wasnt concerned about the sleeve lol, its actually just caught on my elbow. it doesnt wrap my body well at all... I asked her to move the buttons because she took the seams as far as they would go without having the pockets on the side be covered up by the jacket itself. I think now that the jacket is taken in at the seams i can have her move the buttons all the way. Other wise, i have no idea how to stop the hip flaring. (i saw that and don't really know what to tell her)

Thanks for the input, Idle. I actually just wore it out to dinner and drinks last night and everything felt fine. I think all of this searching and forum browsing has me over exposed to the world of perfect fits (hah!) and most people don't pay too much attention to the minor details anyway.

It seems really short and the bottom & the flaring out definitely makes you look top heavy.
Are you going to a tailor or a dry cleaner/alterations place?

So, Got home and tried on my Jcrew Ludlow Tweed coat i snagged off ebay last night. A couple of concerns regarding fit, let me know what you think. I think the shoulders may be too wide (my shoulders definitely slope down, so fitting jackets to them can be annoying). Also feel like the button stance is an inch or so too low, but manageable.
Thoughts?
