data-size=\"1512x1512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/image4-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/image4-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/image4-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/image4-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/image4-840x840.jpeg 840w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/image4.jpeg 1512w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/> <\/a>They matched the blazer perfectly and were soft and comfortable.
