To be honest with each others arms round each other and the 'from above' angle it's impossible to tell.

Could be a bit tighter but it depends what sort of look you're going for

Yes the fit is a bit unflattering, but that's the least of your troubles: it's the fact that you're wearing a three-button jacket with a low gorge, resulting in short stubby lapels. Horrible look on anyone.

As others indicated, it's tough to tell from the angle and with the accessory, but from what I see it looks like you need to come down at least one size. Shoulders look comic-book large on you. Sleeves also appear too long. Spend a lot of time in the What are you Wearing Right Now thread, like, at least 6 months, just reading and soaking it all up.

Hrad to tell from that photo but the shoulders look a little big and the sleeves look a bit long.

Yes. And with her arm around the guy, the waist may be too large as well. Generally I'd say it's a size too large.

It looks too big based on what I can see in the pic.
