I know this is late in the thread, but I saw MOlaw’s posting about the immigration firm internship and wanted to chime in… are you there?

Nordstrom Rack had a very similar jacket in plus sizes when I was there 2 weeks ago. And I bought it. And I love it. I’m sure it’s not as quality, but it is cute.
Chiming in late, but I was in San Francisco earlier this summer and went to the Nordstrom Rack (requiring a hellish cab ride, as I was staying in Union Square). They had this blazer in black, pink, yellow, white, teal, and another color. I loved them, and ended up bringing home the bright pink and the black. I would have bought more, but I’d already done some serious shopping by this point. Each blazer was $49, so cheaper than this new batch offered via “regular” Nordstrom. My shopping buddy in San Fran said she had gotten the same blazer (or nearly) from Nordstom the previous year, so this might be a recurring item…
I wouldn’t wear this jacket to a formal business meeting (hello, it’s knit!), but I love it for more casual situations. I like wearing this style with cuffed jeans, flats, and a simple top. The material is super soft.
