something that looks like this. im actually looking for a cheaper one and that would fit me. coz most of the time, i seldomly find a smaller size for a skinny person like me and considering my height is only 5'5''.

I'm got a 2-button peak lapel wool blazer/sportcoat from Zara for sale: http://www.pinoyexchange.com/forums/showthread.php?t=358630
(it's jacket #2).

I also have a black cotton 3-button notch lapel blazer I haven't used for a while now, that I'm thinking of selling.

I'm around your height so either of these might work for you. PM me if you're interested.

I would go for the plain one.

while the one on the picture looks edgy, it might not look ok with a shirt on a formal occassion.

^ yes the picture posted is definitely not a "formal" jacket. But blazers aren't supposed to be.

Go classic and opt for a basic navy one.

And go to a proper tailor please, if I see another baggy jacket wearing person again, I'm going to peel his skin off.

I think APC small would be slightly too big for him or me. I was considering bidding for one on ebay a while back and checked the measurements.
