Right, and therein lies the problem for me. Most days it's just business casual, so I'm not usually wearing a suit jacket or blazer. The easy answer would be to size down, but I'm already wearing a small!

I'd be willing to forget about more traditional styles like trenches and macs, but I'm having a hard time finding some that are professional, and don't have a thousand pockets. Brooks Bros is a natural choice, but I've found that even their slim fit is very baggy on me. My old standby, J. Crew, has failed me so far too....
